Used for .. what sort of carpentry ?
John T.


Most likely post and beam style, heavy timber framing...



OK .. it is Mennonite country here.
if they'd use a generator for the electrical power...


My Dad could have used that when he was building his dock. Instead he
used several throwaway consumer "reciprocating saws" (several as in
he'd buy one, use it until it wore out, get another one, when it wore
out he'd piece together a Frankensaw from the remains of both, when
that wore out . . .) until I got him a Sawzall.
