Welcome back. We are all happy to have you showing and teaching. Our pleasure to help your neighbors, too -- fire was such a bummer for them (and so many others).
Beautiful wood. Can tell you haven't completely recovered from the fire. Who would. I'm glad you are sawing again. Hopefully, it will therapeutic for you. God bless. Saying prayers for you/family, neighbors, and everyone affected by fires.
Glad to see you back. That black oak produced some beautiful timber. Nothing like it in the UK 🇬🇧. Keep well and I am looking forward to seeing your next video.
That's really beautiful lumber from that log. It's good to see you back. It looks like you'll be busy for quite a while. The most important thing is still that you are safe after everything that happened. . Bill
WOWZERS! There's some beautiful lumber in that tree! It will make a fantabulous table when the time arises. Glad to see you've been able to get back to making videos. Our thoughts continue to be with your neighbors while recovering from the disaster!
Glad to see you back and OK. Beautiful black oak, and plenty heavy too! I'm guessing your going to have a lot of jobs milling fire damaged logs. Take care.
Man, it's really good to see you being able to get back at your milling again! I have been thinking of you and your situation ever since. You can appreciate that being here in far eastern part of Canada, we don't get much news of your plight there in Oregon. Addition: When I started to watch this video, some 11 hours ago,.I got called away. So of course I had to come back and finish watching this half log being milled,...what beautiful lumber you made for him! I'm now looking forward to your log felling video. Thanks again for this.
Thank you, Reg. I’m working on another video showing all the work that’s been going on. I hope to finish filming that last of the trees coming down today.
Almost Matt Cremona style milling. That is going to make a fantastic table. Would have liked to see a slab wetted down with water to get a better look at the grain but I would only be window shopping. Hope things are coming together for your neighbor.
That first cut was challenging the limits of your height Jason nearly needed a set of steps. I'm sure you will be busy for some time with all the trees getting cut down on the neighbouring properties in your area good luck on being able to keep up.
California Black oak? You need to turn in your Oregonian card.😁 Good to see you back. I have been contemplating replacing the top on the old family kitchen table and have been wavering between veneer and solid.
You just came across as a recommendation. I watch OTW out of the woods. He just started using a 4 degree blade. He said it is the best blade he’s ever used and wished he’d have switched sooner. Trees that have knots it cuts through like butter. I’m commenting from the burnt trees you were sawing in a different video.
For sure! These trees I’ve lost are huge! Too big for my mill. We need to get you and Gary over like we were talking about. We could end up with a ton of great content! Let’s make a plan!
Thank you! Honestly, I don’t really try to sell my slabs. I have a stock of them and people just seem to come to me when they have a project and ask about what I have. It’s definitely not the main source of income with my mill.
A big thumbs down for the 2 people who gave a thumbs down. This is one of the most honest down to earth guys you can find great work great personality and he would make a great neighbour. 💪😎👍🇨🇦
they replanted a lot of the san bernardino mountains with these in the late 1800s i believe, in about 20-30 years theres gonna be a lot of monster black oak like this out here
@@NorthwestSawyer that makes sense, they dont really have a straight trunk and they branch out like crazy and the grain is super inconsistent. i bet it makes beautiful furnature. all the ones out here get turned into firewood for the most part.
I have read that black oak is inferior to Eastern oaks because it tends to split or dry funny. But it seems a waste because they grow fast, tall, straight, and there are plenty of them. Care to comment on whether they have mass commercial potential?
I’ve read the same. This is my first experience with it. So far it’s dried perfectly flat but I am seeing a lot of checking. We’ll have to see how it turns out.
I'm really curious to see how this one dries out... we never cut black oak because we were told it would warp terribly when drying... now I get to find out if "THEY" knew what they were talking about... seems like most times, they didn't!
@@Mark-dp3zf typically I’d prefer to use a less aggressive blade pitch on oak than I would on pine. The 7 degree is a decent middle-of-the-road blade in either the double-hard or the 747. The 747s do seem to clear the sawdust a bit better.
No one will sit at the head or the tail of the table. Even though chairs will be made for them. Those will be for visitors that will be walking by. You will ask them to join you. And they will sit on the honored positions.
May God continue to keep you safe & protect those around you at this time..
Humble regards are sent from Yorkshire.
Those are mighty pretty boards , especially for the first cuts!
Glad your mill made it and your back at it. Those fires were hell.
Beautiful job, beautiful wood, thank you
Thank you!
Ive never seen Black Oak before, wow how beautiful.
Good to see you back.
Awesome black oak. Thats a comeback.
Thanks, Chuck! Lots of milling coming up. Not the big awesome hardwoods you’ve been up to but I’m making sawdust!😬
So glad to see you back on the mill and very glad to hear that your neighbor is doing better because of the donations...
Thank you!
Welcome back. We are all happy to have you showing and teaching. Our pleasure to help your neighbors, too -- fire was such a bummer for them (and so many others).
Can't wait till spring
Those slabs are awesome.
Awesome POV's 👍👀 cool rewinds lol 👍
Thank you!
Very beautiful wood
Beautiful wood. Can tell you haven't completely recovered from the fire. Who would. I'm glad you are sawing again. Hopefully, it will therapeutic for you. God bless. Saying prayers for you/family, neighbors, and everyone affected by fires.
Thank you, Karen. Stay tuned. I milled my first fire log and it was amazing! The video will be up late tonight or tomorrow morning.
Glad to see you doing good! Thanks for sharing, God bless
Thank you!
Found another cool milling channel !!!
Glad you’re doing well my friend. I hope all continues to go well.God bless, take care!
Thank you!
Glad to see you back. That black oak produced some beautiful timber. Nothing like it in the UK 🇬🇧.
Keep well and I am looking forward to seeing your next video.
Love watching your video. Glad to hear you say more good stuff coming.
Thank you, Randy! Stay tuned!
Beautiful wood.
It was good to get an update regarding your neighbors. Lots of good people in the world.
Take good care.
I’m working on another update. There has been a lot happening over the last two weeks!
Great to see you back sir. Beautiful wood slabs. Lucky boss.
That will make a beautiful ( and massive ) table! Glad to hear all is well!
Thank you!
That's really beautiful lumber from that log. It's good to see you back. It looks like you'll be busy for quite a while. The most important thing is still that you are safe after everything that happened. .

Thank you, Bill. My sawmill will be busy this fall. I plan to mill lumber from the trees I lost to replace the structures I lost.
WOWZERS! There's some beautiful lumber in that tree! It will make a fantabulous table when the time arises.
Glad to see you've been able to get back to making videos. Our thoughts continue to be with your neighbors while recovering from the disaster!
Thank you! The community and really the whole world has stepped up to help out. It’s a pretty great feeling!
Thanks for the video. I always enjoy your content.
Thank you for watching!
Awesome video if for no other reason just to see you’re OK! Thanks for sharing, God Bless y’all ❤️💚💜💙💗
Thank you, Gaston!
Good to see you back!
Thank you!
The guy that split that log with a chainsaw did a hell of a good job.
Beautiful black oak. Nice job of making usable lumber out of difficult log.
Wow - that grain is awesome! Marcus from Chesapeake VA.
Thank you, Marcus!
What gorgeous wood, would love to build stuff with material like that. Thanks for sharing.
So happy to see you back at it milling up lumber!
Glad to see your doing well. I hope things have turned for the good for all of the people around you.
Thank you! Things are looking up fir my neighbors. I’m working on another follow-up video.
Good stuff my friend. See you next time.
Glad to see you back in the saddle.
Glad to see you back and OK. Beautiful black oak, and plenty heavy too! I'm guessing your going to have a lot of jobs milling fire damaged logs. Take care.
Anything to help those in need you are a good friend, husband, father, and person, keep on making great videos very enjoyable to watch.
glad you're back and posted again!
Thank you!
Happy to see the fires didn't get you my friend. Great video
Great to see you back, and doing well.
Thank you!
so glad to see you back! Hope all is well!
SO GLAD TO SEE YOUR BACK!!! we was worried.
Thank you! We’re all doing well.
Ripped in half by hand? What a boss
Some really interesting grain on the first few boards. That battery powered leaf blower does a good job with the sawdust on the milled boards.
Thank you. I’m really happy with that little blower. It works great!
That will make an awesome table for the bbq.
That's just freaking beautiful! It does look a bit heavy...thanks for the post, brother!
Thanks, Gary! Sounds like you and @thebeardedgiant need to come over for a mill party!
@@NorthwestSawyer for sure!.....although I know you just want us to come over move those heavy slabs ....that's cool.😉
🤣🤣🤣
I think you have about 10 tables. Beautiful lumber.
That's some sweet looking lumber
Man, it's really good to see you being able to get back at your milling again!

Thank you, Reg. I’m working on another video showing all the work that’s been going on. I hope to finish filming that last of the trees coming down today.
Glad your back.
Glad to see you back to milling!! That log did not look that big until you got it up on the mill then it looked huge!
Welcome back. Carry on staying safe. (From UK)
Thank you! Cheers!
Hi: So sorry for your neighbor and so relieved that you were spared the oblivion that they got. Best wishes from Manitoba.
Thank you, Lawrence! Things are coming together around here. Maybe better than before!
Glad to see you back at it man!
Thanks, Rob. And thank you for your donation!
I know this is and old video. But it reminds me why I love milling videos. To see the what the tree has been hiding for all the years !
I have a video posting tomorrow that will be log to finished product. It’s a good one. Stay tuned 😉
Looks like a beautiful grain lumber will make a beautiful table but a lot of work to get that table done.
NICE TO SEE BACK
Dude, its great to see a milling video. Better to see your place is still there & your safe, away awesome content as usual, cool logo update!🌲🌲👷♂️💪👍
That is some beautiful wood!
It’s the least we can do for good people who lost everything!
Absolutely incredible grain.
I wondered why I wasn't seeing videos they unsubscribed me. So glad you are back at it, and everybody is ok
Very glad you are safe and sound! You may want to start your hernia fund, after hossing around that black oak! Lol! 😱
I was born with two. I’m probably immune now🤓
YAY some milling! Nice.
Love this video Jason, I have a couple huge spruce logs i need to MS 880 threw, to get on my mill, keep up the excellent work!
Thanks, Craig! I may have an Alaskan mill video coming up next month!
I bet that oak log 1/4 sawed would be awesome 👌
I will definitely make another video when the table comes together.
Almost Matt Cremona style milling. That is going to make a fantastic table. Would have liked to see a slab wetted down with water to get a better look at the grain but I would only be window shopping. Hope things are coming together for your neighbor.
They are, thank you. I’ll be making another update video on them soon.
Kia ora brother, I'm bk. Its been a while for me also. Love and support from us all in NZ!
Thank you!
That first cut was challenging the limits of your height Jason nearly needed a set of steps. I'm sure you will be busy for some time with all the trees getting cut down on the neighbouring properties in your area good luck on being able to keep up.
Thanks, Barry. I was maxed out for sure! I’ll probably have to rip some of my Douglas Fir logs down too. One of them is 40” (101.6 cm)
@@NorthwestSawyer looks like that bigger mill is getting closer LOL.
California Black oak? You need to turn in your Oregonian card.😁
Good to see you back. I have been contemplating replacing the top on the old family kitchen table and have been wavering between veneer and solid.
I’ll mill any wood!🤓
are there any accessories you wish you had on your woodmizer that you didnt opt for? looks like a perfect set up in my opinion.
Thank you! I wish I had the fine-adjustable legs. They’re something I can add. I haven’t, but I need to.
Welcome back we missed you.

Great video. I know a guy that would love to come down with his Stihl 880 with a 60” bar and help out with those monster cuts...
For sure! These trees I’ve lost are huge! Too big for my mill. We need to get you and Gary over like we were talking about. We could end up with a ton of great content! Let’s make a plan!
Welcome back!
Thank you!
Looking forward to the post fire recovery video on burned trees and how much is salvagable.
I have a stack of burned logs ready for my mill!
good work,good vidio.
Want your mill. Want your tractor and digging in the dirt all day seems fun too. haha thanks for spending my money but it will be fun to own a mill!
Love your videos. I was wondering what you sell you slabs for? I have walnut and cherry slabs for sale and have had no luck selling them.
Thank you! Honestly, I don’t really try to sell my slabs. I have a stock of them and people just seem to come to me when they have a project and ask about what I have. It’s definitely not the main source of income with my mill.
A big thumbs down for the 2 people who gave a thumbs down. This is one of the most honest down to earth guys you can find great work great personality and he would make a great neighbour. 💪😎👍🇨🇦
Thanks, Jason. Ya can’t please everyone 😬
You got some nice lumber out of that tree, wet oak is sure heavy.
That’s the truth!
He needs Matt Cremona to show him.lol
Glad to see you back at it! What a massive piece of timber, any idea how old that tree was?
What blade are you using to cut that monster? I'm having trouble with the bigger stuff on my LT35. Gotta go really slow!
I was just using a 7degree double hard.
wow this came out 4 days ago how did i miss it ?
looks real good looked like it about got yur toe lol cheers
Was that a co-worker or the boss in flip flops? He didn't seem inclined to grab a slab end. 👍 Beautiful grain.
Never had the experience of working with black oak. Is it more like red oak or white oak in rot resistance?
That’s a great question. It looks a lot more like red oak but I’m just not that familiar with it either.
WOW
Can you mill those trees that were burnt?
Yes. I’m working on a plan/lumber list fir a new structure to park my camp trailer under. I’ll be milling soon!
Plus it will have left over wood. For benches.
Typically how much would you make per foot on that beast?
welcome back
they replanted a lot of the san bernardino mountains with these in the late 1800s i believe, in about 20-30 years theres gonna be a lot of monster black oak like this out here
They say it’s not great for lumber but I made a really nice workbench out of some and it looks great.
@@NorthwestSawyer that makes sense, they dont really have a straight trunk and they branch out like crazy and the grain is super inconsistent. i bet it makes beautiful furnature. all the ones out here get turned into firewood for the most part.
@@vanhalenman60 when I googled what Black Oak is used for, the answer was firewood 😂

How are the 747 blades working for you.
I’ve actually only used one. It worked well but I need more time with them.
What blade do you prefer for cutting oak and pine? Would you use two different blades or the same blade type for both?
@@Mark-dp3zf typically I’d prefer to use a less aggressive blade pitch on oak than I would on pine. The 7 degree is a decent middle-of-the-road blade in either the double-hard or the 747. The 747s do seem to clear the sawdust a bit better.
Why not move the forks closer?
I ended up doing just that.
No one will sit at the head or the tail of the table. Even though chairs will be made for them. Those will be for visitors that will be walking by. You will ask them to join you. And they will sit on the honored positions.
concrete houses the only way to go #not even wrong
Maybe it's just the camera angle, but a bunch of those cuts looked to be making trapezoidal shaped slabs to me.
It’s probably due to the fact that I have the camera set to super-wide angle.
@@NorthwestSawyer - i figuredit had to be something camera/angle related, and not because you were intentionally cutting wonky boards.
@@lialos I had a fresh blade and it it was cutting nicely.
Don’t know why you don’t put the forktruck nearer
