ok so because i have had 2 stupid accidents i am now stereo typed as being unsafe. never judge a book by its cover folks. i have been shooting for years. you guy seem to forget im not a silly wee boy, im quite the opposite. for my age i am quite mature and grown up,my age being 23, i am also a parent so i have no option but to be a bit more mature and grown up

any word on this lad guys ? im in the process of trying to rase some cash to donate, its kinda hard being a student with heaps of debt and a son lol but i will find a way to help
-
i also use fire arms and shotguns, everyone is ranting and raving about them but the chainsaw is just as deadly but without the range
-
silkys n bow saws all the way
-
you would think there would b some sort of statistics like, chainsaws are just as dangerous as cars they just dont make as much devistation when is goes wrong ???
-
it was work experience tho so richard wanted to give me a tase of everything, not learn it in any gr8 depth as i will do that at college
-
these things happen tho. il learn 2 be more aware when doing these daft mundane jobs lol
-
im sure everyone gets excited about using a big saw for the first time lol i dont get over excited tho, always thinking about safety and how to do the task in hand rather than thinkin whoa this is a big saw lets go cut everythinginto tiny pieces and hope for the best safety wise lol no offence taken m8 i no im a bit accident prone at time but its always with the daft jobs with no danger lol
-
the second accident would have happened to who ever went for the branch like, was just a week branch. was ash that i was snedding, the branch must have been stuck underneath the spageti of the rest. its always daft jobs wen it happens lol but i just get on with it. i am trying to take more care tho
-
fair point bud, the 66 made me nervous with the big bar, wasnt use to the balance etc. i dont want 2 end up as a statistic eather but i have had some sound advice from wrk exp and hopefully i stand in good stead to being a safe and sound operator. i generally have a level head aswell so that kinda helps
-
wat sorta engine size is the husky ?
-
well i went the whole of te second week without any real injurys except a branch cutting my lip lol, onc again i had my helmet etc on and my misfortune meant the branch came behind the visor lol. however the guy i was on my work exp with gave me the best advice i have ever had and thats to slow down and think more. its the first time ive been told to slow down at work, usually (construction) the foreman is telling me and everyone else to work harder n hurry up lol
-
dont hit your face off the chipper chute lol it hurts. slow down and take note of whats going on around you. its the best piece of advice ive had in a long time
-
i love it, the power is amazing, i would like 2 have a go of the 88 with a small bar like, it must be imense. i do like the 66 tho would b handy if it was lighter but hey we dont get muscles by complaining about wieght
-

-
we have the clinometer a lazer and some gun type thing at college but the lazer is by far the most acurate
-
theres no tresspassing law in scotland, its all down 2 using the green cross code, picking up dog dirt n closing gaes behind u n that. legally you can go pretty much anywhere in scotland n nobody can say anything as long as you dont make a mess. i cant see many people up here complaining about people climbing like
-
