Pretty sweet! For the end of bar support, you could put another threaded rod attached to the bar and have a sprocket on the existing threaded rod with a bicycle-like chain connected across to the bar threaded rod, that way you only have to raise and lower one side and they remain parallel. I hope you get what I mean. haha!
Paul, very clever design. If your adjustment rod ever fails order a rod with Acme threads + nut and replace. Those threads are made for your purpose. Always good to see someone using the scrap pile to make something.
Always a game of continual improvements the more you use it. Coming together very nicely though. That is going to be awesome to have readily available!
seen a guy take a old law mower (down shaft motor) and mount a chainsaw clutch and bar. you might want to add something to clean the rails... keeps the sawdust from building up and messing with your cuts and wheels. facebook has a homemade sawmill group... pretty cool stuff there!! Love your videos guys!! keep them coming!!
Don't kid me, Paul! It was time to make something go "vrooooom" and you did! Nice start, btw. When you get your log bed height up and stable, a quick measure to set your blade adjustments to. FR
Top notch job! yes, the tip of bar could do with some support, or, simply use shorter bar. Also, the riser post is higher than needed, adding to the "wobble" :-)
Remember whatever you put on the end of the bar will reduce the amount that can be cut. I think I would use a clamp onto the end of the bar and althread to make that end adjustable. Looks like the bar has a sprocket on the end to engage the chain so be careful about drilling through the bar around the end.
That is awesome, well done. I was watching the end of the chainsaw blade flex and was thinking it could use some kind of support. What about a strong magnet at the end of some square tubing to keep it level and more secure. Keep the great videos coming.
As stout as you're making that thing, you might as well plan on making it bigger at some point.( I can't remember if you already said whether you are or not) It does look like you're doing a bang-up job.
Great plan and looks great..I Have many chainsaws but really want to find a electric motor that will work in place of a chainsaw. Anybody? I find it easier to bring logs to my sawmill than the mill to the logs...
Great job Paul! I hope you can find away to stop the bar from moving, I could see it. I was going to say the funny part of the video was your daughter, but you were more funny doing nothing... stay safe
When your daughter was peering over your shoulder I first thought it was Emily. You can tell she's Emily's daughter. Did you get a rip chain? You addressed my concern about the tip of the blade sagging.
Next project idea: 1. Buy wooded land 2. Cut down the trees 3. Mill the trees on your home-made sawmill 4. Build another post frame house with the lumber you milled yourself! Great work Paul! Keep it up!
Il faut mettre les boulons de fixation de la lame en haut même si ces deux boulons sont désserrés ya que les écroux qui tombe s te les boulons réstent en places
Hmmmmmm. For a "nose brace", you could build another tower (perpendicular to the one on the saw end) with another piece of all-thread, with sprockets and a chain. That way, when you lift up one end, the other goes up the same amount Damn fun turning logs into lumber and slabs, ain't it!?
I would like to send you a photo of what I have put together so far and see if you could give me some pointers. I find your sawmill to be sufficient for my purposes.
greetings mr. paul; the mill is not right unless ms. emily can run it and it cuts so good she can build furniture with her boards. is it ready?................g
As I was watching you tack the mill I couldn't help notice the kids playing on the playhouse and that did not look sturdy to me. It looked like the A post was wobbly.
Just a PSA, in case you didn't know. Sticking your finger on the top of a grinder while it's running is not a good idea, It hurts. That's all for now, carry on.

A crank winch is really nice to help pushing. A mule can pull more than it can push my dad used to say!
❤ you should go for a 3/8 Skip ripping chain it makes cutting much faster lighter on chainsaws under 5,5kw 👍
Nice photo bomb. Lol
Awesome job Paul! Great project and the final outcome looks pretty good.Well done!
Terveytta! Tama on hyva video! Kiitos sinulle!👍

Marshall
you have Golden Hands and Greate Brains!
Yes, that is awesome, nicely done!
Thanks for watching!
Great sawmill Paul. Excellent work.
Very Clever
That’s why they went to use band saws.Great viewing great wood work
Thanks for watching!

Great job. I will not be able to sleep tonight just thinking if I can build one.....................
Ништяк.
OMG. BRO THANKS I WILL MAKE EXACTLY LIKE THAT.
Awesome!

Very cool. You're amazing.
Felicidades. Muy buen invento y gracias por mostrar tu aserradero. Desde la isla de chiloe , Chile
Thanks for watching!
Well done sir...owesome
Thank you!

I'm searching all homemade sawmill I like of what you build.
Thanks for watching!
Good job bro 👍
AWESOME SAUCE.
Top notch job! yes, the tip of bar could do with some support, or, simply use shorter bar.
Also, the riser post is higher than needed, adding to the "wobble" :-)
Good job, well done. A measurement gauge would be a good addition
Good idea!
Great test run! Boards look solid. Nice engineering! Looking forward to seeing some hardwood planks!) Cheers!
Thanks 👍
supper cool
Thanks!

I’d like to see an update. I love it.
Nice! I built mine out of wood.
Cool I'm trying to do something like that too I've been cutting a lot with Alaskan mill
You could just move the capture wheels to the centerline between the front/back trolly wheels.
You're going to have to deal with bar wobble too (just saw where you mentioned that, lol). Maybe use a shorter bar.
wow saludos desde chile end the world
Awesome mill! Off topic but I noticed the skid steer in the background. Would you go compact tractor or skid steer?
That is awesome, well done. I was watching the end of the chainsaw blade flex and was thinking it could use some kind of support. What about a strong magnet at the end of some square tubing to keep it level and more secure. Keep the great videos coming.

Keep those hickory chips for your smoker
That’s awesome. Cut a couple of truck loads to sell and you could retire with the way prices are! What’s the details on that little welder?
maybe one or two pieces of angle iron right on top of the existing supports
19:22 When the boss is checking up on you
Haha she's a driver
That long nut is to join threaded rod together is not used as you are using it..
Great job Paul! I hope you can find away to stop the bar from moving, I could see it. I was going to say the funny part of the video was your daughter, but you were more funny doing nothing... stay safe

How likely is that to kick back when hitting a big knot?
I bet a Rotisseries motor for BARBQUE would work for a pulley system ?
Next project idea:
1. Buy wooded land
2. Cut down the trees
3. Mill the trees on your home-made sawmill
4. Build another post frame house with the lumber you milled yourself!
Great work Paul! Keep it up!
Only issue with using home milled wood is it doesn’t pass all codes and needs to be dried which takes a while
👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for watching!
mount a steel ruler for your board thickness
What model of stihl chainsaw is he using?
Next project: Rail Gun

Thanks for the heads up
spending that much heavy steal on a mill u might have just made a bandsaw mill...
There is a ghost in the upper right corner of video.
Part 3?
Maybe this summer!

I see whats next, Your going to make ROLLER COASTER for the kiddos are e not you!
