The invention relates to a separating device which is used for machining of workpieces, preferably workpieces made from wood, wood materials, insulating materials or composite materials.

A cutting device, including: a handle rotatable about a central axis; and at least one blade attached to the handle, a cutting edge of the at least one blade is at a first distance from the central axis; wherein the handle comprises an opening around the central axis configured to accommodate a protruded part on a surface to be cut. A method of using the cutting device is also disclosed.

A fluid-driven ring saw includes a ring saw blade that is supported and driven by a fluid. The fluid-driven ring saw can include one or more pairs of fluid nozzles. Each pair of fluid nozzles can include a first fluid nozzle separated from a second fluid nozzle by a gap. The ring blade can be positioned within the gap. The ring blade can include a plurality of holes. The one or more pairs of fluid nozzles can deliver fluid jets that impinge upon the plurality of holes of the ring blade to drive rotation of the ring blade. The ring blade can be driven without direct contact of a mechanical linkage, such as a belt or chain. The ring blade can be relatively thinner than ring blades driven by mechanical linkages.

A work tool (100) comprising: a cutting chain (110), a drive mechanism for driving the cutting chain (110), an annular member (120) arranged rotatably supported by one or more support rollers (130,140,150), wherein the annular member comprises a rim (230) adapted to support the cutting chain (110) during cutting, and a support wheel (160) arranged distanced from the annular member (120), wherein the cutting chain (110) is arranged supported on a rim segment (102) of the annular member (110) forming part of a cutting area of the tool (100) and supported on a rim segment (103) of the support wheel (160) in a direction away from the cutting area of the tool (100). An annular member and a method of producing an annular member are also disclosed.
