[QUOTE="efiles123, post: 8175965, member: 194354"] Looking for some advice on what size blade to run on my new 592xp for freehand cutting some redwood logs that are up to almost 6' in diameter. The Norwood mill allows up to 34" diameter logs so my intention is to freehand cut with grain the about halfway deep into the logs and then use wedges to hopefully split them in half. From there I'll cut again into quarters. Some of the logs are likely small enough to just square off the edges to fit. In the future I plan on using the saw to chainsaw mill as well. My main questions are: 1. Is a 36" bar long enough to quarter these logs? I know the motor can handle it but some say it could handle a 42". 2. Ripping chain or skip tooth? 3. What brands of chains and bars do you guys recommend? Any help is appreciated. [/QUOTE]
