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.
This tool is not ready for use yet since not all commissioning steps have been completed. The process is also tracked on GitHub. Feel free to contribute to making it usable, any help is very welcome!
