I don't really like the idea of using smoker wood that has chainsaw bar oil all over it and a sawzal takes forever.
Thank you.

Thank you.

I tried my chopsaw a couple times and got some nasty kicks from it. I like the bandsaw better.I use a 12" chopsaw.

LOL.....I'll buy wood before I try cleaning my saw.Could ya clean your saw and then run vegetable oil? jus thinking out loud at 6am.
The Ax Sawzall blades are the best I have found so far.I split it into manageable sizes, then use a Sawzall with demo blade to cut into usable pieces.

Like some of the other guys I’ve used my chop saw to do this, but it helps if your saw has a good vise...because like Rob said, you can get some kickback if the log isn’t secured properly.

That's exactly what I was talking about. The guard on my saw is now jammed and no longer works thanks to a similar incident. I haven't had the chance to pull it apart yet to see if it is permanent damage or hopefully just some small pieces of wood jammed.View attachment 391976

How about this for kickback? Lol.
I was using it to cut splits into smaller pieces when a small piece of wood got caught between the blade and the housing, causing the blade to deflect through it.
The saw and miter stand just flew up out of my hand. It happened so fast and scared the living sh*t out of me!
I use my sawzall anymore. At least I got a new bigger and better saw out of my mishap.
