People nowadays saw the logs into short sections, maybe 2 feet long.
Before chainsaws, even logs for firewood weren't usually cut any shorter than 4'. Splitting a 4' log is easier and faster. The end user could saw them shorter if needed with a buck saw.

Concept is a small guide that attaches to the bar and fits a 2 x 4.
The 2x is temporarily attached to the the log with some screws. I recall cross pieces were used but why ecapes me right now.

Well put it this way, they came off of a1970 440, but I can’t guarantee they’re correct for a superbird

Sounds like some well deserved cooling down time
 
Survived the HOA meeting but not w/o casualties, I am now the V.P. Hoping for not too much drama and just dealing with the road that we maintain.
