sounds like you want a silky. or a gta if you really insist on a chainsaw.

im wary of everyone jumping to conclusions here. theres very little detail given on how the saw came into contact with the finger. sounds like it is one or both at fault, but not enough detail to assume who. could be that one reached into the cutting zone, could be the saw jumped, could be the saw was swung carelessly. usual practice is stay away from the big noisy sharp cutty thing. 5m distance is standard guidelines from what i know, but i think is a little tricky in a domestic setting a physical barrier between workers seems excessive, anyone on site should know the safety principles or shouldnt be on site. sadly it does usually come down to operator behaviour at fault. but some wise-ass will always turn it onto management and it becomes their fault for not enforcing procedure.

get some boots resoled? cobblers!

i got told the early 800s had big issues, i think it was a vibration issue, later models had been fixed

eco-mentalist nutjob, who would almost certainly be the first to kick up a fuss and demand the council does something if a dead branch had fallen off the tree. lock her in a padded room with a mirror so she can shout at her own reflection

depends on the tree and where they are some will form a natural brace some will result in a weak branch more likely to fail

cue a long list of people each swearing by a different pair of trousers and marvelling at how long they lasted most are about 300 quid these days

outstanding! got me a boner watching that cyclist go down im not saying the tow guy wasnt at fault, but damn thats some good watching.

whats wrong with just putting a genuine stihl on it?

what saw is it going on?

question: how much use do people feel a rescue climber really is in the event of any major incident in the tree? major cut to neck/ face/ underarm, youve got about 2 minutes, can your climber get to you that fast? anything smaller you can maybe bring yourself down or slice your main line free and be lowered off like a log? any thoughts?

cyclists deserve it, let them through and aim for them

why?

random thoughts? boobs.
