I got 30 + ryobi tools and will continue to buy. The saws though got a major plastic problem(my opinion) It`s really hard to make strights long cuts. So I use Milwaukee M12 saw for precision cuts and Ryobi for ripping. Brushless Ryobi got more then enough power to rip through every thing. I use the 9 A battery for that kind of work. Ryobi tools love big batteries.

Awesome《☆》I just got the Ryobi 6 tool set for my Sons Christmas gift👍✔It's got the 5-1/2" saw included. I'll be giving to him tomorrow. I'm feeling more confident about the choice now🖖🤓🙏☮

I watched a different review on the new HP circular saw. What I didn’t like was the Ryobi did not put their sawdust ejection port on the side of the blade housing, unlike most of Ryobi’s competitors. The sawdust was kind of being blown back into your face. Also when you attach the vacuum dust collector to the saw, the safety blade cover rotates and covers the sawdust extraction port. I don’t think Ryobi thought this one through completely.

Thanks for the idea for a second video on this!

[@DamionJR4923]

I like the weight of the 5.5 saw. I put a new Diablo blade in it and it cuts well just don’t push it to hard. I have an 18 volt Milwaukee I use for most things.

[@bobsmoot2392]

You need to let the blade reach full RPM before touching the wood. Greatly stresses the tool, with contact startup.

[@coppertopv365]

Be neat if they made them Hybrid like the Fan i got so it can take a battery or an Extension cord..

[@izziereal2010]

Will you compare the New brushless circular saw with the old Ryobi brushless circular saw P508? Great video.

[@Weekendhandyman]

Great idea! Thanks!! I will get to that this next week!

[@sifusays9242]

Never push a saw always let the blade do the work .

[@WTF_BBQ]

I don't like the blade orientation of the new one. Feels awkward even though I'm right handed.

[@Weekendhandyman]

I found I REALLY like to see the blade on these smaller saws... Going back to my old circular saw was almost like going backwards and took a bit to get used to once again.

[@dangrimes5078]

You mean you prefer the blade on the right side?

[@artest7]

Which (out of Ryobi’s 5.5” or 6 1/2”) circular saw do you think is best for someone doing a cargo trailer conversion (cutting straight 12’ trim, cabinets, etc..). I DONT have a table saw or miter saw) btw. Thanks to anyone who can answer!

[@MarcusV741]

Any of the two models will do.. try the 5.5 first because it is included in great packages or set... But if you already have the battery and other tools, go for the 6 1/2

[@gregjones3660]

I like how Transit thinks

[@sifusays9242]

A good craftsman can do good work with any saw .It just might take longer

[@user-gj2dg9sk1w]

i prefer a saw with the blade on the left for 7 1/4

[@badtolz2122]

The smaller kit saw is garbage. Not sure why they even sell it.

[@mat_a.c.d.evloganstuff3917]

Ahh so ur a ryobi guy as well

[@Weekendhandyman]

Craftsman, Ryobi, DeWalt, Makita.. I have a bit of most all in my work areas.. :)
