I used 2x6 on the top of the I-beams so there is more room for the tips of the log. It helps when you have really heavy logs. I also made my whole mill 12' long for longer lumber. One more tip... I added a fan over the saw. It keeps a lot of saw dust from getting sucked in and helps the saw run cooler.

Good idea! Did you use a 12 volt car fan or something? or were you close enough to plug it into a 120v outlet? And would it have been an axial fan or a squirrel cage blower?

I've built my fair share of jigs in my day, and have figured out a really easy solution to overcoming friction issues on sliding parts. Easiest fix I have found is to glue down laminate countertop material (i.e. Formica) so it is in a face-to-face configuration. I swear, it is slipperier than teflon! I've used it on the bottom of my cross-cut sled for my table saw, and it's like pushing a block of ice across a frozen pond.

I can't take credit for thinking this up on my own. I had seen a video about a guy named Dobson, who builds telescopes and mounts (you may have heard of the Dobsonian-style units). He uses it on the swiveling parts of the mount. I thought that was brilliant, and so I tried it on some jigs on my table saw. Works PERFECT.

A big advantage of wood on wood sliders, is that they are self cleaning...unlike wheels which would compact the sawdust. You could use angle iron pointed up for runners...then you need steel wheels...and it gets more complicated from there. With straight lumber, you don't need any metal except for fasteners. Nicely done.

Have you thought about using angle iron with the corner up for the track with a V-shaped wheel, similar to how some CNC machine’s guide rails are done? Seems like less resistance and the v shape would help saw dust just slide off. A leading and trailing brush would also help.

Great videos, great woodsman engineering. Okay, so the logs are wet, you cut them, how do you keep them from warping as they dry? Why do you snap off the last couple of inches, and not cut to the end. Also the drill seems to move as you cut, does this affect the thickness of the cut, or is it small enough not to make a difference. Thank you again for the excellent "maker/howto" videos.

Years ago, I saw a homemade camera dolly someone had posted on KZbin, he had put 2x4's at a 45° angle angled inwards for the rails, and then used roller blade wheels at 45° angled outwards on the carriage. The wheels sat down in this cradle made by the rails and were very stable. You might want to think about something like that, as the 45° angle of the rails would enable the sawdust to fall off them easily.

ripping is different than what you explain by ''stuffing the saw'', cross cut = chips, ripping from the end of the log as Izzy is doing will = small chips like dust, BUT if you lay the log down and cut in from the bark on down through the log you get the saw stuffing ribbons of wood,

High Izzy Sqain, started watching the 50 $ one last week, a little history, a few years ago I started building a iron one but my welding isn't that great so I gave up on that, I just finished one like yours, I used idea's from the 50 and 100 $ ones. also some of my own. I built my track just like your 50$ one but made it to fit my extension ladder also. I did make the base just like yours. Have my McCulloch Pro 10 10 on it, I am still pondering making a fuel bottle as the McCulloch filler is now on the side, Oil is fine though. My wench will be here tomorrow, still need to hook a throttle cable some way, I painted it today, just moved from Lake Tahoe and don't have my shop set up yet, I had to use my skillsaw with a rip guide which worked well, touched everything up with a power plain and sanders. Thank you very much for a great idea, I am a retired building contractor for over 50 years, it sure felt nice to be back to cutting wood though. thanks again. Ron Triano

Nice Video - excellent ideas and explanations. Question? Why have you set this up to not cut through the end of the log.. ? Does it get a little dangerous with the slab falling down on the saw? Beautiful live edges there !

So satisfying to watch. I didn't even speed it up during the cut.

Great design. I love my Granberg mill, but I'm not a fan of holding my face above the exhaust part of a chainsaw for extended periods. I think it's causing dain bramage.

Loving the saw mill build! About to try it myself. Genius. You start to think of all the things you can really create out of wood. Is there a video or plan on how to make a drill wench like you use to move the log with one finger?😅🤣💀I'd love to put that on my trailer to make loading logs from the side a breeze. The wench I had in mind but the drill and one finger part you've sold me on now💪😎💜

Maybe it's a passed over thing, but when I saw you stop the cut, pull a wedge out of your pocket, and toss it in the trailing end to relieve the pinch, I knew you know hat you're doing very well... I like your rig. Well done.

My question is how well does the chain get oiled being in that stationary position? I'm going to build one so i can mill some wood on my daughters property.

The chain oiler connects to the clutch. The saw is horizontal like it would be for felling trees. The pickup in the oil tank has a weight on it to keep it submerged in all positions as does the fuel line.

I put a high output oiler on my saw when using the Alaskan mill last year and felt that the amount of oil was still not what it should be. I think (although I could be wrong) but the vent hole inside the oil tank is often submerged in this position. I ended up running the saw with the filler cap partially open and it definitely improved the amount of oil going to the chain. It was a bit of the pain because the vibration kept unscrewing the filler cap so in the long run I will want to have a better solution.

you always need to keep an eye on the chain getting oiled, whatever you do. also learn to spot smoke, and overheating.
