Welcome to Chainsaw.org.uk!

Welcome to our web site which is the best chainsaw resource that you will find online in the UK. We have information about chainsaws and also have a database of chainsaws and so display relevant chainsaws on each of our pages.

A chainsaw is a portable, motorised saw which makes light work of any wood and is commonly used for log chopping, tree felling and to remove branches and foliage from trees. A chainsaw consists of a small engine which can be powered by petrol or electric, the bar and the cutting chain. The bar holds the cutting chain which is made up of small sharp blades which are known as teeth, some chains have a tooth on every second link which reduces the risk of clogging with soft wood.

The smaller chainsaws are often electric powered and so have a power cable so bear this in mind when you buy a chainsaw. The electric chainsaws are usually cheaper though and so if it is just for a few branches in the garden then electric is fine but for larger jobs petrol is the only option as they offer much more power and mobility.

Always keep in mind that chainsaws can be dangerous and so be sure that you know what you are doing and are wearing the correct protection such as gloves and eye protection. Also look out for chainsaws that have a fast kick back brake as this will stop the blade in the event of a kick back and this is very important.

This web site is all about helping you buy a cheap chainsaw though so see the menu on the right for pages about specific types of chainsaw with lots of cheap chainsaws of that type on each page. We also have a general selection of chainsaws on this page which is best for finding the cheapest deals and makes buying a cheap chainsaw easy.
