Chain saw and machine security

Maybe think about incorparating a tamper alarm also, this will obviously increase the cost of production but it might be worth looking into.

Sound like you have a pretty good idea lined up. However as khriss just mentioned there is always a way around security if the thief really wants what they see. And that's the key, don't let them see the tools. I don't know any statistics on this but I would imagine most people who have the nerve to pinch tools probably nick them off site while passing. The best defence in preventing this is to keep them out of site.
If the product is good enough I'm sure it will sell though. Keep us posted if you do decide to go to the patenting office :-)

Well if it gets off the fag packet I'll let you know......

 

if something doesn't exist it's usually because there is no market rather than no one thought of it.

 

 

i haven't heard of many "I put my saw down and some scrote picked it up and stole it" stories but plenty of "parked at xyz for lunch, fuel, take a leak etc and when I came out my gear was gone or last night my truck/shed/unit was emptied"

 

 

Simole,answer is a huge van vault type thing but big heavy and expensive the idea is for a small secure lock that stops the scrote with a screwdriver and a hammer.

 

alarms are only any good if someone responds to it and small ones easily defeated by a hammer or a bottle of water.....

 

waiting to hear if manufacturer is interested

Definately do yr best - just for insurance purposes -  I think the Police just do not care and that combined with the millions of quid of arb kit pinched annualy demands a better response from Her Majesties Best . K
