  • Publication number: 20230182219
    Abstract: Plunge saws with cut indicators and methods of operating plunge saws are disclosed herein. The plunge saws include a motor and an arbor, which is configured to operatively attach a circular saw blade to the plunge saw and to receive a torque from the motor. The plunge saws also include a base plate and a base plate pivot. The plunge saws further include a plunge mechanism, which is configured to be selectively actuated, by a user of the plunge saw and during operative use of the plunge saw to cut a workpiece, to transition the plunge saw from a retracted orientation to a plunged orientation and to plunge the circular saw blade into the workpiece. The plunge saws also include a cut indicator, which is configured to project a light line onto the workpiece to visually indicate, on the workpiece, a location of an edge of the circular saw blade.
