So did I but some will always have power tools and Not the Armstrong Type or the Pedal Power Type so I saw the Solar Chargers as there will Always a Sun Over head...!!!I thought we were talking about hand tools, not power tools.
Not more efficient if is takes two people to operate it. And, you still need a way of cutting limbs and such to get them to the bicycle saw. But, I have to say the exercise bicycle saw is a creative idea.https://www.homesteadingforum.org/threads/tirediron-pedal-powered-bucking-saw.15413/#post-447852
humans powered, far more efficient than a bow saw. easily made
where did it take 2 people to operate in the link I posted?, that was all done by my self, And it showed a better than dragging method of transport providing the snow isn't deep.Not more efficient if is takes two people to operate it.

I didn't see a video, all I saw was three photos when I clicked your link. I assumed from the photos that one person was cycling and another person was laying down the limbs. Now I see the entire thread with the videos. Still, I think I can bow saw faster.where did it take 2 people to operate in the link I posted?, that was all done by my self, And it showed a better than dragging method of transport providing the snow isn't deep.
you can sharpen bow saws, it is just more difficult and you need a tooth setting tool. a chain saw has really nice sharpening guides and the tools are far more available. I am also not convinced of the availability of good quality bigger bow saw blades as you had mentioned earlier. You might cut one log faster with a bow saw, but your legs are more likely to last through enough wood to keep you warmI didn't see a video, all I saw was three photos when I clicked your link.

What I do like about your set up is that you can sharpen your chains. I can't sharpen a bow saw blade.
Okay. I'll make a confession. I don't work with tools - axes, hammers, screw drivers, saws - stuff like that. I can, but I avoid it. My husband has lots of tools out in the garage and he knows how to use them. He can fix almost anything in our home. I don't know what handyman tools he has because I don't look at them - ever. If he asks for a phillips screw driver, I do know which one to get.Any kind of hick up can mess things up and disrupt life. Do you have some kind of saw in case a tree block your way, an axe the list goes for ever. do you know how to use a manual saw?? there is a right way.
your work shop is awesome !I have generations of tools. I have my grandfather's grandfather's broad axe, my great granddad's tool chest, my grandfather's tools, my father's tools plus my own. When I was a kid I had to have my own to be just like granddad and dad. I have barns that american pickers would love to rummage through.
I must have posted a photo of it. I recently poured a floor in a addition.and made a long bench for my old rotary tinsmith tools. I need to.get back on thatyour work shop is awesome !
Well, dang, I wish I would have made the list . The only suggestions I would make are a hand drill and bits, and a bow saw and hatchet/axe to use to cut/split firewood.No, I don't have an abundance of tools.
I am having fun learning how to operate some cordless drill, circular saw attachment, router attachment to it.
I have a basic hand saw, standard Phillip and flat tip manual screwdrivers.
Basic socket set in standard and metric, Allen wrenches, metric and standard bits.
I have several crowbars, several jimmies (and I know how to use them), locksmith tools,
Anything I will ask for recommendations from the gentlemen(you know what I mean) on the forum.
Neb, hashbrown,Backpacker, Morgan, Pearl, Lady Locust, Amish Heart etc.
People whose opinion I would trust.
You was under etc....Well, dang, I wish I would have made the list . The only suggestions I would make are a hand drill and bits, and a bow saw and hatchet/axe to use to cut/split firewood.
a long time ago in a galaxy far from here.............enough said.I must have posted a photo of it. I recently poured a floor in a addition.and made a long bench for my old rotary tinsmith tools. I need to.get back on that
I googled bow saw blade sharpening and found that I do not need a tooth setting tool. I'm going to try to sharpen and old blade and see how it does.you can sharpen bow saws, it is just more difficult and you need a tooth setting tool. a chain saw has really nice sharpening guides and the tools are far more available.
