The body saw is not a bad tool. It has come in handy for some specific tasks but like GW said,
The blades don't last for ****e, I even went online and bought some "super heavy duty" ones... what a joke.
Wont cut a straight line to save your life (although the fatter blades you can buy do a slightly better job but then wont turn a corner).

I ve had the same blade in my body saw for 2 months. Buy a good blades and you wont have a problem. Starett are the only blades I ve found that last.

Good info! I'll hit Fastenal on Tuesday.

I've been buying "whatever" brands... and they're crappola.

Ditto! I'll get me some of those Staretts!
