sawing oak 1x1's & 1x3's # 426

[@alanm3438]

So.................if a tree has been shot, does that make it "dead wood"? If a dog pees on a tree, does that make it "dog wood"? Do no listen to the "haters". It is your mill and you can do what you want. It is always good to see you!!!!

[@markgalicic7788]

thanks Alan , yes very true about the haters.

[@timmaggard8862]

I really enjoy watching you and T.H.E. Eddie Horvath cutting logs. I am retired/disabled so I can spend endless hours watching you guys cut! Thanks guys!

[@markgalicic7788]

thanks Tim glad you like it!

[@michelejohnson6805]

I think you guys do a great job. It's fascinating to watch.

[@Sean-x9z]

That's some beautiful wood it would be furniture not made into sticks nice and clear i miss being around my grandpa's mill's his mills you actually had to turn the log's not have a rotator but that was in the 60's and mid 70's

[@markgalicic7788]

[@kevinbarker4696]

yeah, you need to make sure there are no objects in those logs. I have a pecan tree near my house that I know has a tire iron and a chalk line box that was left in the vee before it grew over then.

[@markgalicic7788]

that's the first time I heard of a chalk box in a tree lol!

Hey guys;I was bingeing out on some of your older videos last weekend,not gonna lie Eddie looked strange without his beard 😂

[@DavidPadusnak]

nice job. now get Ed a big rubber mallet and a log wizzard attachment for a electric chain saw. make him happy.

[@troytreeguy]

Nice product, good way to use those nice short butts and off cuts 👍

[@Ed_in_Md]

Beautiful oak!

[@danrobsonjr247]

I like watching you guys cut logs so I’m gonna give you guys some good advice and it’s coming from experience 4 generations of timber fallers to be exact. Do not buy or use an electric chainsaw they are not as reliable or efficient as a gas chainsaw. If you want a yard saw or landing saw I recommend using a sthil ms 391 it has plenty of power for larger logs and you can swap to a shorter bar for trimming unfinished mill cuts. It’s a saw that my grandfather had for landing saws they served the purpose quite well they where not used much for falling but for bucking and knot bumping they worked perfectly fine and they can be used to fall trees as well and they do that just fine for occasional falling. For a lighter saw I recommend a sthil ms 180 or a size or two larger it’s smaller shorter bar would work fine for trimming unfinished mill cuts. Again this comes from experience. I have tried one time an electric saw and it wasn’t worth a crap no power bound up constantly even with additional oil ran along the bar and a very sharp chain. It went right back to the same shop I bought it from and I got a gas powered saw that works reliably all the time fast cutting no binding plenty of power and no problems. So in my opinion electric saws are junk and not worth a shit .as for my family’s logging experience it’s extensive going back to the 30s my great grandfather fell timber using an axe and a 2 man handsaw and all trees where climbed and toped logs where brought up the American river canyon by steam donkey or across the American river canyon by cable car then sent by rail to Michigan cal lumber mill later my grandfather started falling timber then later partnered up with 4 others and ran their company later he eventually ran his own company H&H timber in Eldorado county California they both then taught my father who later taught me and my cousin. So we know what we are talking about when it comes to good saws and saws that are completely worthless and junk. As far as finding metal we have found lots everything from fence posts to bullets even a t post a cedar grew around gramps went through 6 chains before he got above it and was able to fall the tree. Later he tore the stump apart to see what he hit and it was a t post put in some 30 or 40 years ago. Dad found modern steel arrow heads from hunters and old musket balls from the gold rush days shot into trees and even stone arrowheads from 400 years ago In a 8 foot across Douglas fir and they were right in the center of the tree they had to have been shot into the tree when it was no more than 6 inches across.

[@danielgreaves5331]

Great beard Eddie

[@erkeltree]

That axe works day or night rain or clear and does not run out of gas. Who needs chainsaws.

[@pikepike5404]

I use what I have I don't blame you for the axe

[@FrozenCrapholeDweller]

It always confuses me as to why people insist on complaining about the sh*t they get for free. If they don’t like the camera angles or the “boom”, they should go buy their own damned mill and make their own KZbin channel. In the meantime, shut up and say thanks to those who are doing work. Thanks Mark and Eddie for the great videos. It’s like being back in PA every time I watch y’all.

[@dogit1840]

I will report you for being hostile. if you can't communicate in a reasonable manner maybe you should go somewhere else. grass is green waters wet the sky is blue and people have opinions on KZbin 💥💥

Re "Paul Bunyoning" those logs, I wonder if something like a draw knife might work?? I really enjoy your vids!

[@markgalicic7788]

thanks Ward , yes it would.

[@garybessey2184]

Overall, that looked like a premium set of log. Very clear looking, maybe capable of cutting into some really fine pieces of lumber. Did you really need something that good for 1 x 1's and 1 x 3's for this application ?

[@markgalicic7788]

it was a short log so we kept it out of the firewood pile , it's also hard to make 1x1's with knots.

[@garybessey2184]

@@markgalicic7788 Ahh. So...

[@davidnelson9775]

I’m with Gary on the quality of the log. You say short log? So under 8’? You’ve sawn less quality logs that didn’t have knots per se but did have other defects that poor quality because of it. I guess I don’t know where or how you’re selling the lumber you cut, but there are plenty of custom mills that will cut short logs as you put it. Most wood workers don’t need 8’+ material anyways.

Got Eddie, don't need no chain saw.
