How To Build A Sawbuck - The Best Way
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ต.ค. 2019
- Use these easy to follow instructions to build your own sawbuck for cutting firewood. A sawbuck elevates your firewood off the ground which reduces back pain and fatigue, allowing you to cut firewood quickly and easily.

You are one of those rare people who can teach and not make folks feel stupid.Nice job,sir,
Thank you so much for the kind words! I hope you love your finished sawbuck.
Just made one of these. Really nice design, only took an hour or so to make. Very rugged! Thanks for such such a detailed and accurate video.
What a wonderful instruction video. I threw away all my other more complicated ones. I can't wait to get started. I thank you and so does my chain saw blade. Lol.
Cheers from Australia - I’ve made one of theses off this instructional video and it’s bloody fantastic. Especially the fold up design. Makes it easy to throw in the trailer and take with me down in the paddock to saw those hardwood tree limbs lying on the ground. Saves back ache, chainsaw biting dirt and most of all, added safety from chainsaw grab and throw back. Thanks so much for making this video and sharing your design.
That's awesome! Thanks for the kind words and I'm glad you like the sawbuck.
Quality video upload. Clear concise and no egoThanks man.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video! I love the folding aspect of this. I am in my early 60's now but can remember in my youth, helping my father cut firewood logs on one exactly like this. The only differences were it didn't fold and it had an extra support towards the bottom on each side. Thank you for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This has got to be the best sawbuck tutorial on YT. Well done sir!
Wow, thank you so much!
Perfect. We will be building one of these for our Scout Troop since we host the two-man saw at all of our Scout outings. We use a ratchet strap to secure the log so I will most likely put a "kick step" down a bit further so we can wrap the strap around it. Great design, easily done.
Thank you and I hope you love it!
Very detailed hence making it easy to replicate thanks
I used your instructions and built one of these. I had a pile of small tree branches are some trunk left over from two dead trees. The sawbuck has made this part of the job so much easier. Thank you.
You're welcome. I'm glad it was useful!
Excellent instructions...thank you!!!
Just built mine--thank you!! Super quick and easy to put together. Now I can get started cutting down a dozen holly trees in my back yard. Cheers from Oregon!
Glad I could help!
This is a great tutorial video! Thank you so much. I just made it, with two changes to your original: 1 I made one 24 and one 12 inch section instead of two 24" sections (I have shorter pieces of wood so I thought that would work well) 2 Because I am going to use it on both ends, depending on the length of the pieces of wood, I pointed the bolts on both ends inward instead of all pointed into the same direction. We will get good use out of this for many years, thanks again!

Thanks for doing this video. I am an old retired guy who has always harvested my own firewood, but I has noticed the constant bending over bothers my back. So I looked online and found your post. I built a sawbuck today using your example. It works like a dream and certainly made my day a lot more enjoyable. Thanks from Canada.🇨🇦
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for your quick, straight to the point, easy following video!! I'm going to make an exact one from wood scraps i got from a basement demo. Just picked up a lot of free firewood logs and i'm going to need a sturdy Sawbuck!! Thanks again my friend!!
You’re welcome and I’m glad you liked the video!
Thank you! I built this and it works great!
Thank you for the great demonstration and sharing your knowledge with us. Take care.
Thanks for the great video. Just made a sawbuck out of scrap lumber and it is awesome! Wish I had made it long ago. :) Such a savings on my back.
I have watched other videos trying to teach how to make this. Yours was clear. Provided material and measurements.
And you have a fantastic way of conveying the subject. Wow.
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
Made today. Very happy thank you . I made the centre one's 3ft. It was a bit heavy! But not bad for a lady who is 59 year old that has had cancer and has a hernia 😊
Yeah it’s a little heavy for sure but it’s stable! Glad you like it.
Just wanted to say thank you for posting this....was looking for something to save hubby's back when cutting logs and came across your video. For the same price as a cheap flimsy bought version (would have been cheaper but had no spare lengths of timber at the moment!) and about half an hour to make I now have a very sturdy version that is absolutely perfect. Very clear and easy instructions.
You’re welcome! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
I agree with the comments about your teaching style. The type of mistakes I make would include screwing into the wrong 2x, and then not being about to figure out why it won't open.
I appreciate your attention to detail and the task analysis. Buying the materials for this task today.
Thank you! I hope you enjoy your sawbuck
I have an 8-year-old grandson who is wild about building things. I sent him a link to your You Tube video to watch it ahead of time. Thanks.
That’s great!
Thank you for the video - Built one of these with my son last weekend. It works perfectly. I appreciate your taking to time to share this with everyone.
Great to hear!
Why did not cut immediately 30°
This is the simplest and best design that I have seen. Thanks.
You’re welcome!
Can't wait for the video showing the build for the mitre saw stand so you're not constantly bending, straining your lower back.
Wait! What? A saw stand too? I need more wood. This is great. Can you tell I'm new?
I made this 1 1/2 years ago, heavy duty works great. Came to revisit. Thanks again
That’s awesome and thanks so much for coming back to comment!
Made a shorter one with my two sons. The 18" and 19¼" measurements were a great help even though we're more used to the metric system. Thanks a million
No problem. I’m happy to help and I hope you love it!
Thank you for these instructions. I made the mistake of purchasing pressure treated 2x4's and did not realize it would add so much weight. When completed it weighs 75 lbs whis bit much for an older man(77) to move around, you may want to give the folks a "heads up" that it is very steady but does weigh a lot. Thanks again!!!!!!
You're welcome and thank you for the suggestion! You're correct, pressure treated does add some weight but over time it should lighten up a little as the wood dries out.
I built this today. Works great and my back thanks you.
Perfect!
Wow this is the one of the most amazing projects I found , that I need for a my own home.. thanks a TON !
Joe
You’re welcome. I’m glad it was helpful!
Just finished mine, thank you so much for making this info available!! I managed with a speed square and a circular saw without an issue. Cheers!
No problem. I'm happy it turned out for you!
Thank you for this excellent video! Worked perfectly; I wish I'd learned how to do this 20 years ago!
Glad it helped!
Thank you for a great video. I just finished making one of these using your instructions. It made cutting my firewood soooooo much easier.
Awesome!!! I'm so glad to hear you like the plans and thank you for the kind words.
Thank you for the easy to follow directions tutorial. I just made one myself and I’m pleased with how it turned out. Now to get to work. 👍
That’s great!
Thank you for this tutorial. It went together as presented and will serve me well considering the number of ash trees on my property!!
That’s great! I’m happy you enjoyed the video :)
Great video - very instructive and easy to follow!
Glad it was helpful!
Just made this. Went together exactly as shown in the video and is working perfectly for my needs. Thanks.
Awesome I’m glad it work out well for you!
Thank you. I made one today and it is a huge labor savor.
You are so welcome!
Excellent tutorial, thank you from 🇬🇧
You're welcome!
A pleasure to follow your designs and executions of the toy making ! Thank you ! Do some more toys !?.????
More to come!
Even I can do this. Great video and super clear instructions. Thanks.
Glad it helped!
For three of the 8’ers why not cut the middle at 30° so there’s one cut not two. Another tip is to use 1/2” fastener, easier to find, lower cost, just as strong. Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic, and a great method. I'll build a couple of these using your technique, thanks for posting!
You're welcome! Enjoy!
I just made it. Simple to build, great video. Thanks.
You're welcome!
I am by no means a handyman, but thanks to this video I made one of these in less than two hours. Your instructions were very clear and video really enhanced it. One thing I did was to move the center X closer to one end to trim logs that are too long for my stove. Thank you.
You're welcome!
Great video clear and easy to follow, my sawbuck works great thanks
Great to hear!
Good strong example of an old trick, thanks for posting, very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Just finished building this - Great quality video . Well designed ans works perfectly
Thank you! I hope you love it!
I have completed the sawbuck from this video. Take the recommendation on using Outdoor Screws 3 1/2 T 25 Star made my life much easier than the wood screws I had laying around. I used 1/2 inch instead of 5/8's for hex bolt I am not sure on the washers since the hex bolt was longer and thread stopped before the wood when using the 2 bolts. As this was first time doing I had to do a little rework to get it right. I have a few washers on each hex bolt between the board and nuts not sure if I should remove them or keep them as noted adjustments. I used my new sawbuck it was great. Thank you for the instructions.
You're welcome!
Ha! this is the original that everyone is copying. Thank you.
No problem!
Just finished mine too! It came out greT. Thanks so much for the video!
You are so welcome!
Just found your channel and watched your Sawbuck video. Thanks for the clear video and instructions. Well done and much appreciated!
You’re welcome and thanks for watching the channel! I really appreciate it.
Thank you for the simple east o follow directions I made this and I’m not a carpenter.
Glad it helped!
Great plan. Can’t wait to make one this year for the cabin. 🙋🏻🇨🇦
Thanks! You'll love it.
Made one yesterday, before I watched your video. I put 2 pieces of wood on inside, but the problem was I had strap down the wood kept lifting up.So thank you. I'll take that part out and see how it works. Thank you again.
You're welcome!
Love your woodshed in the background.
Thanks! I love it. I actually just added on to it this spring which doubled the size.
superb! well presented. amazing design - with thanks from the UK
Thank you very much!
Great content. Please make yourself a work table for that mitre saw
Thank you!
I love the simplicity of this design. I'll give you a final report after I've built my sawbuck.
Thanks! I really think you'll love it.
Built one today! very easy to built and it works great. Thank you
Great to hear!
Just built one and I think it’ll be very useful. I may move the center X to accommodate smaller logs - I only need to supply a fire pit. I get a lot of pleasure from building things and your excellent directions made it especially enjoyable. Thanks from Maine!
Thank You!
I was thinking to do exactly the same - move the centre X for smaller logs. How did yours work out?
@@JardinFoto It worked out great - I also swapped the orientation of the middle cross-pieces to make one of them closer to the end cross-piece on one side (which made the other one further from the corresponding end cross-piece on the other side).
@@piquef Thanks, I'm going to build mine today.
Very, very, very nice!!! Congratulations on such a simple and yet especially workable design. I’ll build one, even tho it will see little use, but just the same will save my back, my chain and possible my leg(s). Cool.
Thanks!
Built this today. Incredibly easy and works brilliantly. Thank you
You're welcome! I'm glad you like your new sawbuck!
I’ve just cut a load of wood at home and boy did it wreck my back!! I’m definitely making one of these for next time. Cheers 👍
You'll love it!
I was going to make the pallet sawbuck but I’ve decided on the 2x4 version. Thanks! 👍🏻
Glad I could help!
Great video, useful, enthusiastic, good job, Greetings from Cornwall, UK
Thank you very much!
I have an old one with lichens growing on it made of rough 2X6. I plan to use your design but make it a few inches taller for use by tall people. My method of measure/cut is to lay the log on the sawbuck and mark all 18" lines with a tape measure and chalk starting from the big end of the log. Then 2 pieces per end and switch ends to keep long logs in balance. By marking all lines you can see interference on the uprights beforehand and shift the log a bit to right or left.
Thanks for a clear presentation.
You're welcome and I hope you love your new sawbuck!
Totally agree with Terry Clark.
Just finished making one of these. Good job.
Awesome! Thank you!
Very good video!
Thank you and I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Made this sawbuck today. It’s looking good! Tried it out and worked well. I used pressure treated wood and the whole thing was very heavy bc of that. I opted to not use the second horizontal cross piece just to add less weight to it. Maybe I’ll add it after the PT wood dries out. Thank you for the video.
You’re welcome and I’m glad it turned out well for you!
Thank you for this easy video!
Glad it was helpful!
About to build one here in Oz. Advantage of being brought up both Imperial and Metric is equal fluency in measurements... :)
I use a tape measure with inches on one side, mm on the other.
26 years old here from PA, and this is my first winter utilizing my wood stove to heat my first home and it’s every bit of nerve wracking worrying about running out before winters over because I know I don’t have enough. Back up source of heat is an oil furnace but that crapped out on me last Wednesday before thanksgiving along with the plumbing backing up so it’s been hard thus far, but determined to make it work and hopefully someday have a nice supply like you have built up for yourself! Great work, and nice video! you got yourself a new sub
Thanks for the kind words and the sub! We've all run out of firewood at one time or another and home ownership can be tuff for sure. I've found that cutting early in the spring just as the snow melts off works the best for me. Then, when I think I have enough firewood I cut about 50% more. That allows for extra cold winters and longer burn time if needed.
Firewood For Life Thanks for taking the time to reply and lend some advice! Hope you and your family have a happy holiday season
Sgt. Budz been doing for 14 years, just look at it as a fun activity. Heating the house with an outside Wood Doctor furnace and an inside insert. Things that help to make it easier are a small diesel tractor with a front loader and a splitter. I have about 16 acres and always seem to have standing dead trees. It’s always a work in progress! Good luck, Dave.
Dave Kana thanks Dave! Just got done splitting my wood for the night and at first it was more of a challenge but it gets easier every day I go out and practice swinging the axe. Definitely a satisfying feeling
Sgt. Budz that’s the attitude! I don’t mind the cold, I’m in NE Ohio. It does get easier!
Nice simple strong build most usefull 👍👍
Glad you liked it!
Clear, concise. V nice and simple.
Thank you. I appreciate it!
Yessir, I agree wholeheartedly with Terry Clark! There is nothing I can do to make it better 😉! I don’t think I’ve ever admitted that 🤔…
Thanks for checking out the channel!
Thank you!
You bet!
Awesome video, made my own in a few hours
Nice work!
Aye thanks alot just built my saw buck today im gonna love it !

One of the best videos thanks
I’m glad you liked it!!!
I am making one today thank you for the video!
You're welcome. I hope you enjoy it!
Excellent video.
Thanks for sharing, I've already built and used (2)in two different locations. 😎👍🏾
Excellent. I’m glad you like them!
Subscribed! Looks like a must have sawbuck, definitely worth considering, thanks, Dave
Thank You!!
Very good!
Thanks!
EXACTLY what I was looking for.
Great! Happy to help.
Thank you
You’re welcome!
tried all kinds of saw horses but theres still nothing to beat this design simple is always the best
Thank you!
Thanks for video really clear instructions 👍
You’re welcome. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for this! I made a quick version using bits of old wood and screws instead of bolts but it seems to do the job!
Perfect! I’m glad you were able to benefit from the video!
Great job! New subscriber. Furnace went out and relying on my firewood for a few days.
Welcome aboard!
Wow, that is perfect, with super clear instructions. I’m going to make me one of these superbly designed sawbucks, thanks. Liked and subscribed!
Awesome thank you!
Really easy to follow. Thanks
Thank you! I’m glad you liked the video.
This is good, you have made a perfect video. Now can you make something that will get the logs up on it for me. Lol.
Thank you man
You're welcome!
Pulp cord? Here in Michigan we can get 20 at a time,( big trucks legal to 164k lbs over 11 axles) i just climb the pile and work from top down. If it hurts to bend over get a bigger saw and longer bar. Works for some but i try to put my hands on firewood twice, once to stack second time into the stove
Nice dude, thank you
No problem!
