I was also interested by this throwsaw, after hearing Josh's description of its uses in windblow etc

Freeworker has two tidy looking kits, but very expensive

or if you really want to push the boat out (you're worth it)

coming back down to earth the bay of thieves has this version

it's not over yet - you will notice a chainsaw chain only has cutters on one side - so those metal rectangles help to orient the chain over the limb - well a double sided one has now exploded onto the market, claiming to cut on either side 

[josharb87]

Yeah the metal flag orientates the chain, and shows you the orientation too. the double sided chain you posted can still orientate itself on its side, you need that metal flag in my limited experience.

 

It is expensive, but for me, its paid for itself this week already.

 

Sorry to hear about your back @bigtreedon

It’s surprising how easy a chainsaw chain will cut manually.  We tied a section of chain to a piece of rope each end a couple years ago to fell an ash tree that a large limb had fallen into and was subsequently hung up in

[TIMON]

Thank u mate it's my back unfortunately

Sorry to hear about this Don. Wishing you a speedy recovery and a sense of peace right now. I remember you said you’d been suffering with it for a while. Take it easy.

Recovery sounds like a great word. No matter what, keep on forwards.
