I have a portable mill that I picked up a few years ago. As far as I can tell it is ALL homemade from plans that www.procutportablesawmills.com sells. I cut mostly pine and white cedar for my log home business. I have had several saws on this mill and I just love it. I have had problems with saw bars.My question is,I am putting an oiler near the tip and wonder about using a mix of soap and water for cooling and lube, still using the bar oil in the saw.I have used a dishsoap bottle and shot it at the bar,it sure cleans the crap out of the bar and chain.If I knew how to post pics,I would.
I cut mostly pine from 12" to 30" and max length is 16'6". Anybody ever tried water,like a band mill?Will this hurt my bar or chain?
