Anyone know what plates this guy is using to support those rails for the first cut (start at 3:50)? I need to buy or build a set.
Alaskan Chainsaw mill plates?

Looks like a DIY setup. Wouldn't be hard to do

Ah, the Alaskan mill. Makes me appreciate the day I sold mine and bought a Woodmizer. 
I simply used 20p nails with mine. Measured up from the log center, drove a pair of nails in each end about 1" or so, put a few down the log if long using a string line, then laid a 2x12 on top the nails for a guide. I cut 30+' long beams doing this, best use I found of a chainsaw mill.
