circular saws
Rotating cutting discs
Circular saws are power tools with round, toothed blades that spin to cut wood, metal, or other materials.
The blade's rotation allows continuous cutting motion, unlike the back-and-forth of a handsaw.
Handheld circular saws are common on job sites; table saws and miter saws are stationary versions built around the same principle.
