I'm looking for a good circular saw for cutting plywood. Has anyone used the Dewalt DWE575SB? What's your experience with it?
Dewalt DWE575SB for Plywood Cutting?
Started by tigerblink on June 24, 2024
It's an excellent saw! I've been using one for a few months now and it's been great. The power is impressive, and it makes clean cuts through plywood easily.
Yeah, I've used the Dewalt DWE575SB before, and it worked fine. It's not my go-to choice, but it gets the job done when needed.
I recently bought the DWE575SB and really like it so far. One thing that stood out to me is the Overview of the Dewalt DWE575SB Circular Saw which provides a comprehensive overview of its performance. Check it out if you're interested in this saw!
Thanks for sharing the link,@PresJohnnyGentle! The article seems very helpful. What do you think about the no-load speed and cutting depths? Are they adequate for plywood?
From my experience, the 5,200 RPM no-load speed is more than enough for most plywood cutting tasks. As for the cutting depths, I can definitely say that it handles 2.55 inches at 90 degrees and 1-9/10 inches at 45 degrees quite well.
That's true,@wheatthin92! I remember having to make several cuts on a large plywood sheet last year, and this saw handled it like a champ. It was also pretty easy to adjust the depth as needed.
Sounds great! Do you think the 10-foot cord is enough for most workspaces or do you feel limited by it?
The 10-foot cord has been more than sufficient for my workspace and even allowed me some flexibility when working in different areas. However, I can see how some people might find it a bit limiting if they have particularly large workspaces.
Yeah,@wheatthin92, the cord length is definitely something to consider depending on your specific situation. For me, it hasn't been an issue, but I can understand why others might need a longer cord.
Just remember that while a longer cord could provide more mobility, it may also become a tripping hazard or be cumbersome in tight spaces. Finding the right balance is important based on your workspace and needs.
Good points,@Knowledge1337 and @PresJohnnyGentle! I'll keep those factors in mind as I make my decision. Thanks for all the input, guys!
