StarrEtt ScrIbErS 

The rigidity, light-weight, and easy handling advantages of the Starrett divider make it the 

favorite of log builders everywhere! The features of this divider include steel construction, 

forged legs, quadrant, knurled lock nuts and tempered points. This sturdy construction 

overcomes the possibility of the legs moving with the grain when scribing. The dual vial 

bubble attachment is fully adjustable. It rotates 360 degrees thus facilitating both vertical 

and horizontal scribing. 

The Starrett divider combined with the rear mount dual vial bubble attachment makes 

this unit the most popular log scriber we have ever supplied to students, individual home 

builders and contractors. Since the early 1970’s more homes have been built using Starrett 

scribers than any other scriber. This unit is practically a must for accurate and tight fitting 

joints.

peeLing TOOLs 

cuStom draWKnIvES 

These heavy duty log builder drawknives are manufactured from spring steel milled to 

a 23 degree edge and tempered to a 59 Rockwell hardness. This resists chipping while 

still maintaining a sharp edge. A sharpening stone should be used to touch up the edge. 

The tapered handles are angled and bonded epoxy to steel. This provides user comfort by 

minimizing hand slippage and finger cramping while still providing the user with maximum 

blade control. 

The handles are positioned for drawknife to be used in the bevel down position. The two 

handle spreads are enough to peel most size logs while the different weights enable the 

removal of small knots and stubborn bark.

arr hand ForgEd SPEcIaLty tooLS 

Hand forging with hammers compresses the steel, introducing more carbon into a smaller area. After annealing, the tools are 

quenched, then tempered to the proper hardness. This process produces a superior edge that maintains its edge longer. 

All slicks, chisels and gouges come with socket fitted handles with steel shock rings on those that are meant to be struck. All 

are attractively finished, sharpened and ready to use. Many current owners can attest to their quality.

- Twin high carbon steel blades for quick cutting action. 

- Blades replaceable and sharpenable. 

- Shaft acts as a stop with set screw for consistently same length each time. 

- Blades butt against shoulder for easy set. 

- Built in level.

This combination of the drill carriage and manual clamp makes for hassle free alignment 

and cutting of tenons. This is especially useful and time saving when cutting numerous 

spindles for railings or in furniture manufacturing. The drill carriage holds the drill in places 

on a slide rail frame. The drill carriage, drill and tenon cutter as a unit is manually pushed or 

slid into the end of the clamped stock, cutting the tenon. The self-centering manual clamp 

opens up to 5 ¼” and locks into the drill carriage for maximum rigidity. The drill carriage is 

especially designed to work with the Milwaukee ¾” drill model 1854-1.

cannon carvEr & SuPErmInI ProFESSIonaL barS 

Manufactured since 1955, Cannon bars have long been renowned as state of the art in the chainsaw industry. One of 

the big features of Cannon bars is that the groove is machined as opposed to being ground for mass produced bars. This 

results in the groove being more precise right from new. Every Cannon bar is also put through rigorous quality assurance 

checks prior to packaging. The steel used in their manufacturing is also harder resulting in at least several times the life 

of mass produced bars by customer own testimonials. Although costing somewhat more than mass produced bars, the 

benefits and longevity are well worth the price. 

Cannon has long made the regular Super felling bar, then the carving bar, and more recently has undertaken to 

manufacturing the Super Mini Professional bar which was once manufactured by Windsor before they were bought out. 

ImPortant: When ordering bars, we require the following information to get you the right bar. 

- Make and model of your chainsaw 

- Length of bar required 

- Pitch of chain and thickness gauge of driver being used. If 3/8” pitch, whether it is “regular 3/8” pitch (larger) or 

“Low Profile” (smaller)

is required. Available in .050” gauge groove.

This attachment clamps to any chain saw in seconds transforming it into a giant vertical 

cutting jigsaw. It is laterally angularly adjustable through 75˚ from vertical. It has a wide 

sturdy base plate which fully supports the weight of the saw through its angular range and 

provides excellent stability for accurate freehand cuts with a long cutting bar. By using the 

top cutting edge of the bar, the chain cutters throw wood chips away from the operator 

and cut area. This in combination with a large opening in the base plate and the U-shaped 

chain bar clamp located will behind the upper cutting edge of the chain bar provide an 

unobstructed view of the cutting chain as it is applied to the wood. With the HEADCUTTER 

the operator can easily guide the chain saw to follow a snap-line or scribed arc making it the 

perfect “framer’s” tool for gang cutting ganged lumber, beams placed on edge, structural 

insulated roof panels, etc. beyond the reach of most circulars.

In this, B. Allen Mackie’s latest book, he takes us on the exciting ride of following the 

building of his personal home almost entirely by himself on a large acreage in Ontario. He 

demonstrates in this book that with the right attitude, a will to learn and a desire to create 

something of one’s own, the average person is more than capable of building a log house 

that will serve them for many, many years. Supported by hundreds of photographs and 

detailed drawings and with the consideration of the ecology in mind, we are taken through 

the entire process of selecting the land, purchasing and preparing the logs and the entire 

steps of building the home right up to moving in and spending the first winter.
