What a beautiful wood. Glad it was excavated from the rain forest. Personally I don't like the idea of cutting deown growing trees. (WHICH this tree is clearly NOT. As it was already on the ground or in the ground when found.) Responsible (my and others definition) logging should cut only trees from MANAGED forests. But salvaging in/on the ground logs is fair game. AND much encouraged. Some of those lost logs can be quite unique and large. If it was mine, I would cut for many large tables (conference, dining, bars) and even a few round ones. One concern I have is that being on the rainforest floor this wood must (assumption) have a high moisture content, as it dries it would naturally cup as they are rift sawing the wood. Some checking has already been seen which could be mitigated with epoxy.
I wish, on these types of videos, that people would tell us what species of trees these are. I know that this tree was "excavated" and they didn't see it growing, but most people can tell what their native trees are by the look of the trunk and woodgrain.
Ekop wood is also known as Ekop Meyer or Ekop Zing, when imported to Vietnam it is often called go wood. This type of wood often grows and develops well in fertile land, so Ekop wood is very large in size, but its hardness is not as good as Pachy or Gana wood. Durable: Ekop wood has good impact and strength resistance, so furniture made from this type of wood has a long life. Good termite resistance: Ekop wood when processed through modern production processes and machinery does not have mold or termites. Beautiful wood grain: Ekop wood grain is relatively uniform, creating a unique appeal for the product. Ability to carve sophisticated lines: The next outstanding advantage of Ekop wood is that it is used to make sophisticated fine art products, can be carved with a smooth surface and has high screw holding ability. Disadvantages The price of Ekop wood is quite high. The weight of Ekop wood is quite heavy, so when producing furniture, it will take time to transport.

My brother has a 100 foot long, six foot diameter cedar log left behind by loggers in the late 1800s when it fell into a steep gully. After over 100 years the rot has only penetrated a couple of inches.
Red wood, other names such as tiger skin, cate (binomial name: Afzelia xylocarpa), is a plant species of the legume family, growing in some Southeast Asian countries such as: Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and Myanmar.
Yeah, I apologize for what I wrote because I did not read the title until after I put the comments so I apologize for what I said to the owner of the video
Sir! I am just an ordinary person! I have no noble mission! I spend time and effort to record the last and most beautiful moments of trees! I always want to live in peace and wonderful nature, but for many reasons, trees are cut down a lot! I am very sorry for that! On behalf of millions of hearts that love nature around the world, I will record the most wonderful moments of trees! I hope everyone will know them as immortal monuments and their last memories in their mission on earth.
@@luatmac I own a construction company and I naturally correct a bad habit as the owner...I'm more worried about my employee's health and a liability for my company... I'm in philly, I've been doing work for many south pacific clients...I have a big neighborhood with many of them...Great people! Hard workers! Good health and happiness to you and yours!
Yes, thank you very much. The boss also equipped us with full protective gear. But it is a habit that has been ingrained in us since ancient times! We have experienced 5000 years of Chinese domination and colonialism! We fought and repelled invaders with only primitive weapons and no protective gear! Until now, the people here living in peace is the greatest happiness for them! They are hard-working and very sociable. Although the boss always reminds us about protective gear, they prefer to wear the most comfortable and free clothes possible. Thank you very much! You are a very good boss! I wish you good health and create jobs for more people.
Did you read the title of the video before making your comment. The title clearly states' Excavating Rotton Wood '. Says nothing about cutting down a 1000 year old live tree. Furthermore the old have to make way for the new and young. That is the law of nature.
@@RodManFB who are you too tell me what I think or not it’s a open platform off free speech it’s certainly nothing too do with you what I say or not hope that puts ur mind at rest
Yes, sir. I have also answered many such comments. But the truth is that in my country, wearing protective gear is not mandatory in companies like this! We have gone through more than 1000 years of Chinese domination, 120 years of fighting against the invasion of the 3 largest powers in the world, we fought back and defeated foreign invaders with only primitive weapons and no protective gear! That's why we are used to wearing comfortable clothes to work! The bosses have fully equipped us with shoes, clothes, hats... but we want to wear free clothes to work as comfortably as possible! Many people in the world wonder about protective gear! We just laugh! Maybe they will think that we disregard life, but behind us are wives and children, so we will try our best and everyone is safe! Maybe it was the smooth coordination at work and God's blessing on us.
We have gone through 1000 years of Chinese domination and 2 resistance wars against France and America! We won with primitive weapons and absolutely no protective gear.
Each region, each country, each tribe has its own culture. So do we! We may not be able to keep up with the times due to economic reasons, but we have tried to work hard to support our families, and more than that, we always learn more to have a better working environment than now.
If the tree is rotten or dying, it’s one thing, but if it’s a perfectly healthy tree, it should not be cut down for profit because the rainforest needs big trees like that. It makes it look nicer if the big trees disappear then all the beauty disappears with it..
You can make the same table using smaller trees that grow faster they have species of trees that you can harvest every five or 10 years. However, big trees like this one you cannot plants and expected it to grow in five or 10 years. It takes about 500 1000 years to get big like that. I think that’s really selfish of you to go and cut it just to make table for rich people to eat drink, coffee or for decoration.
@@PasqualeMieleJr-ox5rf Did you actually watch the video. HE DID NOT CUT DOWN ANYTHING. THE TREE WAS DEAD, IT FELL DOWN AND WAS BURIED IN THE FOREST FLOOR.

@@ChilanBrooks-fh2tz You owe this man an apology. He did not waste anything, he dug out a tree that had died years ago and fell over and in due course. He dug out the partly rotted tree and rescued the reclaimable wood. Thus he put to use something that would produce CO2 in its rotting.
Hahaha!!!dont say bad words(before you got angry) check the spelling of your word first (waste) is the correct not waist what is it bewang hahaha sorry🥰
This is not a tree, it is the king of trees! I would have liked to see him when he was still standing.🙂🙂
Sorry sir! It might have died long ago.

7:08 That chainsaw is really dull. Sharp chains produce wood chips....dull chains produce sawdust.
We sharpened the saw right away.
At least it will be used to make something that will carry on for another 100 years instead of rotting in the jungle
yes sir
Its a pity your video did not start in the rain forest digging out that lovely timber superbly done .
sir. due to environmental and geographical factors! i can't do it
Looks as if that tree was cut down a hundred odd years ago.
We don't know when it was cut down, but it probably died a long time ago.

Yes. That's right sir! After a while, the wood will crack and tear! But with our expertise, we have preserved it very well.

Saw bands must be removed and sent out for resharpening every five days. So the lumber machine has about 30 spare saw bands in wait.
This sawmill currently has 70 spare saw blades. The blades will be replaced every 5 sawing operations, sir.
I see by the comments, people don’t know what excavating means.
It means it was buried underground for a long time and people discovered it and dug it up with difficulty sir.
@@luatmac I know, I said it because of all the people complaining about cutting the tree down when they really dug it up.
yes. everyone has a different mindset and i respect that
@@luatmac Very well Madam.
Beautiful Video

Does anyone know the age of this tree, there must be a person ere who has a good guess.
How old do you think it is?
I think it’s wrong to cut big trees down that are 1000 years old just so you can make a table for some rich people.
You're entitled to your opinion.
Old trees often emit a large amount of CO2! And the law of all things that grow old will die! They need to make room for the next ecosystem.
1 opinion will not change human greed sir
In all likelihood this tree fell down many years ago. As he said, they dug it out of the forest floor, trimmed it and are now using it.
@@dougthomson5544 facts help. it would be such a waste if the tree rotted away and its inner beauty not revealed for people's enjoyment.
