  3. not on here much, as much as our lorry anyway ha but i think what ive read dean lofthouse has put some good points across! my own oppinion is you should always respect the saw you using if you are competent enough to do something with it 1 handed which you feel will be safer and not out of stupidity or to look cool:thumbup1: then it definately works! experience and a good understanding of the job is the key thing, i would never encourage anyone to do it 1 handed but there has been situations were ive went to use the saw 2 hands and realised i was safer holding my rope n reaching out with 1 hand, any way good thread dean
