← Back to context Comment by cwillu 7 months ago Pretty much any circular saw made in the last twenty years has a brake. 2 comments cwillu Reply throw0101a 7 months ago Yes, but braking is not instantaneous. IIRC, the blade will spin for 2-3 seconds (instead of possible 10 without any brake).It's possible that the guard would close faster than the spin would stop. cwillu 7 months ago It's pretty fast: my bosch stops in about half a second.
