Hello all.

I have a fair bit of annual tree pruning to do. Also, i have a one-off
job of cutting up a


load of old decking to a size that will fit the car or the burn bin. It
occurred to

me that a cordless reciprocating saw might be a good tool.

I'm willing to spend up to around 100 quid, but don't€‹ want to go OTT
for the use


I'll get out of it. What do people think of the Ryobi One 18v at 60-odd
quid? Alternatives?

I have a petrol chainsaw and it pains me not to get more use out of
it, but it's


overkill for most jobs and the faff of mixing the fuel

Get a mixing bottle. Makes it a doddle.


(and disposing of old fuel

after long periods of inactivity)

Isn't there a grate hole outside your house?

is a major down side. I also don't fancy catching

a nail or screw in the decking with it!

Cheers.

Terry.

You'll be disappointed. Get a mains powered one.

This thing is pretty damned fast on green timber. Don't think I paid
that much for it though
