Kevlar pants, hearing protection, sometimes a mask if I getting it in the face with sawdust. I have a pair of bugeye goggles for the hot days, milling something like ash. Gloves, I always wear boots. I've never found anything in log. I don't cut to much stuff from where people have been. (Mars?) The mill seems like a safe way to cut with a chainsaw to me.
But when falling I use my helmet system. I have both the Stihl and the Baileys special. Truthfully I like the Baileys. I could never get the face shield to stay on the Stihl. The Baileys, it's a little difficult to get the ear protection up but over all I like it better. And for almost half the money, Stihl can take a hike.
And as always the best protection is to not cut when your tired. Once I start tripping on branches or rocks that's when it's Miller time, quiting time.
