My son is in kindergarten and is doing very well with the skilsaw. It teaches the importance of hand/eye coordination to the extreme

Don't forget the skilsaw! It makes you a skilled carpenter at the push of a button 😂

Inspired by her spinning wheel, Babbitt developed a saw that could cut continuously, using all the energy to for cutting wood, rather than half going to returning the saw to the start position.
Tabitha Babbitt invented the circular saw.

As someone who swings a hammer for a living I can authoritatively say FUCK NO, we do not need to be training 10 year olds on how to use a Skilsaw, table saw or rotohammer.

BASH: One of the things that's happening is there's a push to start students down a trade school track as early as elementary school. Is that too early?
LINDA McMAHON: I don't think so
BASH: But elementary school?
McMAHON: I think you can have some introduction of skilled trades in elementary

same is true of power tools, I recently bought a couple thousand bucks of power drills/saws/etc and they’re amazing. the battery circular saw is about as powerful and weighs less than the skilsaw I used in college

I used to work for an old timer who had a skilsaw he bought new in 1975. He was still using it in 2015.
Last year one part on my woodchipper broke, and the company sent me a whole new machine instead of a replacement part.

"Hmm... Yes, yes, yes, I see your problem. See, your feng is fine but your shui is all schlumpnutty. I'll need a plumb bob, a skilsaw, my usual 500 almond fee, and a minimum four-star review on Yelp."

Dudes will spend all day warning the new guy about workplace safety practices then go home and use the vintage skilsaw with a rusted on blade and gnarly electrical arcing that they found on the side of the road to rip apart pallets (i am dudes)

I won't be able to keep all of my power tools when I go tiny
I'll keep...(still considering)...
3/8" drill
orbital sander
belt sander
sabre saw (jigsaw)
wyrm-drive Skilsaw
Dremel
Compressor and nail/brad guns
With this I can build a tiny shed, tiny house, repair things, do hobbies

It is 1000% impossible to underestimate the impact of the circular saw blade. I'm dead serious. Modern construction is built around it. The miter saw, the skilsaw, and the grinder are ubiquitous on modern job sites and they all are built on Tabitha's work!!

One of my neighbors has been slowly, laboriously building cages to garden in because it is impossible to grow anything on this block that our übersquirrels will not demolish. And between his skilsaw and the two dogs that go nuts every time he uses it, I am ready to call in a mortar round.

First time using a skilsaw in two years, after a decade+ as a carpenter, using one every day.
I was afraid my cuts would be crooked, or that my skills were rusty. But nope, perfect cuts, every time.
Feels pretty good.

my garage flooded and I had left a skilsaw on the floor, plugged in. I picked it up and felt a weird buzzing sensation travelling up my arm.
I am still alive.

my guy installed a too-small window by shrinking down the opening with 2x4 scraps attached with like 40 fasteners apiece. had to cut them to ribbons with a skilsaw and wrench them out with a pry bar to get a proper sized window in

This is like when I went to my neighbor's house and stole his driveway and children, then asked to borrow his Skilsaw. He said no!
