Hi everyone, I thought I’d introduce myself as I’ve just signed up. I’m 16 years old and have been around chainsaws for a number of years and have been using them on and off for a year or so, under supervision from my dad (scotty2809). I have also worked with chippers and garden equipment as I worked with a local landscaper/ gardener over a period of time. I have just received my early Christmas/ birthday gift which is a stihl ms170. I have been getting used to this size saw working with my dad and now he feels that i am ready for my own. I am very passionate about learning all of the skills you need to handle a chainsaw, including safety, and maintenance. I also do wood splitting to provide firewood for our house. I hope you can accept me onto the platform and I can’t wait to meet new people and learn new skills 😁
I may be young, but my dad has raised me to be very safety conscious. I understand all the hazards and risks involved. I have been around cars, bikes, 4x4’s and machinery from a very early age, and have huge respect for the dangers.
