Lumber Harvesting and Chainsaw Milling Free Hand.
Chris and I found a standing dead tree and started milling it into lumber. It will take some practice to perfect this, but it was a fun day out in the woods!
I hope you enjoy the video.
Thanks for watching!

That guide tool is slick! Just ran straight to Amazon to buy one

Yeah, it's super handy!
Don’t waste your money on a ripping chain just buy a decent file guide and sharpen a full chisel at 5*, I paid almost $100 for an Oregon rip chain for my 30” bar and my hand file regular chain cut better. You’ll want to make sure the rakers or “depth gauges” as some call em are all bang on perfectly set to each individual tooth as well or you’ll forever be milling crooked boards…. There really is no substitution for an Alaskan mill and a section of extension ladder for a guide…. Well ok, the substitution for the granburg Alaskan mill it the Amazon knockoffs, I have one, love it, I’ve also got that same beam cutter you are using and it’s handy but the Alaskan mill just takes it to the next level of awesomeness 👍
Very cool! Would love to see more with you guys milling lumber!

More to come! Just a bunch of other stuff coming up first! I'd like to come up with something cool to build out of the milled lumber...
Cool beans. That rough lumber will work good for my rough work. :)
Liked how you did this with multiple angled cuts, I've only seen videos where people "saw" or go straight perpendicular to the log. Looks great

Thanks! I was surprised how much you can get done with a smaller saw!
There's another video on KZread where somebody affixed a small bubble level to the top of their saw so they had a reference point to keep the saw consistently level. I've never tried this, but thought that might help! Cool vid, thanks for sharing.
Damn right brothers, killed it👌🤙
Great video as always

That hail looks like snow!! 😂😂
nice video
Hail to Utmost 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Well hail...
I guess the forest canopy made it difficult to notice the storm coming in
The beauty of your film is not the cut; is to understand what the used adapter is called and where I can buy it. Does the chainsaw need to be modified or is it a "universal" tool? greetings from Tuscany (Italy)

It is called the "Timber Tuff" and I got it from Amazon. Will fit any chainsaw.
Great video. Where did you get your guide? Do you have a link?

It is easier for the chainsaw to cut board when it's a fresh tree or an old one

I think that fresher wood is supposed to cut more easily than dry wood. This was a dead standing tree and felt somewhere in between. I haven't personally done a side by side test of that though.
You never really appreciate the value of chainsaw chaps until you're bleeding out a severed femoral artery 50 miles from nowhere.

Not to keep harping on the PPE topic, but a chainsaw helmet would have helped with the hail factor a bit too.

Echo saws are way better than anything else. Huskies are very good. Stihl is the worst brand available. Stihl saws constantly require repairs just to keep running. I’ve got echo and husky saws that have been used for decades without any repairs.

I hate to tell ya bud but if you've never had to repair your saws in over a decade then you ain't hardly running em lol I've used stihl since I was a young boy started out cutting firewood with my dad for my family and yeah I've had a couple of other brand saws but it's mainly been stihl, just like anything else you run it long enough stuff is gonna break or just take a shit on ya no matter how well you take care of it it will always have its time where a part on it fails. In my opinion you can't go wrong with stihl but I will say you do have to watch out for if you buy a commercial stihl chainsaw or the usual homeowner stihl chainsaw there is a BIG difference between the 2. I do like poland saws as well but for me it's stihl. I can keep a saw running for a long time it's just takes TLC when it's needed. I ain't trying to be a prick with this comment but if you've had bad experiences with stihl then you more then likely have bought a homeowner line of stihl and not their commercial line of equipment
