So nice to watch a whole video without any music. Thank you for sharing 🇧🇻

Nice, video. Was reluctant to start a 30 minute video, but stayed for the whole thing because of all the information you share and your engaging way of showing it.

Thanks a lot for all the explantations !

The dog helping made it that much better 👍

Hey Dave just wanted to say thank you for your videos on the logosol mill. You have given me good insight of what to look for. I just bought a used M8 going through it fixing it up before I start milling.

Great video, I've been considering getting this mill recently, your demo videos are the best I've seen, well done, detailed information without all the drama, thanks for posting this

Awesome review of the F2. Makes it easier to see the benefits of this mill. Take care!

Thanks for sharing. Lots of work but very rewarding to see the beautiful lumber.

Great video Dave I clicked to just check it out and ended up watching the whole thing!! Hanks help was priceless!

This just great - I got my F2+ setup and first cut yesterday and these insights very helpful

You do a tutorial very well! Good job. Take care you three! Love the dog help!

Cool and informative little video. Especially love Hank the helper😍. He's so cute

Thanks for uploading this video. I'll wait for your other video before making my decision on what to purchase.

Great video Thank you for the in depth presentation You just sold me.

Your a great Instructor. Thanks ! 🙏🌲🇨🇦

As usual great video! Thank you for taking the time to educate and entertain all of us. I purchased the F2+ this winter and have enjoyed milling with it. Have been using the Alaskan mill for years and feel it ups my production quite a bit, definitely easier on the body once the log is on the deck. The logosol mills are great for there intended use, just have to keep them set up properly and they make great lumber! Band mills are great and far more productive, but there is just something about making lumber and beams with a chainsaw. Very rewarding for me! The quality of lumber you can make with a chainsaw surprises alot of people that have seen me cut. Looking forward to your next video. Thanks again, Matt.

This is just the thing. Not crazy expensive either. Great video with detailed explanations.

Loved how the dog helped with the log!

Excellent review thank you very much 🇨🇦

Nice video. I used to sit in a booth and run a carriage, with the log moving into the saw for a company, and it had a hydraulic log turner. I think it would be fun to have one of those mills like yours.

DOGGO!!! While I love my cats---all four of them---this is evidence of the utility of a dog. That's a good dog!!!

I was running this saw for about 2 hours at about a 30-50% duty cycle kzfaq.infoUgkxfQm1wmg0ItKDLavxj1nXtQY9HP7EF504 and it did a great job. I used the lever for the built in sharpener to clear chip buildup out more than to actually sharpen the chain. It managed to cut some hardwood stumps much larger than it's size without bothering the neighbors with hours of 2 stroke noise.

really enjoyed your video, well done

Thank you. This is really helpful.

I've been doing a lot of chainsaw milling here on Denny Island on the BC Central Coast. We beachcomb all of our logs out on the shorelines around here and then either tow them home or take the mill to the log. I run an old blunderbus Stihl 090 @ 135cc, with a 42" bar with which I can max out my 36" Granberg mill. I do often get logs that are more than 36" but it gets pretty tough dealing with extra huge planks. Sometimes, when I get a really nice log, the live-edge planks can be worth more then $1000 each. As a chainsaw miller, and looking at the sheer volume of wood you're cutting, I expect you are breathing exhaust from time to time. I've been searching for some sort of face mask that takes ordinary air from 20' away and blows it into your face. So far, I haven't found a suitable product, so I guess I'll have to make one! I just love what you two are doing out there, clearly a very busy, lifestyle with plenty of good clean hard labour. And clearly, you're both having fun! As a kid, I lived in Wawa, Manitoulin and Sudbury, so I'm very familiar and nostalgic for the forest you're living in! I've got a bunch of KZfaqs of some of my milling adventures -check Ingmar Lee.

Way to go Hank.. What a smart dog

Very good and information. Thanks

Really Neat! Thanks for sharing

Good taper cut explanation

Thnxs 4 sharing 🇺🇸

I love the videos. I was wandering if you could show how you make a level surface to dry the logs

Great video. I got a Logosol F2 as well but I got the electric saw. Have made a few videos if you are interested. Have an amazing weekend, Andreas 🇸🇪

Good job

Good instructor

The water cooling option sounds interesting. Is this basically using water to cool the chain/bar?

Thank you for explaining the process. You and your family must be proud of your efforts, that is some great looking lumber. Will you show us what you have built in some upcoming videos?

hey man, great video. do you have a link for that auxiliary oiler you have.

ever thought to start your cut on top of the bar and eject the sawdust opposite the power head? would require swapping ends with the winch.

Great content with your videos. Especially with the "scale", thinking of the last cut with the first cut. What do you use for bar lubrication? You referred to it as "water cooling". Thanks again.

Great video thank you. Question: I’m considering buying an f2 to mill wood on a steep mountainside. This would require me to dig out spots for the legs to be level. My question is does the f2 require exact leveling to produce square planks? I’m curious if it might twist if not leveled perfectly. Any opinion on this?

What kind of saw do you use? And what model/size?

ow my back, living vicariously through home brew milling. how many cuts per chain?

where can i buy the setup you have in the video searched amazon dont have anything like you ! thanks great viodeo !!!

Looks great! Seems like I’d need to get a bigger dog.

Hank. Number 2 helper lol

Where did you get you special screws for your blade

Hi Dave. When you set up the mill did you set the chainsaw bar to be perfectly parallel to the log bed? Or does the bar need to be canted away or towards the log bed to make a straight cut? Thanks. I really enjoy your vids.

Did you have to readjust your rails?

How do you install the chainsaw bar nuts that come with the logosol. My 661 has a cover with nuts attached and idk how to remove them.

Is that chainsaw magnetic at the end of the bar? Or is it screwed in some how. I’m asking for a friend

What make and size of saw do you use? Thanks, really enjoy your videos!

beautiful to watch. thanks

Thats a great mill except for one thing. You have to have a log that fits the mill. You need a couple people or a forklift device to get the log in position. That sucks.

How many sharpens on a log this size?

I thought the kerf on a chain saw was 3/8" or bigger. That 1" board scale you wrote on the leg of the mill is known as a 4/4 scale. I believe you can buy versions of that scale for all of the common lumber thicknesses. 5/4, 6/4, 8/4", etc.

My logosol M8 sawmill can be set to do either 1/4 inch clicks or 1/8 inch clicks. Can the F2 sawmill do that?

So I contacted Logosol about ordering a F2. Got my quote and I must ask, how did you justify the price? I can order a quality bandsaw for $1,000 less than the F2 WITHOUT the chainsaw included!

how does the saw mount on with captive bar nuts?

Is your web store still operating?

Sir im working in industrial n im slasing or cutting your lumber in 10 minute on big bansaw machine,,,,

What saw is that

how much is that setup cost ?? id like to look into one

Very informative and entertaining video, would you mind sayin make of mill and approximate price ….please. And I did subscribe. Lol. Thanks. Craig Pa

dog comes over to help

Where can I order that exact same chainsaw mill set you have ?

I've been wondering on one of these. I have a granburg mill and I'm not sure of the advantages to buying one of these. I feel like I'm way more mobile with the granburg. Just wondering because I like the thing, just don't know why it could be better. I also like my string on my winch. It's real rigid and not spongy. Spongy causes me the saw to have to back off to much. Just picking your brain.

Where is your safety equipment when using the chainsaw?

How it works

You can level a log alot faster if you use a water level.

What are we suppose to do if you are cutting a very big tree

Podían ser las esplicacion en español

Can Stihl make a band saw attachment? This would make less waist on the cut depth.

Where can buy in USA

I love this concept, but I have no physical way to lift the logs up on to the table

I reckon these could be easily made from 8020 aluminium 🤷‍♂️

En español por favor el vídeo

We are on manitoulin. We have a homestead. Family of 8

Looks nice. But the price is ridiculous

I can hear the commercials fine but can barely hear you. Anybody else?

Expensive, for 1k more you could have a real decent motor driven mill

New to your Channel been looking for far away to cut my hardwood logs into Lumber to build a house to be off grid is there a way you can send me information about that and can it be ran off of a generator actually all the information you can send to me about this I would really appreciate it include any price of what it cost for one of these it is hard for me to be on my knees all the time most of the Alaskan Sawmills I've seen people has been on their knees using them so any information you can let me know of I would really appreciate it thank you enjoy watching your video

Dude, you won the wife lottery.

I think they are over priced myself. Bascilt glorified dimensional aluminum

who needs a gym

Your taper-compensation does not seem right. You are compencating quite a waze in on the log, compared to the top where you measured. Top vs loglifter is not the same, especially for longer logs! You are lifting the top a bit too much that way. Your first cut vs your third side cut reveals what I am talking about. The taper is way more visible on the third cut, because you liftet the top to much on your first cut. A simpler and more accurate method would be do measure AT the loglifters. You don't even need the tape-measurer. Just wind the log up until it flushes with the top of the built-in scale. Read the difference on the guides, and compensate with half the difference. :-) My method is assuming the logs are fairly straight. If the logs are curved, it wont work all that well. BTW, I own a 5m F2+. The longer, the more this will be visible. - Otherwize great video! 🙂

DO NOT BUY THIS MILL IF YOUR SAW HAS CAPTIVE BAR NUTS!

Ok, that system is stupid. Why on earth would anyone design portable sawmill that requiers you to lift logs upthere???

You can level a log alot faster if you use a water level.
