Something I found out works good- I wrapped my saw handlebars with tennis racquet grip tape and it really lessens the vibration and gives you an almost "sticky" grip. I use stuff called Xtreme Soft, made by Head, and 15 bucks worth is enough to do 2 saws. If you're bucking firewood all day, your hands feel a lot better at quitting time.
Really enjoy your videos. I think im pretty close to you. Im in Hawkins county. Curious, how long of a log can you saw? I've considered buying one. They seem to way out due a wood mizer.
Yep.. I’m near Dandridge. Longest logs I’ve sawed was 15’-5” for rafters in the sawmill building. That’s pushing it because the carriage is 9’, so there’s a lot of log hanging off both ends of the carriage. Then long logs get super heavy if they’re large. It’s a light duty mill but it’ll saw quicker than most high mid level bandmills. You’ll lose a lot in kerf width over a bandsaw though.
I noticed that 3-4 years ago you changed the scale on your Belsaw - I’m in the process of rebuilding one right now and the scale has to be changed out - can you do a video or a couple of shorts with close ups??? Thanks

Sure. It’s operated by a small cable and pulleys. Will make a video in a few days.
