A horizontal sawing machine includes a support unit, a driving unit, and a sawing unit. The support unit has a slide rail base with two oppositely disposed stationary slide rails. The driving unit has a driving motor, a reducing gear box, and two oppositely disposed movable slide rails. The reducing gear box is connected to the driving motor and has an output shaft. The movable slide rails are provided on the outer periphery of the reducing gear box and are respectively engaged with the stationary slide rails to enable forward and backward movement of the driving unit with respect to the support unit. The sawing unit has a saw blade and a saw blade mount connected between the bottom end of the output shaft and the saw blade so that the saw blade is rotatable by and movable forward and backward along with the driving unit to facilitate operation.

In various embodiments, a splitter profiler apparatus may include at least one profiler head and at least one circular saw mounted to a common arbor. The circular saw may be mounted to a saw arm, and the saw arm may be coupled with an actuator that is selectively operable to move the circular saw along the arbor. The circular saw may be used in a profiling position, in which the circular saw and profiler head are in close proximity, such that the profiler head and circular saw function collectively to form a sideboard edge with a sawn finish. The circular saw may also be used in a splitting position, in which the circular saw is at a distance from the profiler, to divide the sideboard into narrower sideboards before the sideboards are sawn from the primary workpiece. Corresponding methods and systems are also described herein.

A portable zero clearance circular saw including a motor frame portion with a transverse oriented drive shaft and arbor coupled to the drive shaft, a handle portion with a hand grip coupled to the motor frame portion aft end, a planar blade deck on a first lateral side, a movable blade shield rotatably mounted coaxial with the drive shaft and having a sidewall with a edge face coplanar with the blade deck, a trigger proximate the hand grip to move the blade shield, and a blade couplable to the drive shaft against the arbor, such that the blade outer surface is flush with the blade deck and blade shield sidewall. The handle portion may be rotatably coupled to the motor frame portion, and may include two laterally disposed blade shield triggers operably coupled to the blade shield via a dual pulley system.
