I was running this saw for about 2 hours at about a 30-50% duty cycle th-cam.com/users/postUgkxfQm1wmg0ItKDLavxj1nXtQY9HP7EF504 and it did a great job. I used the lever for the built in sharpener to clear chip buildup out more than to actually sharpen the chain. It managed to cut some hardwood stumps much larger than it's size without bothering the neighbors with hours of 2 stroke noise.
I paid 280 bucks for a used 24' aluminum 8 in. I beam, modded my bar with threaded rod, circular aluminum spacers and a 2x8. I cut all the 6x8 and 8x8 beams for my barn from wood off my property right where I cut them down and dragged the finished beams to the pad I put it on. I traded a bunch of 20' oak logs and some welding work to the Mennonite mill near my house for all the 1x8 siding, roof purlins and second story flooring. So for under 1500 bucks including fuel, craigslist windows and some labor from HS kids I have a 24x36 foot post and beam barn. It'll be another grand for roof metal and trim when summer comes and it's done. All that for less than this contraption
brilliant. i have two. started our sawmill business on them until we could afford industrial machines. will use mine at home until i can’t start a saw anymore.
Let the haters hate on price.. That is a beautiful piece of engineering. Good on ya. I can think of a couple situations it is not only perfect for, but would be worth the price. Granted those are long odds...
$2,800 for a chainsaw platform?!?!?!😂😂😂😂 For that much, I will pay a little more for a bandsaw sawmill and get a much better and bigger cut. not to mention I can mount it on a trailer so I dont have to keep setting it up and taking it apart. I like the design but damn, it's not the cure for cancer!
I've seen good bandsaw versions that start at $3,200. I bet if I was patient I could find them on sale for a bit less. For the amount of wood lost because of the chain width, the price really should reflect that.
Rick Stewart www.machines4u.com.au/view/advert/LOGOSOL-F2-Chainsaw-Mill-/404082/ $2,445 AUD, and the price isn't even listed on the Logosol site which is always a red flag for me.
No idea what you're talking about with saying there are no prices on the site. I found plenty of prices on the Australian site: logosol.com.au/chainsaw-sawmills/f2-petrol The U.S. pages says: "Shop Online! All Logosol products may be ordered online at baileysonline.com" and it has a link right next to it. Then, you can find the F2 Chainsaw mill simply: www.baileysonline.com/Forestry-Woodcutting/Portable-Sawmills/Logosol-Portable-Sawmills/Logosol-M8-Chainsaw-Mills/Logosol-F2-Farmer-s-Sawmill-4-Meter.axd The prices is listed in big red font. Regardless, it is indeed a lot of money for a chainsaw mill. I was only refuting the 1,000 dollars Josh Beck had mentioned. I am much more inclined towards this sawmill: th-cam.com/video/9fyUMNAjVas/w-d-xo.html
just make a bar device like at 3:57-3:58, get a straight H-beam and put it on top of the log, rest said bar device on H beam and make your initial cut, remove H-beam and slide bar across top of new fairly flat cut wood. once youve got rough cuts you can clean it up with a table saw or whatever youve got. youre welcome.
i love the set up it would be great for me to have and it would get used quite a bit, but for $2800 no thanks. it's very costly i was thinking about $6 to 8 hundred.
That'd be perfect for smaller softwood logs, not sure how realistic it would be to get a 20" diameter walnut log up on that thing, let alone it holding the weight. Cool idea though!
Very expensive lesson to learn that bandsaw mills are the way to go. If you're going to even bother chainsaw milling just get a granberg hand held set up for $150.00. Even in remote areas it would be less time, money and effort to set up a bandsaw mill. Looks impressive on youtube but chainsaw milling is ridiculously slow, expensive, noisy and labor intensive. It just makes zero sense. Been there, done it, got a bandsaw and didn't look back.
Перевод забугорного комментария. $ 2,800 для платформы с бензопилой?! В этом плане я заплачу немного больше за ленточную пилу и получаю намного лучший и больший разрез. Не говоря уже о том, что я могу установить его на трейлер, поэтому мне не нужно постоянно его настраивать и разбирать. Мне нравится дизайн, но, черт возьми, это не лекарство от рака!
And, if you really want something permanent, you could buy the logosol sawmill, complete with nuclear powered engine, diamond chain and 50 metre thickness capacity
@ 5:40 it sure looks like the product would turn out ‘wavy’ :( Overpriced in my opinion. I love the concept. A small band mill is the ticket if you are going to spend the bucks.
I was just thinking that I have a good local fabrication shop for the tougher pieces, and the way this attaches to the saw is very nice. It makes sure you have more useable length of chain cutting.
just make a bar device like at 3:57-3:58, get a straight H-beam and put it on top of the log, rest said bar device on H beam and make your initial cut, remove H-beam and slide bar across top of new fairly flat cut wood.
i would love to see if it would stand up to my Maples. 20 to 24 inch 8 feet. not sure . looks like good quality. I agree with price point. I am sure a Norwood or HM130 max My maples would get cut. just love working with a chainsaw. if I ever get one I will post on My tube channel owe it makes out.
I sold my M8 and bought an F2+ sawmill. The F2+ (and the F2) can only do 1/4" clicks. This is somewhat limiting in terms of setting the thickness of the board you want. It's not an earthshaking limitation, but I would rather have 1/8 inch clicks.
I bought an M8. Now I wish I would have waited for the F2. Is there any way to retrofit M8 to be an F2 equivalent? I am particularly interested in milling shorter logs, which you can't do directly on an M8, though one might be able to improvise something for short logs on the M8.
Be aware that when I bought this machine it came with multiple incomplete parts. I emailed logosol and they didn't even seem to know what a tapped hole was. Luckily I happen to be a machinist and was able to finish the incomplete parts with no help from logosol. Unless you have access to a machine shop, I would definitely think twice about purchasing this product. The customer service is just awful and they do not stand by their product.
is this ultra portable sawmill available for sale in Canada. Also will it work with a Stihl MS 461 chainsaw. I am looking to cut in remote location. Basically transport the mill with a snowmobile or side by side via trailer. Basically assemble when on location then disassemble to move to next group of trees. 5 to 9 meter logs and lumber. Also interested the orange colour pole and bracket that connects to chainsaw bar and carriage.
To bad that in Sweden you are not allowed to cut down trees in the forest you own without government approval, even thinning to get firewood must be reported to the government. And when you get approval for logging the eco fascists that has infiltrated Skogsstyrelsen (the government agency responsible) will declare you forest Nyckelbiotop (Key-Biotope) thus preventing you from ever logging or touching the area again, this without compensation.
You need to search for a approval only if you're going to cut down larger amounts of trees. However, you need to report yearly to the government on what you take down, that includes smaller trees for firewood. And you can get on the good side with the "eco fascists" by changing your logging to a selective logging system. That way you can take down trees around the forest for a longer period of time and still have the key biotopes protected on your land!
I love the narrators English. The accent is great and the words are clear
He has an accent?
hats off to the editor for hitting all the down beats on set up! bravo!
that's too funny didn't notice.
Was just thinking about how much I wanted to spend $3k to make my own cutting boards. This is the perfect solution!

Have pictures or drawing of what you did ?
its so portable! just make sure to bring your front end loader to load the size trees you actually want to cut lol
brilliant. i have two. started our sawmill business on them until we could afford industrial machines.
will use mine at home until i can’t start a saw anymore.
Wow,I do timber here,can we do partner??

It is only $1,800 for the F2 sawmill.

O Brasil precisa de vocês!!!!!!
Sensacional está ferramenta!
Wow I could watch that machine cut wood all day, something enjoyable about it. Almost therapeutic
Просто шикарное изобретение. Молодцы ребята!
I set mine up in the local park with a vest on and got all the wood cut I needed for my project
Thanks
Looks like a lot of work to set up, not to mention, you have to raise the logs yourself!
just make a bar device like at 3:57-3:58, get a straight H-beam and put it on top of the log, rest said bar device on H beam and make your initial cut, remove H-beam and slide bar across top of new fairly flat cut wood. once youve got rough cuts you can clean it up with a table saw or whatever youve got. youre welcome.
Can ya send me pictures? I have a remote log hunting cabin this could help
Wish you guys offered financing. Whew. What an awesome product. Would love to try and sell these to folks in Western NC. Thanks.
-Randy.
Nice my boss..👍
Keep safe to your freehand mill 🙂
I will be buying a Norwood chainsaw mill much easier set up and more portable !!
i love the set up it would be great for me to have and it would get used quite a bit, but for $2800 no thanks. it's very costly i was thinking about $6 to 8 hundred.

It's great for the Swiss dentist hobby weekend woodworker with too much money.
Dimana bisa saya beli logosol
Lol!
Lol!
Sounds expensive

Living the dream.
Loooool that looks like it will take an hour to set up at least.
Genial la forma de aser madera economica y comoda la forma de tramportar el equipo
В России Адвокат Егоров сделал такую же распиловку на слэбы из двух палок и пары саморезов в глухом лесу.
Who ever edited this video did a good job
As an American, it sounds very strange to hear another American say boot when referring to a trunk. Lol
sometimesifly_ lol well a trunk on an elephant is at the front 😂😂👍
@@lureguy2799 okay?
Yeah... I caught that too.....
I'm guessing he's reading from a translated script as a few things don't sound right lol
Not an American (nor a native english speaker), and even to me it didn't sound right.
Very Very Very good. Show. Thanks my friend
Where can I get those apples...

Can you fit a m880 one this logosol
Stihl MS880/881 works great!
Waw mantap...gak sakit pinggang...🖒

La neta esta bien chida tusierra felicidades
a stihl that starts in one pull? ive only seen it in my dreams
My MS 170 & MS 271 are no problem. My MS 462 is 3-4 pulls.
Maybe do some pull ups. Lay off the soyburgers.
Alat yang bagus untuk memecah kayu. Keren
I liked the concept, but I'm a bit skeptical about the squareness of the cuts 5:45
Great.what will be the cost in indian market if to be imported?
I think I would load the logs and take them to it instead of taking sawmill to them
I'm seeing all kinds of rigs like this, what with the price of lumber and all.
great stuff man!
I just imagined, that if giants exist today, they'd probably have their huge vegetable slicers to slice timber easily......hahah
Cool sawmill
Looks interesting
Good👍👍send this Logosol to Borneo......
It's strong enough "...to handle Really Heavy logs".
@ 5:40 it sure looks like the product would turn out ‘wavy’
:(
Overpriced in my opinion. I love the concept. A small band mill is the ticket if you are going to spend the bucks.
Gotta give the actor credit. He did all that work with a stupid smile on his face. Wonder how much sawdust he got in his teeth while making this vid?
Yes one of the best how can I buy and how much?" I'm in Zambia Africa.
Gostei desse modelo top
Very good
let's all come stop by at my manual sawmill, thank you all
I know what's going on my Christmas list!
Hi John!
Santa must be good in your area. Just checked the price. $3000 CDN, plus tax and shipping LOL.
Good idea
PB - I knew it would be expensive !
Hey CT - I hope you do a review if you get one.
I think you can get a HF sawmill for $2000 which uses a band saw.
c
Amazing 👍👍👍
Гениально! 👍
Best chainsaw with the best car😉
Very cool.
Nice and best
Logos is rising!
It has rope for the lift not cable
just got mine all put together and realized my saws don't work with it because they have captive bar nuts.
Why don't they have a price on all of the mills
Do I need to use a Stihl chain saw ?
How to order? Im from the Philippines. Thanks
At 5:50 on the manicured lawn with a handful of sawdust, cool
Soy de Chile y megustaria ver la forma de como compra este equipo de aserradero portatil , espero su respuesta atte Jose Paillan

Who wants 8” wide slabs?
Chainsaw mills are for big logs. HTF do you get 36” logs on this thing?
Como eu posso comprar um chacis para a motoserra
Great idea
Is it available in India?..how much machine Price?
Is this compatible with any chainsaw like echo 620pw
I saw real nice band saws at the Paul bunion show for 2800.00 American. I hope this is not close to that. Chainsaws are slow going making boards.
Thanks exlent...gud jab...
I'll take one!!
Add to the cost a chain saw of about 100 cc or more and a rip chain.
Awesome
Fits in your boot you say?
How can I get one?
My logosol M8 sawmill can be set to do either 1/4 inch clicks or 1/8 inch clicks. Can the F2 sawmill do that?
I sold my M8 and bought an F2+ sawmill. The F2+ (and the F2) can only do 1/4" clicks. This is somewhat limiting in terms of setting the thickness of the board you want. It's not an earthshaking limitation, but I would rather have 1/8 inch clicks.
I want to buy your equipment. How can I buy it??
Is this available in the phillipines?where can we buy one?
Mantap kali bang, berapaan harganya tuh?
Hola donde se compra ese equipo y precio
Can anyone tell me what type of wood that is at 1:55? that is so beautiful I want to try to find and harvest some.
Looks like oak.
Oak
Apple
I want one
Amazing

Any comments about my question?

That does NOT look like a 2 minute setup for the stand.

Kevin Noll ....SOOOOOOO FUCKIN FALSE !!! Wood permit is $25 at the local DNRC and a cutting without one is $75.
MarcBot Nope yes wwii wiped out Europe's forest. Germany is the same every tree is accounted for.. you can't even carve your name in it...
Yeesh, glad I don't live in Sweden!
If It's yours, don't ask. End of discussion.
