Friend want to cut some limbs off some trees in his front yard; asked for a saw.
Ok, little stuff. How bad can he *f-word that up?
Had him come over and showed him proper SOP and made him go through it all alone and cut some wood.
Ok. Explained the hazards and how bad he can mess himself up.
24hrs later....the guy is in the hospital.
Saw was a little 525T. Says he got pinched, used his left hand to push while keeping in right hand on the trigger. SMH.
Non shooter also, which explains a lot. Dude got lucky. Just a flesh wound. No long term damage.
Stay safe out there and don’t lend saws out.
