No point hitting wire if you can avoid it.

Hopefully you enjoyed the pics more than I enjoyed having to trash the chain with the dirt and wire.

Thanks Nate.   :cheers:
Haven't had a good look at the chain yet but it should clean up okay.
I just swapped it out and keep cutting stuff.

They are good but seem to run at a higher speed than a Stihl and seem to wear out a little faster than a Stihl :D Plus the cut-off saws are heavier than a Stihl :ahhh

They certainly help keep things tidy in the truck. I use them for work, fishing, surfing, snowboarding, camping etc etc. And they're cheap.   :tu:   :tu:

The handles dig in a bit when heavy though. And not quite long enough for my chainsaw - maybe I will cut a slot for the bar....
We used to use fish bins when I was in Kaikoura.

Glad to see you've had safety equipment there
