chain saw
Powered logging tool
A chain saw is a portable power tool with a toothed chain that rotates around a guide bar, used primarily for cutting trees and lumber.
The teeth rip through wood as the chain spins at high speed.
Chain saws run on gasoline engines or electric motors.
The tool has become a horror-movie staple, associated with masked killers and grisly violence.
Also spelled chainsaw.
