What past students are saying
From my perspective, everyone that buys a chainsaw should have to take similar training. Gerald offered a very impressive safety training to those that attended. All of the important aspects were covered with each safety concern having its rationale explained so that those in the session could see the importance, lots of real world examples. These examples make it harder for people to ignore the importance of safety.
The reference book "The Cutting Edge" will be my "go to" reference guide, near at hand for any chainsaw adventure. It references all of the listed topics and more in an easy to understand format.
With the knowledge offered by the course and the book, I realized I have habits that need/demand improvement! The course has increased my awareness, and therefore comfort, while working in the woodlot: wish it'd been offered years ago!
My only regret is that I was not aware of any course like this thirty years ago when I started working in the forest. I would have done so much better if I had known the things that I learned in just eight hours yesterday
The safety training provided by Gerald did meet the needs of our clients

Yes, a great day yesterday! Thanks! Probably the biggest safety consideration for me is to be
constantly mindful of the location of the chainsaw bar and to use the chain brake if my feet are
moving!
The Course offered us a more complete understanding of both safety and practicality, both with a chainsaw and while in the woodlot.

Having been self-taught in handling a chainsaw, I picked up a lot of bad "YouTube" habits. This course was great at breaking those and learning a whole of other woodlot skills, like handling problem trees. Gerald was a wonderful instructor with a wealth of knowledge and practical experience. yesterday
