i dont carry a screwdriver anymore--i just hollow ground the end of my file to flat screwdriver--as its hard--works great for the bar adjust tightening--and beats the h out of a screwdriver---:)
 
Okay you ask, Of course i like pics. I promised to be more user friendly for dial up. So ya gotta open the pics.

This one i take if the wood is a long way off.

I never go cutting without an axe.

First aid kit.
wedges, plastic and steel
maul
bar nuts...life sucks if you lose one
scrench
carb screwdriver
chain files
chains
bar oil
2cycle mix
plenty of water
and of course, gracie, my german sheperd who has learned to load wood as I cut. Im gonna miss that dog a lot some day...
 
First get a rubber made type container with a snap on lid. Everything in one place. Gloves, round and flat files, small stiff plastic brush, small wire brush, spare spark plugs and air filters, plastic wedges and small sledge hammer, cloth towel, small roll of paper towels, scrench, extra chains in original boxes or freezer zip locks well labeled, dawn spray dish soap, wd40, extra 2-stroke oil and pliers.

My friends are amazed by my chainsaw box. The key is to always keep it together. Grab the saws, gas mix, bar oil and saw box and your set.

what is the dawn spray soap for?
 
In my large olive drab vietnam era ammo box one will find:

spare chains, grease gun, files, file guides, break n' mend chain repair tool, wd-40, felling wedges, screnches, sandpaper, Jb-weld, length of starter rope, bar nuts, tube of rtv, carb adjustment screwdriver, spark plugs, spare air filters, length of fuel line, fuel filters, roll of steel tying wire, hammer, fire extinguisher, leatherman tool, select sockets, ratchet and set of folding hex keys . . . behind the truck seat is a small folding army surplus shovel and my fiskars axe . . . that's it i believe
