DPP:dl Al 7/28/80 23623 PORTABLE SAWMILL AND METHOD FOR CUTTING LOGS Abstract A portable sawmill includes a log supporting mech- anism for holding a substantially horizontal log. A chain saw with a substantially horizontal effective cutting edge at least as long as the log is supported at only one end by a saw mounting assembly with the cutting edge generally parallel to the axis of the log. The saw mounting assembly is adapted for lateral movement relative to the log, as well as upward and downward movement, so that the saw can be posi- tioned beneath a portion of the log and moved upwardly through the log to cut wood slabs. The saw is pivoted to the saw mounting assembly so that the angle between the effective cutting edge and the axis of the log can be adjusted to produce elongated wood fibers during cutting. A pivoting mechanism is provided for rotating the log between cuts so that slabs tapered from one side to the other can be cut. The saw mounting assembly is also adapted for pivoting about a vertical axis to move the cutting edge out of a vertical plane parallel to the previous cut so that longitudinally tapered slabs can be sawn.
