Cutting aid in forestry
In order to cut tree trunks and branches to the same length, a cutting aid is often used in forestry.With the standard models available in stores, they have to be screwed to the saw.
This ensures that the cutting rod is safely in place, but it also makes it hard to attach and remove.
Materials needed
- 1 x TCN-32: neodymium pot magnet Ø 32 mm with screw socket
- 1 x treaded bar M5 in desired length
- 2 x locking nuts M5
- 1 x wing nut M5
- 2 x washers ∅ 2 cm / hole ∅ 6 mm
- 1 x aluminium disc ∅ 7-8 cm
- 1 x drill ∅ 7 mm
Drill a 7 mm hole in the middle of the aluminium disc, and for better visibility, paint the disc with fluorescent paint.
Now screw a TCN-32 pot magnet
to the one end of the M5 threaded bar.
