Maybe by now we've practiced sawing logs in half with a chainsaw by hand. Let's try to improve our sawing accuracy by making a tool to help with chainsaw milling!
Here's one way to do it:
Minimum requirements:
- Make a chainsaw milling jig
- Can be any style of jig as long as it includes a chainsaw, is for milling logs into lumber/beams and is homemade by you
Provide proof of the following as pictures or
video (<2 min):
- Milling jig at two points during construction
- Finished jig
- Using jig to saw a log
