Our chainsaws have already the brake system, not as efficient than the tablesaw's but well enough for the purpose and safe for the chainsaw's integrity. The trigger can be actuated easily by an electromagnet but the detector would be the tricky part. It can't be a short circuit system like the...

I have such a saw for cutting metal and it surprised me. Take your time and let it cuts at its pace. Easy for the motor, almost no heat spent in the surrounding metal and a way nicer cut than the abrasive disk. But in the wood, you don't know where the metal is, if there's metal at all. You just...

I wanted to buy a carbide chain when I began in the job, but I didn't got one. It's expensive, it cuts slowly, it's a bitch to sharpen, and it doesn't take well the hits on solid objects. It's somewhat limited to the dirty bark. No stone, no steel. I'm pretty sure that in this ash, the carbide...

Fiber glass is ... glass, which is made with a good amount of silica. It's very tiny and supple when alone, but is kept rigid and straight by the polyester or epoxy resin. And it's still harder than steel. For your beloved made cutting edges on your chain, it's a lost battle. I did a lot of...

That didn't come to my mind ! But I would think that they were smart enough to not waste their energy to do this sort of stupid thing. I guess that they know the difference between nuts/acorns and stones, no? Or do they just want to play?

Some stones in the stump, I can understand that. But in the air? In a horse chestnut at a crossroad, I found, no, my saw found a pocket (from an old rotten limb/cut) with a handful of small stones. No dirt, no sand, just the nut sized gravel. At 4 meters hight !:?

People love putting stuff and junk in the trees. Fences of course, very often, but rebar, angle iron or T post as a stake aren't rare either. Wires of different kinds are used to keep upright the shrubs and the flowers, as a washing line too. You have the rope wires as guys/holders for a leaning...

You can get along with some sorts of lime stones. But the siliceous ones, like the concrete, don't give you a chance. Last week I found two in a dead maple, alaping the stump. First side at the left, sparks ! I didn't seen that immediately because the stone was deeply embedded. Not worth to...

The steel's quality of the foreign object matters. I have cut some framing nails in theirs length without too much damages on the chain, others were cut through but dulled the cutters and once a drywall screw dead ended my cut. I guess that the bandsaw's steel isn't on the smooth side.
