Tips On Buying Your First Chainsaw

!±8± Tips On Buying Your First Chainsaw

Chainsaws have earnt a reputation as the planet's most dangerous power tool; and with good reason. Almost 40,000 people are injured each year using these effective but volatile machines . If you are in the market to purchase your first chainsaw then there are some important points to consider.

Frequent Or Infrequent Use?

One of the biggest mistakes chainsaw newbies make is mis-judging the type of machine they're actually after. Time and time again a first time chainsaw buyer will make the mistake of either buying too powerful or too ineffective a machine. Here's a good point to remember... ask an expert exactly what saw work you require and how frequently you are likely to use a chainsaw. This will give you a good starting point and in most cases, you'll get your answer very quickly.

Safety issues arise when inexperienced cutters attempt to use bigger, more powerful machines without an understanding of the hazards involved. Other than the fact that a big, powerful gas chainsaw can cut through just about any wood presented to it, many users overlook the fact that it takes a strong and usually fit operator to use one of these machines because tiredness creeps in quickly and this usually leads to fatigue and "sloppiness." This is when serious injury can occur.

Gas Vs. Electric Chainsaws

If you intend using your chainsaw on a regular basis then gas is definitely the way to go.The fact that they are mobile is a huge plus and for heavy cutting jobs, then they win hands down over electric saws all the time. Gas models come in a variety of sizes. Stihl and Husqvarna are the leading manufacturers of chainsaws in the world with both having their supporters and detractors. In the final analysis though, both produce some amazing gas chainsaws and choosing on your part will come down to the level of work you intend to perform.

Electric chainsaws certainly have their place, particularly within surburban areas. Why? Well for starters, they are much quieter than their gas cousins and given that cutting jobs within surburban areas are less frequent and lighter duty, then electric saws, in most cases would certainly suffice. Lighter and cheaper to buy and run, an electric chainsaw could be the right fit for your circumstances especially if you have more heavier trimming jobs to perform as opposed to cutting down trees.

What Brands?

It's been my experience that asking for an opinion on what brand you should favor when purchasing a chainsaw is a bit like asking someone who their favorite football team is or their what's their political persuasion. As mentioned earlier, Stihl and Husqvarna are the best known manufacturers and both have their own band of loyal followers. Don't discard other makes though including McCullough, Poulan, Echo and Homelite. It will all come down to what you prefer in the end and your decision may very well be based on which make of machine felt right during the testing period.

Skiing On the Cheap

!±8± Skiing On the Cheap

I just took up downhill skiing last year although I have been cross-country skiing since I was in my 20s. My reluctance to try downhill stemmed from several reasons, not the least of which was cost. Equipment and lift tickets can get very expensive. New boots can run into 0 or 0 and skis anywhere from 0 to 00 (I know they can get much more expensive but this is just what I see as the midrange in shops and ski magazine reviews, etc.)

Lift tickets run to over per day at the major resorts. Too rich for my blood! Last year my wife and I spent 0 skiing not including gasoline and that was 7 times for me and 8 for my wife. That includes rentals for me each time plus two lessons for me. We've gone twice so far this year and spent about 0 on equipment and Body on lift tickets. Here's what we did.

1. Someone turned us on to Warren Miller films last year. Warren Miller has been making one ski film a year for the last 50 years! We paid each for the movie. With that you get coupons for 4 or 5 free lift tickets to resorts in your part of the country plus a free subscription to a ski magazine and a discount coupon to a local ski shop. I'm sure the giveaways vary depending on your venue. One free lift ticket pays for the movie 2 or 3 times over. Can't beat it. Plus the movies are great.

2. This year we attended the Ski and Snowboard Expo here in Albany, NY. For the admission we got one free lift ticket and 2 "buy one get one free" coupons. There are other chances to win lift tickets and prizes like skis too. Plus there are good deals to be had on new and used equipment and clothing. Check out similar events in your part of the country.

3. I bought my own equipment this year. I got a used pair of skis for 9 and new boots for 9. I got mine from a regular ski and bike shop but I saw skis on Craig's List for ! Make sure you get parabolic (curved) skis and not the old straight sided kind. There is also a chain here called Play It Again Sports that sells used stuff. My wife got her skis there last year for 9.

4. There are always some small, family oriented local hills that have cheaper lift tickets, especially later in the season. Last year's spring season was awesome here in the east. We found lift tickets in March. A nephew worked at a great resort in Vermont last year and we got tickets on employee appreciation day. Sadly, he does not work there this year. :-(

We used our 2 for 1s at a place that had tickets in March, so, for the two of us for the day.

I could go on and on but the bottom line is, if you really want to ski (and you live in an area that gets snow ;-) )search around and you can find a way to do it.

The Ski Bum's Guide (www.skibumsguide.com) is free and it's a fun read with some usable ideas (but watch out, some ideas, as the authors readily admit, are borderline or outright illegal or may get you banned from the resort).

So I hope I have helped with some good ideas.

Carve it up!
