Skilsaw’s new 7 1/4-inch Sidewinder Circular Saw for Fiber Cement directs silica dust away from the motor and operator for longer tool life and cleaner work spaces. The dust collection system’s bladeguard extension and channel funnel dust to an included vacuum hose, where it can be collected by a jobsite vac. Sealed bearings and a sealed switch protect the saw’s internal workings from dust; a no-mar sleeve protects the cord and hose from fiber cement’s abrasive cut edges. Cost: $200. skilsaw.com
