Some are Amish and some are Mennonites around here.Mennonites dress similar,but are much more liberal about the use of electricity and cars and such.

I bought a blue heeler from a Amish that was advertised on the internet.When we went to look @ the dog I had to call for directions and was surprised to find out that he was Amish and had phone and internet in his barn.

I found this amusing... What’s so amusing about that? They use gas motors for just about everything. I have an Amish friend that has a table saw run by a gas engine. It’s pretty slick how it works. He told me an Amish guy makes those tables I asked him how much one would cost, $800 No, they don't. They use gas engines. Motors are electric.

That is some video. They are very creative and skillful people. I'm more familiar with other colony's but they also have those same minds.

They sell just about any wood working power tool you can think of in a pneumatic version. Table saws, planers, jointers, routers and the like. They cost about twice as much though. Around here, most Amish are allowed to use electric providing it is for business only.

They are amazing people. we have had a community around us for more that 30 years. Now the bad part. if you hunt deer or turkey or any animal better set your sights a bit lower for big deer or less. With sometimes 15 plus in a family and in Ohio 4 plus deer...If its brown its down policy, really hits your flock and heard.FACT

They will kill everything and they don’t care about property laws or no trespassing signs. They are super helpful when it comes to trapping also, they make sure to check your traps for you and take your traps to get them new tags.

Has the engine on your washing machine ever burned out? Ever put gas in a motorcycle or motorboat? How about a "motorized vehicle"?
