Obviously, we are a company. We want to learn more about Chainsaw owners, what they value and what sorts of tools and kit you use on a daily basis and why.

 

1) which Chainsaw do you use? (most if you have more than 1)

 

2) What item of PPE could you totally not do without?

 

3) Which axes do you favour?

 

 

Thanks.

CHAINSAWS: I use all husky's, 357xp and a 560xp for general stuff with 16" oregon bar and chain. Tophandle i use a husky T540xp, MILLING: I use either a 395xp36" SUGI bar with ripping chain or My 3120xp 52" SUGI bar with ripping chain for bigger things.

 

PPE: ANDREW boots, soooo comfy!

 

AXE: Wetterlings, forest axe and small forest axe. cheaper than a gransfors, same quality, razor sharp!!!! only because of rumours that gransfors are not a very accommodating supplier to distributors!

 

I service a 70 acre forest.
