yes it's back to sawing with a big walnut log , hope you enjoy! We now have a online store for shirts & hats at markgalicicchannel.com/ so go check it out.
My career is white collar (I design the user experiences of software and tech hardware). It's a different world. But I'm also a craftsperson. I strive to make useful and well-crafted things, and in that way, I relate 100% to these fine folks. Some people would say "Why so many videos? You've see one log, you've seen 'em all". But every log is different. Different size, different shape, different wood, different qualities of that wood, and so on. Every new log is a new challenge, and it's a joy to watch these masters at work, making the most out of what they have to work with. Thanks for posting, and please keep it up!
Catching up on some of your old videos Mark and Eddie. That walnut was so beautiful you could not have asked an artist to paint you a more perfect board face. And you are right. I can hear Nathan about this log and see the water getting tossed on it!
my Grandfther immigrated to Pittsberg PA, and 2 of my uncles worked as sawyers and maintenance in BC , Canada..as a 4yr old kid my dad scolded me to keep my hands off his portable saw- mill main circle gang saw..on the farm..when he had time in the summer he built an ice house,, smoke house, some farm buildings and lean-too off the barn for a sled and horse equipment....mom had her favorite Jersey cows, and sold the extra cream in town
Now I see where the value in fine wood cuts starts. I'm not a sawyer, but I'm an old guy who loves wood. Watching you take a log and manipulate it to where the most interesting grains are exposed is an art. I seriously appreciate your videos.
Wow! Alot of beautiful wood came off that log. I bet lots of people watching would like to get their hands on some of it, myself included. I bet even the off cuts & slivers are in high demand
I worked in a mill in North Leverett, MA in the mid-70's on the 'takeaway' side. On day our Sawyer, Bernie Jablonski, hit something in a pine log that caused a 'half-moon' to fly out of the blade. It hit Bernie flat in the back of his calf. What an imprint! It hurt like the dickens but it could have done some real damage.
I love the sounds of a sawmill. My dad was an old time woodworker born in 1898. He learned from his dad. He did everything. He milled, built houses and did fine cabinet work. I remember the sounds of woodworking all of my life. I'm 67 y/o now.
Some beautiful Lumber you got out of this Majestic Old Black Walnut Log, Enjoyed watching you cut it up and losing nothing more than the saw dust, You Is The Man,
Greetings everyone viewing, that log would give everything for home, table and chairs, bed and my closet my kitchen cupboards, just about everything for my home, brilliant job mark,keep it up,
nut trees are so aromatic and earthy smelling. a fibrous and dense I just love that about walnut and hickory. the prettiest patterns in the grain nature has to offer
My grandfather had an excavation company. As a result he was able to obtain lots of trees. So he built a saw mill to make good use of those trees. It was steam powered. I used to get in trouble all the time for playing in the sawdust pile.
There was some beautiful wood in that log. I remember seeing big old growth walnut and chestnut back in the early 60’s that my uncle milled. There was a lot of beautiful old trees like that in Vermont where he logged. Mostly he took maple and oak for flooring, some pine for paneling and the occasional other hardwoods when he came across a good log.
The mill in Iowa that I worked at had the edger right after the saw so we sawed, edged, and stacked finished lumber. We had dry kilns also so we made furniture grade lumber, railroad ties, cants that we re-saved for our pallet business. We made pallets for John Deere, case ih, Alcoa,leffubre,
Hi guys! I am a new subscriber- just found your site. We bought a lot on a lake in central Ontario Canada and started cleaning it up. We noticed there was an old saw mill on the site years ago. We found a bunch of dead heads in the lake and took them out with an old pontoon boat - dragged them up on shore and tried to find what they were. They were totally water logged except for the one end sticking out of the water. You wouldn't believe what we found - a species called blue oak! We let it dry for a couple of years and had the wood milled - beautiful stuff- 15 ftlong and 12inches at the butt. Made rocking chairs, tables and other things - This wood was beautiful and HARD as a rock. Ever heard of blue oak? I sure didn't.
Mark said something about cold mornings. I remember making a delivery to a mill when it was -50F and only one guy got there. He was putting anti-freeze into the pneumatic lines so the equipment didn't freeze and frost shatter. That was back in the 70s.
MANY of those would make Spectacular Grandfather clocks I saw Several images in the grain . . . _Fabulous_ piece of wood !! Hide a few away, or buy the whole thing...!!
Beautiful work Sr... I`m a textile and graphic designer in California and I always feel grateful when I see textures in the wilderness and this one is a real beauty. You are in a good place where you can discover every day the wonderful of the creation. Thank you for share.
Love the sweet note coming from that Detroit when the saw takes a full cut. Beautiful grain structure from that log, pleasing to the eye. Thanks for your video...
That's a stunning batch of wood. It's a pity that the pattern will become less vibrant as it darkens while drying, but it's still going to look fabulous.
First time I’ve seen one of your videos. It was fascinating. I did subscribe. It’s amazing that a grown man will sit and watch a dude cut wood for 30 minutes.
Thank you for this video, I always wondered How they cut those beautiful trees. It must be a surprise every time to see how beautiful the grain is. God bless! 🙏❤️🙏
Really spectacular grain pattern and I have been cutting trees for 35 years and never have I seen black walnut in Indiana with that grain !!! Nice job gents
That was the best grains I ever seen, unbelievable how awesome your mill is, the very best I have seen on you tube. Is it possible to get to see that in person, that would be my first time ever witnessing Live!! Thanks for your work!
The customer who owns that wood is very fortunate that you operate that mill in such a proficient manner. You are like a surgeon. You literally explained everything that you did. No waste. None. I like your set up a lot and I’m learning a lot bye watching. Thank you for such a great video.

That is one beautiful piece of Walnut ! My favorite wood to work with.
I'm so proud you have a welsh flag displayed! Thank you.

People used to tell me that a mill Sawyer --can make or break a sawmill, a lot of mills in BC used to burn down...no one knew why.
Who knew the middle of a tree was so STUNNING ! The patterns of the grain are BEAUTIFUL!
Everyone that lives outside the city knows. ;)

How spectacular it must be to own that land and have your own sawmill on it. I life worth living. 🇺🇲🙏
It really is a beautiful black walnut log

Love watching you guys 😊
walnut is always so nice. Even ugly logs turn out great, and at every stage it is nice to work with.
yes it is.
I know you guys are working hard but sitting in my armchair I find your videos and voice over the most peaceful on You Tube,

Me too. The sound of the big circular disks. Such a lovely ringing sound.
My dad did the same he owned a saw mill for a while

The grain in this log reminded me of a Van Gogh painting. Absolutely wonderful, too bad about the shake...
My grandfather had an excavation company. As a result he was able to obtain lots of trees. So he built a saw mill to make good use of those trees. It was steam powered. I used to get in trouble all the time for playing in the sawdust pile.
I do watch Nathan, but having run both circle saw and band saw mills, I much prefer the circle saw even considering the extra kerf.
Beautiful patterns in the grain of the log. Thanks for sharing this with us Mark and Eddie
Man that walnut is gorgeous even before it turns color!

Some beautiful wood out of that log .
All and all still a beautiful piece of hard wood.They are becoming scarce
I like that you narrate the whole way!!! Kept me watching and made it more interesting! Keep up the cutting!
Really spectacular grain pattern and I have been cutting trees for 35 years and never have I seen black walnut in Indiana with that grain !!! Nice job gents
Exactly, looks more like Claro walnut than Black
That log looked as if it had been cut and sitting on the ground for quite some time
@marcchatterson-xq7qt
That's what I was thinking, too. I had some birch that had a similar spalted look to it.
Or does walnut darken as it dries?
Shake rattle and roll! Love to hear that motor lug!
