    Cool what can be done with simple levers to make things happen.

    That was different. Kinda cool for small stuff. Your right swags with the finger patrol, he's awful quick in and around that chain. Not to mention that base for the jig was sitting on the edge of the cart, not sturdy enough for me.

    I agree. That's a little sketchy, but if mounted properly, and was made a little better? That would save some time :) Especially if you made a "Stop" so your lengths were all the same :thumbs:

    The wood I cut are 4" & above logs, & would be to heavy to lift .
    Makes my back hurt just thinking about it.

    But if you cut a lot of sticks, it might be useful.

    ? , is it easier to lift the "saw" or the "log" ?
    If it's the log, get a smaller saw :)
