With the Timberjig with guide rail, you get both the advantages of a hand held sawmill and of a frame-mounted sawmill. This combination of Timberjig and M7 technology gives you the opportunity to make a high production sawmill at a very affordable price.
Logosol introduces our new system of sawing based on the Timberjig. We are offering a complete kit that contains brackets, clamp-irons, guide rail, angles and other accessories and a plan how to build you own sawmill.
The sawmill consists of three parts
- The Timberjig: A proven hand held sawmill, sold in thousands of units world wide
- The guide rail: Using the classic M7 guide rail with a special designed height and angle adjusting clamp to provide a straight and steady guide for the saw.
- Guide rail supports: Made of steel that can be set at 90 degree angles in four exact positions, enabling you to cut right-angled surfaces.
Two way operation
The Timberjig with guide rail can be used for sawmilling in different ways. Here are the two most common:
Sawmill plan A) Build a wooden log table
You build in wood a log table, a steady base to attach the guide rail to. Then you roll the log up on the table and work in comfortable height. This is how we prefer to do it!
Sawmill plan B) Use it directly on a log
If the log is heavy or difficult to transport, you can attach the guide rail directly to the ends of the log. Then you can easily adjust the height of the guide rail (and the cut), to produce lumber of your choice.
Combined advantages
Advantages of a hand held sawmill
1) Light weight - a few pounds
2) Extremely portable - fits in the back of your trunk
3) Cost-effective - the chainsaw is the biggest expense
4) Flexible - cuts almost everything
Advantages of a frame-mounted sawmill
1) Good measurements - due to a straight guide rail and solid foundation

3) High production - an organized work place gives higher output
4) Surface quality - the steady rail give a smooth sawn surface With the Timberjig with guide rail, you get all the advantages!
Worth Knowing about Big Mill System
• Cut as short logs as possible, and you will get better precision and the work will be easier. The aluminium guide rails can be fitted together and extended when required. They are available in the length of 0.5 m, 1m, and 2.75m (1.6 ft, 3.3 ft, and 9 ft).
• When the guide rail is over 4 m (13 ft) long, a guide rail prop should be fitted at the middle of the log; when it is over 7 m (22 ft) long, two guide rail props should be used.
• If you want to upgrade your sawing, the Timberjig and guide rails of Big Mill System are compatible with the Logosol Sawmill and Woodworker’s Mill.
• The packages are composed to give you what you need, but all components in the system can also be ordered separately.
• More information about all the possibilities, components and accessories of the system, are described in the manual.
• We can provide you with a chainsaw, guide bar, and chains that are suited for sawing logs, but you can just as well use standard equipment if you already have a chainsaw with two bar bolts.
• Sawing is great fun! The feeling when holding your first board is hard to beat. |
