I need track layout for Thomas log mill

If your chainsaw is seizing up when you attach it to a portable sawmill, there are several potential reasons for this issue:
1. **Overloading:** Portable sawmills can put a significant load on a chainsaw, especially when cutting through large logs. If the chainsaw is not powerful enough for the task or the sawmill is cutting too aggressively, it can lead to the chainsaw seizing up.
2. **Chain Tension:** Improper chain tension can cause the chainsaw to seize. Ensure that the chain is properly tensioned according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Too tight or too loose can both cause problems.
3. **Dull Chain:** A dull chainsaw chain can create excessive friction and resistance when cutting, potentially causing the saw to seize. Regularly sharpen your chainsaw chain to maintain its cutting efficiency.
4. **Lubrication:** Inadequate lubrication of the chain and bar can lead to increased friction and heat, which may cause the chainsaw to seize. Make sure the oiling system is functioning correctly, and use the appropriate bar and chain oil.
5. **Chain Quality:** The quality of the chain itself can impact its performance. Using a low-quality chain can result in binding and seizing, especially under heavy loads.
6. **Incorrect Chain Size:** Ensure that the chain you are using is the correct size and pitch for your chainsaw and the portable sawmill. Mismatched components can lead to problems.
7. **Engine Issues:** If your chainsaw's engine is not running properly or lacks the necessary power, it may struggle to handle the load from the sawmill, causing it to seize. Regular maintenance and tune-ups are essential.
8. **Sawmill Setup:** The setup and alignment of the portable sawmill can also affect how smoothly the chainsaw operates. Ensure that the sawmill is correctly assembled and adjusted for the type of cutting you're doing.
9. **Operator Technique:** Using the sawmill requires skill and proper technique. Pushing too hard, not allowing the saw to cut at its own pace, or applying uneven pressure can lead to binding and seizing.
10. **Sawmill Maintenance:** The sawmill itself should be well-maintained. Ensure that all components, such as guides and rollers, are in good condition and properly lubricated.
It's important to diagnose the specific cause of the seizing issue to address it effectively. If you're unsure, consider consulting a professional chainsaw technician or the manufacturer of your chainsaw and portable sawmill for guidance and assistance in resolving the problem.

you will loose 4 inches off bar in the clamp of your Alaskan saw mill ( I have one too and use it to make carving blocks) so your bar will need to be long enough to go thru your log plus those 4 inches , I actually have one special bar/chain that ive drilled all the way thru to mount clamp with so it cant slip , but I will caution you , saws over 19 inches require a heavy hand to operate and will require a bit more strength of the operator , this will tire you out on long cuts , if you stop in middle of log ,there will be a mark there in final cuts that will need to be sanded away , also use long drywall screws with drill to secure your track down , not nails that way it wont move easy to mess up your cut , and last but not least , watch your chain oiler , most don't work too well pointing down , and keep your chain sharpened too makes for less effort from operator

check all track connectors(squeeze lose ones with a needle nosed pliers..check wire from transformer to the track..and during assembly, the track gets any dust on it, the wheels wont make proper contact for the engine to run..) as for the locomotive.. sometimes you can clean the motor brush comutator with a simple pencils' erasure by rotating the motor armature by hand(small as it is) to clean the pickups on this..it will better help to transferr the electric into the motor..sometimes on these track layouts, you need fine grit sandpaper to run across the top of the rails as the manufaturer puts a protective coating on these.. it wont carry power to your train..you can also use the backside of a butterknife drug around the layout a few times with the electric off.. it helps you feel any rough spots on the track/layout..

Hope this helps!

The sawmill may not be fully inserted into the plastic base. Check the connection between the base and the sawmill.

When I start a saw I use a motion similar to dropping the saw.You hold the cord with your left hand raise the saw with your right hand then use the weight of the saw to help start it buy dropping the saw as I pull.Of course you don't turn loose of the saw.It really works well for me.You might also build a device using the guts out of the back wheel of a ten speed.It will grab,and hold in one direction but will spin freely in the other.(so when the motor starts it wont rip you arms off.)I could easily design something like this,but I imagine this should be enough of a start for you.
