I use the bench circular saw KS 115 from Proxxon with the diamond blade NO 28 012 with good sucess. This little saw is having an adaptor to connect a vacum cleaner to it and by doing so dust and dirt remains within limits. The saw is definately not made to cut 50 boards a day but should do fine for hobby use. The saw is not that expensive. A little web search showed that it's aparently ~$130. The diamod blade is a bit pricey ($35) but definately worth it. www.proxxon.com HTH Markus
