Can anyone recommend a small chainsaw for light work. Not to cut tree
trunks but heavier branches that are pruned and so on so i can use them
for the fire/ Sawing manually on a saw horse is definitely tiring if not
exhausting!!

If you live on your own, think carefully about using a chainsaw. If it
slips there is no-one there to save you.
I have a woodburner and have wood to saw but since I was widowed I daren't
risk it.
Some of the heavier duty electric saws (not chainsaws) can cope with
branches and are much safer, although it depends on the diameter of them,
obviously.
If you want to use a chainsaw, make sure someone else is there.
I can use a bowsaw but, as you say, it's tiring.
I'm thinking of paying someone to come and do it.
