*Chainsaws can be very dangerous. If you are not experienced with a chainsaw find someone who can instruct you: be very careful. Safety is YOUR responsibility.
Forget the logs! I paid attention to the log holder (I forget what it's called). I've already cut the wood for it. It will be finished tomorrow and then I'll cut my logs! Thanks for building it and letting it show on this video.
looking forward to part 2, what you do to prevent cracking just after you chainsaw the logs, and the process forward. Thank you for doing these great instructional videos!
great video, looking forward to the rest of the series. ...
I really like the stand you made for holding your logs while you cut. I'm going to have to steal your design. ...
Thanks Sam been looking for video just like this just started to turn green wood and have a nephew of mine who works for a tree cutting company saving trees for me so this is going to be a great help.
Nice video, Sam.
You explained it well.
The good is when you can "read" a tree (how it has grown or how it can look inside when a branch fork is there).
Thanks for watching
Sam
Good video. Looking forward to seeing the remainder of the series.
I was thinking, "Wow, that's cool, he lives in Wyoming too!" Then I went to your website and saw we were in the same town, haha, Funny coincidence. Just thought I'd mention it! Have a good one.
JustinYes that is very weird. Are you a wood turner.? We are always looking for new members for our club. Let me know if you're interested. My email is Samand cheryle@gmail.comSam
that stand for cutting the logs with the chainsaw looks so helpful. I need to make one so im not bending over, cutting on the ground all the time.
I know I am quite off topic but does anyone know of a good place to watch new series online ?
@Albert Jesiah i watch on FlixZone. Just search on google for it =)
Sam, thanks for sharing all your tips with us. I like your very simple stand. Most that I have seen were modified sawbucks and more difficult to move from one place to another. One point that you didn't mention but it goes without saying is the need to keep the chain very sharp. (At least every two tanks of gas, oil mix).
Love the dog you had a great demo I got a lot out of it. Thank you

Hi Sam,
As always, good tips. I had a old Stihl Farm Boss that the carb went out. Bought a new Stihl MS 261-CM. Great saw, 18 inch bar. I need to build your stand. Pet Coco for me. Best, Bob
Hey Bob
Thanks Sam
Get the number off of your carb and buy a new one on EBay for usually less than $20 ! They have new fuel line too. THAT might be your entire problem... the fuel line. It's an easy fix for a do-it-yourselfer ! A whole lot cheaper than a new saw !!
Great! Can't wait for the next installment :)
Yuval.
Hello from Salt lake City. I have a 291 with a 20in bar.
Thanks for this video
Nice stand for cutting logs. I'm going to copy your design thx
Thanks, copy away and be safe with that saw. Sam
I have been using a skip tooth regular chain on my electric chain saw. I just heard about a ripping chain for longitudinal cutting logs in half. They are supposed to do a faster better job. Anyone have any experience with ripping chains?
I have some really hard large olive logs and 2 eucalyptus pieces which is like iron wood hard.
Most of the wood I have is dry oak
glad to see that i'm not the only one who has the long cut shavings get clogged up to the point they're wedged in there......
Good Morning Sam! Great video! Hope I didn't take pieces you had plans for ...... that crotch made one beautiful bowl!!
Thanks for sharing.
Take care, Dave
I got more wood. I will never get to it. Sam
Hi Sam,
what kind of birch tree is that? Looks like a poplar.
Thanks Sam.
I like your stand so I have watched this one a few times trying to figure out your dimensions. I feel I need to build some thing like it. Thanks!
I actually made a really much better log sawbuck. The video will be out in about two weeks. Sam
@@WYOMINGWOODTURNER Thanks Sam!
I built the platform similar to the one you had to cut my logs. Works really well and is safe. Thanks for the idea!
I have the same saw, Sam, with a 20" bar. Sure beats the Poulan I gave to my brother.
Can u send me plans on that stand? It looks perfect. I can get some 70x35mm pieces, do I make 4 corners, then v cut the tops, and 2 center pieces n bolt that together? WIth a base I presume is wider. Thanks
Sorry, I really don’t have plans for this. It’s pretty simple. It should be customized to your height and maybe the size of logs you cut. It really isn’t hard to make. Thanks, Sam.
Is your chainsaw new or is it that clean? As a new turner I enjoy you videos very much.
At that time it was a lot newer. Not sure why it was clean ha ha
Hi Sam. I really like the stand too. I just cut up about 10 slabs of gorgeous Quebec maple before watching your video. I cut out the piths with the chainsaw. I sealed the ends. I will turn them over the next month or two. Since it’s below freezing at night but not during the day, do you know if it’s better to leave them outside or inside until I turn them?
Thanks, Arthur
Depends on how much room you have inside. I love the really cold weather to stop the drying process. I always seal my logs really well and leave them as long as possible before I cut them up. I just cut what I can use. Sam
Sam, if you are going to paint the ends of your logs, I found a cool, cheap way to get the paint. Its at the local dump site; yes, they collectgallons of paint that noone wants anymore. They are not all without labels or dried out!! I got a whole gallon of KILZ just cuz I asked!
Thanks, that is a great idea. I have always bought mis-matched paint from our lumber yard for $5 a gallon But your idea is even better. Sam
Cutting stand looks good. I see you cut through the pith, but pits are usually wider the chainsaw bar, so do you try to get the rest of the pith out?
P Pumpkin Yes I do get it out later when I am turning the bowl. Sam
Sam, as always, I enjoy your videos. I especially like the unhurried pace, the detail and good video work....Thanks! I'm interested in the cutting stand you use, because it looks like a comfortable height. Can you tell me whether the vertical legs are tied into a base of some sort at ground level for support or have you found that unnecessary? Looking forward to the rest of the series.
Yes the vertical pieces are tied into the base. I have screwed everything in very securely being careful not to put any screws near where I am cutting with my chainsaw. It is a simple design if you make one just make it suitable for how tall you are. Thanks Sam
Thanks! I'll give it a try. Looks like many other viewers are as interested in it as I was....
Sam, what do you mean 'tied into the base'? Does it have a flat bottom?
Birch here in New Brunswick, Canada doesn't have bark like that. Maybe you were actually cutting the honey locust you mentioned in the beginning?
Not honey locust. I know that wood very well. The "birch" ???? Not sure. I agree the bark is not indicative of birch but the wood is soft like birch. Oh well.....Sam
Sure wished I live close to you. I am in NC and tried to contact wood turning clubs in the area and nobody replies. I would love to learn more and only have RUclips as my instructor
So Sam, as a new turner myself, when you cut your logs lengthwise, do you purposefully cut to just one side or the other of the pith so it's not part of your bowl blank? Thanks for the demo.
Oh ya, and if you were to have left your otherwise great logs for turning outside for a season or two and you noticed they are checked quite a bit, are they only good then for firewood? Or can they possibly be saved by using various colored resins in say a pressure tank to salvage a cut blank? I ask because I never thought about woodturning until recent months and I have a eucalyptus tree that I cut down a couple seasons ago and the cut logs have been sitting out for the most part in full and partial shade for the last 2 years. The wood was absolutely gorgeous when freshly cut, but I had no intention but to use it for outdoor firewood at the time. Now that I'm just beginning to get into woodturning, I am having second thoughts about it.
John Thanks for some great questions. I won't go into too much detail as I could write a book.... If I have a really big log-like 20+ inches in diameter I would cut on both sides of the pith. This would be quarter sawn wood and would make nice little bowls. Otherwise i try to just cut down the center of the pith and remove some of that wood ON the lathe. As far as the checking....I most always seal my logs with some sort of wood sealer and try to leave the logs as long as I can. Then just cut off what I need to turn at the time. But sometimes I don't get to a log and it does crack and check too much to be used for turning. Sam
Thank you very much Sam for that informative feedback. I wish I had some fresh wood to cut. With that said, I take it, having only recent discovering your channel and subscribing to it because I'm greedy for woodturning knowledge, I take it you're not much into the using of colorful resins - like so many other turners I seem to be finding these days on RUclips - in an effort to take what might otherwise might become firewood and turn them into wicked bowls with colorful accents? Are you a purist from the standpoint of using nothing but wood? LOL. My wife keeps shaking her head at me because I just can't seem to get enough of working with wood - whether it's for the purpose of constructing pergolas in our backyard for shade (we live in Arizona where it gets pretty warm in the summers), scrollsawing, woodburning, woodcarving, and now.....woodturning. My power tool collection is beginning to grow again - possibly pushing us out of our garage completely. LOL. I just still can't get satisfied with just one "wood sport" she says. Personally.......I don't understand her words. I fully retired in the last year or so. I'm probably having more fun than I'm supposed to. Besides, I'm keeping the economy strong with my tool purchases, right? And I agree with what Scott Haun posted 3 years ago about your stand for cutting your logs. Cool idea. I'm definitely gonna make one of those this week. Semper Fi, John
@@johnhuggins5021 I did not actually address my love of casting resins and coloring wood. You can check out my playlist on many areas of embellishing. Here is one Casting resin

Living in Arizona ou may be a bit more limited in your selection of green or wet wood that I love to turn. Sam
thanks for the video
You are welcome, Thanks for watching
Sam
Hi Sam do you have any advise about encouraging spalting whilst at the same time trying to prevent splitting?
That is a tall order. I think if you encourage the spalting and wait too long-it will rot and go punky. I have never tried that. Sam
Very helpful video. I just bought a very similar saw, an MS271. Are you using a chain designed for ripping?
The chain is just one I bought off the shelf. I would like to have a link to a ripping' chain. Can you direct me to one? Sam
I talked to Oregon products because they make ripping chains. Seems they aren’t suggested for handheld use. You also need a saw with a 3/8” drive profile like a MS 361 which a buddy of mine has. My MS 271 doesn’t allow for that which is a bummer. The crosscut chain chews up a lot of wood.
Here is the link for Oregon products anyway.

@@waterfordrs22 Robert, thanks for the reply. I appreciate it. I have heard other comments about a ripping chain for saws. Thanks, Sam
That's a very sharp Razor
Sharp! I like that....
Sam
Hi Sam, what model number is your chainsaw and bar length?
Sorry, I am not near my shop or chainsaw right now. The Stihl saw is a farm boss with a 20" bar and chain to fit. Not sure about the model #. Sam
Hi, if you could find that for me once you are home I would appreciate it, thanks
My folks grew up in Worland
Thanks for watching Brandon. There's probably a good chance I know your parents. Sam
Sam I like your stand can you show it in a video?
ruclips.net/video/rmgOA0kbFfk/видео.html Here it is....
The first block is not birch.
OK thanks Sam
How many chainsaws does one man need
Apparently 4.
I was having trouble with my big Stihl which I have owned for 15 years. So I thought it was time for a new one. Sam
My craftsman just quit on me too
Your vids are good but in this one too much talking and not enough showing.
