Cool build. Just a few ponters, you need an emergency stop button from the operators station, a guard on the back side, a way to prevent roll back, a bearing under the frame so that the trolly doesn't tip. Perhaps a cable feed system so that the operator isn't leaning into the cut.
With these skills in welding I think you would be able to put together an electric bandsaw as well. What made you choose to do it with a chainsaw? Maintenance should be easier with the bandsaw and you wouldn't loose the amount of wood in the process. The bandsaw blades should be cheaper and lasting longer, too? Just curious, it's a great built!
I found this looking for bandsaw mill ideas, and what has occurred to me is that the blade can't wander with the chainsaw bar. Bandsaw mills are notorious for the blade wandering because the blade guides are so far apart. Putting a LOT of tension on the blade helps, but has some problems too. That's just my guess though. I'm seriously considering the chainsaw bar now too. Not sure what I'll choose, but I'm glad to have seen this great build.
This is super awesome man! thanks! but please be careful, I noticed that it started sliding back towards you when you went to unplug it. you were super vulnerable and if anything went wrong you would have been badly hurt! But again this is fantastic and a great idea!
Great build mate , I would have gone with double bars on both side for height adjustment a a safety bar fixed about 500mm back from that brace blade brace bar so it don’t roll back and cut you legs off, and maybe something to stop the rollers jumping the rails???
Man I don’t care for you standing behind that with the bar and chain exposed to your legs, but it’s a great looking design so far. Maybe a an extension bar to push and some breaks, that roll back made my heart jump 😅
you can make it self feeding really cheap. A couple of garage door springs ,cable and pulley ,and a power in - power out atv winch. I drew plans that uses the spring tension to pull saw through tree and winch pulls it back to go again. Cheaper then hydraulics. Simple design, plus I would use trailer tongue jacks to adjust saw. Top wind and chain and sprocket coupling to adjust both at same time .
Would love to see a build of that. There are surprisingly many commercials saw that also use manual push solutions(but with handlebars and a bit more safety).
Класс. Осталось только лебёдку верёвочную добавить и опрокидывание исключить. Будет как промышленная. Ещё можно датчиков лазерных для безопасности поставить.
Need a "dead-man" switch. Not sure of your amperage, but Rockler Woodworking make one. Even a household momentary switch (garbage disposal switches) would help. Put it right where you're apt to push the mill.
at minimum it needs a anti roll back system, as simple as a bicycle sprocket could work. also a big red stop button on the operator side could save a leg
You need a catch latch at the end otherwise a great way to lose your legs! 😂 And i noticed that you don't ever react to people who have some second thoughts about this design. That's a huge character flaw! 😎
NEEDS A SAFETY BARRIER AS WHEN YOU FINISHED THE CUT, the saw started moving back toward your legs. Also needs a safety cut out switch if it moves backwards!
What I would do is mount an on off switch up where your hand is when you're pushing it. So you dont have to let go at the end and risk losing a leg. Just hold it with one hand and flip the switch off and then let go after chain completely stops
Hey mate, this is really good! I’ve being looking for tutorials on DIY chainsaw mills but this is a good option too! A lot of work went into that. Great job 👍
Please please please add a shin guard or any safety guard. I swear I thought you were going to trip over one of those braces & take a header directly to the face.
Great work...but...At the end it almost cut your legs with back pull. I would make some solution so you do not need to be in the mill and can adjust the travel of saw from the side.
OK this design is VERY DANGEROUS at the end of the video the saw almost backed up into his legs. Operator needs to stand to the side at all times to compensate. A remote pull cord could be used and avoid all injury. Competent building and welding.
Sweet dude, thinking about doing something similar. I'll make mine with a v twin 16hp Honda and a 1.8m bar on it. Running a 38" Alaskan mill with a ms500i atm and love the saw. I'm mainly cutting, iron bark blue gum blackwood and red cedar.
I really like your design but there are few things that make me nerveous. First those wheels need outer rail which would prevent the wheels from jumping off the pope rail. If it tips over you could really hurt yourself. Second thing that made super nerveous was the end of your video when you fi ished making that first cut you let go off chainsaw but it came rolling back toward you. You could eaily lose arm or leg. Always make sure chainsaw is off before you let go off. Last thing I would add maybe some sort of lid or cover over chain where its facing your body. Just in case that chain brakes loose you want to keep your body safe.
Weld some 1" nuts on each corner of the frame and put 1" ready rod with a foot welded on and a 1" nut welded to the top enabling you to perfectly level your mill. This will prevent your carriage from rolling on its own.
Not acceptable. Walking and pushing so close to the exposed chain is just asking for you or someone else to slip, stumble, or fall directly onto the "amputator". You need to be able to feed the saw from the side. Period.

Yes to every notion this person has presented... please do what they suggest, otherwise that rig will make you a statistic.
Got my heart racing at 6:33, looked like it was going to be a shin bone mill.
Yeah that thing is a widow-maker
@@beantown_billy2405 Yep. At least put some type of a hand trigger on it so that when you let go the blade stops.
Yeah, I hope he adds some solution so he do not need to be inside of it.
Yeah. That was one of the most intense seconds I have seen on UA-cam! Expected next episode to be about building a wooden peg leg.
@@besllu8116 The machine is nothing special
You absolutely need a winch system to move the blade or you'll suddenly be about a foot shorter. :o
When that chain saw rolled back I thought it was going to cut your leg when you weren't looking. It needs a safety guard on the operator side.
OMG, I flipped out when I saw that!
I like to football
Yep I screamed out 🤣😂😂
scary
Came to the comments section looking for this.
The pucker factor was real seeing that 😅👀

Oiler? Love the simplicity! Great job.
I am SO impressed with this mill. Yes, I saw the safety issue but I won't beat you up on it. Attaching the bar and the sprocket was excellent....
Great job... Indeed a mig welding, appears to be so much easier than my stick welder... I am impressed by and encouraged to do something similar
I have recently started welding myself and figured I'd start with Flux core. THought I was doing pretty well until I tried stick welding. Much harder!
Honey, you deserve respect. You are an artist and creator.
that moment it starts to roll back at you ...
This is super awesome man! thanks! but please be careful, I noticed that it started sliding back towards you when you went to unplug it. you were super vulnerable and if anything went wrong you would have been badly hurt! But again this is fantastic and a great idea!
Great build, but the way out rolled back towards your leg when you reached to switch it off I thought there was going to be a horrific accident!
its ok , he was wearing safety overalls...

The key is to just have it on flat ground.
when the saw slides back to you i was really scared !!!

Part Two , just as perfect as Part One. Nicely done !!
Blade Safety guard might be nice when it starts rolling back at you. And a chain oiler
See the next videos in the series
Thanks Mitch, I'm starting my build after I get the motor! Incredible Job, God bless you!

Awesome build fella, well done 👍
I was genuinely worried about your legs when you made that cut :) A good job on the mill but please build a guard mate.
Is a great video, simple but good quality, what about the motor? Do you have the hp, voltage and same other spec??
Part 1 says that, but it's a single-phase 5hp pump motor
You are abs brilliant Mitch . Cheers

6:32 you just got lucky! BTW great sawmill 👍
A brave man welding next to the washing. Bit dodgy when it rolled back before you unplugged it.
Yes to both
Huge fail when you have to speed up the video four times.
Good job but I think you need to get an angle outside in case of losing your balance you don't fall on the blade
I'm going to build one of these. The first sawmill that I've seen, that I think I can build.
3 hp
What a nice chain saw Mill
You need a catch latch at the end otherwise a great way to lose your legs! 😂 And i noticed that you don't ever react to people who have some second thoughts about this design. That's a huge character flaw! 😎
Great idea, I think I will just use an old extension ladder for the wood rail
Опасная штука! Можно без ног остаться.
NEEDS A SAFETY BARRIER AS WHEN YOU FINISHED THE CUT, the saw started moving back toward your legs. Also needs a safety cut out switch if it moves backwards!
Is that blue paint on your steel? Don't you have to have clean steel for welding?
Great build!
Just wondering what the go is with no nozzle on the welder??
Awesome job mate, good on you for sharing
I'm welding with gas-less wire so i take off the gas nozzle.
Mitch Tarrant never knew could do that and I’ve had a gasless mig for 20yrs 👍
@@Movinit I think it makes it a bit easier to weld with.
Отличная идея! 👍
Can u make wooden legs with that?.... Your gonna need them.
This comment wins the internet today congratulations sir
What I would do is mount an on off switch up where your hand is when you're pushing it. So you dont have to let go at the end and risk losing a leg. Just hold it with one hand and flip the switch off and then let go after chain completely stops

Я понял что смазки цепи не будет!? Правильно зачем заморачиваться! Лучше шину и цепь поменять, причем уже завтра...
я думаю, е не долго довести до ума. Но без нее шинка уже через несколько часов придет в негодность.
Шикарная идея! Не додумался бы взять вместо ленточной, шину от бензопилы и простой движок. Ленточную просто так не сделать, а тут проще некуда.

Wow!
Parabéns pelo trabalho, muito bom, qual a potência desse motor?
3hp
I'm impressed by the mill, but I would trip on the bottom rungs and fall into the saw. I'd have to put a guard on the back.
Maravilha trabalho maravilhoso parabéns gratidão 🙏🇧🇷

your fab skills are impressive
you should put a band of metal strip behind the chain so your leg cant touch the chain.just an opinion.
Te quedo genial pero no deberías lubricar la cadena para q no se sobrecaliente?
super djobe well done do you have the measurement plan available?
Very interesting. tHanks for the video
Quase um acidente ...!maaasssss
Belo TRABALHO..
Cool video, thanks :)
Now that is totally awesome 👌
Would not want to be there if that chain was to break. Leg Ectomy you might should add some body guards on the side.
OMG. This welding specialist really shocks... Where is the oil for the chain???
Good job 👏 👍
Very best idea brother
After first Cut is a very dangerous moment
Very nice job
Nice.
What keeps the mill from wanting to lift up off of the rails as it cuts through?
Pretty much its own weight and the bar in the wood. This really isnt much of an issue when chainsaw milling.
Отличная пилорама!
Сохранение у чувака похоже)) За ноги его переживал я
Those castors alone are about $250. How much was the total material input?
Good job bro! Like!
Need to upgrade with safe measures...👍👍👍
You need some sort of safety guard on the back of the blade.
Thanks Mitch!
I need to buy this mill to shipped to Africa fir the production of teak lumber .
you are the man
Do you have the plans for the mill available? Looks like it works well.
Close one, huh!!!
Do Brasil , esplêndido !!!
Exelnte trabajo...hay la pierna!!
Please add additional beam to protect the operator foot from injury causing by the moving chain-saw.....
Good job bro...
Are you take bearing for up/down chainsaw...?
A bearing would be a good idea
I must have missed it.
What kind of motor is that?
Very good! Like!
Not acceptable. Walking and pushing so close to the exposed chain is just asking for you or someone else to slip, stumble, or fall directly onto the "amputator". You need to be able to feed the saw from the side. Period.
Здравствуйте! Скажите пожалуйста какя мощность двигателя? Спасибо
Нужны тормоза для безопасности. Мне интересно, как работает сварочный рукав без мундштука, без углекислоты. Сергей Васильев.
good job, what is the motor power? and what is the saw size ?
3kw and the bar is 1m long
Hey how much more quiet is this to run than a gas powered chainsaw?
MUY BUENO IMPECABLE TE FELICITO. AHORA TENGO UNA DUDA LA CADENA NO CALIENTA AL NO TENER SISTEMA DE ACEITADO DE LA CADENA DE CORTE?UN ABRAZO DESDE. URUGUAY
wow thought for sure when it started rolling back after the cut you were about to be one foot shorter. Really need to fix a guard for safety.
I actually yelled out "watch your leg!"
Hope the laundry didn't suffer!
haha
