I'm Jeremy Novak, I've been a longtime lurker and have learned a ton of information off this site. I'm in a engineering class at my high school and we need to design a product, make it, and test it. I will be making a chainsaw mill similar to the Granberg mill I run right now. I think I'll be adding improvements such as tool-less fasteners (like the ones used to hold bike wheels on), skateboard wheels on the chainsaw side to easily move along the log, some sort of slick plastic on the bottom of the mill so it slides along surfaces more easily, an auxiliary oiler, and a hand crank winch. Any more ideas would be helpful! I haven't decided on the capacity yet but I know it has to be capable of milling 36" wide boards and will be run with nothing less than a Stihl 661 and hopefully a 880 in the future. Anything you have in mind would help... Thanks, Jeremy.
