This is a great wood project book kzbin.infoUgkxkPIWb22DigCqxmlXerCyUF4HCl6eSU2L . Most of the projects use the pallet simply as a source of reclaimed wood not as a recognizable pallet so even if you didn't have a pallet you could make these projects with any reclaimed (or even new) wood. The instructions are excellent. The style is charming and would work with lots of different decor. There are quite a number of projects that involve tiling of teh wood pieces which is a really cool idea and can produce beautiful pieces when working with aged wood.

[@andrewshaw3547]

Back in 1980 when I was 16 years old I started as an apprentice joiner and in those days you had to start in the mill working on the back of a resaw. We would cut log planks up into sections ready to be machined planed for doors, windows, bar tops etc etc. much of the timber came from all around the world, not so now as cutting down the forests has been greatly reduced and hardwood is not so commonly used. We were cutting some oak one day which had come from Burma and one log was full of large metal fragments. The guy who operated the saw and had worked there many years told me this was common in the oak from Burma. He said it was shrapnel from the fighting in the Second World War.

WWII wasn't "our" war, it wasn't anyone's war -- it was everyone's war. And good thing for the countries who fought against the Axis...the atrocities weren't discovered until the Allies prevailed and entered the extermination camps. All the world was stunned and sick from what was done. And remember, as a whole the German population weren't aware of what was being done...so please don't blame all the people of Germany for the inhumanities of Hitler.

That tree is a warrior of endurance to be revered and now it's sharing us all it's tenacity to overcome in it's little space that it shared with this foreign object. For you all who don't know what "Crackerjacks " It is,.... A tasty 😋 Carmel popcorn w/peanuts in a small box mostly designed for children in America. Inside is a little prize /little toy inside an envelope for kids to discover as they eat the contents. A simple 😊 joy & the discovery of the unknown. The slogan in selling this product " You never know what you're gonna get in a box of Crackerjacks!! " Is the point I'm trying to make here. So please try to enjoy the simpler things in life you all. It's many things we take for granted. The Human curiosity of adventure is such a wonderful experience. Please don't take it so lightly or bash the story. This is just a wonderful 💗😊💖 find of the surprise !!! As for Crackerjacks,..... When ever I would get a box as a child, I would ALWAYS LOOK FOR THE 🥇 PRIZE!!! Right AWAY, and shake the box to allow the little prize envelope to surface to the top. Sometimes even dumping it all into a 🥣 bowl, just to retrieve it!!💖 Lolol. For some here, you know exactly 💯 what I mean. It's a part of my childhood memory I will never forget!! Discovery and learning is partly why we're here on Earth 🌎.

Wow that brings back memories! I was a tree surgeon / forester about 25 years ago. I had the first incarnation of the alaskan mill and was slabbing up an Ash and the wood went purple, I kept on cutting and ended wedging the tree open and found a very similar old gate hanger hidden inside, it wrote the chain off! The only time I found some worse was when I did a tree and kept finding little pieces of metal but pressed on cos the chain was close to knackered. I kept giving it a tickle with the file and kept on...half way through the chain gave up on a huge chunk. I dug out a piece of metal the size of my hand and It had unusual jagged edges. With a smooth curved top. Later that day an old boy who lived nearby said a bomber was coming over Edinburgh, dumped his payload on the hill when he saw the amount of flack coming up from the docks and saw fighters were also up in the area. Low and behold id been digging shrapnel out this old tree! And right enough, the victorian wall were cutting beside had a crude massive repair job on it, where it had been blown apart. Apparently London tree surgeons did come across it quite a bit in the 80s and 90s!

I have worked in a sawmill. If you are sawing a tree and you see that the wood fibers are blue in places, it means that there is metal somewhere in the wood. If it has been there for a long time, of course. 5.45 and 7.62 mm automatic bullets, the chainsaw cuts without much tension, but 12.6 and larger ones have a lot of spark and remain blunt.

Pro Tip. After finishing a cut bring fork lift 3 inches below the next cut. Instead of flipping the entire piece just simply slide it straight across onto the waiting sperating dunnage. The saw dust will fall onto the ground from the bottom side when you transfer the sawn work piece over. My back hurts watching you work harder than you should 😎👍. Nice wood!!

Awesome piece of lumber. I used to work at a retail lumber yard which had a saw mill located just 50:yards away. They had a debarking machine and a rotary saw blade and sold a goodly quantity of rough cut lumber to other businesses in the area. One day while I was loading a truck for a retail delivery, the sawmill let out the most God awful screech and then came to a stop, stalling the large diesel engine which powered it. When the smoke cleared and the suspect log had been disected, they discovered a large single bit axe head completely ingrown into the timber. Best guess was that a hundred years or so back somebody broke for lunch and drove their axe into the side of the tree, well up over their head. After lunch they had forgotten where they left it, and never really looked too hard. Over time, the axe was completely surrounded by wood the axe handle rotting away. What had once been a high grade saw blade was now a rough disc. The axe head hung on the owners wall until he closed down.

[@FactoryFailure]

It's a slavic thing I guess. 😁 Where I come from we do stuff like that too. Building, demolishing, chopping wood etc. with minimum fuss. If you get hurt, you get patched up at home or go to the doctor and you're back at it the next day... As kids, we were running around in flip flops and whatnot while building our houses. Parents just told us to be careful- no one got hurt. We even actively participated with building! 🤷 We were 7-12 years old. Personally I find it annoying and impractical to be clad in protective gear...

Lesson learned - I would not even nail boards without safety goggles now.

[@shepherdsvoice3245]

@@FactoryFailure 😁! As I said, impressive. I was amazed that they made it through the entire tree without incident. I've done some tree work with my now ex husband several years back and know many ppl who are in the timber and logging business and have seen and know of many unfortunate accidents. The logging industry is prevalent where I am. Anyone using a hand saw around here, generally wears safety glasses to protect the eyes from all the flying dust, or from any flying splinters, etc - they wear long pants with chaps on, in case the saw should kick back and whatnot to protect the legs and they wear steel toed boots and a good pair of gloves, also a hard hat and ear muffs or they use ear plugs. Even in a sawmill, the sawyer, who was in a booth/machine wore hard hat, safety glasses, steel toed boots and ear plugs and have even seen logs kick back while they were sawing through them. Most people in my area in the industry use processors and skid steers now and the logs would be taken to a saw mill to be cut. But they still have to don all the safety gear per OSHA safety rules. Because if they happen to show up on scene to do an inspection, they could get shut down or fined. It's just all about ones safety, instated from many years of ppl getting seriously injured or even dying. So, as I said, was just amazed that they were doing the work without any gear at all. My ex was in his dozer out in the woods building a woods road for the loggers, and had a tree branch come through and he wasn't wearing safety glasses and nearly lost his eye. It tore the covering on his eye. He was fortunate that it healed (after going to a Dr.) Without any issues. Thanks for commenting!

There was roughly 1000 logs in total. The wood had been preserved by the cold water since the early 1900s.

I know there's man made lakes in the Rockies where the trees were just left to be drowned when they dammed the rivers. They actually invented special robotic, submersible saws and floats (the water logged trees no longer floated) to cut them from the bottom and float them to the top. The thing about submersing a whole fresh tree under cold, fairly still water for a long period is that a) they don't tend to rot and b) they "dry" without stress (this is the act of drying the sap, not the water). Once they are dry of water as well, they tend to be completely crack free and perfect for all types of wood working.

Your ladder method is interesting. Never seen that before. That's some good looking wood.

[@rebeccaofsunnybrookefarm8469]

It's a rail to keep the saw level. Several people who don't have saw mizers do the rail method.

[@msb3175]

It's called an Alaskan Mill in the western US. I'm curious why they continued with the ladder after they had a full length cut. Usually you can use the newly cut surface as your guide for the next.

[@mousetrap1375]

I didn't get that either. The giant black stains in the log should've been the first hint that there was a bunch of metal in it too

[@jontemple1038]

Doing a fantastic job with limited equipment - a real lesson... Back in the 80s and 90s I used to stay in a French village in the Tarn. The local - long retired - woodman mentioned that years before, probably in the 60s or early 70s he and his father had a contract to cut barrel staves for a vineyard in Bordeaux. The timber was sent down from Northern France and was found to be peppered with shrapnel buried way inside. Expensive as it chipped the big circular saw teeth and dangerous as fragments were liable to fly out during cutting. Obviously a legacy of the First World War..

[@Metallurge]

Used to work at a sawmill in New England. Giant beams from old mill buildings in the 1800s would get reclaimed as the buildings were refitted or demolished. Those trees came from forests all around, and we found musketballs, arrowheads, shotgun pellet, bullets, metals of all sorts. We actually had to remove the metal by hand in order to saw the wood. It was a retrofitted water mill from Vermont, probably early 1900s. It was converted to run on a Cummins Diesel engine from a dump truck. The blade is 4 feet tall with I think 56 teeth or thereabouts. It weighs 75 lbs. if we hit a nail with that blade it took an hour to change those teeth individually one at a time.

Yup, barbed wire, blocks of cement. Farmers many many years ago would pour concrete down into a hollow tree, to prevent it from falling over.

Not really. If you ram a metal rod into one of your bones the bone will also grow around it.
