Nice Hickory George

Nice log, George!

Hickory is the hardest species of wood to saw by far We always cut poplar as we are cutting hickory or ash it cleans the blade off and cuts much better not all gummed up

Them are some heavy slabs. I like hickory but it’s is some hard wood. But it’s beautiful stuff. Good job there Sir.

I always cut up hickory flitches for firewood and smoke wood. That’s when we don’t do slabs. Great job.

I noticed that the majority of Sawyers don't trim off the felling cut on a log. Is there a reason for that?? My thought that a straight end on a slab would be desired..

Great video. Where did you get the strap system?

Those sure looked heavy! Good job George! Hope you have a chiropractor friend 🤣

Good morning again. I might’ve been thinking table tops,end tables, coffee tables, etc. instead of stickers. I think it’s too beautiful to be cut up for stickers. God bless you, George.✌️🇨🇦

Those are nice looking mushrooms. Check out Google to see if they’re OK to eat. I would.✌️🇨🇦

Good saw...it would take me awhile to get over the baby blue color 😁🤣 I agree with you on the wood-mizer mufflers! Does every cut have to have the clamp on?

I slabbed through a hard maple once for a friend. We literally watched the core slab curl and bow as I was pushing my mill through it.

Mine has an angle! But not on purpose!

Because this mill is not a Wood-Mizer I not supposed to like it; but I do. VERY impressive.

Cool video George Thanks for sharing this

Thank you George for helping me with that log and featuring my mill on your site. I do think that all the stress in the log had something to do with it being from the top of the tree. All those years swaying back and forth in the wind. There's five logs left from that tree so I'll see how they behave when I saw them.

Interesting mill, thanks George and Randy!

Hey, just FYI, when describing the cant on the mill, it helps to use North, South, East, and West, to describe the sides of the cant (as viewed from the sawmill head end. Just makes it simpler. It’s kind of like when spotting an off road vehicle and telling the driver which way to turn. It gets confusing, so saying turn driver or turn passenger makes it clear from any direction that the spotter is standing. Anyway, nice big log there!

Mushrooms grow in low light areas with moisture OR high humidity. So you need to brighten the garage and get circulation. In my shed I got tired of them so I dug out 6” or so of the topsoil put down some small wire mesh, landscape fabric, then spread 6” of crushed unwashed limestone. On the other one cause of the lawnmower, I put in 4” of crushed unwashed limestone, compacted the heck out of it and wetting it, between compactions then put down fabric and 3” of crushed unwashed limestone and then topped it with bags of mortar with added Portland cement. Then dry compacted the top layer for a bit then wet it gently. Got a semi hard surface that still drained water, but no more mushrooms and added feature the chipmunks moved away..

Shrooms!

Good video George! I was wondering why you were not sure if you could get an 8 inch cant out of that first one...my wondering stopped when you turned it and the ends were sticking a foot into the air. I've never seen mulberry milled before, hint hint.

Good job, looks like you got some nice stuff in the end. You know I use to have two bigs stacks of scrap wood left over and couldn’t give it away. I ended up cutting it up and putting in IBC totes and advertised it as firewood and sold 32 totes in two weeks at $75 a tote go figure 😂😂😂

Anyone here ever heard of a funnel?

Hey man you should have eye protection on running the saw. I have a big red oak that is over 31 inches in diameter growing in my yard.

What are stickers used for

George is crazy with his “perfect”cuts

Great video!

A stack of stickers is a much-underappreciated thing.

Go big or go home 🤣

Great job cutting as normal grain is very nice as u said sanded n polished up nice

Seems like the both of us are always doing big, weird, heavy, shit😂. Good morning, George. Have a great day!

Good video George! When are you going to increase the tension on the drive rope...or does lifting it up add something? 🤣 Do you use inch and a half stickers for everything?

Look like some dudes fing a football

THAT was a beautiful log! Too bad it was so short. Good video

This is one of my favorite videos on extreme log milling. So I thought I would shear with you young guys the other extreme. I am 69 years young and I can produce a 6"x6"x12'-6" long very nice and smooth red pine timber from 60 year old 10"x50' tall red pines that are everywhere in Northern MN. The logs need be peeled and aged 1 to 2 years before milling so they don't twist and warp after milling. kzbin.info/www/bejne/haKal4KalLRor68

I love you two. Evidence of a great marriage! Good luck on all your endeavors.

Try a small floor jack to lift your log. It has a pad that should not sink up into the bark plus it may fit down in your channel iron.

Nice logs George

Good job George. How many logs on this blade?

That's a beauty George! Be careful rolling the log / cant with the toe boards up, that's how we began collapsing the bunk from side to side. We found we have to get that toe board down before we roll'er over.

I love it fellas. Love Nate’s Technique cutting metal! I through my cutter across the yard also ! Precision Cutting Boys!

Enjoy watching this mill. You should make another video of it sometime if you get a chance.

Put some skids under that stuff. One little rock will mess up your day.

Hero to Zero...... All that art work and at the last minute you offset the pith? Well you tried. Some day perhaps.

George I was setting here watching you mill that little ole log and noticed you forgot the toe board, I was trying to warn you but…… I think you just joined the The old man and the saw club… but don’t feel bad we all have done it… other than that good job.

It's big.

You could take the corners off it and make an octagonal light house?😂😂😂😂😂
