BNIB Petrol Chain Saw

Post by Spudda »

Got this on 'Fleabay' at the moment but with more and more people having log burners etc, I thought I'd post it up on here

I'm sure we could come to some postal agreement / meet up if anyones interested (y)

That would make my life easier for the wood burner. But at teh same time, I'm not currently using the burner enough.

I'd also want to try it out on everything in the garden. including dogs.

D6, I have a stihl chainsaw that I process all my logs with. And everything else. It trims hedges , does fine carpentry and scares my dog. Having a log burner must be expensive if you don't have a chainsaw

BUT

I have used all kinds of tools. Big and and small, and I can say that a chainsaw is the single most lethal tool I've ever come across. If you get one, take your time and be careful. They are brilliant but deadly.

Sorry, I was misleading. It's anopen fire place not a log burner. Obviously I can and do burn logs on it (as well as coal).

Only ttrouble is I find logs burn awway quite fast. A true log burner would be good, and throw out more heat (most of mine goes up the chimney) but I can't affrod to convert it yet.

I have dragged some logs cut down on cannock Chase home, and have them drying in the garden. I then saw them up using a hand woods saw. It is opretty tiring.

Yeah I thought I was all clever when I bought a bushman to cut stuff. But you are limited to stuff about 4" diameter.

My chainsaw makes easy work of anything. It's free heat once you buy one

You can get chainsaw trousers and overalls which are thick enough to stop a chainsaw cutting your leg or hand off. They will still make a mess of you, but they jam the blade so it stops.

My chainsaw is terrifying and I always want to the scared of it. Keeps me alert.

A hard hat with ear defenders and face cover built in are also good ideas IMO.
