    Great book for a beginner . th-cam.com/users/postUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ this book really starts from the beginning, as in it explains what basic tools are and how to use them. But when it gets to the art of creating joints and how and when to use them this book really starts to teach you something. At least that was my experience.

    first of all it's good to see you well after an eventful year in your parts. probably most of us who follow your work in the forest have noted the long silence and wished the best for you
    interesting to see your lumber milling evolve. it's pretty amazing how you're able to get that quality of boards milled with a chainsaw in a fairly primitive yet somewhat precise and very precisely understood setup. when i set up my sawmill in the forest (a regular gas-powered bandsaw type), i first mounted 30' (about 9 meters) of steel trackbed onto the ground at a predetermined slope, so that i'd only hold the saw to keep it stable while it cut, and gravity would do the hard work. of course my setup was not portable, which means you need equipment to drag timbers to it. your thing is bring the mill to the timber, wherever it is. but a gravity feed might still help you, and your design wouldnt be harmed by finishing the channel and guide mating surfaces with an oil finish mixed with beeswax. applied hot and wiped off, this would not only help preserve your hard work, but also greatly reduce friction
    as far as your epicondylitis i have two pieces of advice: 1) there is a physical therapy device that reverses the condition. there are several brands out there, 'theraband flexbar' is what is use. but there is also logest, dmoose, viking strength and otrhers. they all do the same thing. you can look up the research on it if it interests you, 2) aspirin, by which i do NOT mean ibuprofen (motrin) or acetaminphen (tylenol), just plain old regular strength aspirin. this is not for its analgesic effect, which is salutary, but for its anti-inflammatory effect. one tablet an hour before work reduces injury by reducing inflammation while the tendons are being used. if you find it's right for you to try these, i've no doubt you'll see excellent long-term results and almost immediate benefits from both therapies

    My goodness. I saw a notification on my phone as I was driving home from work that you posted a new video. You are an inspiration, I personally love the bee hive bottles, but I also think the boat is an awesome project.... heck, they're all awesome projects.
    Thanks for sharing, I can't wait for the next one!
    Happy holidays, and take care!

    Mate, I don’t own a chain saw, or have need for one, and I’m not sure why TH-cam has recommended your video to me…. But I’m so glad it did. It was a joy to see you logically go through the problem solving stage to get to the solution, bravo.

    Still the best channel on YT and confirms my reasons for donating on patreon, I think I speak for most when I say, we'd all love to see you quit your day job and do these projects full time.

    The 3 subjects would be very interested, but I must say I have a slight preference for the bee hive one ;)

    Glad to see you back. The quality of board that you can make with your chainsaw mill is really quite amazing. The part where the saw moves itself along the board was very cool. I think seeing how you build the bridge would be very interseting. Happy holidays! Thanks for the video!

    I enjoy everything you do, but since you ask what we would like next, I vote for the bee video. I enjoyed your last bee video a lot and you've inspired me to start beekeeping myself. All the best from Norway.

    So glad to see you! I've made 2 long 11" x 8" x 22' foot long beams for my cabin in Fairbanks Alaska with your free hand method, so this means alot to have more options.
    Your always welcome to migrate to Alaska in your boat...as has been done recently. I'll host you.

    Not only is Max intelligent, but has a "feel" for wood and metal, and understands precisely how tools and materials work in principle and practice. He works WITH his tools and materials instead of with brute force. Using the vibrations or the saw to keep it moving along constantly with such light pressure is devilishly clever!
