Chainsaw Repair

Chaps are a basic piece of personal protective equipment (PPE) for chains saw users.  Some people are reluctant to buy them, possibly due to the cost.  Some people are reluctant to 'retire' them, again, possibly due to the cost.  If only the outer fabric of the chaps is damaged, with none of the inner, protective fibers affected, the chaps can usually be repaired - a cost effective alternative.

Here is a common sense approach from the US Forest Service:
"Inspecting, Cleaning, Repairing, and Retiring USDA Forest Service Chain Saw Chaps"
