Mewps can take alot of hard work out of certain jobs like chogging down a large butt on yer spikes with a 70cc saw hanging off yer belt or a 10% crown reduction when you have to get right out there, moreover you can make the exact prune cut you want and not go for 2nd best cos you cant quite reach. I think it will make your life alot easier gray git and speed up alot of jobs.

 

If you have the saw hanging from your harness when chogging, your doing it wrong, IMO.

True. Just trying to make an example, perhaps not the best one!!

After cutting a chog, leave it sat on top of the stem, then begin cutting the next chog, once the saw is safely buried far enough into the stem leave the saw there, throw down the cut chog and move yourself down the stem a little, this way the saw is always in the stem and not hanging of your harness.
