Looks and works very good. Nice job.

A grinder and paint makes a welder who ain't. Good video. I've been looking for a home built mill idea. This should work well.

Great idea 👍🏼

looks like a great rig for making some posts, cut a bicycle tire and put between the clamp and bar the rubber should grip tighter

That was pretty damn cool !

Really cool build! Thanks for showing us the 62cc in action on a slab cut. I think I'm heading to Ebay:-)>

Very well done. Thanks will build one for myself.

The best way I have found to keep it from pivoting on the bar and still keep the end open is to add a key that locks onto the bar nut bolts. Just as a side note for ya.

Very good and easy!!!

Hy , I am from Romania , and I watch your channel , I have a 37 cc china chainsaw , Yo do good job .

Maybe grind some grooves or cross hatches in the plates that clamp on the bar? It will mark up the center of the bar a little, but might keep it from slipping. Your welds look fine. It's flux core- it is what it is. Lol

You might want to add another bit of tubing half way between the middle one and the chainsaw to keep it level on the narrower logs at the start and end of the cut. I was also going to suggest drilling a couple of holes in the bar and add locating pins to the bracket that clamps onto the bar.

this design actually has a hughe advantage: it can mill both sides of a large log if the blade isn't long enough. Not sure what qualitly you would get tough

Add another bar clamp just like one you have in front of bar make sure to stay behind roller on bar tip love video bro no bs I see you tu esr try and reinvent the wheel day in and out I laugh at most building extravagant Alaskan saw mills Lol love urs simple geta the job done and u didn't pay 800 $ for it got my subscribe hit

To help keep if from moving around, you could try put some pads on the clamp so you don’t have metal on metal and/or making another clamp that has bigger bolts, and pads

Good job

Spot a wedge downstream of your cut ...that'll stop (or curtail) the back stroke of the chain from chewing another set of marks. Probably ease the strain on your jig as well.

maby a conection peace to the bolts of the handle could stabelise the jig?

Nice work

Very nice

Good job, but what caused the spark at 9:02 after you attached the ground clamp?

Very good job I am from Florina West Macedonia Greece 🇬🇷👍👌

Put another bar support at the end just before the bend, that should stop the saw from moving.

Two fixes. The first is with the saw as is with the existing bar and chain. Make a second clamp with the same basic design as the primary clamp but that can bolt to the frame. Drill several holes in the mill frame so you can move the second clamp in or out depending on the size of wood you are cutting. Yes, you'll lose a couple inches as you approach the end of the bar, but you'll gain a lot in stability. If you exceed the capacity for this fix, see the second option. The second is to maximize the use of the mill. Weld a second clamp on the end cross beam of your frame. Exchange the bar with a bar long enough to extend past the end clamp and the end bearing so the chain will run free.

The whole idea is to NOT have a bar at the end so that a 20 inch bar can mill a log 38 inches wide by cutting from each side and meeting the cuts in the middle. Both of your suggestions negate that a possibility.

It works well good

Отлично. Просто и эффективно. ,,✌️💪

good job sir

Hi Cy. Nice video and good prototype saw mill. My thought was could you replace the flat bar stock welded on your clamp back to the two bolts that hold the Oregon bar guide to the motor. The studs may not be long enough to accommodate that. Just a thought.

@DIYwithUncleCy

That's not a bad idea. I would have to make it with a slotted hole like the Bar itself so it would fit other saws but that is doable. The idea of this rig has become that I can test the ripping capabilities of any of my saws (I have 11 currently LOL)

Nice job . Just a suggestion how about welding in a flat piece of steel so that you don't have to guess that the guide frame is level with the front of the saw guide .

What is that triangle thing you are using at 11:03 in the video? I don't think I've ever seen one of those.

Just make another clamp for the tip the same as the one you did already. Shouldnt be that big of a job Cy. Ive been wanting a mill and what you just did gave me the motivation to make one;)

Jerry Stott: That is an option, but then you loose about 2-3 inches more of cutting width. He could put a guide pin on his existing clamp and put a mating hole in the bar to prevent the pivoting tendencies. The hole would only have to go through the first layer of bar, not all the way through.

Have a bar running on top of board in line in direction of the cut to keep a level begging and an ending

I see a hole in the blade at the end of the bar you could weld another bar across right above that hole and put a bolt thru the saw bar and the cross bar you put above it which would stop the bar from moving when you push on it and being at the end it wouldn't interfere with the width of cut except for a couple of inches on the ends

Hey ! Cy have you ever seen the old Haddon" Lumber Maker" were you nail a 2x4 or 2x6 to a log and attach Lumber Maker to 2x then to chainsaw and cut vertically against the log? I've actually cut 2 x 10's and 2 x 12's with this contraption & it worked pretty well with a good full Chisel Chain! : )

Dedicate a bar to that tool. Then you can make a more permanent attachment. You would still be able to detach it from the frame by loosening the bolts on your sliding T

Add another clamp on the middle bracket

Muito bom😀😀😀

tie it back to the mounts for the bumper dogs

Install two harden bolts ground to a point to pinch over the bar the point will dig into the bar

You should try the fnova on ebay 60quid hear in UK work like a beast

Better clamp? Make the top of the T out of solid or much thicker wall tube. Add some very hard steel preferably with a bit of grip surface. A bit of a file or rasp. Use bigger bolts. Use fine pitch nuts as they squeeze harder for a given torque. Double nut to keep the nuts from backing off from vibration.

Install a 2nd upright at the end of the bar

Turn it 45 degree and drill into the saw body blade

Even the texture of the wood is interesting. What's the matter with drilling a hole in the bar? I hear it's very difficult.

@DIYwithUncleCy

4 жыл бұрын

The idea is to be able to cut a log that is wider than the blade buy cutting from one end then turn around and cut from the other. If there is a bolt out there it would not do that. The answer was to make a piece that bolted onto the bar nuts that attached to the mill and kept it from twisting.

Another clamp further down the bar!!

Why not use the same type of clamping mechanism at the other end of the bar, also.

Just add another place that grips the bar just behind the roller tip-off the bar

Just a personal preference. I could get another bar and do it to that one. But I'm trying to do these things on a budget.

It's a handy device if you just need a few boards. But, a lot of people are buying and making Alaskan saw mills and investing in cheap band saw mills. (Sometimes darned expensive ones) They get the idea that they can make money selling slabs even though its an immensely slow process to cut them. What's your general plan? Is it just a hobby? Is it cost effective? Is there much demand for slab wood or is it just a passing fad?

I have a Bandsaw mill. I got the big chainsaw to cut slabs from a log that is too big for slicing on the bandsaw mil. I do sell the lumber I cut on the mill have had it for just over 2 years and it is approaching the break even point now. I don't advertise or anything just sell to people that know me, perhaps if I did I would do better. I have a whole barn for drying lumber 1 inch goes up for sale after six months air drying, slabs of course must sit longer a year or more. But I am in no rush, I'm a transplanted country boy living in the city I let the city dwellers get in a hurry, I don't.

Uncle Cy, does your muffler glow red hot? I have a 40cc chinese saw and if I cut a log with the bar buried, it starts to burn the wood. I set some moss on an old log on fire in the middle of the forest while cutting blow downs on a trail. Not good.

I do have a tack. Never thought to check it's top end rpm. It's just funny that when you hit full throttle, you can watch the muffler turn cherry red at the spark arrestor.

IMO your clamp jig needs to be made of thicker steel with a piece cut from an old file welded to each side as to hold the bar like a bench vise. It will mar the surface but you won't need to drill holes in the bar or make another clamp jig for the end of the bar. Just my 2¢. Happy milling!
