DIY Tools, Outdoor Workshop, Log Cabin Remodel / Season 6 episode 10

In the previous episodes, I've shown my on-site preparations which were necessary for beginning the main summer project of making a wooden waterwheel and a waterwheel-powered mill.
I have already made a topsy-turvy workbench, fixed the cabin's door broken by an intruder, made a new wooden mallet, as well as installed and tested a DIY cloggers knife.
Everything is going according to my plans and I will soon be able to start building the waterwheel but first, it is important to prepare all of the necessary tools and organize a comfortable workspace.

Regarding the cuts - i would think of a mix of chainsaw plunge cuts and then cleaning up for the mortar and scoop... window - still chainsaw, just raiding a template on the two sides with "guides" on the bar

I just had to reply because your profile picture was a cat it's cute I had lots of cats in my lifetime all those cute little kittens little fuzz balls that run around all over the place. I never understood why people like dogs over cats I mean cats can actually clean themselves and they never stink they bury their poop and dogs drop it everywhere around the yard and you always have to watch where you step I loved cats ever since I was little I never really did like dogs.

I know! Me, too. And I have thought about it. I'm not particularly mechanically inclined, so I really don't have a clue. Glad he's finally going to share his technique. One clue, however, is the shape of the opening. What could cut that way? It's like two half-moons.🤔

I have a feeling that the mystery of the perfectly round holes has something to do with plunging the chainsaw and scrubbing the inner wood face with either long side of chain. 🤔 Perhaps it was pivoted or dangled in some ingeniously simple way, as usual! ☺️

This is correct, but there is a cruicial detail still needed...

[@TheGrantourismo]

@@Advoko May be the teeth are not coplanar to the guide bar to ease rotation.

[@Advoko]

No, it is something simple to make the whole process easy and safe. An addition to a chainsaw...

[@sasjadevries]

Hmmm... A chainsaw attachment to make something round? To me that sounds like attaching a stick/spike to a chainsaw and using it just like a compass is used to draw circles on paper. I imagine something like this should work.

[@charlesrunthesum5991]

Ok, your delivery is simple, authentic, easily absorbed and the content of man in harmony with nature is becoming a luxury in comparison with forward technology. Digital digets with eyes glued to a glass screen all day may indeed bring wealth but not the deep down satisfaction of being one with nature using tools provided by our immediate surroundings. Leveraging natural forces for simple conveniences is choice. Your building a shangri-la of peace and tranquility. Where something as simple as cracking a front yard walnut while sipping on creek ground coffee is the start of a wonderful day.. Thanx Max...as always...great video...
