Do the modern Amish, and Mennonites use power tools?
I always hear commercial’s on the radio from stores that sell hand crafted furniture made my Amish, and Mennonite craftsman. Something makes me think they dont use power tools for building because i figure they do things strictly with their hands since their old fashioned.
I just had this thought after i thought of the movie Kingpin.
Some Amish sects use power tools, but for the most part no. The Swartz who build buggys have improvised their tools. ie: Turned a bicycle into a air powered paint sprayer. Made a treadle sewing machine into a band saw.
In Indiana there is a Amish sect that uses solar panels to charge the batteries on their buggys that power their headlights and taillights for night driving. They have running water in their community, it is graviety fed.
In Missouri there are Amish who milk cows for a living and have a cooler run by electricity for the cans of milk. Plus these Amish have a little building with a telephone inside for all the clan to use. Mennonites on the other hand do use power tools, drive cars, have tractors. Usually no television. Maybe they will have a radio. Their clothes can have prints, buttons and zippers, unlike the Amish who prefer the plain cloth.
Here is a tiny bit of history for you. The Mennonites came first. There were disagreements among them and they broke up as a group. One man, Jacob Amin tried to get the group back together, but instead wound up forming another church and the Mennonites dubbed them Amish. One of the quarrels was over the men’s beards. Some felt the Bible said not to cut the beard and to wear it long, others thought it meant to keep the beard trimmed up and short. They couldn’t agree on what to do, was it Biblical, traditional, or doctrine?
