Title: Log holder for a chain saw
Post by: DaveH on November 11, 2012, 02:27:49 PM
This is a saw horse I made from steel tubing 1"x2" (50x25mm) for holding logs (small tree trunks  :) ) so they can be cut with a chainsaw without inflicting any damage to ME!  :)

The 6 legs cut to size and bolted together.

The wheelbarrow gives one a sense of size

More or less finished - still have to trim the holding chain, and the two small chains that stop the legs from doing the splits  :lol: and some plastic end caps.

It can hold long timber

Very useful for holding awkward logs

And when finished it fold flat (well nearly)

That's it,  now I just have to decide whether to paint it or not.
