Default Re: One Handed Chainsawing

Ya'll caught me red handed there... The pic is from a few years ago... I remember that it was one of the first times we used the GRCS and I just spiderlegged and cut off a rather large dead limb from the tree. I had to communicate with the groundie wich was actually a pretty good distance away operating the winch from the base of an adjacent tree, and I couldn't hear him when wearing the muffs so I took them off. When this pic was taken the limb was still hanging in the line, but I decided to cut a section again because the cut wasn't good enough to my standards.
The saw was indeed clipped in on the other side where I always carry it, but I guess that pounding on the crossover is irrelevant... The other points are true and ya'll can ride me for a few feet for it...

Hey when I go down, I go down in style. And besides that, I gotta give you guys some proof that even I am not perfect huh...
