Cutting Coconut Lumber

  • It is fascinating to see how accurately a chain saw operator can cut lumber. In America we are used to lumber that is exact and uniform. here a 2x4 might be 2"x4" or anything close. But the boards, often 12 feet will be very close to the same dimension the entire length. This same technique is used on all timber. From the beautiful Philippine Mahogany to the humble coco lumber.
    And notice the safety equipment. Or rather that lack thereof.
    This lumber was used to build the temporary housing and office for the building project on this site. Sixty trees were cut down to make room for the building and the parking lot.

    This is how they cut lumber or just timber in the Philippines. because they rarely have sawmill or cutting factory specially in province.

    In place like up in the cordilleras, we also do this way to cut pine tree slabs. no way you can cut slabs with a lot of accessories to put on a chain saw especially working slope area. we can just throw the chain saw if we slipped. admit or not it's not as accurate as you do with jigs.

      Coconut palm wood is surprisingly 'hard.' especially after it has dried. Freshly cut wood contains a lot of moisture.

    • @bobw222

      Is it brittle when dried, like the shell of the coconut itself? Or is it more of a dense, fibrous structure like bamboo?

    This chain saw cutting skill(s) are very common all over the Philippines. Mostly they use .404 chipper type chain(rounded corner or semi chisel, rapid chipper), mounted on a diamond tipped(no rollers) guide bars mostly on 070, 090 Stihl. To cut a straight line easily without the problem of being crooked, they modify the blade hone to completely 90 degrees using a round file. Diagonal or say 10 degree angle blade sharpening can't cut as straight like this, because the blade tend to be pulled left & right due to the angle of bite. They even mill Molave, one of the hardest ironwood using this simple modifications. A full chisel chain(squared corner) & roller tipped guide bar tend to be more slacky are not suitable to do this job.

      @@donovanmorris163 I know I'm late here, but my best results are always with a semi chisel chain brought down to a barely not flat angle. 10 degrees at most, although I haven't noticed much difference at 5 or 0.
      The full chisel chains still bite hard on the sides when the angle is changed.
      The guy in the video has a solid technique. I am going to play with it. My swaying has been giving really sloppy cuts in softer woods.

    In countries like the philippines that have exhausted their local hardwood supplies, coconut "wood" makes a great alternative for both hardwood and softwood applications. I put 'wood' in quotation marks because it isn't exactly wood although it possess many of the same properties and, when treated correctly, is much better in many ways. In my experience, the wood doesn't warp, it pretty dense and hard, is cheap and readily available, makes for decent furniture frames (I've made a sectional couch frame out of this material), it's also good for window and door jams in indoor and even outdoor applications if treated and finished correctly. The wood is sustainable because of the number of plantations there are in the philippines in conjunction with the fact that more palms can be grown in the same amount of space than any other species. Even when alternatives are available, this is still the go-to material for a number of outdoor applications for which in america pine and other softwoods are used. It takes stain pretty well but unless you're going for the cocolumber look, I would avoid using any stain other than a dark walnut and never without a pore filler. The lack of good affordable furniture wood in the philippines really opens your eyes to the possibility of using these alternative resources and wood products that you would normally never even consider. The cottonfruit (santol) tree makes for a decent hardwood that isn't easily dented (reasonably hard) and takes stain well but lacks a noticeable grain pattern. This is great for applications where a noticeable grain isn't desired. I've made book cases, showcase shelves, entertainment center and a number of other things with this basic wood and they've turned out looking quite professional with nothing but some good treating and finishing products, a little creativity and a good work ethic. Wood of any kind is used sparingly in the philippines for construction. The lack of available hardwoods makes it expensive to build a durable timber frame home, at least more so than it would cost to do the same with concrete. In this climate and in any event, concrete is the better choice. Just wanted to share some of my experiences with those who are interested.
