The Chainsaw Mill

Video showing our chainsaw mill in action. This is the first in a series. We will be using the mill to rebuild a set of logging sleds for our forestry operation.

Great job on chainsaw guidelines millling.👍👍👍👍🤩😎

[@TELOYSTV]

Nice my boss..👍 Keep safe to your freehand mill 🙂

[@rainman7992]

seems their would be a limitation as to how many boards one can get, cause at some point, their is not enough meat left to be able to attach the guide board and operate the saw...in other words, after the first cut, best to change over to a slider and use the chainsaw horizontally. use this device to get that first cut.

[@ERLong-ww7yn]

Yes, you're right. It's a beam machine with some capability for sawing boards

[@sebgam3996]

i have ms 250 with the chainsaw mill and it work very well

[@stephengardner776]

Have you had any issue with the Allen screws loosening up? Any remedy or been OK. Nice video . Thanks Steve

[@ERLong-ww7yn]

Hi Steve. Not on this unit, but previously I had another chainsaw mill that used to get loose. A good application of threadlock took care of that.

Hola cómo hacer para que los tornillos no se aflojen. Gracias

[@blaineperry4205]

How do you make sure you 2×4 is straight on the log

[@ERLong-ww7yn]

I shim the 2x4 if there are high spots where there will be a gap between the stud and the log. Otherwise, I just eyeball it and screw it down tight.

Witch chainsaw mill do you like the best? I need to make one inch wide boards

[@ERLong-ww7yn]

The Alaskan is by far the best for making dimensional lumber.

[@dean4069]

@@ERLong-ww7yn thanks for the reply, I will buy one, is there a specific manufacturer that you would recommend?

[@ERLong-ww7yn]

@@dean4069 the original Alaskan is made by Gransberg. You can't go wrong with the original.

Muito bom

[@crossholy12]

thanx. i wonder rear handles's cable? what is it for?

[@ERLong-ww7yn]

If you're speaking of the orange whip that extends behind the saw, that is a "tail" or "chainsaw measure". It is installed with two screws to the rear handle then cut to a length. We set ours in such a way that from the tip of the bar to the end of the tail is 4 feet and one inch. That way, when measuring up logs for bucking to length, we lay the saw on the tree at the butt, give the saw a shot of gas, marking the log at 4'1". Then, as we proceed up the tree, we mark lengths at 8'2", 12'3" and 16'4". The wood products we sell are either 8'4", 12'6", or 16'6". The whip gives us a quick way to approximate the lengths without using a tape measure.

​@ERLong-ww7yn that's genius

Where does you purchase of that

[@ERLong-ww7yn]

I bought this one on Amazon

[@suafiaaliilaaiandsuluvalel8203]

How I'm gone buy a chainsaw mill how you gone help thanks

[@ERLong-ww7yn]

Order it from Amazon

[@xuanlongvu8590]

A mua bao nhiêu tiền vậy

[@longrangevoodoo4480]

Lmao use a $2000 saw

[@ERLong-ww7yn]

Yes, because that $2000 saw cuts 60-80 cords of hardwood firewood a year as well as cutting oversized spruce and pine on our forestry operation. Thanks for watching

[@Wes_vin]

That’s 50cc and your bar is upside down amateurs in action stop beeingcheap get out buy a mill

[@ERLong-ww7yn]

Sorry, but you are factually incorrect on both points. A professional knows a bar should be reversed with each new chain to prevent uneven wear. The 500i is an 80cc saw. And if you bothered to watch any of my other videos you would know I own a bandsaw mill. Good day.
