This is a simple, yet sturdy, design for a sawbuck I found in "Bushcraft, Scouting, & Woodlore Notes" by Dr. R.W. Oelslager. All material was harvested off the landscape... except the sisal rope for lashing.

Here's a link to a folding sawbuck I built with dimensional lumber for my backyard woodpile if you're interested: survivalsherpa.wordpress.com/2013/11/06/building-a-sawbuck-work-smarter-in-the-woodpile

Thanks for watching, and, as always, Keep Doing the Stuff of Self-Reliance!
