I always wear safety boots and trousers when operating the saw. Goggles when bucking and full head gear helmet when felling / working in the forest. I had dry branches falling down on me several times, and thanks to the helmet if had no injuries. Ear protectors with radio is nice too!

Nope, keeps you from hearing what is going on.......


We cut mostly birch, so the head gear isn't really needed......

The protective boots and trousers are mandatory, everything else is "according to circumstances".....

As a general rule I don't wear them, but sometimes I get this odd feeling that I've learned to trust and I'll wear them then.

You hear the voices too? :D Someday we'll talk in private. Every time I feel a strange tingle I get alert, Saved multitude of speeding tickets in earlier times.

My doctor asked me about carrying a gun all the time. I told him not to worry 7 out of 10 voices in my head tell me it's wrong to shoot people.:hmm3grin2orange:
 
If nothing else, less stickers in your legs!
