OK. I've read the FAQ. I need^H^H^H^H^ want a circular saw for my birthday. The excuse is that I'm going to be fitting some oak doors this year, and I will need to trim them to fit. I *have* done this with a table saw in the past - but a full size door is really two big for my table saw. A saw (+ sawboard) should give as good (or better) finish, with a lot less risk.
I was thinking of something like the Makita 5704RK (which Screwfix have for =A390, and I can probably find slightly cheaper elsewhere). (No real basis for that choice, except that I recognize the Makita name.)
I would be grateful for any recommendations (both for and against), thoughts on what to look for, pointers to good deals, etc
