  • Digging some old "bog wood" out of my 50 acre woodlot. These logs are western red cedar and are extremely rot, bug, and decay resistant. The loggers left these logs behind when they logged 4-5 years ago and now I am salvaging the wood and making beautiful lumber out of it for customers.

      @@SJForestProducts I think the same way. I love turning what would otherwise be firewood into useable timber and then make things with it. There's nothing more satisfying then having people ask you where you got something and then being able to tell them that you not only made it but also milled the timber for it.

    You really need to get a lot of those chips out of their the machine will run better I noticed as you were running that the runners were having to push sawdust out of the way that could cause you some bad boards diving excetera that's just from the knowledge that I've gotten from watching a lot of sawmill work I always wanted one take care and be safe 🤠😎

    Didn't know you were into lumber Beautiful wood. Have you watched Mat Cremona He saws beautiful slabs for tables. I am no longer to operate a sawmill. I had to sell mine. I enjoy watching yoy get logs sawed into usable lumber. I often think of how I would saw a log to get the best and most board feet out of a log. wish you well. Why don't you get your own saw mill?

    Didn’t know you were into forestry or had another channel. Awesome
    I’m a big fan of your mining channel. Got a claim with a lot of silver with gold too, I found the video about the parkes process very informative and helpful.
    I know all about cedar, we have some big ones here on the BC coast.
    Seems odd those cedar butts were left behind like that. There’s clearly some value left in them. Whenever I’ve cut for poles the cedars have always been a lot smaller in diameter. I’d love to do what your doing and salvage cedar and mill it myself.
    Question for ya; what do you think about the Sierra Blaster? For prospecting or small scale mining?

    • @SJForestProducts
      @SJForestProducts  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Glad you found us here on our new channel! The sierra blaster is a good tool for surface blasting or boulders, but its hard underground because the rock needs to be broke up enough already or have somewhere to break to. It doesn't work very well on a hard face of rock.
