Good followup to your original post, even if it failed.
FWIW, those "pocket chainsaw" tools (essentially a chainsaw chain with handles on each end, for manual operation) aren't great either, and fall into the large category of survivalist gimmicks.
Your previous Homemade Tool of the Week winning Compact Retractable Saw is the frontrunner in this category of tools. Also your Micro Folding Saw was a useful build.
Thank you. It's wonderful to know that people enjoy my homemade projects.
That is a good followup video. The addition of a bucking spike was nice.
Hand-cranked medical chainsaws were the predecessors to modern day chainsaws. Two 1800s versions:

Wow. I didn't even know there were such things. super
Instead of a chain saw blade, which probably requires in the region of 1 hp to operate on a short blade, how would your idea work if you used a narrow sanding belt? (I enjoyed you touch of humour when you admitted your failure).
Thank you. there are failures and it tempers. I like the sanding belt idea.
