Large electric chainsaw

[Stere]

I found thoose recip saws have  terrible vibration and slow cutting but ie was a cheapo one.

 

 

A cordless one is useful for roots in holes  & trenches though etc

Stihl msa200 with the big ap300 batteries will run a 14" bar nose deep in oak all day. You will need two batteries and a charger though.
It's not a 440 though.
Won't be anything like that until the batteries get better.
I've looked in to it.
You can still get a 3phase stihl chainsaw.(on eBay)

much down to how hold it and blade and some of the better ones have far less vibrations you can get gloves that cut it down also.

The Makita top one has an AVS. My Hitachi is ok was ripping up pallets while back guy holding it said nails there! Where all gone they do some very aggressive blades 5TPI and below shread timber

Trouble is the bigger the cutting bits the louder they get so can end up back at square one! as those big circular saws make a racket

The japs do a silky type blade for recip saws but doesn't look much less effort than a hand saw.
