HeadExam 1,783 #1 Posted July 7, 2018 I have a section of sidewalk and patio that are cracked/broken and need cut out and repoured, so i took that as a reason to buy this 1978 Homelite XL-98C at 70.00. It wasn't much more than the rental would have been, so I get another old saw for the collection and force myself to repair the concrete 2 nigel and Stormin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I never knew what they were called, I heard them called concrete saws, but I've seen ride on concrete saws too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wristpin 400 #4 Posted July 8, 2018 Another example of different terminology from across the pond! Not just for concrete or stone, with the correct disc, steel and other metals as well. 1 HeadExam reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not just for concrete or stone, with the correct disc, steel and other metals as well. Hence the term, multipurpose. I've used similar on concrete and steel. As you said Angus, they can bite. You need to keep a good grip on them. 1 HeadExam reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
