They really need training videos or picture books to come with saws these days.

Watching some of my neighbours do a bit of work here and there... :shock:

I'm amazed there aren't more arms and legs lying around in my street.

I know what you mean.

I'm no expert but some people are just asking for trouble the way they use tools like this.

Cringing... just waiting for the cry when something goes bad :?

I wouldn't go camping without my chainsaw, much easier to get good wood for the campfire with one than without. One of the best things I ever bought to be honest, I wouldn't be without one now.
