I do have a rheostat variable speed control. 0-2 meter per minute Greetings, mark

This is my biggest setup. It has a 87" bar and 72" cut width. Has a 12v speed controlled winch A little jumpy in the begin, because i grinded the rakers too low Mark

I have been milling yesterday, have not had the opportunity to upgrade the mill but will get to that when the slabs are in the kiln. once i found the right feed rate i could just sit down and enjoy the cutting from a distance, this way i don't have to stand in the dust and the exhaust fumes. I...

I have had a bog oak log milled, these are oaks that have been lying underground for 2000-5000 years. I also find these logs contain a lot of sand so i think it will be a pain to chainsaw mill. and because of the small diameter i have had this one bandsaw milled. the wood will easily pay for the...

Given you have two power heads I am surprised at the slowness of the cut and the amount of dust being generated. What raker depth are you using? Beech is not that hard and can be cut with much lower raker angles than standard. sorry Bob i meant to say can't, was waiting for the ferry whilst...

Hi Bob, I am indeed having some flexing in the mill. The saws are as close to the mill as possible, i have to put the tensioner in the middle or they wont fit on the bar. I am indeed going to strenghten the mill but was in a hurry to get the slabs cut so they can go in the kiln. I...

Hi Guys, I've been milling last weekend and have cut 4 slabs of the beech log by now. I lost the footage of the first 2 slabs so these are the third and fourth slab that came off. The mill ran pretty good, I've bought a tach and tuned the 084 and 880 to the exact same rpm, now i don't have the...

Hi KiwiBro, I do not have any pictures of the dry slabs yet, I have been milling today, have cut 2 slabs of the BIG BEECH log. (the log in the vid is a different log) these slabs will go straight into the kiln, no air drying so i guess these will be drying for the next 2 months at least. I...

dear sawmillers, I made a video of me using my new dual ended chainsaw mill. I have milled 2 slabs of a beech log that i partialy cut with my logosol. I had a couple of issues that i need to adress, but all in all it worked out as i expected. enjoy the video and feel free to comment! mark

thanks Bob, I'm going to make a guard to redirect the shavings/oil etc.

thanks for the link, looks interesting. I believe the logosol sauno wood kiln is based on this principle too.

dear milling friends, I have started a new project lately, I've bought a beech logs that measures 1.85 meter/ 73'' at the butt and is 5 meters long (196'') It weights 9.5 tons. I have been chainsaw milling since i was 18, so a couple of years of experience but this is my largest log so far. but...

thanks duss and seam!

thanks brad, hope someone comes by who's familiar with this thing

hey guys, found this saw on the dutch ebay equivalent. so i do not own it. the seller says it's a stihl, but i've never seen one of these before? it reminds me of an 08, but it surely is not. i thought it was a counterfeit, but the components look pretty decent build quality to me, unlike the...

hey guys, i have this weird little air chainsaw that i had lying around for sime time. i can't find any makers makers/tag on it. has anyone came across one of these air chainsaws? any info would be greatly apprechiated. the other saw in the picture is a 026 for scale. thanks in advance, mark

just ordered a 090 cylinder kit from my dealer, not cheap but i was glad it was still available. my dealer was told that the 090av is still being made in germany, for brazil, africa etc. all parts are still available expect for the complete saw..

hello steffen, i have had the crank seals replaced, but then i had an issue with the starter pawls not engaging the starter. since then i have been very busy and haven't had time to look into the saw. i am currently rebuilding 2 stihl 026C pro's. when i fix the issue i will post it here. i...

for anyone who want to build his own kiln, the sauno kiln unit from logosol would be a great and inexpensive way to dry lumber quick with great results. if i were to build a kiln myself, i would purchase one of these units for sure.
