In this video I assemble the Granberg small log chainsaw mill. I also assemble a first cut rail system from Amazon and grind my own ripping chain with a budget chain grinder. A chain saw mill is the perfect solution to high lumber prices if you have projects to complete. I am lookin forward to using this chainsaw mill to make all the lumber that I need for those outdoor buildings and projects that I have I have been putting off due to absurd lumber prices that we currently have to deal with in the United States.

Love that chickens timing LOLOL. The Alaskan chainsaw mill is awesome. I saw your video on redoing Martin Johnson's fathers hammer it was gorgeous and a lot of work. Beautiful JOB and God's blessing to you and your wood projects.

For sure, and it let's us use the dead trees. We don't have a wood stove so it all just rots on the ground.

You know I will be here Mr. Dave. Suggestion to prevent the swoop at the end keep the logs longer until you mill them then trim to length Sir .

Looks like a good investment. I have been thinking of investing in one. Please keep us posted on your journey with it. Lumber prices are just stupid here considering I live within 300 km of a lumber mill. Spoke with one company and they are probably not going to cut logs this year. And there goes the price upwards again. Stay safe and healthy. 👍🍻

Yea there are a few mills around here also but the lumber prices have tripled on most things.

A chainsaw mill is on my tool list to acquire. I've seen a number of videos where shims are stuck in right behind the saw before it exits the log cut, reduces the wain at the end of the cut.

@MakersMovementDIY 3 жыл бұрын

I used shims on the length of the cut but I didn't think about doing it just at the end. Good idea, thanks.

If you use a full chisel chain it makes a smooth enough cut and it's faster. I use my 660 with a full chisel cross cut chain and it looks the same as my bandmill, the semi chisel chains make a washboard look I have found

@MakersMovementDIY 2 жыл бұрын

Good tip, I'll try it out. But now I have a bandsaw mill also so this will only be used for field work or logs that won't fit on the mill.

@@MakersMovementDIY I haven't seen the HF sawmill in person but I know Stewart from Breaking Free Off Grid just bought a sawmill thats made by Norwood but its their less expensive line up. Can't remember the name of it but it's almost the same mill I have for a fraction of the price I paid. :)

The 1/2 " boards that I cut cupped but the would just be siding for an outdoor structure anyway.
