you have accurately described my life thus far: married, WW2 interest, currently in the smoking meat phase, and I have indeed dabbled in the cutting & trimming of tree carcass! Uncanny!
Its literally in the genes. Once you reach a certain age your want to about those before, then how to survive current, then how to shelter for the future. It has been the same dna for thousands of years that we have a drive to remember, apply, and prepare.
I must have things a bit backwards. Married, chainsawing is still fun, but don't have the wood to do much with it, been getting into the smoked meats, and not been a big fan of the war stuff.
In some parts of the world a man gets to a certain age and really, really, wants a really nice lawn. I'm 41 next month and I remember my dad going through this phase, however I don't have a garden.
People usually cut their legs with chainsaws.....its hard to cut your hands with a two handed saw(yes, I know there are top handle saws that can be used one handed....I've been cutting trees for over 20 years, and that is my observation)
Been watching for 12 years maybe not but first tool I seen this guy use twice in the same month! Oddly calming to enjoy watching your seriously in depth conversation is awesome! Good on you!
@Robert Swaine Nah, that's just bad habits that those professional TH-cam types tend to pick up, I'm sure he can quit any time he wants. Or at least that's what he'll tell us.
I ran a Woodmiser portable mill for years. Several of my client had previously chainsaw milled a log or two. Without exception, after I made the first board, their jaws would drop, and they would say. "We should have just called you to begin with". 😆
Tossed my Alaskan mill after the first season, bought a Woodland Mills HM126 and been loving it ever since, and at $5K delivered to my door it paid for its self after the first project. Handy guy like yourself should be able to just fab one up, its just a horizontal bandsaw on rails. Spanks for reading 😉
Yep multiple videos on YT of people making their own. I've been suffering with an Alaskan for awhile, but given the limited amount of wood I slab, can't really justify a horizontal.
Same here Jeremy, I haven’t paid for lumber or live edge slabs in years….Woodlands’ customer service is top shelf as well. I totes mcgoats recommend getting one.
Two different animals. That's like saying, "I tossed my wheelbarrow and bought a bobcat." The woodland is around 20x the cost and not as portable as the Alaskan. Two different use cases. Or it would be like someone saying, "I tossed my woodland and bought a Lucas/WoodMizer."
Been sick for a week from the Virus of Unknown Origin, and needed something to watch before the thirtieth nap of the week. Thanks AvE. You're doing The Lord's work.
I’m glad to see you come over to the pre-tech era of tool slinging, wood is the original challenge to men making excuses to avoid the cackling of our better halves, just to show them the depth of our love for them and the sacrifice we are willing to make to allow them the time to talk amongst themselves. And so it goes as new tools come along, more sacrificing.
Sounds like you might be starting to get fond of the old rigid carbohydrate foam! Although, there is something about sitting on logs around a nice fire. Maybe there's more of a primeval feel.
I think it’s the comforting in know nobody’s gonna be taking you butt holder out from under you. It ain’t breaking and anyone who move the thing is gonna be putting in some effort.
never realized there's anything more to them other than smashing them to bits and burning them until now. thank you for this, you might be onto something there
I haven't had to split a 3' wide hunk of pine since my late teens but at least then dad bucked 'em up to about a foot and a half long so they'd fit in the woodstove. I think I averaged one broken axehandle a year and now that I'm in my late 40s I think it contributed a lot to the fact I make dad noises when I pick something up off the floor.
Haha your story of progression is awesome. My bro in law just bought a woodmiser from Fort Babine. Been cutting up the oversize that Canfor doesn't want.
Ten minutes. Add ten minutes to the run time for “the natural progression of things” line. Still chuckling, particularly because my brother n law spent all day yesterday smoking cashews, salmon and pretty much anything he wanted to throw at it.
The Canadian Chainsaw Massacre. In which one mildly perturbed former lumberjack turned moose wrangler vents his frustrations with shoddy workmanship against random inanimate objects.
I thuroughly enjoy the bashing on the HB axe (that says not to do it right on the Hickory) with the Wetterlings that also tells you not to do this on page 2 of the little book that comes with it. Also, nice axes!
I have been watching you for a while, maybe years but who's counting. Crystallized sunlight is the most profound thing I think of heard you say in a long time. You have Roots just like I.
You've been doing more with dead tree carcass lately, I like it! Woodworking is something I long to some day be able to do, it’s my dream to have a property and shop.. maybe someday
We have a Logosol chainsaw mill, and that thing works like a hot damn. The planks we get out of it have a tighter tolerance than you get from a professional lumber mill. We pretty much never buy lumber anymore. You just have to be ready to spend the hours milling.
Try cuting parallel to the grain with this type of project, it pulls out long noodle like strands very very quickly compared to cutting into the grain, easier on the saw too. I mean Along the length on the log (look up noodling if you dont get it)! not into (like here or alaska mill), or across like normal firewood/bucking cuts Its Especially useful for these shorter, peices. you can be easily be very accurate at bar length, and accurate enough for a rough cut up to slightly longer than twice what ever bar length you have (make sure you dont have a saftey chain, the tip needs to be doing some cutting if the log is any longer than the bar). Not exactly the same thing, but similiar - with really long logs you can do a version of this, using the bar tip to score along the length of the logs taking out a few inches each pass. Be careful
I know what an angle grinder with a wire wheel sounds like when it eats the cord. Doing some contortions on an old potbelly stove and it was inevitable.
Ever hear the sound your face hole makes when the blasted contraption eats your t shirt? Doing it day in and day out and complacency sets in and pretty soon you’re looking out the garage door whilst cleaning the end of a pipe. Next thing ya know everybody in the shop is looking at you wondering how you made that noise and you have to try to look dignified while you try to unwrap your disfigured shirt from the grinder shaft. And pretend the bleeding wire grooves in your stomach don’t hurt that bad. Who would ever do welding for a living??
I never understood how ppl ruined cords that are attatched to the tool their using. All you have to do is pay attention and stay away from it. Its really not that hard. I been using tools for 20 years and never ruined a cord like that.
I went about it all ass backwards, started out with a smoker when I was 16, chainsaw by the time I was 18 and started reading and watching stuff about WW2 and the Great War at some point after that.
Wow that's some nice wood, definitely don't have that here in northern ontario! With prices of lumber thinking of buying myself a bandsaw mill actually.
To my chainsaw comrade I think you really nailed the evolution of marriage hobbies! Myself, also at the man glitter makin stage. Although I skipped the smoking meats stage, except that one fishing trip with the guys.🤔
My biggest tip for using an electric plane: Get yourself one of those key or badge reels like nurse Rachet and use it on your cord near the wall side. This ensures your cord is always under a little tension and will always auto-magically scoot out of the way when going back and fore. With a circ you're always going on a one way trip an it isn't that annoying, but with a plane your always moving the cord after every stroke.
How many times did you have to sharpen the planer blades while cleaning up that timber? Looked like she chooched along pretty well given that it's not a "trade" class unit.
Hi, have you done any videos on a Milwaukee dual trigger tool? I just got the new M18 bandsaw and it has a dual trigger setup which has to be done in sequence to start the bandsaw.

You need to learn a trick or two from This Old Tony. He'd just peel the sides off those logs with his fingers, like magic. Maybe hit them with a cat.

So I get the chainsaw before smoked meats but after researching WW2? Damn, I’ve been doing this in reverse order the whole time.
Try cuting parallel to the grain with this type of project, it pulls out long noodle like strands very very quickly compared to cutting into the grain, easier on the saw too.
I mean Along the length on the log (look up noodling if you dont get it)! not into (like here or alaska mill), or across like normal firewood/bucking cuts
Its Especially useful for these shorter, peices. you can be easily be very accurate at bar length, and accurate enough for a rough cut up to slightly longer than twice what ever bar length you have (make sure you dont have a saftey chain, the tip needs to be doing some cutting if the log is any longer than the bar).
Not exactly the same thing, but similiar - with really long logs you can do a version of this, using the bar tip to score along the length of the logs taking out a few inches each pass. Be careful
This. Would have been several times faster. Or get a ripping chain if you want to cut across the grain.
now you " mister green homester " , great vid , thanks
Did you discover what noise that hand planer makes when the cord gets sucked up into it? I know I would have if I tried to use it that fast.
