La scie à châsse se compose d'un grand cadre fixe dans lequel peut glisser de haut en bas et de bas en haut un autre cadre au moyen de coulisses. Ce second cadre (mobile) retient, à son centre, une scie verticale qui devra osciller de haut en bas sur une distance de 45 à 50 centimètres, un peu à la façon d'une «jig saw» (scie à chantourner) moderne. Il faut donc qu'un bras mécanique quelconque tire de bas en haut et peu après de haut en bas. La force motrice doit venir de l'arbre de couche. 1, record 2, French, - scie%20%C3%A0%20ch%C3%A2sse

Pit sawing operations have a long and vibrant history. Well before circular saws were used to saw logs lengthwise, they were processed by placing them over a "pit"-hence the reference to "pit saw. "The saw operates vertically up and down. Operated by two men, a man on top, known as the "Top Dog", guided the saw as it was pulled down in a cutting motion by the "Underdog. "The "Top dog" recovered the saw and the "Underdog" then pulled it down in a cutting motion again. Needless to say the "Underdog" copped a fair bit of sawdust. The top of the saw has a fixed "tiller handle" so the topdog can guide it and cut a straight line. The lower part of the saw has a "block" which is easily detachable with a wedge. The block can be taken off to allow the saw to be threaded through the saw cut. 1, record 3, English, - tiller%20handle

Le chevrier grimpait à pieds déchaux sur le tronc.

Au sol, le renard lui faisait face, jambes écartées. Il était couvert d'un chapeau à larges bords ou tout simplement d'un vieux sac de toile, pour éviter de recevoir trop de sciure dans les yeux.
