Newbie with some questions

Ms181 from frjones £200

Or you can get a husky for about £120 new.

The first damage will be your ears.

Get a decent helmet with visor and ear defenders.

Next is the feet, get steel toe capped chainsaw wellies.

Then chainsaw trousers.

You won't need c.s. Gloves unless you use a one handed saw.

Wind blown trees are some of the most dangerous you will encounter.

Tension and compression in wood is an art form. There's the theory, then there's reality, with rot, trees laying on trees etc.

Reading a tree's bark....etc.

If you've ever seen the force with which a wind blown stump jumps back in the ground.

I'd like to see you post your successes in the future.

Stay safe mate and good luck.
