Reciprocating Saw

From CoMakingSpace Wiki

(Redirected from Pendel-Fuchsschwanz)

Reciprocating saws are commonly used in construction and demolition projects where you need fast and flexible cutting abilities, but not millimeter precision.

They are similar to jigsaws, but much larger and usually rest in the user's hands rather than on top of a workpiece.
