Chainsaw Carving 70 Pound Dice- Alone in the Wilderness #14
I love building ridiculous things with a chainsaw! This big pine log has been in my way all summer and I finally realized what was inside it. It was such a nice, straight, knot-free log that I hated to chop it up into little pieces. Instead of milling it with the Granberg small log mill, I decided to do a little freehand chainsaw carving with the Stihl 261.
Woodworking with a chainsaw is just about as fun as it gets for me, especially when it is a quick, one-day-or-less project and the result has absolutely no use.
I've been living in the Michigan wilderness in a tent for many months and this was one of the most satisfying projects I've done since moving to the woods.
Off-grid, homestead-style living doesn't mean all work and no play. This is ADULT PLAY and since nobody is looking, I am going to continue to do as I please!
On a side note, homemade milling chains really aren't worth the time. For a few dollars more per loop, get a purpose made chain for milling. They stay sharp for MUCH longer while producing a nicer cut.
Because I’ve gotten so many questions about the gear that I use on the channel, here are some of the most important pieces I use every day:
