Why an electric? Some bolt a chainsaw on which you probably already have. Cheap electric or engined products tend not to last if your expectations are commercial.

A good sawhorse multiplies production.

electric cos its emission free, lower noise, chainsaw kerf wastes wood, only to cut down this years bought-in billets...

Machine Mart have a couple in. Clarke stuff is pretty reasonable.

TCD when i was looking for a saw i considered buying a cheep electric one for billits but i can be quite hard on equipment and none of what i looked at would last 5 mins. You might be best off looking for an electric rip saw like they use on building sites sorry i can not do links but there is a few good ones on E BAY:001_smile:

can rate the Einhell BT-LC 400 Log Cutting Saw Bench, brilliant on softwood for kindling, bought 2 more back in september was so pleased. this once has a max 5 inch cut and whilst it copes with 4.5inch oak offcuts from staircase manufacture you do have to give it the time to cut. overall great on 3inch but motor is perhaps a little underpowered for the max 5inch on hard timbers

can't fault the longevity for the price i paid though (£150 ish) easier put 120+ cube through the first saw and it's still going strong!

I use a Clarke saw bench which you clamp a chainsaw in. At the mo I have a cheapo GMC electric saw in which is great. I like the electric as it only runs when you pull the trigger. No wasting fuel while you get billets or clear the deck.

 

But if I want to take it out in the field I can put a petrol, saw in.

What sort of size is classed as a small billet?
