Goodbye chainsaw, hello Sawzall (actually a Bosch). It hadn't occurred to me that a reciprocating saw could be so useful out in the yard.
I have been saving & using all my blades to cut stuff off below ground with my Sawzall for years! Now have 2 huge stumps that are right on the property line that have to go so chain-link can go in, and just got a 5-pack of the most vicious-looking blades ever from Amazon.....Stand back!
Aren't they the best! I have been using mine to cut through roots too.
Sawzall is much more versatile than a chainsaw, cut pretty much anything.
Not too mention those annoying chains that are always jumping and are such a pain to change. It is soooo easy to change the blades on my Bosch.
Did you get the branch cutter? Comes in a red multiple pak?
Got me two two sizes of pruning blades, both in multi paks. I love my new power!
