- La scie de long, ou bambane, est une grande scie à déligner maniée par deux ou trois personnes ; elle permet de transformer un tronc ou une poutre en planches. Les scieurs de long sont chevriers ou renardiers (celui qui se trouve en haut de l'échafaudage se nomme « chevrier », celui qui est en dessous se nomme « renard », et il protège ses yeux de la sciure par un vieux sac ou un grand chapeau). Debout sur le rondin, ou plus souvent sur une pièce précédemment équarrie à la hache, le chevrier remonte la scie, qui descend ensuite de son propre poids aidée par l'impulsion du renardier. (fr)
- A whipsaw or pitsaw was originally a type of saw used in a saw pit, and consisted of a narrow blade held rigid by a frame and called a frame saw or sash saw (see illustrations). This evolved into a straight, stiff blade without a frame, up to 14 feet long and with a handle at each end. The upper handle was called the tiller and the lower one the box, so called from its appearance and because it could be removed when the saw was taken out of one cut to be positioned in another. The whipsaw was used close to the felling site to reduce large logs to beams and planks. Sawyers either dug a large pit or constructed a sturdy platform, enabling a two-man crew to saw, one positioned below the log called the pit-man, the other standing on top called the top-man. The saw blade teeth were angled and sharpened as a rip saw so as to only cut on the downward stroke. On the return stroke, the burden of lifting the weight of the saw was shared equally by the two sawyers, thereby reducing fatigue and backache. The pitman had to contend with sawdust in his mouth and eyes and the risk of being crushed by a falling log, although modern photographs show the saw dust falling, as would be expected, away from the pitman, the teeth being on the opposite edge from him.
