Carriage for Bandsawing Logs
Oct 25, 2005
A Methods of Work item in Fine Woodworking #84, p. 18 illustrates a carriage fitted with a pipe clamp to hold small logs as they’re being bandsawn. The jig I use for this holds the work with two adjustable wooden dogs, rather than a pipe clamp. This versatile jig is also good for resawing square, glued-up stock into thin boards, which I use for inlays and overlays.
