The circular saw has a toothed blade shaped like a wheel on a center post to cut many different types of materials.

A miter saw can be maneuvered to cut at different angles (generally between 0-45º)

A floor standing bandsaw is used to rip boards into thinner pieces, make intricate or curved cuts into wood, or cut pipes and tubes.

A jigsaw is designed specifically for cutting curves or other non-straight lines.

A table saw is one of the easiest saws for making long, straight, ripping, or repetitive cuts.

There are too many saws to list in this one story, including quite a few hand saws that are helpful to have in your wood shop. Visit my blog post to learn about more tools you should consider picking up!
