After my comments on seat belts to Jonas. Here is what I did yesterday.

I tried to make a pair of cut offs with my chain saw. Not a good idea with your leg in the pants. There is a 3/8 inch wide by 6 inch piece of the pant leg missing on the thigh. It did tag my leg and just took the first layer of skin off. It did not even bleed hardly at all until I scrubbed it.

You do not need to tell me how lucky I was. It was a brand new razor sharp chain. I have been running saws for 30 years and never had any accidents before. I will buy a pair of chaps before I touch the saw again.

My daughter was standing there watching when I did it. She was not happy with me at all.

All in all not a good day for PW orners in the Pacific North West.
