I think your take is slightly off here. I don't think it's meant to be for people looking for a track saw, that can also be used as a circular saw, but rather the exact opposite - people who need a circular saw for day to day work, but want the option of running it on a track from time to time for more repeatable straight cuts. Think customers of the kreg accucut style devices, but a more integrated setup. Still a great video and review!

@hyangsilgoodall3139 6 күн бұрын

Great thoughts on this. I think Skil did a pretty good job of "knowing their customers" in this case. They are generally DIYers and homeowners looking for a high quality but low cost solution. This saw is capable of being a general construction saw, but with a good finish blade, can also do much of what a track saw does in general. Skil (and their parent Chervon) are really good at delivering high quality at a price point.

I bought saw (tool only, no track) a few months ago. I shortly after got the rip fence. I was wondering if they planned to make some kind of track when I bought it, but did not see it anywhere at the time. This video pretty much stated all the reasons I purchased the saw and would buy the track. I have a few Skil 20volt. Like them and good price. Pretty much starting to replace my aging Craftsman 19.2 volt with these.

Its about time someone did this! I breakdown sheet goods only a couple of times a year and its tough on a jobsite tablesaw with no garage. Would love if this became a market changer. Not interested in getting into yet another battery platform

@sociopathmercenary 5 ай бұрын

I'm in the same boat. I'm only breaking down sheet goods occasionally. I just pull out a couple folding tables, throw a sacrificial sheet of insulation on them, then use a straight edge and clamps with my regular circular saw. Takes a little longer but accuracy is great if you're careful.

@barttrahan7037 5 ай бұрын

Helpful tip. Get some grip tape and put it on the bottom of the track on both sides. Makita has a 36 volt. DeWalt has a but it is only sold in Europe. Hikoki is coming out with one also only available in Europe

I have the skil power core 12v and love them. While its not a ton of power on the circular saw the drill and impact driver have plenty of power. The biggest win in my book is the cost of not only the tools but the batteries.

Agreed! I have almost the full line plus two of the multi volt tower lights and I have absolutely no complaints. I use them professionally too.

@mikewatson4644 5 ай бұрын

Me 3. I got the 12v line thinking they would weigh less. They surprised me with their power (don't have the circular saw) but the drill and impact driver almost always do the job. I had a screw that I couldn't finish driving and had to get me 20v impact driver. I tried the 20v on the first 2 of 3 settings and it didn't drive the screw any deeper. Had to go to the 3rd setting and it did finish setting the screw. Doesn't happen often. Really like the right angle impact driver and the power hammer.

Products like this kill me, but I'm happy it's available. I have the Makita corded(and I'm super happy about that cord) with the long and short track(build a box for those~!~)and love it. I bought it from Tool Nut as well, it's slightly underpowered, but, that's the only complaint, it also cost a whole lot more. Dust collection is superb if you tape over the little window. This would be great for someone starting out, or for breaking down plywood outside. Great review.....

@JamesSmullins 5 ай бұрын

At first I dismissed this due to dust collection but then it dawned on me I would use this outside the shop anyway due to such a small shop so dust collection for this particular tool wouldn't matter. For as often as I'd need it this might be a good option, even when at my real job I don't rip sheet goods often so it would serve me well for occasional use.

@gillie-monger3394 5 ай бұрын

I'm right handed and find my Festool, and most other quality track saws, quite awkward at making edge cuts. Either have to hold the tool with my arm across my body or use it left handed, which I'm awful with. My answer was to buy the Kregg track saw and tracks. The saw is 'right handed', (the motor is on the opposite side to the Festool and most other track saws), this makes edge cutting on long boards fast and easy to use.

@garymiller5937 5 ай бұрын

Thanks 👍 for the honesty in your review Matt! (I'm not the least bit surprised you were honest, because you always are!) I have one question about the track not being anti-slip. Could you attach perhaps like a non-slip sanding mat material or something like that to the bottom of the track without interfering with the functionality of the saw, except for the blade depth being different? I hope I made that clear. I didn't know exactly how to phrase it. I was thinking along the line of contact cement. 😊

Lots of people are sleeping on the Skil cordless line. I have Milwaukee, Ridgid, Ryobi, Hercules and Skil cordless tools, most are Milwaukee but it's just about impossible to stay with one battery platform. Anyway the Skil cordless tools I have are all quality tools. I can't say how well they would handle daily construction abuse but I've liked every one I've purchased. Their 90 degree impact driver out performs my Milwaukee by a fair amount. I'd definitely recommend them to any Prosumer out there. While they don't have the product line depth as Ridgid I'd say they fall into the same category as them.

Adding WEN tracks is another $80 or the better option IMO are the Powertec tracks for $120. I wish they had it or I knew about it before I bought the corded version. If I had to choose between the WEN or the skilsaw I would pick the WEN mainly, because of the track.

Hey Matt, would you sell me your Festool track saw? Lol, I know you wouldn't part with it though. I need a track saw, but I don't think this skil would be a good fit for me. Thanks for reviewing these tools, so we know what to look for or run from. God bless you brother!

I couldn't help but notice the similarities to my FLEX tools. They're owned by the same parent company. I wonder if the batteries/ chargers are interchangeable?

Good thing you didn’t drop that set screw, if you work bench is any like mine it has an invisible portal to Narnia where everything I drop falls into never to be seen again.

This is great for guys who build outdoor decks. Specifically, when they run composite decking long then cut it with a track saw. Why you ask well because with the enclosed track saw (festool type) the plastic from the composite gets caught in the enclosure and stops the blade. Most guys run them with the enclosure open, that's why I feel that the skill track saw will work great as the plastic will not blind on the blade.

I love all these you tube informercials . They are selling pitches for these company’s. The more viewers the more these company’s use these guys to sell there products. Remember the old informercial “just set it and forget it “.😂 The only thing missing here is where is the the toll- free numbers to call.😂😂😂

Most don't know this but Skil and the Flex line are made by same company in China that's why they are similar. Of course Flex is the better made line

@Bobbyg2018 5 ай бұрын

Looks like a good choice for someone with a limited tool budget and that doesn't have a circular saw already. Doesn't seem up to par with the Skil table saw though.

@731Woodworks I am a Makita fan and trying to decide if the 40v track saw is going to be a good option for a 2nd track saw now that the competition has come out with some good ones. You see I cut stone countertops on a regular basis with my currant saw but it does take a toll on them after a while. And now I need a wood only saw.
