What happens here

The presenter introduces the Prazi Beam Cutter, an attachment that converts a standard worm-drive circular saw into a chainsaw-like beam cutter. He shows how the attachment quickly mounts onto a circular saw using just three bolts. The unique feature highlighted is that the chain on the Prazi Beam Cutter rotates in the opposite direction of a typical chainsaw, pulling the saw into the cut rather than pushing it away, which allows for perfectly square, clean cuts on large timbers like 18-inch beams or 14-inch cuts at a 45-degree angle. He demonstrates cutting a stack of wood with the attachment on a Makita 36V cordless circular saw.

Goal: Demonstrate the Prazi Beam Cutter's ability to make deep, square cuts on timber by converting a circular saw

Tools and materials

  • Prazi Beam Cutter Prazi USA — Converting a circular saw into a beam cutter for deep, square cuts
  • Stack of Wood Beams N/A — Demonstrating cutting depth and precision
  • Worm-Drive Circular Saw Makita — The base tool for the Prazi attachment

What they say

Hide

are. Go ahead, Bob. Yeah. Hey, I'm Bob Cummings. I manufacture the Prozy beam cutter. It fits on any worm drive saw. Snaps right on. Three bolts. We make a 12 in and we make an 18 in. This is our big baby. It will cut 18 on a 90. It will cut 14 on a 45. I'm running it off the new Makita cordless 36 volt. When I cut, the chain turns the opposite direction of a chainsaw. So when I go in to cut, it pulls into the cut. You get a perfect square cut every time. Basically, that's it. So you area. [Music]
