Rub some dirt on it and walk it off.

My brother and I own 11 Stihl chainsaws.
From a top handle to a ms660
Been cutting for about four decades.
Cut our pants 3-4 times, but no blood as best I can remember

You're right - the saw has to be running to do that kinda damage.

My dad has cut a pair of boots, and once
his jeans and his boxers. Not a scratch on his leg. Thats close!



Never cut by a running saw myself,
But was thinking about it running the trim saw in shorts and
Croc sandals. Manned up and put in boots to fire the 372 and take
a couple trees down.


Did manage to have a chip fly down my throat as I was inhaling.
That's enough excitement!

I thought that was a vagina when I first looked

And, the 661 is NOT fuel injected. Only the 500i is such

A pair of chaps is a lot less money than an emergency room visit

Not been bitten after 40 years with saws. Knock on wood. Splitting and stacking next winter's supply starting today. Locked out of the woods here, but I'm already done with the saws for this year.

Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.

Glad you got your wood in 1minute.

Friend here has deer tag on your side of the border. Archery, starts pretty soon, mid August I think? Says the place he hunts is in the closed forest.

I like to got it good spring of 2020. Cutting a bunch of brush out of the way to get to get to a blown down tree, got too hot and sweaty and careless, cut into a Chinese privet hedge trunk that was about four inches diameter. Got about two thirds of the way through the thing, it twisted and pinched, the saw kicked back right into my left knee. Didn't cut deep enough to go get sewn up but bled a bunch for a few minutes. Cut was ground full of sawdust, bar oil, cotton fabric, blood and chewed hide. Almost made it to the kneecap. Left a three inch long scar diagonally across my knee as a reminder to slow down and be careful. An eighth of inch deeper and it would have been bone time and I can't imagine how much pain that would have been. And how long to heal up.

I'm not sure what your talking about? A bushler's pay is based on how much wood they put on the ground. A cutter is paid hourly. It's typically more lucrative to be paid by the board feet depending on the ground your in. Stick was logging old growth based on his YouTube videos and I bet making good money while doing so.
When I logged we call busheling piece cutting. Mostly second and third growth hardwood trees. Sometimes you did ok, sometimes not.

We handled a incident (reported missing person) with a guy that was killed in an wood cutting accident with an Stihl 028. It kicked back and hit him in the forehead killing him. not a big saw but, it did the Job! DRT. I have heard that next to firearms, chainsaws have the second highest product liability of anything that can be purchased by consumers.

Never heard the term bushelor before,sounds like a forest service term not logging..Having looked it up a bushelor is the same as a logcutter/faller/feller/sawyer..One who falls/limbs and cuts the tree into logs for money aka by the board foot/log/tree length or even by the hour on a right of way job..

But that's in Idaho..lol
