    I love watching you with the animals,especially with the cats I have 2black cats they wear the air tags,here in England we have foxes they wont really go after the cats not like the coyotes. I love Dexter Morgan and Fozzy bear I love them all. I love the way Dexter hugs your leg when you stroke him, and fuzzy bear when he wants you to scratch his back because he’s a big boy and can’t reach to scratch himself properly but a good brush, it will come out if not you can cut the knot of hair off if he has one. when I had horses, we had farm cats. I love Olive too she a lovely dog and she loves you and she gets on so well with the Cats I love to watch them interacting. we’re doing a good job and I really enjoy watching your channel. I look forward to each episode thank you.

Soon I am going to get a shirt with beautiful Molly and some day would like a shirt with Ms. Olive. I am waiting for my Fozzy Bear shirt to see how it fits and then will order Molly's shirt. Until Monday, have a fun weekend.

    I’m a mechanical engineer. Here’s what I would do..
    1. For the wood dust discharge, the outlet appears to be at about 30 degrees. I’d get a rain spout transition piece that goes from the horizontal piece on the roof to the vertical downspout, which would discharge down into the bucket.
    2 . For your scythe, I’d do what fishermen do for their fishing poles on the beach. Get a 2”-3” piece of PVC about 2 ft long and pound it into the ground or mount it on a 1 ft X 1 ft piece of wood for base support.

    I enjoyed this video. I was thinking that my dear dad would have been in "hog-heaven" if he had a wood mill like this. He was a frustrated carpenter who had to work in a bakery to support his family. A family who has a youtube channel in Arizona is harvesting logs and using this brand of sawmill to make lumber. The father has made several upgrades to his sawmill. The sawdust bucket for sure and he has expended the length for longer logs.

    Hello Chad, did you open the valve at the bottom of the tank ? Make sure that it is open. Chad, alway make sure you open and have water, and add some dish soap to help cool the blade. In the winter time you put in wiper fluid to the tank, no water. Very nice to have your own log mill. Good Job. I see you got the water going, go out and look for some bigger logs, cut the down, then start building. 😁
