Big Foot Tools 10 1/4 Circular Saw Magnesium Worm Drive Saw Beam Saw with Skil Motor - Professional PowerSaw for One Pass Precision Cutting and Durability - BF-UG - SC-1025SU

It’s a beast of a saw A little intimidating at first, it’s like holding an upside down table, saw in your hand, but you soon get over that feeling and you realize what a magnificent beast this is. I cut many hemlock three by sixes with precision and little effort. A very good saw.

This Big Foot saw is a quality made in USA tool. The engineering and manufacturing quality is obvious when you get it out of the box and use for the first time. The saw works great for cutting oversized wood. the plate is perfectly square to the blade so the cuts are perfect. If a carpenter cuts a lot of 4x4, 4x6, 4x8 and up this is the saw to get. I called on a minor issue and they actually answered the phone and resolved the blade issue in a few minutes. If all the companies on Amazon were this good fewer products would get returned

Big Foot Tools is a great company with excellent service. Dino provides top notch service. My first Big Foot was purchased over 20 years ago and it was still running strong and somehow disappeared over the last year. So I purchased the newer Big Foot model which is improved over the previous model in many ways. The Big Foot far surpasses what the Sawsquatch provides as it is lighter, more well-balanced, has a wider table, and comes with a much better Big Foot blade. The Sawsquatch comes with a POS Diablo 40 tooth blade that will wobble and if you are ripping, do a really bad job leaving the top side somewhat straight and the bottom cut really wavy; whereas a Big Foot blade, are best in the market for these larger beam saws! I ripped a bunch of headers down with the Big Foot & Big Foot blade in place and cut straight on both sides perfectly! The Big Foot also cuts at a 90 degree angle depth of 3-7/8” where the Sawsquatch cuts 3-5/8”, both cut the same at a 45 at 2-3/4”. Both saws are made in China; however, the Big Foot is assembled in the USA. Big Foot has is 5300rpm where Sawsquatch is 4700rpm, which may be the only thing the Sawsquatch might (apparently the lower RPMs are too cut through the material better) have over the Big Foot; however, I have had no bogging down problems with the Big Foot saw at the 5300 RPMs. They also both cut up to a 51° angle. You can buy an accessory for the Big Foot though in which you remove the table and add a 75° table which you cannot do with the Sawsquatch! You can purchase a 24” Big Foot rip guide to use with the Super Sawsquatch or the Big Foot.

Great timber framing saw. Solid and stable. Much easier to handle than I remembered. Cuts through a 4x4 like butter. The worm drive motor doesn't jerk and twist the saw like some do. The thumb hold for the blade guard is a little small, but, workable. The 90 degree set screw needed adjustment and required "Thread Lock" to keep it in place. I love it.

I purchased this saw to cut heavy timbers for a timber frame project.It is a powerful saw with a great cutting capacity, but it needs some design changes. -The base shoe is very narrow, making it difficult to get a square cut close to the end of a beam. -The bottom of the shoe was not machined smooth or flat, again making it difficult to square with the blade. -When making a full depth cut, the lower blade guard will not open as you cut, you must flip it up with your finger on the lever. That said, I still think it is a useful saw. I'm also going to be using it to cut I-joists and 6x6 deck posts.

beyond great framer , mucho torque , my boyfreind luvs it . works fantastic with the Big Foot blades . We would definitely recommend and most certainly buy again .

Title: Poor Quality Control and Worse Customer Support I really wanted to like this saw, but it’s been nothing but a headache. Right out of the box, my Bigfoot 10.25” circular saw had alignment issues. I sent it back to Bigfoot for repair, and when it came back, the same problem persisted — clearly no quality control. After complaining again, they agreed to send me a replacement. The new saw made one good cut before the same alignment issue appeared on the second. When I reached out again, Bigfoot told me they couldn’t help anymore and to deal with Amazon (even though it was through the Bigfoot store). Now I’m out nearly $400 with a saw that doesn’t work and a company that’s washing its hands of the issue. Really disappointing. Thanks, Bigfoot.

Iam using it to make squared off end cuts on slab wood dining tables, plenty of power and very rigid construction.

Excelente maquina!! Tuve problemas con entender lo del diamond arbor pero no tuvo nada que ver con el funcionamiento. Hasta ahora solo he hecho cortes leves, falta someterla a trabajo pesado pero se percibe el poder, espero que todo se mantenga bien en esas condiciones.

😉👍

The saw took blades that were hard to source and then we cooked the motor in our second month on the job with it.
