How come the chain looks sunken into the bar rail in the last picture? I'm not sure if it's me or the focus of the picture. Is that chain the same gauge as the bar? Just curious. Also, you might check out a previous issue of Fine Woodworking by Nick Offerman (yes that Nick Offerman), re...

Do mean 28" for both? One thought I had was to use the Timberjig to quarter larger logs before putting them on the M8, as you mentioned. Would like to know the largest diameter log users have cut with both the Timberjig & M8.

I searched the forum and the tips sticky, but couldn't find any posts with recommendations on max bar length for the Logosol M8 or Timberjig (or M5 & M7). I'll be running an MS-660, only have one bar (24"), and will be dropping some 30" trees soon. Just trying to figure out how big I can go...

Arky217, I just took delivery of a Logosol M8 and was happy to find your post. Seeing you're from the Land of Opportunity, would it be possible to see the pics that you originally posted? I don't know if they are disabled, expired or what. It would speak a thousand words, but if it can't...

I have an ancient Special Edition model SS built by FXG(Paul's predecessor & father-in-law?). I've been to Paul's shop in Bridgewater, MA, where he was gracious enough to let me come in, ask questions & even let me bring a piece of knarly elm & split it right there in his shop. After I bought...

My $5 026 came w/ a flocked air filter(dark brown plastic frame). The flocking is bare in a few spots so looking to replace it for non-commercial firewood/clean-up use & would like to hear anyone's thoughts. Flocked or fleece? One dealer has a white mesh filter, is that "winter mesh"...

In North Little Rock, AR, near Lonoke Co.. I have some free range organic Pecan(might even be an heirloom variety). Probably a full cord, might even more soon.

So I inherited my Dad's MS290. Last night was the first chance I had to check it out. Fortunately, it fired right up w/ some fresh gas, so it is good to go. It has probably only burned a couple of tanks of gas, so it is near mint condition. It has a 20" bar w/ a .325 triple hump safety...

If I'm doing a regular cleaning I use compressed air, toothbrush and a putty knife. I might wipe it down with alcohol for extra credit. But if I've got something pretty much broken down, I'll spritz it with full strength Simple Green then rinse it off with hot water (I've got an instant hot...

It looks like you couldn't make it any better, but that is pricey.

Here's something kind of similar.

Harry, I second what you said on the pickaroon. I would never have guessed how much I use it. I can't take credit for buying it, my grandfather had it. I painted the head of it fluorescent chartreuse after I left it behind once. That didn't stop me from leaving it behind once more, but it...

Just saw this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pWD0DXrMtw&feature=related I can't understand a thing he's saying (my fault, not his) but it's plain enough what he's talking about. I've thought about making this exact thing using some rare earth magnets and a fiberglass driveway marker (to...

That's what I like about the design I posted earlier. With the stretchers/rails so low, they aren't as likely to get nicked. But at the same time, I understand someone might just need to slap something together quickly--if it works, it works.

Noto, I see how it works. It looks to me like you did a good job with connecting the throttle to the bar. I bet you can really cut quickly. Do you remove the saw to refuel? If so, how long does it take to remove, refuel, then install the saw? I would have two concerns using it. The...

Here's mine:

What about one like this for long pieces?

I think the center supports are there to hold the two halves after a center cut. I agree about the joinery & design. I didn't need to save space, so I just borrowed the overall design and assembled it with screws. I think it would be handy if you had to transport it for use, such as having...

I had some oversized pieces that I had to cut down to fit my insert. Other than that, I didn't have a big need for a sawbuck, but I knew it would be better to have one. The thing I didn't like about most of the ones I saw was the rails being so high. I searched for images typing in...
