I've got to send my 346 back to the drawing board. It burns the hair off my "forward" hand. Too hot.
 
...

When the tree started to go, I forgot about the limb, (a 4 or 5 incher) and it pegged me in the top of the head.

Now here is the hard to believe part: I was wearing a hardhat. :msp_scared: No perceivable damage. I may be a little more sore tomorrow, but none the worse for wear.

There is a reason for this outcome. You have already used up all your bad luck.
 
I know that there have been some tall tales told here. And I have not be short of being involved.

However, here is one you'll find hard to believe:

I took down about 9 70-80 feet tall trees today. All but two were dead. In one of the live ones, (I had seen it) was a widowmaker.

When the tree started to go, I forgot about the limb, (a 4 or 5 incher) and it pegged me in the top of the head.

Now here is the hard to believe part: I was wearing a hardhat. :msp_scared: No perceivable damage. I may be a little more sore tomorrow, but none the worse for wear.

Now the part you might believe: I didn't wear a hardhat the entire rest of the day.



Tarry on.


Glad to hear your ok. Did it knock some sence in to you?

i just actually read this. i'm guilty of skimming posts.
glad to hear you're okay. how's the hardhat doing? i don't figure it was an accident you had that hat on. sounds like you were listening to wisdome. also, regarding the rest of the day, why where a hardhat when the tree is on the ground? just sayin
 
:msp_w00t: I bet that's real affective at catching the chain after it slaps your leg, arm's and hands
