Geobee thats what really scares me about these saws - half the people who buy them shouldn't be using them.

I was originally thinking of getting one of the Baumr-ag or Giantz pole chainsaws - then I thought do I really want something that has the ability to take my face off, and is 3 metres above my head and is cheap chinese metal.



If you know what you are doing and have a few spares machines like you have, you can get reasonable mileage out of one.
