Power saws are widely used machine tools with varied types and categories. Primarily, there are three types of power saw based on its blade: Power saw with a rotating blade, power saw with reciprocating blade, power saw with circulating blade.
It offers more portability than most of the other type of power saw as it requires less space and can fit anywhere. It is used for both professional as well as DIY workshops. Its main purpose is cutting wood and other soft materials (with appropriate blades it can also be used to cut metal and other hard surfaces). Its working principle is quite opposite to the table saw. It can be used even on a longitudinal piece of wood where the table saw can be used. Though there is an issue with precision if straight edges or guide rails are not priorly set.
Different Types of Circular Saws & Their Uses
Worm Drive Circular Saws
Its motor is mounted on the saw’s back making it a more long and thin than other sidewinders. It is easier to use it in wider boards. It gives you a better line of sight with its arrangement while cutting. It is one of the most durable best circular saw.
Sidewinder (In-Line) Circular Saws
This is more compact, lightweight and runs faster than worm drive circular saw because the motor is aligned with the blade.
Hypoid Circular Saws

It is used in the table for cutting metal and tile, and freehand for cutting concrete, pipe, asphalt, etc. While cutting metal sheets it produces heat making it harder to cut because of the expansion of both the materials.

Concrete Circ Saws / Grinders
It is used for cutting solid materials. Motor use fuel or electricity, pressurized or hydraulic. It can use varied types of blade depending upon the material to be cut, and if it requires water or not. Its speed determines the life of blade faster it runs less the life of the blade.
Flip-over Saws
This saw can be used as a table saw and mitre saw (crosscuts at a precise angle)both. It is much compact and can cut by handling all the multitudes.
