Nice build there, always a pleasure to pick up a few efficiency tips from your woodworking. With the prices of the long lag bolts I've swapped to using all-thread rod with washers and lock nuts on both ends. You get the added bonus of it not being able to work its way out of the wood.
I like how you extended the bottom out from the legs so it can't get tippy. You have a much beefier build which is good since you're focusing on using it for logs. I'm anxious to hear what you think about it for slabs in comparison to your rack...
I really like the rack due to the fact the wedge shape keeps all the bits at the bottom. Seems as if using the table , some would come back at you when cutting em up.
@@oakiewoodsman Yeah, so for the table to work, you have to keep up. I put slabs from one log on each side and cut. As long as you don't try to stack too many slabs on it at a time, the lip and the other slabs hold them in place and it isn't an issue. My concern with the rack is they look awkward to load and unload. I have back issues so I'm always looking for ways to protect it...
@@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead that makes total sense! Sawmills can certainly be tough on the body. I have milled primarily Pine so my flitches are quite a bit lighter. I need to check yours out. Heading over now!
It looks like it did the job and being able to pick the rounds up without bending over will be a game changer. The big bargain Proyama seemed like it was starting and running well too. Look forward to seeing the log deck in use
I bult one on a wagon running gear 8ft wide and 15 ft long it works very well and it is easy to move to where it is needed, so far the largest log i have had on it was a ash 28 inch in diameter and 10ft long it was on by its self and the deck didnt tip, had to noodle them in thirds to handle them but was so nice not picking them from the ground
I use a m18 saw, (I have several videos on it) I don't use it for felling but most all limbing and round cutting is done with the m18, its light, imo with a 12.0ah battery with an Oregon chain (milwaukee chains are terrible) the saw will out cut its gas counterpart for speed, and definately weight, where I live cutting the trees here, however they make almost no noise so no echo for you in the building, no need for ear pro. Good video, I have some kind of log deck coming this summer to help with my home made saw mill.
Noticed the video and sound equipment came in the mail. Got that professional look now. Senior night for my daughter in softball and it got me as well. Good content, enjoyed the show.
OEC's is nice, but doesn't really scale down well for something like this. I also don't think a typical sub-compact or lower end utility tractor will be able to move it.
So happy you are back to projects vs. product reviews. This is great, I also thought it's a great workbench/table - as you were on the ground drilling/screwing in the bolts/screws using the forks as a 3rd hand. Congratulations (to you & son) on the (pending) graduation!!
Thanks for sharing this Brock! I was planning to get a grapple for my tractor to hold logs while I cut them up, but this table would cost less to build
The proyama reminds me of a sthil saw I have, as soon as it cools off just a little it's like starting it for the first time that day again. Those tables like that will sure save a back. It will also make it easier to work longer with less fatigue.

Howdy Brock! Very nice and functional. Same concept as the slab wood rack you made. As my buddy would say... 'That thing is solid enough elephants could hump on it' lol! Well done - now get to work! 😁 Thanks for sharing 🤠

Congratulations to your son and his high school baseball career. Great family support. Fine young man!

Brock I can see that thing being very handy. I think I'm gonna need to build one now. Great job
I agree. Would be cool for sure to save some labor.
Thanks for the great video Brock! Going to try and build one of these for my new splitter without a lift as well. Have a big pile to cut up soon.

Enjoy your video. Your teaching other people how to use equipment
One Eye Customs has a really neat one too. Worth a watch if nothing else.

I appreciate the wireless mic
That ain't go'in nowhere!!! Great job Brock!

Thank you

I really love to watch them play.
Thanks
One eye customs has a real nice one also , as does Timber&Terra
Thanks for breaking in my saw 🤪

Hi Brock. Nice deck. It would help to add washers to the lag bolts.
Thanks for sharing this Brock!
I was planning to get a grapple for my tractor to hold logs while I cut them up, but this table would cost less to build
I’ve done it with the grapple and you are still picking the stuff up off the ground and you can’t cut the middle part that is half by the grapple
@@RockhillfarmYT all true. My splitter has a log lift on it. But I'll bet this table is faster
That Proyama cut like butter!
Looks good really enjoy your content have a great day from VA
There ya go. Good vid Brock. Use what you got, make the best you can. DIY
Very nice Brock! Another great video!👍🏻
Great video..Really enjoyed watching 👍🙂

Noticed the Proyama is in the video so wanted mention it for the drawing if this is it thanks Doug
The screws are GRK screws, very strong and fast. I don’t use lags anymore after these came out

Timber lock screws have a better shear force similar to using a 1/2” bolt
X bracing for the legs would be a good idea given the likely loading
Thanks for sharing
That is a great idea
very woodman will like proyama pcs68 saw
Morning
Good day 🤠
I thought you had 1 pull chainsaws😅
Nice heavy table. It will save the back not having to bend over picking them up.

Great job. It’s on the to-do list. And the Proyama is in my cart. Wonder if lubing the bolts with something would help installing?
I dip long screws in liquid soap to lubricate them.
@@jimmerrithew453 surprised you didn’t say it must be Dawn 🤣
Isn't that a given?
Of course, Palmolive would be gentle on the hands.
dip the lag bolts in oil/drain oil
