Why choose the Dremel Blueprint 12V system?
Most tool collections grow one charger and one battery type at a time. Blueprint works the other way round: the Portable Saw Station, Compact Saw, Multi-Drill and Project Multi-Tool all run on the same Dremel 12V battery. Buy the tool you need for today's project, and the battery you already own powers the next one. Every Blueprint tool is designed for the jobs that come up most in a typical home, and packs away without needing a garage or workshop. That's what sets Blueprint apart from Dremel's DIY range, a broader catalogue of specialist tools such as rotary tools, engravers and the corded Moto-Saw, many with their own power source.
Portable Saw Station: a compact alternative to a mini table saw or small mitre saw
If you've been looking at a mini table saw or a small mitre saw, the Blueprint Portable Saw Station covers the cuts most home projects need, in one carry case. The 12V brushless Compact Saw clicks into a guided track that keeps it level for straight cuts. The mitre guide clicks into common angles, bevel risers set up 45° cuts on trim, a rip fence handles lengthwise cuts, and an alignment laser shows exactly where the blade will cut.
The included carbide multi-material blade cuts wood, laminate, plastic and non-ferrous metals such as aluminium and copper. For the cleanest finish on timber, a dedicated Blueprint wood blade is available separately.
Cutting capacity
Maximum cutting depth: 25.4 mm at 90° and 15.9 mm at 45°.

The best saw for laminate flooring, skirting boards and trim?
For flooring and trim work around the home, the Portable Saw Station is built for exactly these jobs:
- Laminate and vinyl flooring: straight cross cuts to length, and rip cuts for the last row against the wall.
- Skirting boards and architraves: mitre cuts for internal and external corners, bevel cuts for a tight fit.
- Picture rail and dado rail: accurate, repeatable angles along long runs — a popular job in period homes.
- Frames, shelving and feature walls: clean mitres for frames and consistent lengths for slats and battens.
What the Portable Saw Station isn't designed for
We'd rather you buy the right tool. The Portable Saw Station is made for trim, flooring and boards up to about 25 mm thick. It isn't a replacement for a full-size site saw for structural timber, framing or cutting large sheet material. For intricate curved cuts in thin material, Dremel's corded Moto-Saw scroll saw from the DIY range is the better fit.
Complete your Blueprint kit
Compact Saw: the brushless 12V saw from the Saw Station as a standalone handheld saw, with alignment laser, for quick straight cuts wherever you're working.
Multi-Drill: a 3-in-1 drill with a built-in stud finder and detachable laser level, so shelves, TVs and frames go up straight and in the right place.
Project Multi-Tool: cuts, sands, scrapes and removes grout with quick blade changes and an application selector that sets the right speed for you.
