Logosol is unique among sawmill equipment manufacturers, as we manufacture mills for all size sawmilling.  From handheld mills to fullsized sawmills, we have equipment that can meet your needs.  And, we are a company that can help you grow your operation, providing additional add-ons and accessories that will enable you to grow your sawmilling activities economically. The trick is to find which sawmill is best for you. Big Mill System grows with you The TimberJig, the base model of the Big Mill System, is where many people start.  If you have a chainsaw, then with the TimberJig, you can turn that chainsaw into a sawmill capable of cutting dimensional lumber.  This is the magic of the TimberJig – to be able to produce lumber that is ready for your building projects.  This is not just a slabber, with the TimberJig you can make 2X4’s, beams, and siding lumber from your own logs. Of course, with the TimberJig, you need to be ready to work hard, as this is a handheld sawmill, so you will spend a lot of time with your logs and chainsaw, getting up close and personal.  But, if you only need to process a special log or two, or material for a small project, this is the most economical and precise sawmill there is for the money.  Logosol provides a full manual, complete with techniques for maximizing the cutting of your logs, so you can easily make back the cost of this sawmill with the sawing of just one good log.  The TimberJig is the integral component of the Big Mill System, so you can just add end supports and a rail and you have a more versatile sawmill for the milling of larger logs.  You can also use these supports and the instructions in the manual to make your own easier to use sawmill.  And, if you encounter huge logs, you can grow your Big Mill System into an LSG for slabbing big logs, or even into the Big Mill Pro to make precise cuts on huge logs with your chainsaw. Do-It-Yourself builders Dream If you are looking to do some major project building, such as building a shed, a deck, or cabin, the M8 Sawmill might be your best bet.  The M8 sawmill has proven to be a workhorse, providing the ability to produce dimensional lumber consistently and with a minimum of expense and work to the operator.  One of the secrets to this easy to use sawmill is the cranking system on the saw carriage.  Logosol was the first to use a crank system on its sawmills to move the saw through the wood, rather than relying on the operator to physically push the saw through the whole length of the log.  This technique has recently been copied by other sawmill companies, but Logosol was the first to realize how much smoother and easier this would be for the operator.  The string acts as a buffer as it will stretch as the saw encounters different densities of wood and takes the shock out of cutting for the operator.  The operator only has to turn the crank and follow the saw carriage down the length of the rail.  Amazingly Smooth Cut Another “secret” to using Logosol sawmills, is the ripping chain that we sell.  This chain was developed in conjunction with a major chainsaw manufacturer when Logosol first started building sawmills, and has been a marvel of chainsaw milling ever since.  Our chain provides a cut so smooth, most people do not believe it was cut with a chainsaw unless they were watching when the board was cut.  Chainsaw Powerhead Makes it Easy There are many advantages to having your chainsaw be your sawmill powerhead, such as being able to fell and buck your logs with the same engine that mills them, and the savings you get when you use this type of engine.  But the biggest is that if you can use a chainsaw, you can operate our sawmill.  A Logosol sawmill doesn’t take a big learning curve, the operation of the chainsaw on the mill is very straightforward, and is much easier than operating a chainsaw to fell trees, and cut logs to length.  If you have a chainsaw, consider yourself an expert Logosol sawyer! Woodworkers Perfect Mill Woodworkers told us they didn’t need a long sawmill.  Their needs involved a way to cut precise, short logs – 8’ or less in length and we responded by developing the Woodworkers Mill.  This is a short version of the M8, but in compact format, with rock solid capabilities for woodworkers’ milling needs.  Producing the cuts you need for your woodworking is easy with the Woodworkers Mill, which was featured recently in a “Logs To Lumber” How-To Video by the Woodworkers Guild of America.  This organization, which is dedicated to providing quality how-to videos for woodworkers, selected this mill as the mill of choice for their video learning series for woodworkers.  3 big mill system The only sawmill in the world that will grow with you. Logosol began production of the Logosol Sawmill in 1989. Since then we have delivered tens of thousands of sawmills to satisfied customers around the world. The first Timberjig was delivered in 1990. This simple but functional equipment is much appreciated by sawyers around the world. Many customers have, however, looked for a product that is a little more outfitted than the Timberjig, but not quite as extensively equipped as a Logosol Sawmill. W e have used our customers’ and our own experience to develop a system where the base is a new, improved Timberjig. A well thought out line of mounts, guide rails, supports and other accessories, which are all compatible with the Timberjig, makes it possible to extend and suit the sawing equipment to your particular needs. Adaptable The components are divided into two lines; one which aims at sawing normal-sized logs, and one which aims at sawing oversized logs. Most of the components are the same for the different systems and can thereby be “re-utilized” for different applications. We have put together four ready-made packages that suit different purposes. When you desire, you can upgrade the packages. Which package suits your particular needs? High Quality On the following pages you will find: All the aluminium components have been anodized to offer a smooth, hard surface. Some of the steel components are treated with nitrogen gas and hardened in oil, which gives the steel high durability, low friction and the characteristic black colour. • Big Mill Timberjig • Big Mill BASIC • Big Mill LSG • Big Mill PRO Made in Sweden Worth knowing about Big Mill System 4 Saw as short logs as possible, and you 4 The Timberjig and the guide rails of will have better precision and the work becomes easier. The aluminum guide rails can be conjoined and extended when required. Guide rail sections are available in lengths of one feet eight, three feet three, and nine feet. the Big Mill System can also be used on the Logosol Sawmill or the Woodworker’s Mill, if you later want to upgrade your sawing equipment. 4 When the guide rail is longer than 13 ft, a guide rail prop should be fitted at the middle of the log. If it is longer than 23 ft, two guide rail props should be used. 4 Sawmills | Big Mill System 4 The packages are put together to give you exactly what you need, but each one of the components can also be ordered separately. 4 You can find more information about the possibilities of the system, the com- ponents and accessories in the Big Mill System manual, which is accessible at www.logosol.com 4 We have chainsaws, guide bars and chains that are suited for sawing logs, but you can also use standard equipment if you already own a chainsaw with two bar bolts. 4 Sawing lumber is great fun. The feeling when holding your first board is hard to beat! Sawmills | Logosol M7 5 big mill Timberjig The Timberjig saws quickly and accurately for a small investment. You make your own wooden copies of the components of Bill Mill Basic, namely the guide rail and the guide rail supports. The Timberjig comes with mounts for making the guide rail and a detailed manual for the entire Big Mill System. Many first-time users of the Timberjig are amazed that it actually works as a small sawmill. You can produce your own planks and boards by first sawing a beam and then cutting it into the desired dimensions. The accuracy usually lies within plus or minus a couple of millimetres at the start, but practice makes perfect. The more you saw the better the precision will be. The Timberjig is suitable for logs up to 20”, but in practice there is no upper limit to how big logs you can saw. Most chainsaws with two bar bolts are compatible with the Timberjig and the Big Mill System. LSL 4900 000 1000 Timberjig (without saw) 1 The wooden guide rail and guide rail holders are fastened to the log. Then, you take the first cut. 6 Components: Timberjig Log Diameter: Max. 24” Sawmills | Big Mill System 2 The guide rail is nailed to the sawn surface when you take the second cut. 3 The beam is cut out. Now, you only use the Timberjig. 4 The Timberjig slices up the beam into planks and boards. big mill Basic For higher precision and flexibility when choosing how to cut the log. With Big Mill Basic you can cut logs into rough-edged boards, or into cants that can be used for building a log house or be cut into edged planks or boards. The Basic package includes a 9 ft long guide rail and two guide rail supports made of steel. The supports can be set at 90 degrees angles in four exact positions, enabling you to cut rightangled surfaces. You can adjust the height quickly and accurately with the help of scales with fixed steps that facilitate adjustments. The Basic system offers many possibilities. If the log is to be sawn where it lies, the mounts can be screwed directly to the log ends. The equipment can stay mounted on the log until only the centre of the log remains. This last part is sawn with the help of the Timberjig, which is then guided by the sawn surface of the previous cut. If you want a more permanent work site, you just fit the mounts and the guide rail to a “log ladder” that you build yourself. The project log is easily secured at a right angle next to the guide rail, which can be raised or lowered. All instructions are included in the detailed manual. This system is suitable for both normal and oversized logs. Bar lengths up to 36” can be used. When fitting the mounts to the log ends, the BASIC package is suitable for logs up to 32” in diameter. Cut like this with Big Mill: Components: Timberjig, Guide rail supports, guide rail 9 ft. Log Diameter: Max. 32” LSL 4900 007 1000 Big Mill Basic (without saw) Tr y the Big Mill – it´s not difficult! ” Build your own sawmill with components from Logosol. Tips: The M7’s motorized saw carriage can be combined with the Big Mill components if you want to be able to crank the saw forward. Sawmills | Big Mill System 7 big mill LSG Two conjoined Timberjigs. Perfect for slicing up large logs. This is how you do it: First, you fit something straight onto the log, e.g. a ladder or a wooden constuction. This will guide the first cut. Then you take the next cut, letting the saw be guided by the sawn surface of the first cut, almost like a cheese slicer. Maximum depth of the cuts is 8 inches. You can either cut wide, rough-edged boards, or saw beams that are then cut into ordinary edged planks and boards, using one of the Timberjigs. Provided that the first cut is perfect, the LSG cuts large logs with very high precision. With a 36” long guide bar, you can take 29 1/2” wide cuts. Components: 2 Timberjigs, 1 LSG kit with bar nose steering. Log Diameter: Max. 40” LSL 4900 007 3000 Big Mill LSG (without saw) Main Components and Accessories of the Big Mill System: Timberjig Guide Rail Supports Fit it to a chainsaw that has two bar bolts. The supports are fitted to the log or a log ramp. LSL 4900 000 1000 8 Sawmills | Big Mill System LSL 4900 002 1005 Guide Rail 9 ft The guide rail is mounted on the guide rail holders. It can easily be extended to the desired length. LSL 4507 001 1000 Log Clamp Holds the log in position while you are sawing. Ram it into the log. LSL 4900 001 0400 big mill PRO Cut valuable oversized logs professionally. With Big Mill Pro you can cut with very high precision. You take wide, millimetre accurate through the whole length of the logs can cuts log. IMPORTANT: When placing your order, state which guide bar length you are going to use on your LSG, 36” or 47”, in order to get the correct length on the arms for the guide rails. The system includes a Logosol LSG with its two Timberjigs, the mounts from Big Mill Basic, extended arms that hold the two guide rails on either side of the log, and two extra, sturdier fixing plates for the log ends. Due to the guide rails, you can easily take perfectly guided cuts all the way down to the centre of the log. After that, you can use the LSG without guide rails, since you then have a wide and perfectly plane surface that guides the cut. You can also continue to use the guide rails if you rotate the log half a turn and cut it from the other direction. The guide rails can be rotated around the log in fixed 90 degree steps. Raising and lowering is also done in fixed, accurate steps. This enables you to saw edged boards, if desired. The double guide rails can also be fitted together so that you can cut twice the length with the Timberjig. In brief, almost everything is possible with the PRO package.

LSL 4900 002 1000 Sawmills | Big Mill System 9 Logosol M8 – The Swedish Portable Sawmill With the Logosol Sawmill M8 you can quickly produce high-class planks and boards from your logs, in the length and dimensions of your choice. The sawmill is simple to use – and easy to own. If you have not cut timber before, the M8 is the perfect choice. You will quickly get started and the sawmill is very easy to use. The first day you will already have produced a goodsized stack of planks and boards. Visible scales and the possibility of sawing in fixed steps make setting quick and accurate. Everything is clearly described in the book that comes with every sawmill. The accuracy is impressive, no matter if you are sawing boards for panelling or squared logs for building log houses. The M8 can cut all sorts of wood both from the forest and the garden: oak, aspen, juniper, apple tree, cherry tree, larch. The list goes on. Strong and rigid frame The sawmill is built of strong, anodized aluminium, a material that gives it fantastic qualities. Besides being forever rustproof and storable outdoors, it is so strong and rigid that it can easily take large-diameter logs. At the same time it is so lightweight that you can lift and move it by hand. The coating of the sawmill gives a fine and dirt-repellent surface, which also prevents snow and ice from sticking to the sawmill. The sawmill is almost maintenance free, and it will work when you need it, for decades. 10 Sawmills | Logosol M8 Well thought out ergonomics The log ramps and the log beds with integrated winches enable you to cut timber without much effort. The log comes up to a level that makes it comfortable for you to secure it on the sawmill. The compact design makes it even easier when the log is to be turned over, since you then can come close to the sawmill and have a good working posture. But another feature that is just as important for your convenience is that the boards come at an easily accessible waist level, making them easy to lift from the sawmill. In other words, the Logosol Sawmill not only saves your time, but also spares your back. Fixed log supports are fitted at an exact angle to the log beds. The fixed supports save time, as they never require resetting between the saw cuts, and you do not have to adjust the log clamps. This gives you even better accuracy, as the log that is sawn into boards is supported from the log bed and up to the topside. In addition, the design of the sawmill makes it suitable for sawing in the winter. All important functions of the sawmill are raised from the snow cover and the sawdust is thrown out away from the sawing spot. This is an important quality in the winter, since sawdust acts as a reinforcement and makes the snow hard as stone. When you have finished you can easily move the sawmill from the spot. Mobile or stationary production Many of our customers have their sawmill for stationary use. You can also take your sawmill with you and put it up on the spot where the logs are, in the forest, on your backyard, or anywhere else. The Logosol Sawmill is easiest powered by an ordinary chainsaw. The typical saw unit is a Husky 390, which with its seven horsepower and thin guide bar cuts the timber quickly and gives a fine and smooth sawn surface. With such equipment you can saw five metres a minute from a 6” thick squared log. The big electric saw unit, Logosol E8000, with automatic feeding, doubles the speed, and with the bandsaw you can even saw 50 ft/min. But technical data is one thing, working in practise is another. The timber is not only to be sawn up; it should also be stacked. In addition, new logs need to be rolled to the sawmill and, above all, you need a coffee break now and then. We who use the sawmill can from experience say that we produce between two and four cubic metres sawn timber in one working day, and if you get help from a friend you will produce even more. Good timber and a good feeling You will appreciate the feeling you get by working with quality timber that you have sawn yourself. With the Logosol Sawmill M8, it becomes a pleasure to cut it from your own trees. The best thing we can give to you who have recently become a sawmill owner, is probably the job satisfaction and pride you will feel when you have finished your first project. This is an investment that you will not regret, and that is part of the warranty!

Around your neighbourhood there are lots of timber, just waiting to be cut. In towns and cities park trees are thrown on the dump, and in the gardens fruit trees are felled and burned on bonfires. In the forest there are ash, sycamore, pines, oak, and other types of trees that many would class as brushwood, but we woodworkers value so highly. It would be a great shame not to take care of these treasure chests of wooden workpieces. Logosol’s Woodworker’s Mill is a fantastic tool that maintains very high quality down to the last detail. Each component demonstrates selfconfidence. The Woodworker’s Mill, which is made of an anodized aluminium alloy, weighs under 110 lbs and is completely maintenance- 12 Sawmills | Woodworker’s Mill free. Despite its low weight the Woodworker’s Mill lifts logs that weigh 1100 lbs, by a wide safety margin. You can slice up the workpiece, quarter saw it or cut rough-edged boards. You can use the mill for edging or resawing, and you can take diagonal cuts in different directions. There is an abundance of mounts and accessories that enable you to adapt the Woodworker’s Mill to different purposes. The limitations are few. Reliable design The construction is made of the same components as the M8 Sawmill. By shortening the sawing length, you get a very sturdy and easy-tohandle frame for preparing woodworking material or different ways of special sawing. The sawing length is 8 ft, but you can easily cut smaller logs, or extend it. Woodworker’s Mill can easily be upgraded to a M8 Sawmill. In its standard version the sawing length will then be 16 ft. Easy to use The accuracy is impressive. You can produce everything from beams to thin sheets for making tiny boxes. Logs are rolled onto the sawmill from a working height of 22”. With the built-in winches you can single-handed lift the logs up to sawing height. The finished workpieces lie accessible at waist height and are easy to lift off. As a result, you not only save time, but also spare your back. The saw runs along a stable guide rail and gives you good results from the very start. Visible, plain scales and fixed steps make the adjusting of the sawmill’s settings both easy and accurate. This is thoroughly described in the manual that comes with the sawmill. 4 Perfect squaring. The log clamps press the project log against long, fixed fences. 4 The log beds are independently adjustable, thus minimizing wastage of sawing material. The lifting system has a capacity of lifting over a tonne. 4 Visible scales and fixed height settings make adjustments easy and accurate. technical data Weight: 106 lbs without saw unit.

Tycho Loo, timberman “ Bengt-Olov’s Tips on Chain Sharpening: The sharpening robot assures you a perfect sawing surface!” 4 Sharpen before it gets dull! Sawing with a dull chain puts a lot of stress on the cutting equipment. It is important to sharpen the chain before it gets dull. Made in Sweden LSL 9999 000 1515 Logosol Sharpening Robot The sharpening robot revolutionizes the work with chainsaw mills, and you get the luxury of always having a perfect chain on your chainsaw. If you want to, you can even take upon yourself to sharpen your neighbours’ chains. Besides sharpening automatically, it also sharpens the chain amazingly well. Without having any scientific evidence, we can state that the edges of the cutting teeth feel sharper than on a new chain, and this is clearly noticeable when you are sawing. It can sharpen both 1.3 Picco chains and ordinary 1.6-3/8” chains or 0.325 chains. Both the top-plate angle and the side-plate angle are adjustable, so it sharpens ripping chains as well as crosscutting chains. The machine sharpens one side of the chain at a time. This means that after a while you have to reset the angle of the sharpening head and move the chain one tooth forward to sharpen the other side of the chain. It sharpens ten teeth per minute. Sharpening one chain takes approx. 1.5 minute per side. Starting and resetting the sharpening head take about half a minute. Every Logosol Sawmill owner knows that you should sharpen the chain frequently, but only file off a little, just so that the teeth get their sharpness back. This is, of course, no problem for the sharpening robot. What is more impressive is that it can easily fix a chain that has been damaged by nails in the timber. Regardless of how much take-off you choose, it will not burn the teeth. When sawing, you do not always have acc­ ess to electricity. Due to the fact that the robot is powered by 12 V you can run it with a car battery. One battery is enough to sharpen several hundred chains. You can also run it with a starting aid for cars, which you can get cheaply. An ordinary battery charger is also an option. The sharpener comes with a detachable power cable with strong clamps. 4 Sharpen it comfortably! It is always easier if you have a comfortable working place. Fasten the guide bar with a clamp when sharpening, and use a filing vice if you have an electric saw and are sharpening manually. 4 Don’t forget to change sprocket! The best is if you alternate between four chains using the same sprocket. When the chains are worn out, you change the entire set including the sprocket. 4 File the bar with a UKF edge file If the chain has been damaged the guide bar can get unevenly worn. File the bar rails equally high with a UKF edge file.

Welcome to woodworkingproject.com! 21 “The first day we ran the PH260,  we made $1,000” By Dave Boyt The Ozark mountains of Arkansas are rich with logging history and lore. With shortleaf pine and a mix of hardwoods including oak, hickory, ash, cherry and walnut, it has provided lumber—and jobs since the early 1800s. To this day, many old timers can recall pulling logs out of the woods with horses, or working on sawmills powered by steam threshing machines, tractors, and even Model A Fords. F amily run mills gave way to large modern, high production mills. These mills typically cut one product, such as dimension lumber for houses and railroad ties, producing more than 50,000 board feet of lumber per day. With the economic downturn, these large mills are closing down. Sawyers like Dave Barnes of Flippin, Arkansas are filling the void left by the closures with small band saw mills, and finding niches for specialty lumber that are simply not feasible for a large production mill. Operating under the colorful name “Arkansawyer”, or “Arky”, Dave and his crew of eight cut timbers for post and beam houses, tongue and groove flooring, siding, and just about anything else his customers request. “I started out cutting timbers for my own place, and I discovered that I loved sawing,” he recalls. “We started out with just the [WoodMizer] LT 40, under a pine tree in the summer 22 of 2006. In the afternoon, we’d move the mill around to the other side of the tree for shade.” Dave built a shed for the mill that winter. He estimates that he has cut close to three millionboard feet of lumber since then. Not long after setting up the mill, Dave realized that he could increase his income by processing the lumber into flooring and lap siding. He purchased a Logosol PH260 planer/ moulder and a 15” planer. He opted for the single phase machine, and says that it has plenty of power to do the type of work he needs. “The first day we ran the Logosol, we made $1,000. We were tongue and gooving 1x 4 and 1 x 6 cedar for the ceiling of a resort. We never even took the machine off the shipping pallet, and it is still sitting on the pallet today. It is one of those things that we could take out of the box and make money with it that day,” he says. The flexibility of the PH260 is a large part of the reason he has been able to expand his business at a time larger mills are closing down. “This area used to have five pretty good sized mills, but there are now only two left standing. They just cut ties and grade lumber. I cut pine for timber framing posts and beams and subflooring, and hardwood for flooring, trim and doors. I saw cedar, pine, oak, hickory, and walnut. We build two or three houses a year.” A deep pile of fresh planer shavings just outside the shed is testament to the amount of use the PH260 gets. Dave pre-planes the boards before putting them through the Logosol. “We usually [pre] plane the worst face of the board, then put it down when it goes through the Logosol. That gives a smooth, straight surface.” He has found that this helps the Logosol operate more efficiently in two ways. It eliminates high • The Arkansawyer sorts through som oak tongue and groove flooring that he pro­ cessed on the PH260 planer/moulder. places in the board that can ride up and bind in the machine. It also reduces wear on the bottom knives. “We just take 1/16” off the bottom on the Logosol, partly because those bottom knives are the hardest ones to change,” he explained. For some jobs, Dave does not even use the bottom cutters. “I use this machine [PH260] for a lot of rough ship-lap boards to put in cabins. The customer wants the rough side out to make the cabins look rustic on the inside. You just put the shim plate in, but you don’t turn on the bottom cutter, take your cut off the top, and ship lap the board.” Dave doesn’t worry about straight line ripping before putting boards through the Logosol. “After the board has gone through, it’s straight. If there’s a bump or knot on the edge, if you just put that to the outside, the outside cutter will take it right off.” He says that the side cutters can take off as much as 3/4” of material. Sharp knives are an important part of equipment maintenance. “I can do 8,000 feet of oak or pine before I have to stop and sharpen or replace the blades,” said Dave. He sends his straight blades to a local knife grinder. He has found that he can sharpen the side profile cutters with a belt sander and a fine • No, it is not snowing – those are wood shavings flying from the Arkan­ sawyer’s Logosol PH260! belt. “I take a little off the back side of the blade, and I can get another run or two out of it.” He keeps the feed rate down to help make the knives last longer. “The side profile grinders are about $160 per set, and they’ll do 10,000 feet of siding, so you’re looking at less than two cents of knife cost per board foot of bevel siding.” His two years of experience with the Logosol have given Dave plenty of time to evaluate its performance. “It does a good job,” he says. “I can’t afford a $50,000 machine to do what a $15,000 machine does real well.” Quick setup and knife changing are important to his business. “If I don’t have to change the bottom blade, setup time is about ten minutes,” he explained. “Right now, I’m set up to cut 8” wide S4S lumber, and I’ve got to do five of them. Then I’ve got to do 6”, then 4”. All I have to do is crank in the side cutter in for a narrower board, then lock the cutter in place.” Selling directly to the end user instead of a production yard makes it possible for Dave to sell lumber that would normally be downgraded— or rejected—at a higher price. For example, blue stain is normally considered a defect. But many of his customers like it so much, they pay a premium for it. “I even let some logs sit through the summer to get blue stain and worm holes for the customers who want them. I call it ‘buckshot denim pine’,” Dave explained. “I always tell people they’re getting something special. You can’t just go to the lumber yard and get a piece of wood like this. Every board is different here.” “It’s hard economic times,” concludes Dave. “There’s a lot of mills everywhere going out of business. The saving grace for me is the fact that I am versatile. I’m in an area where I have more than just one type of wood supply, and I have more than one market for the lumber.” He has even found that having a location on a highway where people can see his mill operation – once an irritation – is now a benefit. He put up a sign painted on an old circle saw blade, and built a small office building next to the planer shed to let people know where he is and what he does. “I have good craft market. During the tourist season, I have ten thousand cars a day drive by. They pull their motor homes up here, and we pack ‘em full of walnut or cedar.” He also has a web site that shows photos of his mill, as well as lumber that he has for sale: http://arkansawyer.net. 23 TimberJig in Ecuador Jim Birkmeirer of Timbergreen Farm from Spring Green, Wisconsin recently contacted Logosol about a project he was working on with the Kallari Cooperative in Ecuador. He was planning a training trip down to the cooperative, and wanted to include a Timberjig and a 36” Picco bar and ripping chain in the mix of equipment he would be using to train the cooperative members. As you may know, Jim has a successful flooring business in Spring Green, using the Logosol PH260 as the principle moulder for his finished products. He also is a successful sawmiller and a forester, so he knows his stuff when it comes to milling. But, for this trip, he had to leave his big sawmill behind, so he turned to Logosol to help with the technology for this area where there were no sawmills in place. The Kallari Cooperative in Ecuador had been milling lumber for years, but it was all done by freehand milling with a chainsaw. Jim was going into territory where they “knew their stuff” when it came to chainsaws. Here are some of the comments he recorded on his first day there: • “There has never been a sawmill here – Your stuff is all wrong for here…..” • “We all just saw logs with a chain saw – our men are very professional……” • “It will overheat the engine, you need to break off all the rakers…. “ • “I could do that much faster the way I always do it…” • “That is just firewood, we throw that all away...” Started his training Then Jim started his training. After the first big slabs began to be sliced off of logs that had lain in the forest for years, Jim began to get their attention. When he put the 36” picco bar and ripping chain Logosol had sent with him on the big Stihl, and the saw began to move faster through the log, they really got interested. And when they began to slice boards out of scrap pieces of wood with the Timberjig, there 24 • Making planks from discarded cutoffs with the TimberJig in Ecuador. were hooked. Here is what the coop­erative Director had to say afterwards: ”A couple years ago I thought it was impossible for us to create these large slabs of wood from old logs, I couldn’t comprehend how to create value from something just laying in the forest. I never imagined it would be this easy – we needed so little to get started. We did not have the vision to use our scrap wood and make it into something valuable like furniture. I could see the finished product in books or internet, but didn’t understand how to make it from our trees. Now I feel like my eyes have been opened with this lesson, as if we have woken up from our slumber and can now initiate a new woodworking facility.” AlternAtive income source ”Our families have a small income and wood is something that will contribute to their overall family earnings, it still makes a difference for our village/community members. It helps us rest at night as leaders, because our job is to find a way to create alternative income sources to the deforestation and contamination.” ”I also want to thank the companies that donated the equipment and Timbergreen Farm for donating the chainsaw. These tools will serve as a cornerstone for the future woodworking business of Kallari.” (Elias Alvarado, Production Director: Kal�lari Cooperative in Tena, Ecuador) proud partner Jim had this to say about the experience: “It is rewarding to see the many changes this cooperative is making,” said Birkemeier. “We have been sharing ideas for 6 years. Elias will stay in our home for 5 days in November, and he will be able to see and try many new things. What he will value and take home to his people is hard for me to predict, but we will have some fun working together.” Gigantic trees and two small sawmills Create Hope in Congo Three years ago Frank-Anders Thoresen’s phone rang at home in Minnesund, north of the Norwegian capital Oslo. It was his childhood friend Willy Itomo. This conversation led to Frank-Anders starting up a sawmill in Congo. Frank-Anders grew up in what is now the Democratic Republic of Congo. His parents Lasse and Else-Marit were missionaries in Bondo in the northern part of the country. Bondo is forgotten when it comes to communications and other infrastructure. The area can only be reached quickly by hiring a private jet. The alternative is to walk, cycle or travel by motorcycle the 535 kilometers from Kisangani through the jungle. But two modern inventions have found their way to Bondo: The mobile phone and the internet. When Willy Itomo got access to a mobile phone he called his childhood friend in Norway. ”Willy is a trained agriculturist and worked on a forest project in Bondo. One of the things they did was saw wood by hand,” says FrankAnders. The conversation resulted in Frank-Anders promising to join the project and provide some modern equipment. He considered different methods and decided that the only sensible thing to do was to saw the trees in the jungle. ”There aren’t any proper roads. Transporting the logs by truck to a stationary sawmill would cost too much and destroy the land,” explains Frank-Anders. He decided that the best alternative was Logosol’s Big Mill LSG sawmill. He ordered two of these plus some other equipment that is impossible to buy in Congo. The chainsaws, which are a large model not found in Scandinavia, were bought in Congo. Frank-Anders flew to Congo with 76 kg of baggage. That meant he was carrying an extra 26 kg over the weight limit. From the capital • Two Logosol Big Mill LSGs hard at work in the Congo. Kinshasa he flew onto Kisangani where Willy and some friends were waiting with motor­ cycles. ”We drove for 49 hours over three days to get to Bondo, with 70 kg of baggage on my motorcycle,” says Frank-Anders, showing photographs from the dangerous journey that featured broken-down motorcycles needing extensive repairs in the middle of the jungle. The sawmills they took with them were put into production immediately. To start off with, both were used in parallel, but then one of them had to be taken out of use to provide spare parts for the chainsaw. But even at only half-capacity, this is still much better than the previous method of pit sawing, which means that the log is placed over a pit and a standard hand saw is used, with someone standing underneath the log in the pit. It used to take four weeks to saw up a log, now it is all done in just one day. ”The Logosol LSG works perfectly. It’s small enough that it can be transported to the work site by motorcycle and big enough to cope with thick trees,” says Frank-Anders. Today the sawmill provides employment for four people. They produce up to 3 cubic meters of timber per day, mainly from the iroko and sapeli trees, the latter is also called mahogany. The timber is supplied exclusively to the local market. Customers are a Catholic mission, two hospitals, schools, a home for disabled people, and the population of Bondo. It’s not even worth thinking about exports. Partly because it would be too costly to do so and partly, according to Frank-Anders and Willy, because Congo’s raw materials should first and foremost benefit the country. ”There is an enormous need for wood. By only operating on the local and regional market and using small-scale technology, we can fell trees in a responsible way that doesn’t damage the environment,” says Frank-Anders. The town of Bondo has a population of about 20,000 while around 200,000 people live in the area as a whole. 25 Not milling is like leaving a sack of money out to rot Recently we heard from one M7 owner who had collected a bunch of logs in anticipation of doing a lot of milling, only not to have time to mill up the logs until 2 years later. Rainer Kern called to tell us what he found when he cut into some hardwoods that had lain in place for several years. We discussed the value of spalted wood, and we sent him some reference material on this kind of wood to help him realize what he had found in these old logs. Here is his story: T hinking of what I have discovered makes me remember how I first got started with using the M7 mill in the first place. Three years ago, I purchased some land and immediately had about ten acres of it cleared. What was bulldozed was a mixture of pines and hardwoods. The standard practice here is to push all the debris into a pile, throw diesel on the pile and burn it. It cost me more money, but I had the dozer operator stack both the pines and hardwoods that were over a certain size to keep them from getting burned. Save the cost When asked what I was going to do with the wood, I shrugged my shoulders, unsure myself. I tried to sell the logs to a logging firm, but times were very good for them at the time, so they did not want to invest in the effort to load the logs onto a logging truck. I invested in your mill about two years ago, because I didn’t like the alternative of having the logs used for firewood. Two years that have gone by, and I have had the time to only mill the pine. It is now that I am finally mill- 26 ing the hardwoods. Before I had started milling the hardwoods, I felt disappointed with myself for having left these logs turn to rot. In a way, it didn’t feel any different than leaving a sack of money out to rot. After all, the whole idea of milling the lumber was to save the cost of having to buy it from a lumber yard. The next thought was to run these logs through a chipper to make mulch. But because some of these logs are too big to run through a chipper, I used the mill to cut them down into manageable pieces. As I cut my first piece, the wood wouldn’t even let me take out my frustration by throwing it away. The wood was so rotten that the wood broke in ten pieces, like shattered glass, before I even had a chance to give it a rebellious throw of disgust. Discovered spalted wood The antipathy I felt of having let the maggots and rain eat through what would have been thousands of dollars saved from having to buy it from a mill was sickening. As I cut further down into the wood, I got some satisfaction of cutting the maggots and beetles in half that had made this wood their home over the last couple of years. It wasn’t until my third cut, that I discovered what you call spalted wood. In fact, I thought it was just a fluke in the wood until I noticed the same uniqueness in the other logs. Imagine the relief I felt of knowing this wood being spared from the chipper just to become mulch. It is extremely rewarding to see the time spent two years ago being paid off, more than I could have even imagined. The word should get out so more people can learn about this marvel. Thanks for all the info and for the Logosol hat. I think your equipment and support is great”. Rainer later writes: “The curse of having such beautiful wood is deciding how to use it. Typically when doing a wood project, you make a best guess of the amount of wood you need. If you guess wrong, it is just the inconvenience of having to buy more. True, the color tone may vary between stock piles, but nothing so far off that a different shade of stain can’t fix. With this spalted wood, if you run out, that’s it. There’s no lumber mill that that carries wood like this. Best bet is to cut a tree down, bury it and restart the project in another year. So it has been very difficult to decide for which projects to use spalted wood. For example, I milled my own ≤” solid floor for a 1500 sf room last summer. I have enough spackled wood to cover that, and the floor would have looked awesome. But in the end I choose to save the spalted wood to make cabinet doors. It was just too hard to let all the wood go in just one project. And that’s the curse. When you’ve got a good thing, it’s hard to let it go.” So, don’t discard those old hardwood logs just because they look rotten. They can produce some of the best wood you’ve ever seen! That’s one of the joys of milling – discovering what grains and patterns you will find within a log. • Don Haney shows off his signature Wide Plank flooring produced on the NEW Logosol PH360. PH360 Extends Family’s Legacy The carpenter’s son is the carpenter’s father. For three generations, we have been purveyors of our craft and expertise in quality woodworking and construction. It’s part of our family’s legacy. Combining old world log building craft with proven overscribe techniques, creative expertise and modern quality equipment has produced a creative synergy enhancing our log building. • Rainer Kern and his M7 sawmill. Nestled in the mountains of Southern Oregon’s Rogue Valley, we build in our yard and then re-assemble on location. It’s like cutting a fine jewel and then placing it in its setting. Being equipped with a considerable collection of the tools of the trade is a real advantage – like our Logosol PH 360 and our special saws and hand tools. When the right equipment is blended with the heart, soul, and love of the craft – you have the greatest of assets. As a father-and-son team log building company, we focus on mastering old world craftsmanship, quality and “green” log building techniques, utilizing environmentally friendly and low VOC materials and natural domestic real wood materials. By purchasing our own molder/planer we have been able to produce high quality molding, trim and decking to finish our fine log homes at con- siderably lower costs than purchasing these products. We also make our own hardwood flooring, risers, casings and molding to finish the inside. We pride ourselves in going the extra mile to achieve the visual “wow” affect. From the first glimpse of the massive truss logs and the complex mortise and tenon joinery, the visual impact is immediate. Fine details like the hardwood flooring and matching trim set our log homes off beautifully. We take pride in the level of skill required for our log and beam joinery. When quality tools and craftsmanship marry, it produces something you can be proud of. We begin each log home with the lasting beauty and structural genius of the old Swedish saddle-notch style log building technique as a foundation. We blend with that foundation, an attractive and eclectic mixture of Timber Frame and Post & Beam building methods, for a creative ageless look that is attractive, functional and efficient. With the 6” by 14” wide capacity of our PH 360, we can finish many of our beams and produce the ultra-wide plank flooring and casings that complement our Log or Post & Beam style homes.

Galena, Alaska is located 300 miles west of Fairbanks, accessible only by air and by water in the summer. Longtime Galena resident, David Wightman recently received a Subsistence Permit to build a cabin on the site. He selected the Logosol M5 as his sawmill of choice. While most of us in the lower 48 avoid sawmill use in subzero temperatures, David set to work on his cabin in December. “The simplicity of the M5 is pretty good for bush Alaska,” he said when asked why he chose the sawmill. “I can mill at sub-zero temperatures with the M5,” he added. David is able to reach his cabin site in the winter time by snowmobile. He had some logs at his home in Galena he was able to mill to the right sizes for the foundation, and when he got the permit, he set about getting the foundation material milled. Once that was done, he hauled mill and logs out to the cabin site and 28 Sawmills | Logosol M7 began construction. He is milling the rest of the material for the cabin on site with the M5. David has been sharing his progress with our Logosol forum readers on Logosol’s website: http://www.logosolforum.com/us/. This is one of our most popular threads on the forum, with readers encouraging David as he reports on his progress. David plans to mill all the material for the cabin but the plywood subfloor and the metal roof. He is using logs from the cabin site for the rest of the material, with the M5 set up on the edge of the frozen lake. He hopes to be closed in by the time of breakup in mid may. Then he will have to travel to and from the site by water. He will travel 20 miles by river to the site and then by canoe on the lake to his cabin site. He says he will be able to take the mill out by canoe. “This is definitely a portable mill,” David said about the M5. “You can haul it with a snowmobile, by canoe, and move it around easily by hand,” he noted. He really likes the ability to work in the extreme cold temperatures. “ If the saw will start you can cut lumber!” he says when asked how cold it is when he is milling. He estimates around -25 to -30 degrees is where he doesn’t go out in the cold. “But, it’s actually easier to work out here in the winter. No dirt and sand gets in the wood when you are milling it, so your chains don’t dull as quickly. And we can get around by snowmobile in the winter time,” he stated. The cabin David is building is 12’ X 20’ and will be used as a base for hunting moose and waterfowl and for berry picking. The logs he is milling for the cabin are spruce and average 20-22” in diameter on the base end. He has used a Stihl MS660 with a 16” bar and ripping chain and also a Makita Dolmar as a powerhead on the sawmill. David plans to keep reporting on his progess on the forum, so look for updates as he keeps working on the weekends to build this remote wilderness cabin on the lake. Follow his progress here: http://www.logosolforum.com/us/ A PH260 Hard at Work  In the Heart of Louisiana Rusty Savant is a hardworking sawmiller in south Louisiana who has recently expanded into value-added-milling. He purchased a used PH260 a few years back, and has since upgraded to the new Model 3 PH260. He has put this new PH260 to the test, running thousands and thousands of linear feet of flooring, siding, paneling, and casing mouldings in this rugged 4-head planer/moulder by Logosol. Rusty has done some unique projects with the PH260. “I have supplied all the lumber for siding for the outside of several of my customers’ houses. And in some cases the interior material too. I take a project from the stump to the finished product. I do the felling, the logging, the sawing, the drying, and finishing of the lumber,” he explained. “Sometimes I use reclaimed material that really makes some beautiful boards.” He’s also done the inside of houses with reclaimed lumber. “This stuff was reclaimed fir, something you don’t normally see around here.” he said. “But once we milled it, it turned into some beautiful paneling.” Does things like no other Another unique project Rusty has done is numbered paneling. “This is where you number each board as it comes off the tree,” he explained. “Then you have to keep up with it when you plane it. The carpenters then put the paneling up according to the order in which it was cut. The result is a wall where you can see the pattern of the tree spread out before you. When you take care of the entire processing of the tree from the stump to the finished boards, you can do things like this that other specialized milling companies can’t do.” Rusty has good things to say about Logosol and the PH260. “These guys know their machinery and stand behind it,” he stated emphatically. “I’ve used this machine to produce a lot of material over the past few years, and it hasn’t let me down yet! I do everything right here – structural lumber, siding, paneling, v-groove ceiling, crown mouldings, flooring, casings, S4S • Rusty with his PH260 Model 3. Notice the setup tools atta the planer on a magnetic stri for cabinets.” p. The kiln Rusty built is beh ched to the front of ind him. A plywood making machine Sometimes customers get a little confused about his abilities, since he can supply everything for their projects. He told us a humorous story about one customer who came back to ask him a question after Rusty had just supplied him with a price for everything for his new barn. “Can I get a price on your plywood?” the customer asked. Without missing a beat, Rusty said, “Well, shucks, my plywood making machine just broke a tooth, and I can’t produce any right now!” The customer explained, “I just thought since you had everything else, I would just ask about plywood too.” Of course, Rusty didn’t actually have a plywood making machine, but, who knows? Give him time and he just might put one in. He recently built his own kiln, which is now drying around 4000 ft. of oak for another flooring project. Sawmills | Logosol M7 29 PLANERs & JOINERY MACHINES 30 Sawmills | Grinders Logosol’s revolutionary multi-head planer/moulders Remember the “good ole days” Remember when 4-sided Planer/Moulders were monsters of machines? These were huge iron beasts that took up large amounts of shop space and consumed large amounts of energy to produce small pieces of moulding and flooring. And these big behemoths took hours to set up! That was before Logosol introduced its revolutionary multi-head moulders. Logosol developed technology that put these giants on a diet, and now a whole new generation of multi-head planer/moulders has resulted. Logosol reduced the size of their footprint, lowered energy consumption, and made setup much easier and quicker. And the material produced by the new Logosol moulders rivals any of the monster machines! Revolutionary Designs The Logosol planer/moulder lineup is truly revolutionary. These machines represent years of tooling and machinery innovations and bring the power of precision milling to your shop in a cost-effective way. The most tested planer/moulder on the planet is the Logosol PH260. This innovation and price breakthrough by Logosol brought 4-head milling capabilities to thousands of small shops around the world, making it possible for these operations to produce new products such as flooring, trim, and mouldings. This added a new source of income for these sawmill operators and now many are much larger due to the addition of this one machine to their machine lineup. Logosol worked with many of these new planer owners to help them move into their new role as moulding producers, and, of course we learned a lot about producing moulders along the way. We took these lessons and developed new models and improvements to an already proven concept. The PH260 has proven its spot in the Logosol multi-head planer line and it will continue to be a star performer. NEW PH360 The new PH360 represents the culmination of years of moulder innovation, providing the best mix of power and precision to produce a machine that will rival any of the larger footprint multi-head moulders in production, operating costs, and setup time. And the in- novation is not over! The PH360 is built so yet another head will be available for the mill shop that needs even more capability in their moulder. FULL Support Logosol stands behind all of our planer/moulders with proven support and a full inventory of parts and tooling. With a Logosol planer/ moulder you get an industry leading TWO YEAR WARRANTY and lifetime support. Our planer/moulder experts are available to help you through setup and milling questions, no matter what the situation. We have years of experience in milling, machinery support, and innovation to offer FREE to our planer/ moulder owners. planers & joinery machines | Planer/moulders 31 The mechanical counter means you can keep a check on things down to one decimal place. Quick adjustment thanks to a moving side cutter. Produce material to individual specifications. PH360 – industry in sleek format A stable four-head planer/moulder for professional production. This completely new machine has its place in environments such as woodworking shops, timber yards, homebuilding facilities and, naturally, in the construction trade. One and the same machine can mould every­ thing from fine trim work to timber blocks with outstanding results. The powerful cast iron table is the heart of the machine, guaranteeing vibration-free operation. It is bolted onto a stable steel base with solid foundation support. The bottom cutter, side cutters and integrated feeder tables are set into the cast iron table. The top cutter and feed rollers sit in a separate support that is also integrated into the cast iron table by way of oversized trapezoidal bars. Changes size according to material If you are planing small materials, such as panels and strips, the top cutter support lays close down to the table. If you want to feed in five-inch housing timber, the top cutter support shifts to a higher position above the table, and the machine changes height both internally and externally. The machine can shift up to 9” in height! 32 planers & joinery machines | PH360 It is often a good idea to try to get started quickly with production when you get your machine home. PH360 essentially requires nothing more than a good chip extractor before you can get started with your first piece of work. You can even mount it on wheels. But this is a machine that is meant to have a system built around it. The feeder tables are at a set height so they are easy to extend and adapt to manage the massive volumes of wood the machine is capable of processing. Having a fixed hose system for chip management also makes for a significant improvement. Keep things organised, clean and straight, and then you’ll keep your productivity up! a 40-amp supply for the Chip Extractor. Not much electrical requirement, considering such a large capacity machine. We have taken several measures to make it easier to get perfect results. Among other things, the top cutter has a greater diameter than its predecessor, and it has a double outlet for chip extraction to keep things truly clean and clear and reduce the risk of chip marking. The feeder table has a straight guide that comes in handy when planing flooring, gluing strips, or furniture. A larger and heavier machine is also an automatic advantage when it comes to roughness. Sufficient capacity All the settings you need can be found on the same side of the machine, which means that the machine can be set up close to a wall, thereby saving space. The handles that set height and width have gauges, so you can easily read off measurements down to a fraction. The lever for rapid setting of the straight guide is easily accessible from the feed table, and therefore also close to the control panel. There is a separate start, stop and lamp for each cutter and for the feeder unit. We knocked off the entire wish list in one go! Each of the machine’s cutters has its own large motor, sufficient for every imaginable type of processing of every possible type of wood. Feed rate is continuously adjustable up to 98 ft/min. A realistic feed rate for one person to handle is around 20 ft/min, while two people can handle a speed of approximately 49 ft/min to keep up a smooth work tempo. The machine can run on a 60-amp electrical supply. Keep in mind that power is also drawn by the blower, so you should also have Impressive control panel logosol ph360 4 Fixed feed table height for easy extension and adjustment to large volumes of wood. 4 Impressive control panel with an additional set of buttons for a chip extractor. 4 All controls are on the same 4 Twin outlets for a chip ex- side of the machine. tractor keep everything properly clean. 4 Feed table with alignment support. 4 Outstanding surface finish. 4 With the counter, the job is soon completed.

Quick adjustment thanks to a moving side cutter. Produce material to individual specifications. ph260 – a small planing mill Four-cutter planer for small businesses or the serious DIY enthusiast Producing panelling and moldings from sawn lumber is a simple and profitable way to refine wood. Logosol PH260 planes and molds four sides at once. You can quickly and easily produce all imaginable standard and custom-made moldings. As it is easy to reset the cutters, PH260 is perfect for short customized series. One difference between PH260 and traditional multi-cutter planers is that the upper cutter and lower cutter are suspended in both ends. Due to this, the machine is extremely stable, even though it has considerably wider cutters than most large planers. The machine table, where the lower cutter and the side cutters are fitted, is made of heavy cast iron. The machine chassis is made of 5/32” sheet steel. It doesn’t get any smoother It is impossible to see any difference between a board that is machined in Logosol’s planer/ molder and one machined in an industrial 34 planers & joinery machines | PH260 machine costing tens of thousands. The only difference is that the more expensive machine is faster. With PH260 you can machine about 1600 linear feet per hour. With a large industrial machine the output is several yards per hour. Logosol’s two year warranty also applies to machines that is used for continuous industrial operation. The reliability of PH260 is very high due to thermoguards that prevents each of the five electric motors from being overloaded A wide range of moldings PH260 can handle everything from timber beams to picture frames. You can choose from a wide range of standard molding knives or order your own custom-made knives. Both standard and specially designed molding knives are reasonably priced. Cut deeply The cutters can handle sizeable depths. This makes it possible to cut deep and beautiful patterns. PH260 also has a remarkable capacity when it comes to poorly sawn lumber. The upper cutter can plane to a depth of 3/8’’, plus the molding depth, in one single operation, and the side cutters can cut even more. Use other cutter system When delivered, the planer/molder is ready for squaring. It is set up with HSS planing knives in the upper and lower cutters, and 2” HSS planing knives in the side cutters. The 1 3/16’’ spindle diameter of the side cutters enables you to choose from a number of other cutter systems that are available on the market today. Our customers Many of our customers only have their PH260 for personal use. Even more of them combine this with selling the finished products or offering subcontract work on a limited scale. It does not require many hours of paid planing/ molding per year to cover the annual cost of a PH260.

The possibility of resawing and moulding in one single operation has solved a lot of problems and saved many working hours. The forerunner, the Soloplaner SH230, has been a great success since its introduction over 10 years ago. It has been much appreciated for its versatility and simplicity, which make it almost indispensable once you have experienced its benefits. In the successor, Logosol has taken the sawing and planing functions to a new level, which is even better suited for bigger projects and all types of woodworking workshops with high standards. Resaw through Thick and Thin Originally, the machine was built for dimensioning of planks and boards in one pass. The timber gets planed to the set thickness at the same time as it gets resawn to the right width. This function is spot on and feels indispensable in all building projects once you 36 planers & joinery machines | SH410 have got used to it. Plastic sheets on the machine table enable you to machine both dry and wet wood without any problems with feeding it through. A Safe Resaw The machine can also be used as a resaw without the planing function. The Soloplaner has attracted much attention from the building trade, since it eliminates the operation that causes most serious hand injuries at construction sites, namely the use of a resaw. When using the Soloplaner, the workpiece is quickly and safely fed through the machine and is with accuracy resawn into the set dimensions. Quarter Rounds from Boards Use the full potential of the machine and fit moulding knives in the cutter head. You can resaw, square, plane and mould at the same time! Examples of products that can be made in one single operation are quarter rounds, floor decking and some mouldings. More advanced mouldings like panelling or crown mouldings can require two or more goes through the ma- chine. You can even produce wide floor boards with tongue and groove! Professionally Sturdy The machine is built around a sturdy cast iron table that is suspended by trapezoidal bars in the steel chassis, which stands firmly on the ground. A 5 hp motor runs both the cutter head and the circular sawblade. The feeder is run by a separate motor with bevel gear. The heavy design with vibration absorbing cast iron ensures accurate resawing and a perfect planing result. Adapt the Machine to the Business The machine is ready to use in its basic design, the circular sawblade and the planing knives are fitted and set so you can quickly get started with your production, but there are already a number of accessories for the machine. Extra side stops and extension tables for the in- and out-feed side, adjustable feeding speed and, of course, hundreds of moulding knives to choose from.

Ability to start each of the cutters separately. Sturdy in- and out-feed tables that follow the setting of the machine table. DH410 – planer with a width of 12 7/8” Logosol DH410 has a lot in common with our PH260. The machine is built on the same principles and most of its components are the same as PH260’s, which means that it is a very stable machine with a cast-iron machine table and separate motors for each cutter and the feeder. Both the machines also have the same type of knives and cutter heads. The difference is that DH410 works with two cutters instead of four. Four-sided planing is made by running the board twice through the machine, while you only machine the board once when planing and dimensioning two sides up to a width of 12 1/4” and a height of 3 15/16”. The DH410 is primarily bought by customers who want a machine that can produce the same result as a four-sided planer/moulder, but can accept that the production takes a little more time. One advantage of the DH410 when compared with the PH260 is that you get a reliable planer with a width of 410 mm. Some of our customers have rebuilt the 38 planers & joinery machines | DH410 The stepless feeder is available in two options, 7-39 ft/min. and 13-79 ft/min. Producing beaded tongue and groove with the DH410 STEP 1: Mount moulding knives in the side cutter. Set the height so that it is about 1/8” higher than the finished product. By using the fence, set the width so that it is 1/8” wider than the finished product. Machine the board! Now, one side is ready and the underside is planed. DH410 to make it possible to plane tapered boards for flooring or panelling. The machine can also be used as a vertical mill with feeder. If you do not want to plane the top side of the board, you replace the steel rollers with rubber rollers. Step 2: Mount the other side’s moulding knives in the side cutter. Mount two moulding knives in the horizontal cutter. Set the height by adjusting the table, and the width by adjusting the fence. Turn the board over and machine it!

No resetting between jointing and planing operation. It cannot get easier than this. By using a lever, the front jointer table can quickly be adjusted for cutting depths of between 0 and 7/16”. Use the jointer on the upper machine table and then use the planer on the lower table. Entirely without resetting! Jointer/planer H410 It does not require resetting between jointing and planing operation. A jointer/planer is the base of the joinery shop. When you are jointing or planing the timber you are laying the basis for the following work. The better planer, the better final result you will get. So, this is a machine that is well worth going in for. Logosol’s jointer/planer is built the same way as the professionals’ many times more expensive machines. It has precision-processed machine tables of cast iron, a stable side fence and double motors. Here you find the power to joint and plane the hardest sorts of wood. Heavy precision in a compact format With the help of a lever the front jointer table can quickly be adjusted for a cutting depth of between 0 and 7/16”. The rear jointer table can be micro-adjusted. The table is fully 12” wide, which allows jointing of wide and thick timber. The side fence is very stable and can be adjusted from 0 to 45 degrees. Since you do not have to alter the machine between jointing 40 planers & joinery machines | H410 and planing operation, you can rely on the machine to keep its settings. Other planers have to be altered between jointing and planing operation. With this jointer/planer you do not have to fold away the jointer table or remove the chip outlet. You just plane immediately after the jointing without even turning the motor off! This will, of course, save you a lot of time, and at the same time you get outstanding precision and capacity. ft 3” per minute. As an option, there is also a stepless, adjustable feeding which feeds 7-39 ft per minute. The cast iron construction of the machine gives high stability, increased durability and excellent precision. The sturdy design makes it safer for you as an operator when using the machine. A solid and accurate machine minimizes the risk of vibrations and dangerous sudden moves in the workpiece. Stable planer A small-scale professional machine The planer, which is below the jointer table, machines workpieces that are 410x260 mm. The feeding is done with double rollers, the first one of ribbed steel, the second of rubber. Smaller machines often have only one motor that runs both the cutter and the feeding. This is a cheap construction which most often works pretty well. But to get increased power, reliability and flexibility, the jointer/planer H410 has, like our larger machines, separate motors for the cutter and the feeding. In its basic version H410 has a feeding speed of 19 The jointer/planer H410 is the choosy hobby joiner’s dream, but it is actually dimensioned for small joinery workshops. Here, it will really show its true potential. If you, for instance, have a cabinet making shop, and need to produce several special details from different wood types, this machine is an excellent aid. The powerful feeding, and the reliability and speed that the switching between jointing and planing gives, ensures that the planer will be a long-term and profitable investment. logosol h410 Made in Sweden 4 No resetting needed between jointing and planing operation. 4 2 or 4 planing knives in the cutter head. 4 Quick setting of the front jointer table. 4 The rear jointer table can be micro-adjusted. 4 Big and stable jointer fence. 4 Precision-processed machine tables of cast iron. 4 Separate motors for cutter and feeder. 4 Integrated jointer guard.

Logosol’s multi-planer is a jointer, a planer and a moulder in one and the same machine. Furthermore, you can use it as a vertical milling machine equipped with a feeder unit. Unleash your creativity – the possibilities are endless! eration. This gives you a machine that does not require any resetting between jointing, planing and moulding. It is this unique combination that gives you all the possibilities! To start with, you have a perfect jointer/planer, but it is also equipped with a side cutter. The construction is completely unique. You plane the width and thickness in one single operation. With the side cutter you can also mould the timber. This means that you can make tongued and grooved flooring, for instance. When you are using the machine as a moulder, you machine the timber twice in order to process the workpiece on all four sides. Compare this with a standard jointer/planer or a vertical milling machine, in which you have to machine the workpiece at least four times. The efficiency and the precision increase dramatically when using the multi-planer instead of a traditional jointer/planer or a vertical milling machine. The reason for this is that the workpiece first is machined on two sides by the jointing operation, and then it can be planed and mould on the remaining two sides in one single operation. This is of great use to you if you, for example, are producing joinery components. You do not need any extra floor space, since you at a reasonable price get both efficiency and several valuable operations in one and the same machine. Due to this the multi-planer MH410 is the natural choice for you who require high efficiency and precision. When delivered, the horizontal cutter is equipped with two planing knives, but the Unique combination Thanks to the width of the planer table, you can use the part closest to the side cutter for moulding and the other part for planing op- 42 The natural choice in small joinery workshops planers & joinery machines | MH410 cutter can take a total of four planing knives. So, you can mount two additional knives when you want an extra fine surface finish. Normally, the two additional knife slots are used for moulding knives. Even though the maximum protrusion of a moulding knife in the horizontal cutter is 1/8”, it is possible to produce several different profiles on the plane side of the workpiece. Reliable feeding In its standard design the machine is equipped with two ribbed steel rollers in front of the cutter and a rubber roller on the out-feed side. If required, the machine can be equipped with only rubber rollers. A separate motor runs the feed rollers via a robust chain transmission, which gives a very reliable feeding. A steplessly adjustable feeding is available as an option. The entire machine is built around the heavy cast iron table to give as high stability and durability as possible. The machine’s simple but robust design makes it secure and easy to survey so that you can feel safe while operating it. logosol mH410 Made in Sweden 4 No resetting between jointing, planing and moulding. 4 2 or 4 planing knives in the cutter head. 4 The rear jointer table can be microadjusted. 4 Quick setting of the front jointer table. 4 Big and stable jointer fence. 4 Precision-processed machine tables of cast iron. 4 Separate motors for cutter and feeder.

That is why the SUVA guard is included when you buy Logosol PS315. The stable carriage runs on 16 tempered steel balls with an impressive diameter of 3/4”. The saw comes completely equipped with a universal saw blade of 12 7/16” and an extension table for the sliding table. Dimensioning Saw PS315 An extremely stable dimensioning saw with high precision. Every hobby joiner who has a table saw knows that the saw does not always deliver the expected precision. At the same time, everyone who has bought boards or laminates sawn by a professional knows the value of millimetre precision and straight edges with even surfaces. The pros use dimensioning saws that cost as much as a new car. Logosol’s dimensioning saw gives exactly the same results, but at a considerably lower price. Logosol’s dimensioning saw is in the main built from one single piece of sturdy cast iron, which gives excellent stability and vibration damping. The precision-processed saw table, next to the circular saw blade, goes down under the sliding table, which means that all parts that affects the sawing are connected to the cast iron table. The table is supported by a firm steel-sheet under frame. The heavy and stable sliding table runs on sixteen tempered steel balls with the impressive diameter of 3/4”. The balls run in 44 Planers & joinery machines | PS315 tempered steel tracks in an aluminium profile, which is firmly bolted to the cast iron. This design gives a stable and almost unreal smooth movement, even in the dustiest environments. Saw blade and fence The circular saw blade can be precision adjusted both in height and angle (0-45 degrees). It is vibrationlessly run by a quality motor of 4 hp via a Poly-V belt. When maximally loaded the motor delivers nearly 8 hp. The resaw fence, which runs along a steel bar, has micro-adjustment for fine-tuning the width in tenths of a millimetre. The fence can be mounted standing or lying, depending on the height of the workpieces to be sawn. The angle fence on the sliding table can be mounted on both sides of the table, so that you can choose between pushing the workpiece with the fence or pushing the workpiece against the fence. All sawing angles are, of course, adjustable. The dimension saw PS315 comes completely equipped with a universal saw blade of 12 7/16”, a stable SUVA guard for the saw blade, an extension table for the sliding table and the out-feed table. There is a chip extractor connection under the saw blade, and also the blade guard can be connected to a chip extractor. As accessories there are additional extension tables for the sliding table, clamping devices and saw blades suitable for different purposes. A small-scale professional machine! Logosol offers small-scale machines that do the same job as large industrial machines, only they are smaller in size and lower priced. Logosol’s dimensioning saw cuts as well as larger professional machines. What makes our dimensioning saw different from industrial machines is that it is not optimal for large-scale production where large work-pieces are machined. However, Logosol’s dimensioning saw suits smaller joinery shops or other businesses that work with small-scale wood processing and have high quality requirements on their products. LOGOSOL PS315 Made in Sweden 4 SUVA guard is included. 4 Micro-adjustment of the resaw fence. 4 Unique bearing construction that gives a stable movement and a fine cut. 4 Full-size, stable sliding table mounted on a cast iron chassis. 4 SUVA guard for the saw blade.

Planers & joinery machines | PS315 45 X-Y table can be mounted on the carriage to make vertical and horizontal movements possible for long-hole drilling, making recesses for mounts and locks, tenoning, etc. The feeder unit makes your multi-moulder a fully professional machine. The workpiece is fed through the machine with a speed that is adjustable in eight steps, from 8 ft – 177 ft per minute. The moveable vertical arm makes the machine easy to use and leads to fewer work steps as the machine can be adjusted for the work at hand. Vertical Milling Machine MF30 – a multi-moulder with several unique operations and features. Logosol’s vertical milling machine is the universal machine in the joinery shop. It helps you with everything from preparing timber lengthwise and crosswise for finger jointing, to milling complete windows and advanced furniture components. The multi-moulder MF30 is a vertical milling machine out of the ordinary for milling against fence, end and side milling on carriage, curve milling, and milling on XY-table. In addition, it has three unique functions, which you otherwise only find in advanced industrial machines. • The cutter can be tilted in two directions, enabling you to do more with the same tool. • The spindle can easily be replaced with a high-speed cutter for shank end milling. • The mill fence can be tilted, which gives maximal contact with the surface of the workpiece, no matter what angle the spindle 46 Planers & joinery machines | MF30 has or what tool is used. The fences can also be moved laterally to fit the size of the tool. In addition, the machine has a big and stable carriage, which enables you to secure the workpiece for processing of the highest precision. Three additional machines As a vertical milling machine the multimoulder MF30 gives you more for the money; more than you get from any other machine. And into the bargain you get three additional machines. The secret of it is that the entire motor unit with the spindle can be tilted through 270 degrees! This gives you: • A tenoning machine with tiltable spindle. • A long-hole drill with tiltable spindle. • A plunge router with tiltable spindle. You have four machines with five functions in the same shell. This gives you possibilities that otherwise would require a whole assembly of machinery, so you save both time and space. There are a great number of accessories and tools for the machine. When using the vertical milling machine MF30, you can shape wood however you like. The tiltable vertical arm makes the machine easy to use and leads to fewer work steps as the machine can be adjusted for the work at hand. There are accessories available for all sorts of requirements. For instance, there are extensions for the carriage and the table, a kit for curve mouldings, feeder unit, etc. You work in comfortable work postures and can concentrate on realizing your dreams from wood! High quality gives safety and precision The entire machine is built around the heavy cast iron table to give as high stability and durability as is possible. The fences and the carriage are strongly built to give the best precision possible. The machine’s simple but robust design makes it secure and easy to survey so that you can feel safe while operating it.

Logosol changed this 15 years ago when introducing the first planer/ moulder that was reasonably priced. The result you get is at least as good as the products the DIY store offers. But – if you want to produce wood flooring of the highest class there are two unsolved problems: • Wood flooring has to be dried down to a moisture level of 10-12 percent. Air drying takes a long time and the timber can get warped and crack. • Today there is no good small-scale method for rationally producing tongue and groove on the ends of the flooring boards. Below is how Logosol solves the problems: • Fence with clamps and moulding knives for producing end tongue and groove in MF30. Put two boards together so that their top sides face each other.. Then you mill both simultaneously, and you get the exact same result each time. The knife also makes the edges beveled. • The Sauno kiln. It dries the timber using high temperature and steam, exactly as the compartment kilns at the large sawmills. The method is also called relax drying. A welltried construction that has been on the market for almost 20 years. You can only get a genuine wood feeling from a solid wood floor. Now you can make the floor yourself. Make end T&G with the MF30 More fixing plates and guards are included in the price. Safety cutter Always use the safety cutter on Logosol MF30 and other vertical milling machines.

The 59”, 53” or 47” long guide bar is steered by the bar nose holder. The chain is an standard 3/8” cross-cut chain driven by our powerful 6 hp, 3-phase electric motor E5000. In line with Logosol’s philosophy, we have examined a function that earlier cost a fortune to accomplish, and produced a smaller and lighter solution. In this case a stack cutter that takes the cut linearly vertically, a feature that normally only found in larger industrial machines. The advantages of cutting linearly is that the capacity significantly increases both as regards sawing speed and the size of the board stack. Logosol’s stack cutter has a relatively low weight since it is mainly made of aluminium. Three large wheels make it easy to move the machine by hand. One of the wheels is adjustable in height, and with the help of fixed sight the cut can be aligned. With the stack cutter comes a 6 ft 7” long measuring rod, which is a good means of measuring the 52 length of the stack. Why spend time cutting the boards one by one? With Logosol’s stack cutter you cut the entire board stack at once. Just adjust it to the desired length and then let the stack cutter do the job, quickly and efficiently. What used to take a whole day can now be done in half an hour; what used to take an entire week you can accomplish in half a day. It is easy, it is fun and you can spare time for doing other things. If you regularly cut large amounts of timber into length, the easiest way is to do it with a stack cutter. It saves time. You are also spared from monotonous tasks that strain your body. Logosol’s mobile stack cutter does not take up a great deal of room, and by quickly cutting the stacks so that they are more easy to handle, you will save even more space. As Logosol’s stack cutter is such a small investment, it will be profitable already when cutting small volumes. With Logosol’s stack cutter you can cut your board stacks with an accuracy down to +/- 3/32”. This is due to our portal technique, INDUSTRIAL MACHINES | Stack Cutter PK1500 where the guide bar is fitted at both ends. The accuracy is significantly better than comparable stack cutters that have turnable guide bars, i.e. radial cutting. *Adaptor for 47” or 53” guide bars is included.

The machine works on both seasoned and fresh-cut timber. The machine’s construction is based on simple technology and is therefore extremely reliable in service. The circular resaw is also designed with the stress on personal safety, so that you can feel safe when working with the machine. Large-scale planer mills use bandsaws when resawing timber. These are really large machines with wide saw blades, impressive capacity, and an extremely small saw kerf. Compared to the type of band resaw that can be a possible choice for the small-scale wood processor, Logosol’s Circular resaw has clear advantages. The circular saw blade cuts straight, and you can saw tens of thousands of metres without doing anything about the circular saw blade. With a bandsaw or a band resaw you have to replace the saw blade several times during the same period of time. When it is time to change saw blade, you replace it with just a few simple operations!

When working with the Logosol Sawmill, you spend about half the time rolling timber to the sawmill and taking care of the sawn timber. Consequently, we saw an opportunity to considerably increase the daily output with an improved equipment for handling logs. ed d n e m Re c o m ! Whenever you are going to roll or turn a log, no matter if it is on the Logosol Sawmill, in the forest or on the timber stack, this tool will really do itself justice. Comparing ordinary cant hooks with the log turner is the same as comparing the adjustable spanner with a reversible ratchet. You keep the log in a firm grip through the whole process, which makes it impossible for the log to roll back when you take a new grip. Furthermore, you can turn the log a little bit at a time and work with your knees, which spares your back and makes you incredibly strong.
