Chaps for chainsaws - Why ?

I have often wondered if a chainsaw could cut through chaps or chainsaw pants, so I tested it and nailed an old pait of chaps to a log and ran the chainsaw through the chaps.  Watch the video only 1 minute, yes they work.  Chaps will save your legs.   The filming is not great but you get the point.  I tested it on a Husqvarna and a Stihl, the Stihl was easier to clean and remove the nylong strings.

Chaps do work have a look a video only 50 seconds.  I have often wondered if a chainsaw could cut through chaps or chainsaw pants, so I tested it and nailed an old pait of chaps to a log and ran the chainsaw through the chaps.  Yes they work. Chaps will save your legs.   Do not do this at home or in your workplace.
