Zero Clearance Curcular Saw


I have come across a problem, that is I am going to need to remove a random plank oak flooring the problem the cabinets were set over the floor.
I need to flush cut the old floor at the base of the cabinets. I have only 4 1/2 inches to work under. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
Joe

It's called a Toe-Kick Saw, made by Craine. They can be rented in some rental shops.

Been there done that. It's dangerous, but I put a small thin blade that I believe was made by Black and Decker in a Makita 4" angle grinder without the guard and ran it almost flush to the kicks. You lose the thickness of the outter nut on the grinder shaft, easily covered by shoe moulding.

Thanks I was going to try that, but I have seen a couple of guys get hurt doing that. Some of the guys on line have told me about and toe plate saw. That will do the trick.

Again thanks
