Worm drives are almost always used by right handed pros (especially framers/rough carpenters), the motor is to the right of the blade, the cut line is plainly visible to the left of the blade. The vids above explain this, but of course we all have our personal preferences. If I(right handed) had only one saw it would be a corded 7 1/4" worm drive, preferably a light weight model. It's been a while, years,(retired licensed contractor) since I've been on job sites, so maybe preferences have changed, don't really know.
