I loved the knots in the tree, so interesting. I would have liked to known the history of such an ancient tree and why it had to be cut down. Or maybe it fell down.

[@johnlaccohee-joslin4477]

Regardless of where this mill is, i am surprised to see just two people operating it. The other thing that took me by surprise is the different woods they manage to get their hands on. I have a ready library of timeds and so far they have cut up four trees i have never seen or heard of, and they are not in the books. I have to admit that its one of those mills that i would love to visit for a day, they make the job look easy, when one only has to look at the slabs thet take off, they must be a good six to eight inches thick, and goodness knows what length, a good video, well worth watching.

Gorgeous grain! Distinctive, clear, no knots. The Zelkova tree I planted in my yard probably won't make it to two hundred years and have such character. Somebody will cut it down for firewood or to plant something mundane after I've croaked and the property gets sold.

[@artrheinhardt3648]

That "cosmic explosion" would turn into a nice feature of the plank, once filled up with some vividly coloured resin 😉👍

Oh my goodness, the grain of this tree is so beautiful and unusual. Not being familiar with tree growth, I still find myself wondering how these grains were formed. You have a real treasure in this one. Very nice filming, too, I loved the close-ups. Thank you for sharing. God bless.

A long time ago I was a sawmill engineer ,so I always find it fascinating to see the same methods of breaking down large logs in different countries. Where I worked we were cutting logs bigger than that but were almost 1000 years old .The timber was worth an absolute fortune with no price restrictions on it . We ran a twin blade head rig before changing to a 9' band saw. See the band saw here doesn't have cooling water.

Nice medium sized log. Put a strap and trolley on the out-feed side. You will be able to cut the whole slab in one pass. Your throughput will also be much higher since you won't have to mess with the chain saw and the extra back and forth carriage travels to break the slab free from the cant.
