Chaps or trousers?

[AHPP]

Trousers. Or nothing.
Have you thought about milling some of these big logs? Could be a few quid in them or just some nice/useful timber for yourself if you have the need. You’ll still have plenty of waste scabs and cutoffs for firewood. Your 36” bar could live in the mill and you could monster through firewood with a 20” or 25”, which are quicker to sharpen and more pleasant to use.

Chaps are for cowboys

I would not trust myself with a 36in bar. My Husqvarna 18in is more than enough .

By rights with a 660 u really should be wearing a set of class 2 or 3 trousers to cope with the chain speed and power the saw will have.

 

Was it northern arb supplies that strapped some old trousers to a log  and put a saw into them after 70cc the saw just cut right trou the trousers, but that was with throttle held flat out not a slowing chain which trousers are designed for.

Quite a soberingf thought, even with proper PPE on u stll need to have safe work practices and a good stance
