Circular saws

Are there circular saws that, with a change of blade, may be used to cut wood and concrete?


I'm not sure about a saw for the concrete. But I cut concrete with a stone disc in an angle grinder.

Sometimes! Most folk frown on this but it is doable with care

1)Best to have a metal blade guard as hot concrete waste embeds itself in plastic guards. 2) most concrete cutting discs (standard or diamond) have 22mm bore but wood sawblades rarely have 22mm so you need an arbor that is 5/8" or 16mm for the wood blade and an adaptor ring for 22mm. 3)Standard concrete discs wear down in diameter so you can use all the material but cheap diamonds from aldi/Lidl when they have them work OK

That looks interesting. May I assume that if it cuts steel it will cut concrete? What does it cost? The buy online facility isn't working.

Yes, diamond blade available. I'd still like to know the cost.

There is a contact page where you can fill out a request form or a phone number. In fact, if you are near Sheffield.....

So there is. Thank you. I still think it's silly of them not to put the prices on their web pages.
