Making Lumber With a Chainsaw - FHC Farm Bulletin #1

The process of using simple chainsaw attachments to turn logs into usable lumber for the small farm or homestead is briefly described in this very first edition of the Farm Hand's Companion Farm Bulletin.

The smaller attachment is a Beam Machine, and the larger one is an Alaskan Mark III portable chainsaw attachment for a 24 inch bar. (Mark IV's are now available at Northern Tool.)
