When not in use turn it upside down and throw a half sheet of ply or an old door on it and have an outdoor work table too.

This maybe just as efficient as my procedure: I placed a 12’ wooden ladder on sawhorses and put my log(s) on it and cut them in between the rungs. It worked well for years. Eventually I purchased firewood.

If I was to used an aluminum ladder, I would build the sides up with 2 x 4 to prevent cutting into the aluminum

Loved the squirrels and the “I’m offended parody”! Thanks!

Great addition with the squirrels! Loved it.

You must have heard me wishing for this video! I was going to go back and find the last video where you were using this saw buck. Thanks so much for the measurements!! You're the best!!!

I'm sure you'll enjoy using it. Have fun.

I make mine with 3 of the X pieces and supports in between, doubled up where it needs to be. Been using one since the late 70's. Love the wise guy squirrels, watch out for that pine cone.

I built one 2 years ago,now I'm going to ad the blocks.Thanks.

that's the best way to build some things Love it ... reminded me of my granddad he cut wood every year he was able and extra for the seniors in his local area, the extra was free to those who were fixed income and unable to cut their own wood.... always thinking ahead and keepin it simple. Have great day and thanks :)

The squirrels added a lot of humor to the video it was a great edition. The design and the reasoning behind the sawbuck and how it was made is excellent.

500 years old is the house from Matthias Burger in the Black forest.(im Schwarzwald) in Germany in Ulm. He is a physic-teacher, a carpenter an allrounder and hath a lot of good videos on his canal. He restore this old house "Fachwerkhaus" genannt the methods are real traditionall and he works with wood, clay bricks and also metall He also has made a traditionell groundoven. Many of his "teaching" videos are in englisch and even if verry few would ever build or repair things in this old school way- watching how to do it is real fun.Greeting from Hamburg in Germany- where the Hamburgers came from. The part of Hamburg where I live (direct on the lake "Alster") is foundet in the year 1290! We also have many old house stil in function that are over 800 years old. Building traditionall makes sence! Love and greets Frank

Hello, from Florida, USA. Your comment was quite interesting, thank you. I may never build any of Boss' contraptions, but, after watching him, I could! I did use the bubble foil he recommended & I share most all of his videos. 💞👵

@@mspat8195 Boss and his wife are wunderfull. I love them. Living in a crowed full packet city Hamburg with near 1,9 millions and noisy car traffik is not the real pleasure. And because I had an work accident and I am not more finding work in my age- I have not the money to buy and build. But my soul enjoys Boss content and the way he talks verry much. In times like this there is not much hope good storys (outside the gosple)...Wachting the fake news industry in germany makes no sence (the media is gov owend and gov controlled. Like in the communist countrys of the past.

Love your squirrelly little supervisors.

Everybody should have one of those, they are really handy! The squirrels at your place have some real personality too!

Soo happy to hear good and encouraging news for you friend. For Frankie too as I know how much he means to you. Keep living and enjoying all you do and just know daily prayers are back your way. God's blessings friend...

Cool SawBuck indeed. Thanks, Boss I need a dose of Squirrel chatter this morning.

Sweated over one of those for more hours than I want to remember as a teenager. We had no chainsaw so cut firewood by hand for hours at a time just like Charles Ingalls! If it was snowing or raining (the Scottish Highlands were always one or the other!) then it was pulled into the single garage but the sawing continued. These days I have a chainsaw, just had a busy couple of days before the rains came down, but living on a boat means limited storage! Always something! LOL! "Glad you are keeping on keeping on!"

As a kid i used one with a cross cut saw that was a few moons ago always liked your videos enjoy your weekend.

Yesterday we stacked up hickory wood and then hauled some to our neighbor’s fire pit. Wish we had had one! Maybe when we tackle the red oak. Thanks so much!

I used one for years that my dad built. It's due for replacement now, I think I'll add your upgrades like the double cross pieces, the skids on the bottom and the spacer blocks. Thanks Pat Cody

Another great, easily stated project for those who haven't figured out country living. Thank you

Thanks Boss, I don't know what I would do without a sawbuck, Its something that has been in my family all my life for generations. Like you over the years there has been many a cord of wood cut to keep that parlor glow glowing

There he is , the boss!

Squirrels are so funny!!!!😄😎👍😁🤣😅😂😆

One of the BEST Sawbuck designs I've ever seen in use...so glad you've posted this! : )

JudithB I built mine years ago, and been fighting it since. It is always trying to collapse because I wanted it to fold for storage, and I made it 4' long which makes it hard to keep the shorter logs on it. I see how to make mine better, so adding it to the list of to dos!!! Thanks!!!!

That is a very good example of working smarter not harder. Have a Blessed day.

Good seeing you Boss! And of course with another handy way of doing things! Love you God Bless

Thank you Joe! I built one today, works like a charm. Tested it straight away.

I’m building one today. Thank you Boss..!! You guys have a fantastic day..!!

Hi Boss oh ya saw bucks make wood processing so much easier! I’m glad to see you out there still doing it!! Take care and God bless you and yours.

Good to “see” you Boss. Thank you for your time making another great video. I burned wood for many years and still have my saw buck sitting out back. Last year I went to a pellet stove. Much more convenient for me. It works well so, I’m happy with the investment. Take care, still praying for your health concerns.

I don't know how you missed being a Hollywood movie star...haha...you're good like that Boss!!!

Always divinely simple videos with very useful knowledge. The music at the end requires playing at least twice since it is so catchy and upbeat. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Ontario, Canada.

We do too and also the Waltons.

Been wanting to build one for years, but never seem to get around to it! I cut about 6-7 cord a year and haul all the limb wood back to the house at about 6' lengths to save time hauling out from the woods. I criss-cross all of them on the ground, but it becomes a mess and a trip hazard with rounds everywhere - I think you've given me the itch to finally get one done as cutting season just started for me here in southern NH - will save time, better on my back, and the rounds should be more manageable! Hope all is well Boss!

Stack on 6 or 8 64" lengths and rip right through them. You'll love it.

I've never used a saw buck, basically because I cut much larger diameter rounds and cut them to 16 inch lengths out in the woods. However, they just opened the woods again to wood cutting and I might cut a cord of smaller diameter stuff just to try using a saw buck, after I build it of course, LOL......

Hi again BOSS A short and useful one. Good to see you looking healthier again and I hope you feel that way too. Sorry to say not here do much

Simply the best.

Easy peasy! Blessings ~

Great video Boss love seeing the squirls have a great day be safe.
