[QUOTE="strongback, post: 1156855, member: 24153"] 16 is definitely old enough to run a saw. I probably started using a little Mac (don't know the model but it was tiny) when I was maybe 11-12. Just cutting limbs and the little itty bitty stuff. It wan't long before I was running the bigger saws and by sixteen I was sending pop back in the house to get warm while I did the lions share of the work. As has been said though, make sure he's got [B]all [/B]of his PPE. We didn't use any PPE when I was coming up. The only time we even wore gloves was when it was cold. I luckily never got more than a couple of scratches but lord knows it could have been worse. [/QUOTE]
