Great to see how you made the best of less than ideal conditions. Amy is a trooper! you might want to give Rodian a bit of a shout out. He was the guy who pointed out how good you were at pick and dip some time ago and sent a bunch of us your way - and I am mighty pleased he did. . He has just discovered that his Mrs has a spinal tumour and they are have a pretty rough time of it. Sending a few folk his way would help him out, as YouTubing is his only source of income. He has to care for his wife in between chemo treatments, which rules out working for the man. Cheers Charlie.

[@fennwoodfinden4063]

What blade are you using in your skil saw?

[@shifty277]

It looks to be the standard 24 tooth blade that comes with the saw meant for wood. However they will have no problem going through these celcons it's just maybe wearing the battery out a bit quicker than cutting wood and the blade won't stay as sharp for long as it would when just cutting wood. These 24 tooth battery saw blades are anything from £10-£15 and will probably last Charlie 6 month so no dramas

[@danfenton89]

Hi Charlie, good video as always , theres nothing worst than going to site wanting to start work and nothing ready , people doing monday clubs and then there moaning on a friday that they only got 4 days pay , am a bricklayer on isle of man didn't realise how much I miss it especially with lockdown here with building work and sites shut down dure to are second lockdown, keep up the good work 👍

[@paulperrin2152]

probably as long as they ain't too dense and heavy - the blocks Charlie is cutting are roughly 7kg a block if they are standard grade 100mm celcons.

Charlie if you get the chance I would much appreciate it if you tell me what type of blade you're using in that circular saw

[@shifty277]

its just a normal 24 tooth 165mm circular saw blade. You can get 165mm ones with less teeth that cut a bit quicker and leave a little less cleaner cut - but you don't need the smooth cut on these. Search on screwfix you can get a Bosch 165mm 12 tooth one for £26 it will rip through celcons and thermos.
