Greetings

I have a renovation project for the office (third bedroom) in
mind, which involves "First, cut a large hole in the drywall.."* I've
a number of means for doing that, but I would like to kind of minimize
the dust. My options for cutting are
Chain Saw. {Maybe not the best idea, but it is 'an idea'.}
Corded circular saw
Battery powered Circ Saw.
Reciprocating saw.
Roto-zip or Dremel,
"Oscillating Multi-tool"
Hatchet,
Drywall Saw
Razor knife.

I suppose I could remove the clothing and "stuff" from the closet
first, but where's the fun in that?

* the idea is to cut a hole in the wall to allow a lot of "extra
space" at the top of the closet to get a 'decking' laid down, making
for more storage space,with better access. It was done in the older
part of the house, why not bin the add on?

Measure with a micrometer. Mark with chalk.. Cut with an axe.
