I’m putting an addition on a home with red brick siding on the lower half of the exterior walls. I need to neetly cut this brick so we can join the new structure.

Thinking of just getting a cheap diamond blade for my circular saw 2 do the job. I’m pretty sure this will work out ok?

Has anybody any experiance with any diamond blades on 7” circ saws?

I was thinking something like this one

Do you have one close by? If so get the cheapest one they have and you're good.

If no HF nearby try Ebay.

Same advice, something cheap like this one

That'll cut red brick like butter.

I ordered the one from Amazon and it works great. flies through the brick and cement like butter.

Shipping was 5 bucks so I think it cost me total $25

Wish I would have checked back and found your reply I would have tried the $5 blade. oh well.
