Let's cut to the chase.
I've been to the movie, don't want the T-Shirt.
You need a "Contractor Generator" which isd a 10HP engine, 5,000W
generator, probably $500-$600 range.
You need #10AWG extension cords, 100 ft MAX for the chop saw.
Use the other cord for the drill. (The generator has a duplex receptacle)
At the end of the day, the job will be done, your tools will be in the
truck, in working order, ready to do the same thing all over tomorrow.
