Is a reciprocating saw appropriate for making 1.5" x 1.5" x 3/4" deep plunge cuts across the front and side faces of 4" x 4" fence posts. I have to cut 44 such tenons and think the saw would be more effective than the wood boring bit I tried. My concern is whether the saw would buck in such a deep cut. Also, would appreciate advice as to the most functional saw features, and whether an oscillating saw would be appropriate. Thanks for your assistance...
