Indeed it’s a great service to enable a wonderful tree to become many new creations 👍😎
You’re a treasure Matt…….may you be blessed always. Bet you will be happy when the kitchen project is finished. 😀 Doing a fantastic job by the way 👍
I love watching you cut these trees and I love that the people value and cherish the trees and the history of them with their families and want to make them into something(s) that will live on and mean something to the people who have them for many more years to come! ❤
You know Matt you are a nice guy.
The offcuts alone are gold to woodturners!
Some of those chunks they pulled out of the middle might be able to be stabilized into some interesting blanks.
Excellent video. Your joy at unveiling the treasure each cut revealed was heart-warming. Thank you for sharing. It's a lot of work sawing and videoing at the same time. I'm sure you have many projects going at the same time. Stay safe and healthy!!!
Matthew: "Hello there! Ah, this is your eviction notice. Please vacate." 🤣🤣🤣
I always like saw day it’s amazing to see what is in these logs
Finally starting my first real woodworking project in a while, I’m turning a 2 by 4 into a Greenland kayak paddle. It’s a pretty easy and fun first project and I’m trying to just use hand tools.
came for the slab... stayed for the splishy-splashy scores lol. fun addition to the videos
There was a lot more meet on that log then I'd thought you'd get from it. What a funky tree.
Thanks for sharing that. I especially enjoy hearing you talk about the grain figure, wood compression, bark inclusions, etc and the likely reasons that caused the timber to grow as such and produce such beautiful and unusual appearances. That fellow had some beautiful table tops there; I'd really enjoy seeing some pictures of the 'finished' woodworking projects that were crafted from it. Thanks again, Matt 👍
That was an interesting adventure
Wow, that looks absolutely stunning. Great slabs.
Thank you..I like seeing the patterns and grain in the wood. There would be some turned platters coming from that black walnut.
Always love watching you mill the huge logs and trees into lumber. I wished I had mill like that. I will live vicariously through your channel while building mine. Lol.
As always awesome content.
The cutting is great and the stories are awesome.
Beautiful wood! Loved your process.I could watch it all the time . Thank you for sharing 👌 😊
Hey Matt......Dude you are the "bomb". Haven't watched your vids in a while. Oh, how I would love to see this in person. God Bless Man!!
I wouldn't mind having that one smaller piece that was maybe 20 to 22 inches wide an about 4 to 5 feet long that was leaning against the tree when you put water on it. That had some curl in it It would make a nice guitar body. The whole tree looks really nice. A lot nicer than I would have though from looking at the outside of the tree.
Matt, you are one of a kind guy. Helping people in every possible way, wow. God bless you and your family. I am sure you will get the rewards for what you are doing.
This the highlight of the internet milling. You never know what comes off the mill and hidden beauty inside the log.Nice work and real entertaining.
Fantastic job. I would have placed the whole thing in the burn pile!! you are the best at what you do!!
@2:37 "I'm glad it's not mine." I concur! 😊💯
Beautiful piece of wood 👍👍👍🧐🧐🧐
I see a couple of really nice gun stocks!!
I love the start of this as hes talking about the good end of this tree at 0:41 that little tree or whatever growing out of this dead log lol
An Excellent video. I enjoyed watching it 😊
Good Afternoon Cremona Family.
Great cuts,I always enjoy watching ..thanks
Great show, Matthew. You have a talent cutting some firewood log into something interesting !
I'm looking forward to the "A day in the woods" video when you harvest the dead ash trees on your property.
Always love the slabs work. You're respect for the trees really comes through like you can tell a story of how the tree went thru part of its life
If that's a walnut seedling, he could plant it & retain some familial history. Just a thought (haven't watched past the intro).
Unfortunately, extracting it from the bark without damaging the roots would be almost impossible. If it was me I’d give it a try, though.
That thing growing out the side of the log? That’s a weed
Thanks for sharing
Wow Matt, you hit the nail on the head! As far as size, until it was on your saw even video did not do this trunk justice. This thing is massive! Regardless of what becomes of the pieces I love that it did not sit somewhere and rot away.
always love watching you saw these giant logs. Have you ever reach out to those people who have made things from these giant slabs and asked them to sent you pictures of what they made and then post them here.
Just watched your video of the drinks cabinet - magic. Like the whisky Glemoranjie 12 year old, a wonderful drink. Try Cardhu Gold Reserve, that's if you haven't already. Regards Dave from Moray, malt whisky country here is Scotland.
When that guy rushed to catch the falling slab, I let out a gasp! Glad he did not get there in time to catch it.....and the resulting ride in an ambulance.
The most fascinating walnut ever!
Has to be one of the funkiest logs you've cut so far. I was waiting for it to fall apart a some point.
Don't let him fool you 😂there is a treasure grove of magic art here😁🇨🇦
Great to see people saying in comments that smaller off-cuts could be made into woodturning blanks, guitars, gunstocks, and more. I wish I knew someone with a mill and had a truck & trailer to go load up logs after several tornadoes in different parts of Michigan took down a LOT of big trees, all over the place. It would be great to see more cities with milling operations. Grand Rapids has free yard waste drop off, which turns into free woodchip mulch for residents. Plenty of big stumps in the GR yard for free firewood; some may be hardwood worth sawing. I bet people from around the world would love access to all the free "junk" in we leave lying around America.
Thank you for doing another sawyer video. I am impressed by how well the SLABmaster is holding up after all these years.
At about 43:26, that limb looks like a big feather! I would call this "The Feather Table" as a marketing tool! Beautiful stuff!
Thanks for sharing, Matt ,Great content
Matt, Good to see you smiling and enjoying the slabbing. So now you have a new little "house guest" and pet for Eloise… haha
walnut's so cool, it might be my favorite wood, it's almost perfect except it's not bug resistant at all except for termites
I have a very big walnut here. They really are just big weeds!
nice to see you back cutting logs. love the large logs
I enjoy watching your videos thank you for sharing
"Trees are weird." I'd add the best trees are really weird.
Like you, I love the stories behind the trees that you get to give a second life too. Maybe you can start including some of that second life? A quick refresh on the slabbing along with the eventual final pieces. (not the bonfire part)
Massive piece. Great stuff.
i enjoyed that cut..love to see you stack gold..and you did cook that blade,,haa Great work in less then an hour..
The beauty lies within 😁🇨🇦
Why haven't you added a power feed to that mill? I use a 24v wheelchair motor with a $15 speed controller, works great.
Hand cranking is SO "Old fashioned", Matthew !! 😅
Ok try this move for the judges next time. Running start jump off the cherry picker spinning double bucket splash
Awesome tree. Just spectacular wood.
However much I love the other material, and I do really enjoy it all, slabbing is still the king baby!
That slab at 22:20 would make an awesome dresser booked.
Awesome work.
You need a T-shirt “got bonus wood?”
Wow on that last slab shown in vertical face orientation!
on behalf of DEAD TREES = I THANK YOU !
real nice john
This log almost broke the goofiness scale. Most people would have sent that log to the firewood pile or wood chipper.
Hmmm....(thinking) a long tube to move water to the logs. It should be flexible. It should have a means of turning water on and off going into it.
I shall call it, A HOSE!
Because these hosers need help! :)
You should put "Trees are weird" on a t-shirt and start selling them.
@43:13 Fantastic log, I wish it were easier to gauge the cut depths from video, but I think I over-estimated the cuts after #8.
Ah, always fun to see the SLABmaster!
“No wildlife was harmed in the making of this video.” Evicted, yes. Harmed? No.
Massive treasure 😁🇨🇦
I was thinking, it looks like the Amazon, and then somebody said it. It is.
It is not a log or a table, it is ART. You could hang it on a wall.
Surprised at how much decent lumber you guys got out of that ugly log.
This should be de-barked before deciding how to cut it. That shows the natural grain at the outer layers. If your machine can do an angulated cut, there will be more useable wood.
Do you ever get pictures of stuff made from the wood you mill for people
Hi Matt, nice walnut. you managed to turn an ugly log into something beautiful. I run a band mill in northeast Wisconsin. I noticed you cut without lubricating your blade. I use water with a little car wash polymer, it has really increased my blade life. what is the reason you do not? keep up the good work. It would be fun to visit sometime.
I use a mix of diesel and bar oil
that's probably 10 or 20 grand of walnut slabs - crazy
36:30 hah tell that luthiers and gunstock makers Matt :P
That must be like a $5,000 log by now.
I think you missed a zero... I've seen 1 slab go for more than $10k, and he has 13+!
@@OldsmobileCutlass1969Vanot worth that yet. Most of the value is added during drying
Naw let's make it $20k 😂😂😂😂 for a piece of wood
Hello Matt!!!!!! How is the remodel coming along???
Epoxy is self leveling 😁🇨🇦
I'm building my second sawmill. I want a electric mill. I have a 10hp 3 phase was wondering what size vfd are you using and do you have any recommendations on brand. I'm building a smaller cut capacity than yours but will be adding hydraulics. Thanks and love the videos. I don’t personally cut many slabs I prefer to cut boards but I really enjoy watching you cut them
26:50 "Trees Are Weird. "
Awesome video hey Matt I bought your plans I tried to push the plans to staples to print bigger pages and they cannot open file. Please advise what I need to do to make this happen... lastly I reached out to you many different ways and you never responded so not sure if you contact stuff is working
@6:26 If nothing else, you've got lots of blocking material on hand.
It's time for a haircut. I would love to see a wood cookie cut
Nah; it’s only been 2 months
Rick needs to find a Nichols lathe if he's going swing big stuff like that..........well, bigger stuff not that big
It's too bad you don't have a dust collection system, to stop 'everything' from being covered in dust !! Less clean-up, too !!
😮😮 cukup besar . Kayu apa ini ? ...
Im from Indonesia
@27:05 Sawing a lot of air here. Great Lake table?
@30:23 It looks like you went to 16 qtr after #8.
Look. It’s become a nurse log while sitting out back.
i own a grove of walnut trees . i cut dowb 2 mediam both were over 100 years old . nice strait trees all have around 14- 20 before the first crouch . if i can get the money for slabs these gys are getting i looking at alot of slabs that should bring top black walnut SLAB PRICIES
Tempted to try to fill the voids with plastic BEFORE slicing. But that wouldn't help Mr Mouse at all, would it?
Nice❤
Do you plan on moving the sawmill away from your garage or do you keep it there for the power? Stay safe.
Power, water, solid surface, and proximity to my shop (camera gear, computer, tools)
@11:08 Plane that out and put some oil on it and it will pop.
Do these guys give you some slabs as payment?
No, a slab or two out of the set is a burden to stack and dry
