If you cut the head of the spanner off you'll not be able to steal railway lines and the mounting blocks .

Another charity shop chuck out.
Reasons.
Damaged lead, so unable to be PAT. Good point.
No side handle, so not safe. No point
Safety guard seized. Fair point.

Got a box of sykes tools from Ebay turned up today and while out and about was offered 2 strimmers and a chain saw before they were chucked and a few taps and dies most of which will be conduit and BSP.

I never meet people like that when I'm out and about.
Wait, I tell a lie.
I did score a Bosch electric chain saw which I cleaned up, sharpened the chain and it's like new now.

DontD make this mistake ,once you try to use a chainsaw there's no way to come back
Is like a drug
First moment you will be scared ,but when you ear the engine working , sparking etc and you see the tree falling is something you can not come back from ...

There's a lot more involved, rather than just walking up to a tree and having at it.
You have to know what you're doing.

I'd peg cross cutting a felled tree as most dangerous for the uninitiated.There's a lot more involved, rather than just walking up to a tree and having at it.
The trees down and a false sense of security lulls you.
Cut the wrong branch and the whole lot rolls.
I miss working in the trade but got no bottle for climbing.

First time I used a chainsaw I cut down a tree and I felt that the thing was very satisfyingThere's a lot more involved, rather than just walking up to a tree and having at it.

They weren't, that was their problem.
Like every other activity or sport when you watch someone experienced/qualified, it just looks SO easy.
