Doing some tree trimming with a new electric chainsaw when I was 17. Cuts real smooth since it was new. A lot easier than getting clippers for the smaller pieces. Turns out it is not as easy to control when you have a small branch held in one hand and the chainsaw in the other. When the saw bucked, it bounced into my other hand and sliced into two fingers, taking a small portion out of my thumb nail, and making two parallel cuts in my forefinger. Thumb healed almost 100%, and forefinger still have two very cute scars in my finger. No other permanent damage though.
