From Log to Local Church - An Easter Cross

[@jesuschristislord9150]

🔴 Every house must have this CROSS 365 days per years. Not just for eastern front of a church. Thanks bro good job. ALL GLORY TO JESUS CHRIST ✝️ 💪🙏

[@fredstanley5758]

Josh, I truly enjoy your milling and mill house construction videos but I honestly have to say that this is, in my opinion, probably the best video that you’ve created. Not only does it show great craftsmanship but it’s about what it represents, a risen Savior! Thank you for sharing this content because I feel like some would have been hesitant to do so. Landis Legacy Farm and Fall Line Ridge are two of my most favorite sawmilling channels just for these reasons, you both put out great content and you’re both Godly men who are unashamed to share it using this platform that you’ve been blessed with! May God’s blessings continue to be upon you and may He keep you and your family safe! Happy Easter, He Is Risen! 🙏🏻

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

Thanks so much, and Happy Easter! He is risen indeed!

[@genewileyopa]

Amen. We need to stand up for our Lord. Praise God.

[@suenorton873]

Josh, you got a good heart. The cross is beautiful. I hope you and your family have a nice Easter. GOD bless you all, stay safe.

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

Thanks, will do.

[@danielmoore7039]

Looks good brother God bless you an your church God is good all the time no better story than the one behind the cross💪🙏

[@morgansword]

I find working on a cross comforting and some way of saying thank you God for sending your only son for our salvation. I am saying I am sure that you felt it too. I thank you for the service provided to our church of God.

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

Very well said, Thanks

[@charlesdeshler202]

I need to Make a cross for my Church and so I'm watching vids looking for ideas... This is exactly what I would like to build, but I can't find the timbers... I'll come up with something soon tho... Nice vid and good work. To God be the Glory

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

Thanks!

[@larrybourne8430]

Beautiful Cross. I built one also using 4x6 timbers with half lap joint and used it as a back drop for 2020 family Easter pics. Happy Easter to you and He is Risen!

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

Very cool! Happy Easter

[@lucasfamilyfarm5725]

I’ve seen the burnt wood in Japan on temples. They have lasted hundreds of years. I’ve been doing this to all the siding on my house. Happy Easter to you. Cross came out beautiful!! God bless

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

Thanks!

[@genewileyopa]

Inspired me to want to make one. I have a Cedar on my Mill right now. Thank you Josh. Lord Bless you Iowa cares We had a slightly white Easter First one I remember. God cleansed the earth on Easter

[@matthewgardner5173]

That is beautiful and what better time to publish this. Keep up tge good work.

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

Thank you

[@bwillan]

Good old fashioned glue would have worked just as well to secure the joint. Great job on the cross. Even better you did the char treatment (shou sugi ban) to help preserve the portion that will go in the ground.

[@randallgruetzmacher8498]

Looks great

Thanks! Happy Easter

Beautiful

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

Thank you!

[@kevinmencer3782]

As soon as you mentioned charring the wood, I knew where that was going.

[@davidwhalen2924]

If you ever want to go into the cross making business, I think you have proven that you would be up to the task. There are thousands of churches across America, and many would probably appreciate your skills.

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

Thanks man!

[@Rbs35405]

Awesome 😊

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

Thanks!

[@larrykoda9755]

Great job! Do you have the exact measurements...and how deep did you put in the ground?

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

I don't recall what the exact ones are, but I can give you rough ones. The mill track sections are about 6.5'(3.25' bunk to bunk) so that would probably make the horizontal 4' wide, and the vertical 8'ish tall. Horizontal is about 18" down from the top. I think I sunk it about 1.5-2' into the ground. 6"x6" timbers. If I remember, next time I'm by there I'll take some measurements on that. Josh

[@RonWoolley]

What measurements did you do the cross piece.

[@TheSoupdragon1968]

I'm from the UK, and your comment about burning the cross, made me pmsl!!! Hope your not from the south!!!! ,🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

Well, as a matter of fact I'm in Virginia, so I'm south of the "Mason-Dixon".... all the more important to clarify what I was doing.....lol

[@pattylatumetenkeene1258]

Hi Josh did you make the cross for sale?

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

No, this was a "pro bono" project

[@frank6640]

Flaxseed oil for finish????

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

I just used an off the shelf stain/sealer. I would think BLO would work but haven’t tried it for something that’s outside 24/7

[@stanleystone7927]

What stain did you use.

[@LandisLegacyFarm]

I believe it was Valspar - Cedar tint
