Best Answer

The origin is debated, but the first "chainsaw" was made around 1830 by the German orthopaedist Bernard Heine. Known as the osteotome the instrument was designed to remove diseased bones. The first chainsaws built for tree felling appeared around 1920-1930 with Andreas Stihl often being attributed as the father of modern chainsaws (although it is disputed to have been made by multiple other people)

Where was chainsaw invented?

the chain saw was invented in Germany that's true here's more It took a "village" to create the machine we call the chainsaw. Around 1830 German Dr. Bernard Heine invented the osteotome, a chainsaw-like tool powered by a winder had links of a chain carrying small cutting teeth with the edges set at an angle. Then in 1861, the Hamilton saw that was hand-cranked by one or two men and looked like a spinning wheel is invented. Then in the 1880s a riding saw that resembled a rowing machine that workers could sit on was invented. Then in 1926 Andreas Stihl patented the first electric-powered cutoff chain saw. In 1927 Emil Lerp developed the first gasoline-powered chainsaw. In 1929 Stihl invented his own version of the gasoline-powered variety and began mass-production. In 1948 Joseph Cox invented the Oregon chain with interlocking links, a product so popular he founded the Oregon Chain Co. and mass-produced them. Then in 1960, the Oregon Company released the Homelite chainsaw series, the first truly portable chainsaw.
