    Your well geared up Muckit. I have a couple of pairs of them gloves. Great glove, they take a lot of hardship.
    The boots on the otherhand I find heavy, hot and cumbersome, infact I rarely wear them.
    I've a pair of the trousers too, and the helmet/visor/muffs.
    The fool that I am, I normally just wear the helmet and gloves.

    Ya I'm hoping to get the pants aswel down the line. I had nothing before this, just ordinary pair of muffs and pair of safety glasses.

    I never thought about gloves, but lad in shop said they're the first thing you should buy, in case chain ever snapped :o I just noticed though that only left hand glove is padded... I'm left handed.... perhaps I shouldn't be using a chainsaw at all !!

    The trousers are fairly heavy too. You work up a sweat shocking easily.

    The back of the left glove is padded to protect from kickback. You being left handed need the padding on the opposide glove, but I dunno can they be got?

    Chainsaws are designed to be operated right-handed. Full stop.
    Cithoguery is not catered for in chainsaw design, and is a very dangerous activity to engage in.

    I did several chainsaw courses with Coillte over the years, a co-worker of mine is left handed and was trained too with the rest of us. He always looks awkward using the saw though.

    I didn't mean that lefties aren't allowed use chainsaws, just that the saws aren't designed to be used lefthanded, and using one lefthanded is against all industry standards and best practice.
    Certainly, no-one using one lefthanded would pass a competence course, and the H&S people would run anyone doing so in any sort of commercial setting.

    I have the pants alright, and the helmet with face and ear protection.

    must get some steeled wellies alright, currently wear steel toe cap boots, but wellies would be better for muck.

    the chaps can only be worn on the coldest of days though, pure murder, you're wearing nearly half an inch of top grade insulation wrapped around your legs like.

    I have the same- boots, pants and all in one helmet. Boots and pants together can make for slow working but is more peace of mind.
    I recall watching something on TV where one of the guys tripped up with the saw running, if it hadnt been for the trousers seizing the saw his leg was gone.
