Man Beheads Himself With Chainsaw
David Phyall, 50, used string to tie the Black & Decker power tool to a leg of a snooker table in his sitting room.
He then taped up the on button and plugged it into a timer, Winchester Coroner's Court was told.
Mr Phyall, who had had a small amount to drink but had not taken any drugs, then lay face up under the snooker table and put the chainsaw against his neck.
He used a piece of the tool's cardboard box to cushion the blades from his neck and then set the timer - usually used to turn lights on and off - to start up the chainsaw for 15 minutes.
When it started, it sliced three-quarters through his neck and into his right shoulder, only stopping when his T-shirt was dragged into the blades.
