Not to mention trees and limbs are a lot heavier than they look.
I have 2 Stihls, both gas. Easiest starting chainsaws ever. 14” blade seems perfect for cutting downed stuff.
Heh, there’s the planned drop and the actual drop, not always the same. A walnut that should have fallen away from the building 10ft away went the opposite way when the wind kicked up…that’s when I called a pro.
If there is a boat launch or station anywhere near you they may sell marine gas there, but the harder it is to find the more it will cost.
Yeah, I’ll have to check. There are marinas up north a bit.
I know more people who have been hurt by table saws than chain saws for sure, and I know a shit ton of tree guys.
I know two different guys who cut all 4 fingers off one of their hands on table saws. I also know a few people who fucked themselves up with a chainsaw though.
I know people who have f*cked themselves to high heaven with a Welsh Corgi. Respect your tools/pets.
Well in my experience you don't last 25 years in a business that largely involves you being 15 to 60 feet in the air on 12" pickboards without falling, ever, if you don't respect your equipment. And know how to use it. And not do stupid shit.
‘Eh, I’d call it about even. A table saw is unlikely to cut off anything above your elbow.
Careful with those saws boys. Now here's a real idiot here, me, who reversed my hands on my chop saw lazy at the end of the day, last job, didn't feel like taking out my tablesaw out of the van. Using the saw for something it wasn't designed to do. 1st time the wood shot out and hit me in the chest. That wasn't good enough, so I decided to really screw myself up. The wood actually did this damage, not the blade.
shitballs....that sucks bro but I do the same shit. Try and rip something on my slider instead of using the table saw. They have made some new clutch that supposedly stops saw blades immediately on contact with human flesh. I don't know how they did it but I have seen videos.Careful with those saws boys.

Now when I use any saw, I have a little tinge of anxiety
