Well, I certainly feel like an idiot for doing mortice and tenon legs while my collection of Stihl saws sit in the corner of my shop, shaking their heads and looking at me like I’m a moron.

[@bcschooloflogbuilding4385]

Ha! We certainly appreciate the mortise and tenon as well!

[@Gin_11162]

Found this video last night and made my 1st attempt of it today. My legs aren't near as pretty and the log was way more rustic in appearance.. but it turned out looking great! I've never done anything aside from a few 3-6in dia brush trees in the yard with a chainsaw.. til now. You made it look easy and inspired me. You guys rock!

[@bcschooloflogbuilding4385]

Glad you tried! They all turn out a little differently depending on the crafter… enjoy!

[@ejlilley]

Thank you for showing what to do without wasting our time! Much appreciated. Definitely have to do this one!

Nice! I hope the wood didn't crack anymore. The climate is dry here and I know I have problems with that a lot.

[@bcschooloflogbuilding4385]

Yes, most of the stools do some checking. …Character:)

[@patmeyer2517]

How did you figure the lines for the legs; where to cut?

[@bcschooloflogbuilding4385]

Divide it into six even slices, and make a leg in every other slice. Good luck!

[@natashasingh3291]

How long did u dry the stump?

[@bcschooloflogbuilding4385]

6 months or so is ideal

[@natashasingh3291]

And how did you dry them? Did u put them in the sun? I have 2 logs, which i intend to use as simply a stool, without any process, just removing its bark and sanding it. I live in india, and it's usually 37-40deg celsius, and a good 6-8 hrs of direct sunlight. How do u suggest i dry them, they already had some radial cracks though, when i received. Do u have a specific video on drying of wood logs?

[@bcschooloflogbuilding4385]

@@natashasingh3291 Peel the log then rough cut it to stool length leaving them 4” long then let them dry under shaded cover for 6 months. Not in direct sun. Then trim and grind to finish length.

I would love to hear how to avoid saw kickback when you used the tip of the saw like cutting out those wedges. I think safety tips are very most important for beginners.

[@bcschooloflogbuilding4385]

Always strive to cut on the bottom side of the tip to avoid kickback. Maybe we’ll put a kickback video out on the channel soon. Good luck.
