I've cut my arm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[vduben]

but not in the usual way!!!

i was sectioning down a leylandii, i put my snap cut in, chain break went on and turned the saw off!!! the piece was only small so i held the saw in one hand and grabbed the broom handled size bit but it got caught up and pushed towards me and shoved my arm across the top of the bar!!!

if the chain break wasnt on then i might of got a smaller cut!!!!

befor in the docs

 

after at home
