[QUOTE="Windwalker7, post: 2674744, member: 25811"] I was bucking some logs a couple years ago wearing no PPE. I was in the pile of logs cutting away using the MS310 with 20" bar. I was waded into the pile of wood and in a situation where it was hard to move my feet, so I just switched to cutting left handed to get a few more cuts on the log. I lifted my right leg to roll a round out of the way and bumped it against the chain. Lucky for me, it just put a big cut in my jeans and didn't even scratch the skin. I immediately shut the saw off and called it a day. That was my wake up call. I bought chaps and a helmet with all the trimmings the next day. I could have had a serious injury for just being too cheap to get PPE. [/QUOTE]
