New guy here. I stumbled into chainsaws cutting lathe blanks. Once I saw whole logs being milled I just had to try it out.
After lurking here for a while. I purchased a damaged Ojenas 070 clone and a grandberg mill. I sharpened up the ojenas chain with a granberg file and joint jig.
I think the first run went well. I used 2x6s for the first cut. The saw seemed to self feed pretty well. We got 4 slabs from this red oak branch. I will be trying bigger stuff soon.
I touched up the chain afterwards even though it seemed fairly sharp.
