Power tools are tools used for drilling, cutting, shaping and many other industrial actions that can be powered by a steam engine, an electric motor or even natural power sources. Power tools can be stationary or portable. Stationary tools are the large machines that cannot be easily moved, while the portable ones can easily be moved and can be held by hand.
The tools can further be divided into those with a power cord and those without. Cordless are the ones that are powered by batteries. They are more easy to handle because they are light and do not need an external power source. The batteries used are rechargeable. Cordless tools may include pruning shears, hand held vacuums, trim saw, planer and the jig saw. The first cordless tool was the electric screw driver that used an alkaline flash battery.
