My
tabletop circular saw for cutting PCB material and whatnot has finally arrived!

It's got everything it must have, including a vacuum hose attachment.
Just like the
mini drill press, this saw is clearly built down to a price, but at the same time it was designed by someone who knew how to do it properly so as not to compromise the actual usability and allow for an easy repair and upgrade, should it be needed.
I've already cut some boards, and oh boy, what a vast improvement over doing it by hand, you can't even compare.
The PSU is quite a brick -- at least on the outer dimensions -- and notice that they used a generic case sold for DIY stuff, suggesting that it's manufactured in small batches. I haven't yet looked inside it, but probably I should. It didn't blow up on first use though, so it should be fine I guess.

p.s. the sticker on the saw case says "rated power: 96 W", so no, the motor is not a 240 W one, but that's fine and is enough for small hobby stuff. You wouldn't want to use it for thick wood or metal or any heavy work anyway.
up: 5200 RPM on the saw disk without load. The sticker says 5000 RPM. The motor is nominal 12000 RPM (I didn't measure it).
