Editor's Review: Tool Test: Sidewinder Circular Saws

by Michael Springer review date: January 19, 2012

Ridgid’s latest iteration of its full-size sidewinder saw boasts some mid-generation improvements—hence the new, longer model number. The depth-adjustment arm on this saw has a nice, stiff rolled edge and ratcheting plastic outboard lever. Bevel angles up to 56° are set with a similar lever, engraved numbers mark every degree, and beveling beyond 45° is done with the push of a button. The cast-magnesium baseplate is nearly flat in both directions, and it has a convenient 1-1⁄2-in. offset distance from the right edge of the baseplate to the blade. The rear handle and trigger are both comfortable, and the sawdust blower chute works well.
