sawing 2x10 decking and hit nails # 394

[@MrPossumeyes]

Rest in peace, Chuck, and my thoughts are with you, Deb. Be strong. Thanks for the news, guys; haven't visited Iron and Oaks for a couple of episodes, so quite a shock. 😞

[@markgalicic7788]

yes very sad.

[@mikedraper5260]

Hi Mark thank you for the news about Chuck Rogers . My condolences to His wife Debbie.and there kids . I have watched them for years .he used to do all the cutting and deb. did the lifting . they changed it up last year .It makes us all realize our mortality. Stay safe pals .

Hello Lads, like your sawing clips, I am a great fan of yours, viewing how you work and comment what you are doing is very relaxing & entertaining. So, keep on sawing! Greetings from your fan in Austria - Gerhard

[@dannyfoshee6239]

mark i fell asleep while watching your video.the hum of the bus engine and the sawing of the logs is so relaxing and peaceful.and i can always back it up and catch anything i missed.well it is monday 2-27-23 and 73 degrees here in memphis,tn.

[@markgalicic7788]

you can watch it again then take a nap lol!

[@johnbarnes8126]

Hi Mark, I have found over the years that only two things turn oak blue. Iron and steel. I have found if the tree is growing in ironstone areas that can put blue streaks in the log. I found that. Small nails if there in oak long enough are just rust pockets. I have been watching you since you set up the new mill.

[@markgalicic7788]

yes I didn't think there was a nail in it but I was wrong for sure.

[@geraldstahlman7036]

Bus Motor therapy for my mind. Thank you so much!

[@disregardme2]

Mark, just happened on to your channel. Found it's great for reducing stress and anxiety. I joined the army in July 1967 and went through basic training at Harmony Church, Fort Benning Georgia with the greatest bunch of guys from Pennsylvania and Ohio. It's been a long time since then but hope any that made it through Vietnam, Like George from Harrisburg PA. Are still with us. I look forward to everyone of your shows. Hi to Eddie and ZZ.

I came across one of these sawmills yesterday for sale near me in central Mo. Edminston Sawmill $25,000 Listed 2 days ago in Prairie Home, MO. Way Out of my price range and way too many moving parts for me to keep track of. My high school auto tech class just finished a chainsaw, procut style, mill for me. The second cut on the mill by one of my students on a cedar log, we hit a big wood screw buried in the log. Keep on Booming!

[@markgalicic7788]

that's not a bad price for a automatic sawmill if it's in good shape.

[@brianwestveer9532]

I also seen that tribute to Chuck and was totally taken back that he passed, prayers for Deb.

Just subscribed and of course liked. Assembled a Woodland Mills HM130 bandsaw over the weekend for use on the farm and small amateur operation but amazing how much we're picking up from watching you guys. Been using a Logosol mill up till now but we were getting work from outside from the get go without looking and now word out we can take upto 16ft by 30" more enquiries. Guess the price of lumber from the big stores might be the answer. Love milling and wish I'd started sooner. All the best from Wales. Lloyd.

[@cousinitt7915]

Thanks for showing how to change out the teeth! I don’t care what you or I call them, you know the cutting surface! I have a 56 “ blade and it looks like yours but haven’t changed any before! Thanks for your video on them!

Nails are a lot easier than trying to saw dogs. The dogs don't like it and the bits have a tendency to run off from the dogs and the blade and take some rings with them. Happy Week and BLESSINGS!

You got lucky, I usually hit nails right after I change bits.. never fails.

yes we did , that's my kind of luck.

[@taraswertelecki3786]

I can only imagine how nice a deck would be if the decking was 2X10 hardwood......:-) As for hitting nails, surely that could do a lot more to the blade than breaking carbide teeth. I sharpened carbide tipped saw blades for a couple of years at a local furniture company, and blades were destroyed when they contacted metal.

Hey Mark. Great sawing video. So glad that the nails did not do major damage to the teeth and to the saw blade. It is odd that the metal detector did not pick up the nails when you checked it. Is there a way to adjust the detector settings so that it pick up deeper objects? Anyway, nice looking oak planks!

[@markgalicic7788]

thanks Randall, the metal was to deep for it to find.

I've just been watching video 394 and I noticed that there was a big gap between the rolling belt and the roller table was that deliberate or just a mistake?

[@markgalicic7788]

Why does the sawdust shoot off the top of the log occasionally? Saw that a couple of times in this video. Almost sounded like the engine was laboring a little bit when it happened.

[@johnvaluk1401]

Thanks for video Mark. Was wondering if you had changed the inserts yet. Good thing you didn’t I guess. Does different metals cause different stains or is it the minerals in the tree?

[@markgalicic7788]

yes it paid off for waiting to change the bits , iron , steel , ferrous metals will cause stains .

I had a friend once that picked up a “ pointed butt slab “ about 6 feet long . He let it air dry in his shop , turning it over when it started to curl , and he kept flipping it over until it dried being flat . He made a custom ironing board for it for his wife . He put hinges on the but and screwed it on the wall to fold up when not in use . On the pointed end, he hinged a 2 X 2 leg on it long enough to make it level when folded down . Have you ever thought of saving the butt pieces to sell for ironing board blacks ?
