Just a slice of life in the old garage.  Modifying a Silky pruning saw to fit the reciprocating saw.

Also... coasters?

Pruning For Machinists!

Do you really like your pruning saw? Have you ever wish it was powered? Do I have any more leading questions? Nope. Enjoy!

The biggest issue with the Hackzall (which I own, and love!) is the short stroke - only 0.75 of an inch. A full size Sawzall has a stroke of 1.5 to 1.75 inches.

That's what SHE said...….Okay, now I hate myself for such a Sophomoric comment. But, who wasn't think that?

Glad to see you're back, even if you are just playing with dead trees :D

Ok, you HAVE to listen to me. My nickname, not unearned, is Samurai Sawzall Pete. Just ask Kurt. Okay, that said, here's my thoughts. You can get 6-inch fleam ground sawzall blades from a few different manufacturers. They're getting hard to find, but they're awesome sharp. Also, if you change the .com to .jp after typing in Mr. Bezos' favorite address, you can actually order fleam ground pruning blades for recip saws directly from the country that makes them best. I've also found them on fleabay. Here's one available via the US site: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004A6W4RW
