I saw a Woodcraft 4.5" circular saw on homedepot website. It promises to cut 2 by X wood, and can be used with a guide. Does anyone have experiance with mini circular saws? The woodcraft saw is around$70 and a 4ft track for it is about $40. With Christmass around the corner I want to see if its worth adding to the list.

I find myself cutting 1" and under wood constantly and getting the 10" circular to cut just right is a pain, plus its a heavy sob and wants to wander. A track saw is out due to cost/benefit.

Thanks.
