Don't understand you 2dogs. I knew what chainsaw jim was saying were "guidelines" and I have run into times when I had wood wider than my bar and that there are many things that cause kickbacks. But the name calling and put downs...grow up. If you have a beef with Jim PM him and call names there. Don't crap on this thread and be petty and disrespectful because you have some ax to grind. Geez.Spoken like an amateur firewood cutter. There are so many times when the wood is wider than the bar is long that it barely requires mention. Then again in the world of firewood you can pick the trees you want to cut. It is not just lack of concentration that causes kickbacks. I would recommend that you stay away from big wood and refrain from handing out advice.
