Home chainsaw (March 2025)

Two Day Course: Cost - £190. Deposit - £95.

Saturday 15th – Sunday 16th March 2025

Chainsaws are both useful and extremely dangerous.

Everyone who uses one should have some training but, if you only use the saw on your own land, you only need to have training and do not need a certificate.

During this course an experienced local forestry worker will cover the construction and maintenance of a chainsaw including sharpening the chain, cross-cutting logs and felling small diameter trees.

You must have your own chainsaw and appropriate protective chainsaw clothing – helmet, visor and ear defenders, gloves, trousers and boots.

Your tutor will be David Scott.

If you would rather pay a deposit of half the course cost now and the balance later then please email - enquiries@woodlandskillscentre.co.uk and we will make the booking and invoice you for the deposit.
