I can only imagine how excited and humbled you were to see what God had put inside this tree for you to find. Congratulations.

[@Automedon2]

A man who loves his work is a beautiful thing to see.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

agreed, thanks for watching,

[@davidglaum2538]

Not only is that the most beautiful wood but it has such a wonderful smell when you work it.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Totally agree. Thanks for watching

[@marcusramsauer1519]

I enjoy all of your milling videos. It is never tedious. Please keep producing

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Will do. Thanks for watching

[@guymcelwee334]

Is beautiful wood. Thanks for sharing and letting us watch . Be safe and enjoy.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thanks for watching. Have a great new year

[@grahamallen3941]

That’s going to make your life easier Nathan, not having to keep sending your blades away to be sharpened!. Have fun!!! Graham 🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Yes. No more shipping charges 👍

[@GlennConner]

Probably not many viewers that know where big stone gap va is. Beautiful country. I love working with walnut it always satisfies.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Yeah it’s a small town about 30miles from here. Use to be a lot nicer. Poverty and drugs have taken its toll over there Thanks for watching

[@michaelthayer643]

Thanks for not only taking the time to make your videos,but also for the explanations. Keep up the excellent work.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thanks 👍👍

[@artlandry233]

Looking at that slab makes it easy to understand why you so enjoy saw milling!!!! Just Beautiful!

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

no doubt, feels nothing like work,

[@kevinsullivan6969]

this video never gets old,

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

thanks, agreed,

[@ruraljuror6585]

Gotta respect that old tree. God's artwork.

[@larrylund2682]

I cut gem rock. Cutting wood only once in a while. This is the most beautiful walnut I have ever seen too. This is part of why people cut things open. Ya just never know what is inside. I have said many times, I never met a rock I didn't want to cut. Ok, that isn't all true. Just like wood, the cutter needs to read the material you are fixin to cut. Thanks for sharing this work of natural art. What is that background music. Caught myself singing like a hound dawg along with it.

[@daveswoodshop3642]

Beautifully booked matched ends

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

that log was full of surprises!

[@wayneburchwell1977]

I have watched a lot of saw milling on KZbin and have got to say you are right. This log should go down in history. I would save that off cut for a bowl blank.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Wayne Burchwell thanks! And yes I'm the bowl save! Thanks for watching!

[@Kryton619]

Great looking slabs. Thanks for bringing us along for the cut.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thanks for watching!

[@stlpinstriping7772]

Man, I've been binge watching your videos today. Very much appreciate the detailed information and the "why" behind many of the processes. I love seeing the hidden treasure revealed.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thanks. Appreciate you watching

[@JohnMartinez-sm1sk]

Beautiful tree, great grain patterns

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thanks👍

[@robertevans6481]

O.M.G..........that is some amazing walnut....bet it makes a awesome table....have a great weekend ....

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Robert Evans thanks. Looking forward to a table in 2018 with these slabs.

[@TheRedhawke]

Fantastic slabs, you sir are blessed.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

thank you

[@dmoore3722]

I've never watched any milling and I don't know anything about it, but it's really intriguing and satisfying watching you do what you clearly love to do. It's like watching a kid on Christmas. Thanks for sharing your craft.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thanks D Moore, i use to work with a D Moore a while back, great guy, Thanks for watching,

[@tonyioannoni4951]

It took me 61 years to realize that the most important plant for mankind are trees, we made our houses with it, we made all of our furniture, wheels, tools, weapons, ...I could go on and on for a long time, plus they produce oxygen for us to breathe and money for so many generation of lumberjacks, truckers, artists.....just...AMAZING. And I just love to see people that appreciate them like you and people that comment on the beauty of wood. I was also wondering how much a 9 foot slab of 8/4 normally sell for, and how much these special slabs would go for? Thanks and please continue!

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Those sold for 25$ a bf. Thanks for watching 👍👍

[@brandonbledsoe2650]

great video, i bet woodmizer is proud,

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

thanks

[@michaelmerta8956]

God smiled down on you what an amazing Walnut.

[@johndaugherty2287]

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+John Daugherty yes it is. It was for me today! Thanks for watching!

[@richardrogers5604]

Love your show and your enthusiasm!! What an amazing walnut log!!!

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thanks Rags!

[@kevinsullivan6969]

+no name thanks you. I appreciate your time. Thanks 4 watching

[@calebnewton3261]

I wish there was someone like you near me we get loads of timber like that but no one wants it they just want the straight suff with no branches on it. Love your passion for timber keep the video's coming!

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thanks Caleb, be sure to subscribe if you like this content, I will be busy this fall/winter with a lot of sawmill videos. Thanks for watching, I appreciate your time.

That is absolutely beautiful wood. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful videos with all of us. Great job!!

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

I appreciate that, thanks for watching!

[@Twomidgetsonahorse]

Out in your area or on any old homestead you might find some incredibly tall overgrown pie cherry trees. These , much like the black walnut, are also incredibly beautiful to mill down. Not to take away from that double crotched walnut you did in the video. My brain was on overload with all the possibilities for this wonderfully grained lumber. Keep up the great work

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Twomidgetsonahorse thanks!

[@tubularguynine]

I used to help my gunsmith dad saw, cut, shape, glass scrape & sand black walnut stocks and pistol grips for his customers, and I can still smell the wood just thinking about it. That IS some mighty fine slabs there!

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thanks I appreciate the feedback, thnx for watching,

[@guymcelwee334]

Beautiful wood you cut today. Smile.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+guy mcelwee thanks!

[@James.......]

Holy smokes, nice slabs! I'm happy to see some milling videos again too

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+fartfully thanks! Glad to be back up and running. Thanks James

[@slhasebroock]

Spectacular slabs! Now that's figured walnut! Cremona the Crotch King will be jealous!

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Steve Hasebroock thanks. I was sawing long before Cremona probably even picked up a hammer. He is not taking my throne. Or better yet I will be the king slayer. Lol

[@raymondhodge3979]

Awesome slabs, and a awesome video !! Build yourself something with those slabs, I think you deserve it !! Can't wait to see the next video.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Raymond Hodge thanks! I appreciate the feedback. Will probably do that and hold on to these.

[@SteBros]

That's some nice looking slab... wish I had some bigger hardwoods around here

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

[@beau4687]

Man I wish we had more of this stuff in Australia. They can be found but generally planted on private land. Awesome video, I’m saving up to buy myself a Lucas mill with a slabbed attachment so I can saw my own cos working in a mill I hate watching all that nice wood go out the gates.

[@B7-G2]

Congrats on those slabs!

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Agreed!

[@kengamble8595]

Brian K Shaw Sure is Dobie ! 😊

[@raymondheath7668]

Besides the beautiful grain of wood you cut, I really love the background music you use. We don't get that kind of country music here in the Pacific Northwest

[@Mucram-17]

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thank you

[@johnralston5818]

... i agree with ya... it doesn't get any better than that. Yep, keep some for yourself & family & put the rest up for bids ;)

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

I walk by them everyday, they are air drying about 20 yards from my house, those are special, thanks for watching,

[@zachmeyer2718]

That looks incredible

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thanks, sawing Walnut never gets old

[@MikeM-of2if]

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

[@DanJoy07]

Looks like a very fun day. It's always exciting for me to open up a log and peer at some of God's wonderful handy-work. All of creation speaks out about the Creator. Beautiful wood! Thanks for the nice video!

Just like fisherman with his trophy catch!!!

[@animatronics623]

Good wood!

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Linda Elliott yes it is!

[@Thom4123]

Awesome video those booked match walnut would make a incredible George Nakasima (check spelling) table. Matthew Moore has a incredible video series of the table. Be interesting to see some Osage milled.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Thom spillane thanks. That was the style table I was thinking also. U talking about mmw studio?

[@Thom4123]

Out of the Woods Yes I'm sorry to put in.

[@ilvisionariowood]

Most Def you must keep at least one for yourself. You lay your hand on some Terrific Wood

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thanks. Might keep them all

[@1hot57]

That i/s a beautiful piece of wood. It would make some great gun stocks!

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

[@davidnielsen4490]

Beautiful slabs. I would like to see how the end product looks.

[@jameslemon51]

Very nice croch slab

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thanks 👍

[@Pipsqwak]

Those are some phenomenal slabs! Did you make tables from them? Would love to see some videos of the finished product!

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

actually I sold all of them and kept one, that one will be in a future project,

[@beehappywoodworkingandhone439]

hey FYI. save that top limb you cut off. sell it to wood turners. they love stuff like that. just got a 80 foot 28in dia blackwalnut from the TS that came thru Ga.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+BEE HAPPY Wood Working and honeybees good point! Thanks!

[@garycaisse1845]

nice work i enjoyed listening to you and got some tips on buying a slab i build box joint boxes out of calif. walnut borough love to buy some of your wood but im afraid its way to large for my projects but please keep up the good work and thank you

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thanks Gary, appreciate you watching,

[@ThoenWorks]

Slab is "ridiculously" beautiful. Would love to see what this ends up making.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

I will probably sale a few and keep a couple for a nice table,

[@codybryant8684]

That is by far the most beautiful walnut slabs I have ever seen very happy for you bud that's some big money wood right there. Look forward to seeing the Osage being harvest and milled. That limb you cut off would make a nice bowl keep it up bud always great to see someone so passionate about what they do

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Cody Bryant thanks! Great day of sawing. Osage should make some nice axe handles!

[@codybryant8684]

Out of the Woods that exactly what I was gonna ask if you were gonna do. Maybe some bowls and spoon blanks for the website I know I would want one

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Cody Bryant rive them. Too small to saw

[@codybryant8684]

Out of the Woods can't wait maybe some spoon blanks for the website I would want one for sure

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Cody Bryant 👍👍

[@anthonypoole6901]

Im about to assemble my sawmill here in Tennessee . I think im across the state from ya😂. I got a ton of hickory here . Ill be starting on some shag bark hickory thats been down for over a year now.

[@codyzickler8758]

Great looking Walnut and video progression! Any chance you still have those 2 slabs available?

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

They are still air drying. I walk by them everyday

[@johntaylor1947]

Book ending two of those slabs will make a Georges table top.

[@brenthagen3049]

first class walnut. have you ever cut any english walnut? i just cut some shubert cherry that is almost as brown as walnut. i hope too get at least two bowls from. i look forward to your future videos. never turn down a good hardwood log with crotches.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Brent Hagen never came across any English walnut. Thanks for watching. I appreciate your time and feedback on my videos

[@1rustytree]

That sure is a dandy one!

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+1rustytree thanks! Thanks for watching

[@POBulkhead]

We should all plant black walnuts everywhere we can for our grandchildren.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Thomas Pedersen I say that all the time. Great point 👍

[@dantan-tt3el]

Thomas Pedersen .my father planted 55 trees just a year ago. you think a lot like him.

[@Automedon2]

Yellow Hammer If there's no one to mill them, then they are just timber like any other. I'm sure they'd be happy to sell them if someone made an offer. Not idiots - just guys doing their jobs

[@yellowhammer4747]

Please forgive my idiot comment. Your right!

[@NYNCMIKE]

That would make one hell of a gun stock, looks great

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

yes it would, will probably end up as a table,

[@andilee2177]

Out of the Woods, table & bench (es)?!

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+andi lee yes!

[@sethbanjo]

Great video! Have you ever cut veneer with your mill? keep up the good work.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Thanks. Not yet. Might try one day. Thanks for watching!

[@ignatiusjk]

Love me some black walnut. Just curious what does a log like that go for.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

about 15$ a board foot after I kiln dry,

[@pup734]

What do you think is the best thickness to slab the nice figured wood at? I have to say that is the prettiest figured log I have ever seen

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Larry Downes go for 9/4. Good over all finished thickness is 2in after drying.

[@pup734]

Thank you

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Larry Downes anytime. Thanks for watching!

[@jonybgoode1]

I really enjoy watching your video's...im a big fan of walnut also..i make custom walnut ammo boxes here in chico,ca...a great area for claro walnut...French walnut also....just out of curiosity,if I may ask,what does something like these slabs go for...walnut ,nice walnut always seems to bring a premium,especially with the crotch figure like these slabs have...thanks for any info,etc you feel is appropriate...thanks,jb

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Around 350 or so

[@zachmeyer2718]

What do you use to anchor seal? I've always used wax, but it can get expensive

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

amzn.to/2idrth7 A gallon of this will last a long time,

[@jameslemon51]

If your right it should look very nice on double croch

[@whiteoakroadfarms]

Nice work. What band do you run when sawing your Walnut?

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Jim Medeiros I use the woodmizer 7degree double hard blades Can’t beat them!

[@CharleyWard28]

Nice! What kind of gloves do you use, and how long do they last you?

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+Charley Ward not sure. I'll check. Bought a few dozen years ago of same brand. Get back with you on that.

[@CTSCAPER]

12:09 The walnut log was 'This Big'.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+CTSCAPER 👍

[@practicallyIndependent]

Hey Nate! Beautiful slabs! Amazing. I just had a curious question. Do you plan on planing the slabs before selling them, or do you sell rough? Thanks for sharing. Great video as usual.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+DIY Dillon both. Usually i try to surface one side so people can see what they are buying

[@practicallyIndependent]

Thanks for the reply. How do you surface something so wide?

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+DIY Dillon router sled. Of hand planes. But that takes a while

[@practicallyIndependent]

Thanks again Nate. It will be a while before I need to worry about it, but good to know.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

+DIY Dillon anytime buddy. Glad to help

[@ThoenWorks]

my mill has bobcat envy - ha

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

Every sawmill should come with one! Makes life easier.

[@Schnot]

Mine too! I’ve got a backhoe but that did steer would be much better.
