Ingersoll Rand 429 Heavy-Duty Air Reciprocating Saw IRC-429

This tool cuts like killing snakes. To date, I have only used it on metal siding, so I don't have a feel for how it does with thicker material. It took a minute to get a feel for cutting curves, but it pretty much did things on its own. While the tool is great (and simple to operate), the manufacturer could have provided a little more meat in the owner's manual.

This tool was for cutting brass railing tubing and performed very well after getting used to the variable speed. It was, however, difficult to get the cut started on the polished surface. A simple starting groove with a hack saw solved that problem. It's light weight makes it easy to manipulate.
