G'day members, couple of questions on slicing and slabbing logs using the home made horizontal bandsaw l brought, l don't want to re-invent the wheel if there is a easy way that someone uses already.
Q1. How does one anchor a small log to cut slices 35-45mm thick off a log 500x500mm, l thought of cutting some timber 50mm high almost "U" shaped (like a keel) and having 2 "endless thread bolts" for tightening, perhaps on a 15mm ply base
Q2. Logs - how to secure the log when getting close to the bottom of the cut/log, l thought just flip it over?
Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Small tip if anyone wants to build their own - DON'T use steel cable (coated would be great) as l went to raise the motor assembly and the cable broke, lucky the safety bolt was in place, have to get some seat belt webbing.
The guy that made it used 2 boat winches, either end of the motor assembly.
