[John Sabarese]

I knew it wouldn't be too hard to draw up but I figured id ask to see if any one has made something like this first

[Scratch]

Got a video on this? I'm interested in seeing how good it works.

[John Sabarese]

This is just a picture i pulled of the internet I'll search YouTube to see I'm sure there is

Just so happens I have just the ticket for you!
All parts cut from 6mm
I heated up some plastic water pipe to go on the handle.
Ideal for kindling as long as it's not to knotty.

Is that the chainsaw holder?
Trouble is all saws are different, you will need to make to suit your own saw.

For some reason when I open them up all of the parts show up like 400" long. do you have measurements so I ca convert them from metric

[Roman]

I just changed scale when I imported dxf to 3.94% and now its in inches

[John Sabarese]

cool Ill give that a try thanks

I opened these in Corel and using the Automatic scale selection and they measurements were all wrong also. Ended up opening them using the metric mm scale selection and everything looks good. Attached is a nested file, hope it helps.

I added about 10" to the handle on the one that I burned a while back. Used 1/4" plate and doubled up the 1,4" at the handle. I am glad I didn't purchase one of these things. It is ok on dry 2x4's and softer wood, but I don't use that stuff too often. Though it does work, for me it is much faster and less frustrating to use a small hatchet for my kindling . That's probably what I am used to using I guess..
I have mine mounted out back near my wood pile and it is basically a conversation piece..
