There are people I won’t loan anything to but most folks are pretty careful with other’s tools. In the end it’s just stuff. Helping a neighbor out with the loan of a tool doesn’t really scare me. I’d be cautious about loaning out my tractor and backhoe without having the borrower demonstrate some skill with it first. Or at least not without giving him a block of instruction first if he’d never used one.
I agree, but a Stihl Pro saw is another story.
I made the mistake of loaning my 261 to my idiot brother ONCE - on his very first cut, he destroyed the blade and the chain. He didn't pay for the damage either.
My mistake on the earlier post.
I'd never loan my saw.
But if I had crappy stuff like Stihls it would be OK.
Guess everyone should own a beater saw.

Maybe I'd loan one of the 10-10s.
If they break it, I'm not out much.
If they run it for long, they will never ask again.
