    Izzy I am a retired cabinet maker from England. I never get tired of the videos that you produce. I have absolutely no use whatsoever for a chainsaw mill, but just watching this is very inspiring. Keep up the good work my friend.

    On another note I've only been doing woodworking on and off since I was 17 and a Carpenters apprentice(I'm now 29). I've always worked for the guys who always seem to have the tool due to the extensive work we did, but now starting as a "wood-bee" carpenter by myself I don't have that luxury. Your videos inspire me to branch out and do things off the "learned path" and brother you have helped me out big time. I just wanted to thank you a million times over because I'm adapting and growing thanks to your videos.

    I'm Brazilian and I live in Brazil.
    I do not speak English and I use google translator a lot when I need it.
    So I always start watching the videos without knowing what the final result will be, what the person is building.
    Of course sometimes a picture of the final result is shown and so I already know what it will be.
    This video, I had no idea of its intention and in the beginning I confess I thought it would be a ladder. Once again you surprised me positively and I confess that when I saw the chainsaw (and now I know it's chainsaw) I gave a satisfied smile.
    Congratulations dear ... one more video of yours that deserves a like.

    Izzy, I watch your videos even if there is zero chance I will build what you are building (due to my small one car garage workshop)! Why, you might ask? Because you are very entertaining. Loved the banjo music and watching you have fun sliding the sled back and forth. The simple things in life that can make a man happy.

    Beautiful, thx Izzy !!! You said you "can't wait to get a proper rip chain in". Believe it or not, despite the fact that you are running lengthwise down the log, you are in fact still "cross cutting" the grain, not ripping. (Notice you are cutting at right angles to the run of the grain, not parallel to it and therefore creating a powdery swarf).

    Love it! One small improvement idea: A tape measure stuck on the side so you can see how far up or down you have moved the carriage holding the chainsaw. I think that would make choosing board thickness really easy. Great work, Izzy! (Edit: I wrote this before seeing the end of the video about not going crazy in the commens.)

    I believe that when civilization falls, the thing that we’ll most keenly feel, and will be most difficult to recover from, will be the loss of threaded rod.
    Can’t wait to see the details of the saw mount and the enhancements you’re gonna put on this beast. SO cool.

    Nice design, the weight of the saw is held by the sled and no bending pressure on the chain bar the threaded bar to raise or lower the saw for exact thickness of cut and you pushing on the saw the way the saw was designed the best mill I have seen especially for the money.

    Its really appreciated that you consider viewers for whom plywood is expensive. In fact in many parts of the world you cannot even get plywood at all. And even myself in the first world UK, I only tend to use reclaimed plywood because it is so expensive. Birch plywood actually costs more than solid hardwood.
