[@williamellis8993]

I'm not a sawyer but I did pass the test and remember the taper even before you asked. We're going to miss ZZ Mark and look forward to his return. I'm glad I had the opportunity to meet him (and all the guys) at the Paul Bunyan show. The stress in that log was obvious from the rooster tail it was generating. Bill

[@markgalicic7788]

you passed the test Bill , it was great to meet you and many other people at the Bunyan show we hope to be back there this fall.

HI MARK that tree must had a fork limb there that's the 1ST log IVE seen w a end that square no wonder it wouldn't roll on that end mark sometimes the ugly logs are ugly on the outside it's lumber and the wood grain on the inside what looks good and a good looking wood grain red oak has a good smell 2 it 😊OMG 3 27 2O23

That third log was a fighter. You made them boards look nice.

[@markgalicic7788]

yes lots of cross grain.

[@samkom33]

i have watchd these videos a few years, and have noticed somthing that most likely is an optical illusion 😁 Those logs seam to grow a LOT from beeing checkd from metal to laying on the saw. 😉

[@oldtireman4665]

How often do you find metal in the logs when you scan them? The overhead camera angle is good. Editing definitely becoming more interesting as a result.

[@samkom33]

@@oldtireman4665 You dont find metal very often,,, but checking can be lifesaving if there is more than say just a 2 inch old nail. Lifaving becouse even if the sawblade teeth dont get destroyd, parts of the metal can fly fast, hitting the persons near the saw!

[@markgalicic7788]

yes for sure.

Hey Mark, ZZ and Eddie, I'd sure like to get a piece of that 3" split you cut at the end. I'll make video to showcase your channel.

[@markgalicic7788]

are you close to us ? Imperial PA.

[@WebfootResinandWoodCreations]

Hi Mark, I'm in Jamestown Tennessee. But I'd like to visit you guys some day. I worked in a sawmill for 16 years through the 80's and 90's. If I could get a cut off from one of the 3" splits. I'll pay Shipping to get it here. I believe its 11". A 11" x11" cut off would be great to turn.

[@firecaptaintom]

ZZ Mark will be smashing atoms??

[@markgalicic7788]

yes he will.

[@rufusbradley4604]

No boom on every log

[@markgalicic7788]

[@jerryjerry7561]

i appreciate the down on the saw camera angle, but if you could move it just slightly to give a slightly off angle , it would be greatly appreciated. i have worked sawing wood my whole life, and the view is a little unnerving.

[@markgalicic7788]

thanks Jerry , the camera is on my laser mount and would have to be rebuilt to move it over.

I've noticed in a couple of videos that the saw blade seems to "wabble" so I'm curious how accurate it is for you. I'm not a lumberyard person but knowing how a big saw works it just seems it would be inaccurate. Just curious, thanks...

[@DanielJohnson-yr1ew]

Shout out to Mr. ZZ

[@michaelbrausch8874]

Marc is there a set RPM for the blade speed?

[@markgalicic7788]

yes we run the saw at 550 rpm.

[@peterwilliams4795]

My Dad used to run a swing saw in his younger days he always said that the blade had to whistle at a certain pitch before he could work it properly it was a V4 Wisconsin running a 60inch blade I always thought it was the most dangerous thing I ever saw

[@markgalicic7788]

wow a 60" blade is very dangerous for sure.

[@richparks1966]

The 3rd thing a Sawyer has to remember after dogs up and taper back, is not to over do the Man Glitter, a little goes a long way. There is a vicious rumor going round that Mark is hoarding Man Glitter in some big Man Glitter Warehouse.

Yessir, DON't hang the saw. At the LEAST the belts start smoking OR the Bus Motor starts cutting flips and trying to get in the doghouse with you! NOT good! I was in the scale house at the crusher and saw a great white cloud arise from one of the cone crushers and figured it tried to swaller a shovel tooth or some manganese scrap. The crew gets to get that out and go put on a set of belts. Those big electric motors don't stop. Hope ZZ has a fine trip and comes back glowing. BLESSINGS, Guys!
