We just call them "demo" saws. Like demolition saws or Cutoff saws.
Have a big old 14" or 12" wheel on the front, run on two cycle, and will throw enough dust cutting concrete, to kinda take the fun out of it.

The kits are nice but I wonder how many of those machines get cussed, slammed, thrown in the dumspter over that one wire, I bet its been many....

I've done alot of bailing wire and duct tape repairs to get boats back to shore, job sites finished, hell even rebuilt a Jeep on the trail head with two busted axles (not shafts two tires/knuckles/bearing/etc ripped off the truck) with not much more than that, but I've not seen someone attempt some silly repair such as that over $6 worth of parts.
Had that let loose, the clutch blown apart, junk the saw.

That unit was the FS110 in the pic of the three I posted eariler without guards. I guess cutting 30 inch paths is hard on clutch springs,LOL
All three are now ready to go take some more abuse. My abuse to the owner will be handing him da bill and saying thats whatcha get for being stupid and yes I will indeed say just that. Maybe it will wake him up, if not I'll keep taking his money untill he finally ruins those units altogether. Then I'll sell him more to go out and ruin. Really I should be liking this customer huh,hahaha

I don't think you're taking into account the need for a piece of equipment to work now, not a day from now, not two hours from now, but NOW. If you were finishing up on a big job for a good customer, and your cheesy high priced weed smacker quit on you, wouldn't you throw a bailing wire spring on there to get the job done on time and without having to come back? I know what my answer would be.

The guy made 3 of 'em quit, there comes a time when you stop to have a professional look at the first 2 that quit, not keep on going and kill the 3rd.:biggrinbounce2:
