I once hired (rented) a small electric chainsaw (Milwaukee if it
matters) at a hire shop in London to cut down a rather runty lila
tree. We could have done it in 5 minutes with a bucksaw -- if they
had bucksaws there, but I didn't see any at the local store and my
SIL wanted to do it with a chainsaw so that's what we did.


I use a 4' Sandvik bucksaw.had it for about 25 years now, doesn't get used
that often here in suburbia, but it's better than any electric chainsaw. Dad
used to sell Jonsered back in the era when they made descent chainsaws.
