A newbie over at the Creek asked about a good circular saw for under $100. He got a lot of good suggestions from the woodworkers at SMC, though some of the suggested saws were well over $100.

There weren’t a boat load of suggestions for him – I’ll be knocking on a few doors to see if I can get a few more “best circs under 100” ideas and see what people think of the list so far.

It’s interesting to note how dang many votes Skil got… what are your thoughts about circular saws under $100?
