Hi,
I need advice from users of the various types of garden saws.
I have an overgrown garden with old fruit trees and large shrubs, which all need taking out or severe pruning.
I have used a bow saw to cut off the easy bits but I am left with the larger branches and difficult low gound shrub base where it is difficult to get a manual saw to cut.
I initially was considering a small electric chain saw, but I am very concerned about the dangers.
So it comes down to a reciprocating saw or a scorpian saw.
I have looking at the usual models in the DIY stores and found that the reciprocating saws seem to be quite heavy and very long, even without blade, so these would possibly be unwieldy in a mess of branches... are these primarily meant for bench work etc ?
The Black & Decker Scorpion or Bosh sabre saws seem more compact, the Bosch being quite expensive....So,
Which is best as an all rounder for bendy and solid wood.??
and any recs would be appreciated.
