I asked about this here before and a few members were kind enough to share their stories in an attempt to convince me not to do such a thing. As I recall the stories included a chunk launched into a low earth orbit, one that put a significant dent in the siding, and another who had his thumb mangled a bit when the log rotated in the saw. It convinced me that while convenient a mitre saw is not the way to make wood chunks.

I love my Husqvarna 435; replaced an el cheapo Remington electric that leaked bar oil like crazy. No problems with oil splatter from the Husky.
I also have pranged up a perfectly good miter saw blade trying to cross cut small logs, so caution advised if you go that route.

If its an electric that your only using for that purpose, why not just fill it with Vegetable oil? I saw a guide in wyoming do that with a small gas saw just to quater Elk. Worked real slick and was alot quicker and easier than boning on site,
Otherwise I use the wood I cut with my Stihl all the time with no apparent issues. |

I cut logs in 14-18" lengths with my Husky. No visible oil.
Pre Husky, I ran an old Dolmar for 15 yrs, w/o problems. Ya gotta keep em sharp... Are you sure it was oil, and not where a chain is getting dull and leaving burnt looking spots on the wood? |
