Liked watching. You add a sense of realism to TH-cam vids. A lot of the other content producers make everything look so slick, polished but I appreciated just a guy learning as he goes. Keep up the videos.
Nice job. I appreciate you making a first time video. So many TH-camrs edit their videos and spend a lot of money on camera equipment to make these great quality videos while first timers struggle to get those same results and then become frustrated. I appreciate your honestly and taking me along for the journey. I wish you continued success and God bless.
Thank you. I'm glad this video is still available. I have been considering a chainsaw saw mill and this video is a big help. Your decision to not edit out the learning curve was a good one. This gives me a lot to look into and consider without unrealistic expectations that might bum me out if I had to figure them out myself. I guess what it really boils down to is that I know what I might need to look for in a mill and to go slow and expect those first few cuts to be less than perfect. Thanks again. Peace.
I love the learning format and the fact we can learn with you. Thank you for not editing this video to make it look like you just picked up some equipment and cut through some wood like it was butter.
Buddy! Great video. You are so real about everything even showing us your learning curve because we would go through to again great video I appreciate people out there like you.👍🏻
That IS pretty cool man. It's super cool. It's really exciting. I had wanted to make a board for many many years. And the first time I finally did I was ectastatic. In fact I still am. That's what fueled me into getting into my passion of milling and wood working. Good for you brother and great honest video
One of your best videos since I've been watching... All I kept thinking was why didn't he just buy a board or 50 from Home Depot? Then after all was said and done, you got one board (2-4 hours?) done and the look of pride on your face made it all so worth it! Thanks for your time making these educational videos!
Take your time you are on a learning curve so to speak.Each time you'll learn a new trick or way of doing this. Enjoy yourself as you make lumber. Its a lot of fun to make lumber from logs.
I looked all over for a set of those log dogs... then I watched and found that you made them. You could seriously cram the milling and manufacture those things... I'd buy a set.
Awesome work. Love the honesty in your video. I would buy the jig based on your video. A video that makes it look too easy, is usually an edited reel of fake re-takes.
and this. vvv is why the internet is so great so much free information and a group of people in the comments all giving advice. much love brothers and sisters
We're getting ready to partner with a tree trimmer who always finds some pretty pieces of timber and they hate seeing them turned into firewood. We're going to be trading some graphic design for cut pieces and are planning to try out milling some lumber. It's been really interesting to see how folks rip the logs down on different budgets. We're going to be building a small wood kiln for larger blocks of wood for turning this summer. Lot's of projects on the horizon and when we're not doing projects, both of us are watching videos of other people's projects...nerds.
That sounds like a great arrangement. One arborist could supply enough wood in a week to keep me going for years. It sounds like you've got a great mix of art and woodworking. You should have some great results. I enjoy seeing how others do things too.
Hey John not painful at all to watch the series...lol Actually I was a little anxious for this final one. I think you actually convinced me at the end when I saw your happiness and the pride you had after you made your first board that it is worth having one too. Also I have been doing a little research too and see that they highly recommend the ripping chain. I commend you for making your chain work better. Patients is a virtue isn't it. Best of luck and I hope you continue with it and I look forward to seeing more videos using it. You are absolutely right that as you work it more you will get better. I see too that you changed the rail from 5" to what I guess is now 6". Again great video and I got excited about it soon as I saw your change after that first board was cut. We all need a nice lift every now and then John M
I've used my Logosol jig on a husqvarna 51 and have good success on oak and pine. There is clearly a learning curve when using an under powered saw. Investing in ripping chains is a must. You need to develop the skill of even pressure on the saw and maintaining the sweet spot RPM. It's definitely a good physical work out to be bent over pushing the saw constantly through the cut. Also call it quits after your saw gets to hot from constant high RPMs and definitely clean your chain in a solvent when done. The planks I cut the first time I used it paid for itself.
This was awesome... I can see soooooo much potential with a mill... Even the scraps off the log could be used as like a siding of a type for out buildings to make them look like a log cabin.. Pretty stinking neat.. I enjoyed watching.
next time use wedge shims every 18 inches or so as you go, it will keep your cut off from dropping down on your chain bar and pinching it. It will make a huge difference on the ease of your cuts.
Yeah most of his problems was lack of shimming, he was bound to feel it pressing the bar. Also attacking it at a sharper angle instead of all of the teeth at once would have allowed more consistent faster rpms and results. AT least throw out more oil, he is just 90 degree burying the blade. Good video though.
I do quite a bit of chainsaw milling and have a capacity to mill trees up to 57" in diameter at the moment. As such, I can tell you that the righ chain absolutely makes a difference. I prefer the Granberg ripping chain as it produces the absolute smoothest cut if I do my part. Their rip chain has two different types of cutters, clearing cutters and scoring cutters. I will try to explain this, but it might not make sense. The scoring cutters cut on the left and right hand side of the cut but not down the middle. The clearing cutters come down the center of the kerf, clearing the material left by the scoring cutters. This two step approach to cutting the wood fibers helps to prevent the wood grain from tearing as badly...at least that is what I think. By the way....I love your log dogs man. I wish I had a welder. That sure beats jamming little pieces of wood off to each side of a log. I've seen them for sale before, but I refuse to pay $100 or more for something that simple. Again, I enjoyed the video. Thank you for doing it.
I heard young children and saw how distracted you were, that's a good thing, it shows what a good dad you are. I also noticed you have more than one log. The mill works best with a rip chain, but if you live in a city and see them trimming trees, ask them if you can have the wood. Not a bad extra income. Charge by the kind of wood and the board-foot.
I got the idea from an arborist. He gets 2$ a boardfoot for rough sawn redwood, but then he has a production mill. Check his channel at AboristBlairGlenn. Good luck with the new chain.
Merci de la vidéo. Ca relativise utilement la vidéo de Logosol et ça m'aide dans ma décision d'achat. J'aime bien l'approche et la tonalité de la démonstration.
Hallo, ich Säge meine Stämme mit der gleichen Vorrichtung von Logosol mit einer 661 Stihl und bin sehr zufrieden. Meine Frage wäre nur deine Einschlagkeile die du im Video benutzt, wie heißen die und wo bekommt man sowas her?
I think this video answers your question th-cam.com/video/yc4h8uF5SH8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=vVuX08taSJpNoemO . I purchased the plans from the man in the video and built them. We call them log dogs.
Had my self a little marathon here watching your series. Loved it. Bought one just about exactly one year ago, still in the box, ordered a rip chain this monday, got it in the mail yesterday. Problem is, my chainsaw is in my motherinlaws basement... A 3hr drive from home. Anywho, thanks for the videos! Nice to see what to expect ;)
Small update ;) Assembled my Timberjig last night, found it during a long needed shop/garage cleanup. Looks good! So, in about two weeks, I'll see how it works out. Looks promising.
Yes, none of them broke ;) I remembered your vdeo, and made sure I didn't overtighten it. Had to read it more than once. It was in swedish, but hey, Comming from Norway, that wasn't to hard to understand ;)
Ok. Got some milling done yesterday. FUN! Not perfect, but close enough :) One Birch, about 40cm dia, and two logs of a cypress I cut down last summer, about the same size.
thanks :) I got he exact same set up as you. so yes, Timberjig. I'm thinking about making a somewhat more permanent station for the job, it was kind of low, some lower back pains, nothing to bad.
Yup, build a ramp.... Mostly I cut logs for making bowls, not lumber. Cutting directly into end grain is much harder than cutting it in a ripping motion, like at 45 degrees or so. Wish I had some of that ash with the brown heart in it. Can't keep bowls with that in it on the shelf....
All you have to do is be good at what you do first. Then when you know you're ready just tell all your friends what your plans are and the customers will find you pretty fast. One word of warning though, don't let yourself get overwhelmed by all the Business, they are demanding sometimes.
Funny How the simple things can be the most satisfying. Well done and great Vid. I have been thinking about this and now you have given me a realistic perspective and a good heads up on what I need which I didn't realise. I know know this won't be as easy as often made to look but isn't that what makes the effort worthwhile. Thanks for the Vid.
Its a great video and very I didnt mean to come accross negative that was not my intentions. I thought there was probably a reason, and was curiouse . I love my chain saw and would get a kick out of using one of these. and BTW very smart idea on making those little red things to keep the logs from rolling.
I appreciate your honesty. With a horrible spine every movement I make can not be waisted and needs to calculated. Approximately how long did each cut take both with cut and skip chain?
I'm going up to my family home in Scotland prob. the end of March as the weather's being a pain as per usual, to start building a small cabin and will be using a portable mill, now I haven't seen it yet but I have watched a fair few videos on different types. This video is especially informative, as I didn't know about the different chains etc, I'm hoping my sister has got the mill that has the ramps that grip the log and the setup that you fit the chainsaw into (so I can't mess up and cut myself in half...yikes!) Your video has given me a bit more to think about and I will have a look at the other ones. But thanks for putting this up as it's showed me some of the areas to be aware of in choice of chain etc. Mind you, I will only be cutting sitka spruce which were blown down (we lost a lot c. 1,000 trees so it's waste not, want not. If my cabin is successful I may get some help and put up some holiday rentals for my sister to help her out financially as you can't even rent a trailer for less than £550 a week in December in Aberdeenshire, so hopefully all goes well. I may put up a video if it works out ok!) Thanks again. ..don't quite know if you have made the nightmares better or worse yet but at least I know more!
You need to make wooden wedges, then place them behind your cut, or someone following you placing wedges. This way your chainsaw won't get pinched and bog down. Ty for the video, good stuff!
Use chisel bit (square shoulder profile) chain and file the tooth angle to 5 degrees. Rakers depth needs to be set to take a bare minimun depth of cut (this will smooth your cuts and keep the chain cooler ) Also ripping requires additional oiling to the chain. Use the manual oiler often. Get a power head with a minimum 70cc. I recommend Husquavarna as the have a higher chain speed than Stihl. Cheers and be safe
@land Designs unlimited llc nice video you made there! I'm from Germany and I would like to mill my own wood also, a nice video to get an overview about what your gonna need and it shows also nice on which things you have to look in the beginning! I knew already about the 10/15 degrees which are needed to cut length side, but for the other people it's for sure great to see what's the difference between using those chains! Very nice done!
+Land Designs Unlimited LLC Yeah! Im sure it is! You should do a video from the log to the finished product like a bank or an table. Which kind of wood did you cut in this video?
It's very reasonable to start but once you start you'll want to upgrade. If you're a hardcore woodworker or chainsaw guy take a hard look at the Farmers M8. Knowing what I know now I would have got that one from the start.
Milling or ripping chain is a necessity when using a chainsaw mill. And it should be a skip tooth chain. Without the skip tooth, or when using cross cut chain, the cut chippings jam in the kerf, causing the saw to jerk and buck. Bailey's carries milling chain, looped to length, or in rolls. The cutting angle is 10 degrees, is relatively easy to maintain with a small chainsaw wheel sharpener, or just consistent hand filing. Granberg also makes a specialized milling chain with cutout teeth to ease the removal of the cut chips. One can use a large tooth full or semi-chisel chain for ripping rounds, but it has to be very sharp, the wood must be green in my experience, and the chain has to be at least a skip tooth chain. A full skip is even better, but requires constant attention to sharpness. Small wooden wedges are a big help in keeping the kerf open. If the kerf closes, then the cut material builds up in the cut.
nice vid, appreciate your honesty. All round good work. Love the look of all those logs just waiting for you in the background. Are they still there now?
www.amazon.com/shop/ctscaper
Awesome, the fact that you were willing to take the leap forward is what’s important.
This 8yr old video is still relevant today. Thanks.
As I sit here at my desk job, wondering why I never knew how cool milling is, it's soothing to watch this.

Just a good honest man trying a thing out for the first time , thumbs up from me
Nice job for first time. Good learning curve.
What a lovely video, and a great help to someone who's interested in milling their own lumber.

Good work. Imagination and innovation- without which; the desired results are a world away.
For a guy like me, this is a good video. I want to mill my own. Just to be able to build around the homestead. Thanks for this
One of your best videos since I've been watching...

Thanks for sharing. It's encouraging to see a video that allows you to see the problem solving when learning a new process. Keep posting!
Glad you enjoyed it. I've got plenty of videos more current than this one showing my ordeals.
Subscribed and viewing!
If you're into this sort of thing I've got plenty of it on the channel.

Nice one. Thanks for posting this. You seem like a nice guy. I wish you all the best in your endeavours.
such an honest video! well done sir🤟
This was awesome... I can see soooooo much potential with a mill... Even the scraps off the log could be used as like a siding of a type for out buildings to make them look like a log cabin.. Pretty stinking neat.. I enjoyed watching.
Agreed, or just use the scraps for firewood and collect the sawdust for your composting toilet. Nothing goes to waste :)
Loved the video - it made me as happy as you appeared. It is not often that you find people on TH-cam made happy by simple endeavour. Great stuff.

Cool. I’d be smiling too. Feels good to make something yourself.
I like how he obviously respects how dangerous chain saws can be; taking all the appropriate precautions.
Stumbled onto your series was very good ,i am attempting to make my own but i will look into this timberjig.chainsaw mill.
I do quite a bit of chainsaw milling and have a capacity to mill trees up to 57" in diameter at the moment.

John Strickland best place to get started
That’s exactly how the old two man crosscut saws work.
I agree with R6bbie the look on ur face makes it all. I do like this vid. it shows me where i will be as soon as I get my mill in.

Its a Great feeling making lumber !!!! Keep sawing .
Just stumbled on your video ,enjoyed watching.
Cool, I enjoyed your honesty. I would be excited about making a board too.
Great video budd
Could tell at the end of the vid you felt some satisfaction at producing the piece of lumber; good series.
Great series so far sir..
I hope in the future you can get some big wood and mill yourself some really big beams!!!
Stay safe my friend!!

How about a reply to my request, plz?
Good saw! Way under rated. I have a 034 super. Nice video thanks
impressive pile of trees ! feeling some ( major ) degree of envy.
Its nice to see someone appreciate their own achievements....good job.

Excelente trabajo amigo Lake 👍
Thank you for honest comments
I loved the kid in a candy store feeling at the end. you had a nice bounce in your step! I'll bet your a pro now! Day ones are fun! CONGRATS!
Had my self a little marathon here watching your series. Loved it.
Bought one just about exactly one year ago, still in the box, ordered a rip chain this monday, got it in the mail yesterday. Problem is, my chainsaw is in my motherinlaws basement... A 3hr drive from home. Anywho, thanks for the videos! Nice to see what to expect ;)
Small update ;) Assembled my Timberjig last night, found it during a long needed shop/garage cleanup. Looks good! So, in about two weeks, I'll see how it works out. Looks promising.
Yes, none of them broke ;) I remembered your vdeo, and made sure I didn't overtighten it. Had to read it more than once. It was in swedish, but hey, Comming from Norway, that wasn't to hard to understand ;)
Ok. Got some milling done yesterday. FUN! Not perfect, but close enough :)
One Birch, about 40cm dia, and two logs of a cypress I cut down last summer, about the same size.
thanks :) I got he exact same set up as you. so yes, Timberjig. I'm thinking about making a somewhat more permanent station for the job, it was kind of low, some lower back pains, nothing to bad.
Watching from Borneo.
I enjoyed your video, looks like you had fun.
Great stuff. Great video. The real life.
Yup, build a ramp.... Mostly I cut logs for making bowls, not lumber. Cutting directly into end grain is much harder than cutting it in a ripping motion, like at 45 degrees or so. Wish I had some of that ash with the brown heart in it. Can't keep bowls with that in it on the shelf....

I just love the sound of Ash wood. It's so musical.
Funny How the simple things can be the most satisfying.
Well done and great Vid. I have been thinking about this and now you have given me a realistic perspective and a good heads up on what I need which I didn't realise.
I know know this won't be as easy as often made to look but isn't that what makes the effort worthwhile.
Thanks for the Vid.
That J hook is used for picking up square bale hay, also known as a hay hook. Find them cheap at flea markets
Its a great video and very I didnt mean to come accross negative that was not my intentions. I thought there was probably a reason, and was curiouse . I love my chain saw and would get a kick out of using one of these. and BTW very smart idea on making those little red things to keep the logs from rolling.
Great little setup, and very useful info! But I think your chain was getting stuck because you need to wedge the gap.
I appreciate your honesty. With a horrible spine every movement I make can not be waisted and needs to calculated. Approximately how long did each cut take both with cut and skip chain?
really inspirational thanks! Will go from there :)
Great work , thanks for the video 👍
I'm going up to my family home in Scotland prob. the end of March as the weather's being a pain as per usual, to start building a small cabin and will be using a portable mill, now I haven't seen it yet but I have watched a fair few videos on different types. This video is especially informative, as I didn't know about the different chains etc, I'm hoping my sister has got the mill that has the ramps that grip the log and the setup that you fit the chainsaw into (so I can't mess up and cut myself in half...yikes!)

Good job bro 👍👍👍
I appreciate the info about the rakers, I didn't know that.
Thanks alot for the video...persistent pays dividends
Good job masters 👍👍👍

Ok thanks, I wish there was somewhere this stuff was displayed here in Alaska.
Maybe at our State Fair.
Good try. I am thinking and wishing to do my own milling for my future project.
Awesome video dude!
Thanks! I was good watching you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
nice one... professional video.....
Buen sistema sencillo y muy efectivo Saludos
Use chisel bit (square shoulder profile) chain and file the tooth angle to 5 degrees. Rakers depth needs to be set to take a bare minimun depth of cut (this will smooth your cuts and keep the chain cooler )
Also ripping requires additional oiling to the chain. Use the manual oiler often.
Get a power head with a minimum 70cc.
I recommend Husquavarna as the have a higher chain speed than Stihl.
Cheers and be safe
give me contact no
I want to this macin

nice vid, appreciate your honesty. All round good work. Love the look of all those logs just waiting for you in the background. Are they still there now?
That's a good video Sir
Cool bro. Thanks a lot I am at the learning stages. Still to cut a board.
Good thing you showed putting gas an bar oil in, we might not of known you had to do that.
Could you use a wedge to keep the blade from binding up.
Thanks for not editing sowing as it is well done m8 😊
Like your vid.....1st board is the most expensive one......thanks
That's very true.
