Abstract
A portable stand for cutting timber has a base, a vertical support structure mounted upon the base and defining with the base a first functional area for resting timber thereupon to be cut. On the opposite side of the vertical support structure there is defined with the base a second functional area for an operator to be located. A beam is mounted horizontally upon and parallel to the vertical support structure. A chainsaw mount is pivotally disposed upon the beam for removably receiving a chainsaw, the chainsaw mount adapted for movement along the axis of the beam. A clamp arm clamps onto timber disposed upon the first functional area for resting timber.
