Chainsaw gloves

[penfold]

not to mention your hands look like you've been grovelling in the coal bunker when they get hot and sweaty in the timberlands.

[Mr Ed]

yeah. the timberlands are not built to last, thats for sure !

The only one's I have tried are the Husky one's about £20 they last for absolutely years when you just keep them in the kit bag:001_smile:

Never found a pair I got on with, always thought I had more control without them. Had a couple of pairs of the basic husky ones as there were a few times I had to wear them despite arguing about it but I always found that if they got wet it didn't matter how slowly you dried them out they still went solid. Did try puttting some leather oil into them to soften them back up but then when they got wet they went slimy. In the bin is the best place for them IMO. That was all ground work so don't know about climbing

why do you need/whant chain saw gloves they are no longer manditory and other gloves may be moor appropriate for some operations rather than cs gloves

 

see chain saws at work hse

Nice1 always hated wearing them and only ever did on the odd building site job when nosy bored site managers were about:sneaky2:

[Arbocop]

just remember justified in risk assessment what gloves to wear not you dont have to have them
