Chainsaw 2T oil. Perplexed.

Plunge cut for a newbie, you trying to send him to hospital, like blow jobs, the tip is not something you want a newbie fucking around with.

Absouckinglutely. Or a cocky old hand.

Ever tell you about the time I rested the 066 on my thigh for a breather?

i have both of those. No chain brake, and a 3" scar on my leg.

Wimp, mine is about 5", but was only done with an 023. Right across the top of my knee. Hurts more when they are cutting the jagged flesh off the edges of the cut at the hospital.


Plunge cuts are fine Winstone, for someone who has done a few. Tis the only way to see how rotten some natives are on the inside.

Learned genulmen, having at me stump with the chainsaw is just a thought. Yup, plunge cut would be quick & easy but also dangerous. The saw would skitter about badly until I got a decent bite into it. Put's me off a bit. No doubt not the best thing for me wee saw, either.
I plunge cut some holes into big fence posts to build a locking retaining wall, no dramas, but that was treated pine. Quite surprised at how accurately & delicately a saw can be used with a bit of thought.

Every time I pick one of them up the Husqvarna dealers words ring in my ears. "You can't stitch mince". I always wear me chaps, hemlet, eye protection ect. ATGATT even in the garden.

...any high speed, motorised, on a bench, in your hands tool is much like riding a motorcycle...if you take your mind off the job in hand then what happens next is up to the tool, ...sometimes you are lucky sometimes you are fucked...keep your mind on the job at all times...

Oh, believe me, I do. I wear a helmet & goggles juicing carrots.

My built in "thatcouldhurtometer" is very finely tuned.

Stihl

There is no other saw. Got five of them with my brother. Hard care saws.

[unstuck]

I used to think that too, but I like my huskys just as much now. Especially when buying spare parts.

Good. What we are taiking about is the danger of chainsaws kicking back. It isn't funny or something you try and see. Kickback is brutal. Either the saw kicks up and the chainbrake stops the chain, or the operater pulls back the saw into his lower leg. Its a nasty wound.

Experienced people know this so we joke about injuries but chainsaws are tigers and a little bit of fear is very healthy. Take care.

I'm a chef & spend a lot of time working very quickly with very sharp or very hot things in me hands. There is only one way to do this unscathed and that's the right way. Obey the Golden rules & all is well & efficient.

Slowly getting their with me Solo, which I'm loving.

I need to prune a Monkey Cherry tree, the trunk forms three smaller trunks which I need to cut off. It's a bastard job for me, no experience, but I think I have it figured out and will get my friendly, local chainsaw instructor to look over my shoulder while I do it.

He can also get his behemoth husky 69cc light sabre into some more of me Wattle. Perhaps I can? That's a cool thought.

ironically, the only time i hurt myself is while wearing safety gear.

Proper technique counts for much.

1. Thats no hemoth. Me mann up the road got his sel' a ms880.


...120cc motherfucker. Shit will fuck trees up for days.
2. Larger saws are no more dangerous.
3. The tip is the only part that causes kickback. Infact the top 90¤ radius. If youre a professional bad ass, which i clearly am, you can start a plunge cut with it, as long as you keep the point (where chain changes direction) uninvolved till last.
I highly dont recomend it, but shows what can be done with care.
4. Do it pussy.

Surprisingly good points and advice...

Points 1,2 and 3 are in my go to handbook, "How to cut down trees with a chainsaw bloodlessly" by Tim Bear.

Point 4 was mentioned in an American drama serial on TV last night. Totally unrelated to chainsaws, though.
