Continuing today’s cordless metalworking theme, here’s a cordless 6-1/2″ metal circ saw from Panasonic. It runs at 2,900 RPM and draws power from an 18V 3.5 Ah battery. It also features a wrap-around blade guard with a transparent window at the front so you can see what you’re cutting.
This isn’t by any means a new tool — PopSci mentioned it last year, I believe — but it’s surprising how few people we run into that’ve heard of it. What makes this particular impact driver special is its microprocessor controlled digital clutch, which automatically shuts the drill off when the screw’s been tightened about 1/2 turn — just enough to bring it flush in wood.
