Thanks for sharing your great wood turning projects, I learn something new with each one I watch. Living on a 5-acre natural bush property, we have tons of various Australian hardwoods in various stages-alive to dead, to choose from. Naturally I have large and small chainsaws, however, I recently bought an electric 20 Volt battery driven saw for use inside the shop, I am very impressed with its performance and battery life, I have used it outdoors to fell small trees etc. magic to just switch on/off without dislocating shoulder joints. Fantastic for indoor use. Regards from Tasmania.
