Smart Holder Log Saw Horse

I think it a bit expensive for what it is but! I have used it for 5 months now along with the log splitter and i can not fault either of them. Easy to assemble and fold down, easy to store and to carry. I have used for 2" dia up to 12" dia logs. Holds logs firm and away from your legs and feet (especially if using a chainsaw). Mint. Tudor

I have tried all sorts of saw horses over the years.This one is simply the best.It tackled assorted lengths and thickness with ease and made chain sawing easier and safer.Money well spent.

This equipment has made a difficult task so much easier and safer, it also very stable whilst in use.

This has made cutting up logs a simple pleasurable job instead of a back breaking chore. Excellent build quality and easy to put together and easy to break up to put away

Does what it says on the tin! well made and very practical. wish i had invented it. tends be a bit low for someone of average or greater height though.

Nice bit of kit - well built. best for logs longer than twice the length you wish to cut, then becomes difficult to cut that last bit into two equal lengths. for branches of smaller diameter, say two inches, then (as an earlier reviewer commented) the gripping teeth are not close enough together so could be improved by adding a couple of extra teeth where it matters. i like it - it works better than anything else that i have used. i work alone; it is easy to handle and seems safe to use with a chain saw (but h+s warning, do make sure the saw cannot take a chunk out of your legs, or anywhere else for that matter!).

Excellent little log horse. Good build quality and easy to carry about and set up. Makes using a chainsaw alot safer++++++++++++++++

The smart holder log saw horse is a simple but effective piece of equipment. The cantilever effect enables the operator to place a good length log in its grip and will not need to re-adjust or touch the log until it is reduced to the required blocks. This enables the sawman to work unassisted with the assurance that the log won't slip or drop during cutting. The saw horse folds flat and is quite portable. It is a quality tool.

This is a very clever and well thought-out device that enables you to be much more productive when cutting wood single handed, either with handsaw or chainsaw (i use both). It is light enough to carry easily, and can be set up in less than 1 minute. two criticisms (1) for smaller diameter timbers (2" or less) the spacing of the gripper barbs is too wide. There should be a couple of closer spaced ones in the middle of the run to grip smaller wood. (2) the working height is a bit low for a tall user (i am 6' 2") and so your back is bent. I just put it up on some blocks laid flat.

Does exactly what it says 'on the tin'! very easy to assemble. study and strong and yet folds neatly for storage. at last i have convenient tool to help chainsawing logs to length for our wood burning stove. most important of all – using the log saw horse is a much, much safer way of holding logs when chainsawing.

Works well with most logs - struggled when they got too large!

Tony 30/10/2011 17:12:00

Great bit of kit, holds the material firm just like a second pair of hands without the moaning lol....Expensive but how much would it cost to have someone to hold the logs for you? Also keeps the log at a nice height, away from your feet/legs whilst cutting with the chainsaw. Folds away after use for storage and fairly light too. I also purchased the log splitter too. by tudor

Surprisingly stable. Works well on long logs, irregularly shaped trunks can roll so you need to be sure that they are well wedged. Along with other products that i have tried the final cuts are not possible because the holding bar gets in the way. (only applicable if you need 9 to 10 inch logs)

Have had one of these for some years - bought this as a present for my son-in-law. Mine has been a brilliant piece of kit. Holds large logs/branches easily ready for cutting with a chain saw. Have not given the highest possible rating for features because it can't have many because of what it is. Also it's not cheap for a collection of welded bits of steel, but it does the job designed for brilliantly.

David 28/10/2011 08:36:05

An excellent bit of kit, easy to assemble and very steady when in use. it makes chainsawing much easier and certainly safer. It folds away neatly for storage and is not too heavy to carry around.

Gary 27/10/2011 19:54:59

Made short work of a pile of logs with varying lengths and thickness.Like an extra pair of hands,holds steady for cutting.Very pleased best bit of kit i've bought in a while.

A clever, easy to use, compact piece of kit by makita, which i hadn't realised when i bought it, but it is a plus factor. Easy to use, easy to store and does the job for most logs you are likely to encounter. In use, the log is in exactly the right place, minimising back problems
