    ye, but be careful . They have a habit of the guard blocking up with dust and jumping back at you. My uncle had one jump back and guard jammed and he went up the middle of his finger with it.

    Once it jumps back once you will learn. Make sure you dont have hand holding product within 12" or so the saw and keep your hand pushing on the back of it so that if it kicks you stop it.

    I used my exaxt saw last week to plunge cut a socket in a bespoke wall panel, it snagged and skidded down the panel!

    No it was an expensive glittery wet wall panel, luckily the fixed illuminated mirror covered the scuff mark! phew!*
