Or a reciprocating horizontal one (thanks Jonathan Wheeler for that suggestion!)

[Michael Crofts]

Wanted - by me and my friend James Waterfield, for a sawmill we are building. We just missed one of these so we are renewing our search. The most common type is the horizontal reciprocating saw, but they were also made as verticals and they are sometimes referred to as Frame Saws. If you can help in any way please contact James or me, Michael Crofts:-
