no doubt, the owner of the store talked me into buying the stihl pants, they are made of a material that binds the saw chain if you happen to hit your legs, :knocking on all the wood I can find:

yeah, some of the furniture I make is from large pieces of solid wood.
you might have seen similar stuff, carved blocks of wood and solid trunks,
I call them "organic tables". to get the wood I cut up trees that have fallen down, or have landscapers drop off the large pieces after they cut a tree down. some of the trees are 24" + in diameter so I need all the power I can get. this was a compromise, I wanted a more powerful saw, but they get heavy after this model.

Chief the stihls they make for fire rescue are pretty sweet, I could not imagine having any other saw for a life or death situation. that sucks that they changed them on you. maybe they will go back to stihls the next time around.
