Hey Sean, thanks for not lying, I (and I'm sure the rest of the board) appreciate your honesty

. Those are two very interesting stories, just remember, your stories here, may stop myself or one of the other members of this forum the same injury from occuring.
One last question though, can I ask how he kickback occured? Fatigue or complacency?

Lol nice one

, I used to cut myself on my hands like a mofo with my handsaw when it was still razor... Now that its dull, I've gotta work a little bit harder to get it through the wood, but that's all good cuz' that = less microscopic stinging OUCH cuts..
We usually have our first aid kit within 5m of the tree at all times. NEVER gets left in the truck.
