Ingenious but terrifying at the same time.
No chain brake.
No lubrication.
If the chain snapped there is nothing to stop the chain flying back at the operator.
Needs must I suppose!

As WS says, no lube, no guards, handles in a poor orientation, no proper tensioning; accident waitng(not very long) to happen. Alarming.

Will someone let me know when I can uncurl my toes please?

i think perhaps the old gent has a bit of a death wish but as said needs must....

 

[pedrobedro]

He just needs a bucket of oil to dip the bar nose in before each cut and something to hold the tension in place and he's good to go.

I like the way he does the conversion with it still plugged in.

What speed is that chain running at?

**** that, utter madness. Been said, no chain brake , no guards to protect you if the chain comes off. Not for me, seen to many close calls with people using proper chainsaws to even consider that.

I don't know what to think about this ..On one level it's a bit of lateral thinking ... but it looks terrifying ... I thing the young guy holding the wood is very brave or very drunk.... jeff...

Beggars belief and Hospitals are full of idiots like this one, expecting surgeons to work miracles and stitch and fix him up. FOC. It might have helped if a bit PPE was evident, but given the risk assment PPE wouldnt help him a lot.

No Sypathy-sorry.

I cant even see it, do you have to have faceache?

 

[Mr shiney]

Terrifying. Genius but terrifying......

What speed is that chain running at?

Nothing like what it would be running at in a saw I can assure you, it is well within it's limits. Saws can be doing something like 11,000 rpm in the cut, way faster than a grinder.

The saw of death!

Christmas should be fine.
