That sap wood was crazy, but I guess that's what can happen when an oak grows on its own with no other trees around it to make it compete for light and grow straight.

If it's as bad as all the complaining you have done during milling the log, why mill it?

I’ve Liked/Subscribed/Commented - the Holy YT trinity for you Sir 😅 I really enjoy your easy style and method of editing . Look forward to checking more of your content sir ✊ 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Question folks, would a metal detector used for treasure hunting passed over the log detect the metal in the log?

I learned a lot….thank you….

Don't I just LOVE it when a down to earth pro gives us info without a repetitive electronic Soundtrack that adds nothing and detracts enormously?

Very interesting, you look like you really enjoy your work, hats off to you.I sear I could smell the saw dust at one point That is an impressive saw, I couldn't help but wonder how old that nail was that you pulled out

Very entertaining. Brings back memories!

Sorry but I could watch this stuff all day long! This guy is amazing! My ONLY comment is, "Does he ever wear ear protection?" As a shop teacher who never did, my hearing is really shot. ❤😂😎👍🇺🇸🎯

We just survived a hurricane here in the Houston area and there were a lot of fine hardwood trees like oak as well as many softer wood trees like pine that were down after they were uprooted by Hurricane Beryl. A large oak tree came down on top of my storage shed crashing through the roof. I couldn't help but to wish I had a saw mill like yours so I could go around and collect all the find timber to be milled up into high quality premium lumber for building homes and furniture.

might have been more lucrative to cut thick slabs that could be used for the popular slab/ live edge tables . they comment a good price and unusual grain patterns are considered a plus instead of a problem

Great work, but jeez, keep those logs clean!

it's obvious you haven't had this mill very long because you are not used to running this machine..

man you are super slow at this.. this is getting super boring.. come on man, speed this up, this video sucks..

A felt blade wiper system would be a good upgrade for this saw. I have a 1983 Lt 30 that is still sawing 5-6 days a week. That mod saved me alot of headaches with using excessive lube. I mounted mine inside the band wheel cover to keep it out of the way. Great channel by the way!!

You make it look easy. If I could, I'd try this as a side business. Maybe one day. Like your narration over the video and the straight-forward editing style. Subscribed.

👍

Could you put in the crack some I ties. To stop the crack from running???

If you are close to Northwest Alabama, I have almost 50 acres of mixed Forest with Hardwoods and Pine that I’m going to start thinning out some big Trees

Thanks.

I use an angle grinder with a carving wheel to debark a log it works a lot better than a hammer. I does make a mess

Some great editing and commentary made this a delightful milling video to watch!

I love the smell of fresh cut wood. Just like the smell of fresh cut grass. My brother in law made a back deck, and a bridge across his creek with lumber he cut down and choped up in Indiana. Oak and popular I think.

Excellent work you have performed. Lots of good oak the storm blew down all over Houston and Harris county. If l were a younger man, l would cut and mill ten red oak logs that is going to be groined up and carried to the dump. Berry’s Custom Cabinets

He needs to have a metal detector.

Watching this milling videos but this has to be s video all the way through was like saw-milling 101. I have seen quite a few, but this is by far the most educational. Thank you for having the patience to put this together!

You work that cant like you're supposed to. Tip of the hat to you.. From an old miller.

First time watching your video , was quite interesting. My son is a home builder by trade and would like to learn more about the wood.

Good video, well explained!

You demonstrate the artistry of your profession. I am impressed by the thought that goes into it. I admire you.

Wow one nail finished a new blade that is bad ! Oh yeah well that's life great looking lumber though

Do you have the PN you used or a link to the part?

Id be going over that log with a metal detector saw your going to be getting they cutting blade dull

Have you ever cut any lumber for instrument makers? Examples would be spruce, maple, walnut, cherry, cedar (juniper or cypress), alder, and ash. I'm a new subscriber, and I want to say thanks, for doing what you do! Nice job!

These mills are too slow.

What is sap wood?

Enjoying your explanation on what you’re doing and why it’s being done. Never knew about the blue staining, thanks. 9:21

I noticed your laser works pretty good. could you please tell us a brand and source? Thanks in advance.

I must admit, I wasn’t expecting much from that log.

Probably the best psycho therapy available. Thanks for sharing, brother. Love your work.

The only fun part of edging flitches is the speed you can run the mill down the track😁 We've had a stack of them flip to the side like you mention and never broke the blade but have put a crimp in one making it unusable.

Well done as always. We tried the spray bottle of diesel with the remaining white pine we milled, and it worked well.

Awesome ted!

Of all the sawing videos I've watched you are the only one that voice over explained what you were doing, well done

Just watched that video of the big ol cherry slabbed at 2-3/4 inches. Seems you doing pretty good with your retirement!

How much you getting for one of these slabs? Or are you making furniture your self out of it?

Good work there Mr Roe. One trick I picked up from Middlefield Custom Sawmill is on the 180 flip is to lift it up and put one inch stickers on the bunks that way the log (not sure if it's a cant at that point) can be slid over the short nub stops a couple inches to give the effect like it was before with the belly hanging over the roller stops. Of course you may want to say a quick prayer that the cant doesn't slide over further when cutting 😁

It sounds like it should do the job. It was looking a little light in the back end, do you have fluid in the rear tires?

Don't get too excited now. 🦜🦜🤣

I noticed right away that you called it "black cherry" which is what I've always called it my whole life. Other channels just call it cherry, and I'm speaking of those out east and northeast. As a woodworker, I love this, but I see useable pieces in the rest of the cant which are not profitable to cut but useable(for me). A friend who has some wooded land here in SW MO said that a buyer turned down the cherry trees on his place because cherry here in this part of the country is not good quality for grade lumber. Do you have any knowledge & comments about this?
