Default pneumatic sabre saw


Anyone know anything about these units, or can recommend a better one? Do
they take the standard sawsall blades?

For pruning an apple orchard? Ya, get a small gas chainsaw, and a good
pair
of pruning shears.



I maybe should elaborate a bit. I prune 30 hours a week with a two or three
man crew. Mostly with air power pruning shears run off a portable air
compressor on the tractor.

Large cuts are done with a small chain saw. I go through ahead of the main
crew and make the major cuts.

About once every five trees there is a branch a bit too big for the shear.
Its very handy to just gab the sawsall. The 24 volt electric is not quite up
to the task.

Seems to me that it would be possible to have an air power saw.
