Sawing red oak #58

[@DeanFoster-l2l]

That log is more valuable than the people who make negative comments. Keep up the great work.

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Thanks. I'm super glad you noticed that.

[@davebrock6618]

Love those big nasty logs. Thank you very much.

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Glad you like them!

[@user-bt6hh9yu1n]

Those are the interesting ones. I like the surprise.

[@Hat9757]

I applaud you taking the time to get the maximum amount of useable lumber out of some of those logs. It takes many years to get a hardwood tree to that size and shouldn’t be taken for granted.

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Thanks for the compliment. We appreciate it.

[@richmilito5417]

So, who's taking what for granted?

[@quintinstephens2573]

Kinda laughing at all of us armchair quarterbacks on that big ugly about 1/3rd to halfway through…I wasn’t there and have never run a sawmill in my life, but found myself telling you what to do - hahahaha

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

That's hilarious. Thanks

A huge 👍🏻🆙 from Mebane, NC 🇺🇸🫡‼️

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Thanks, happy 4th of July!!

[@williamellis8993]

I'm always amazed at how quickly you can process those logs, especially the really ugly ones. Bill

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Thanks Bill. Practice makes perfect they say and I've had plenty of that since 97

[@LaserGuy62]

That saw cuts really nice and clean, no deep grooves left in the wood. Nice wood to cut too. Nice Well the first log was nice, the second not so much. lol

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Thanks 👍

[@stevenowell]

Johnny and Bill made really nice mills.

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

That’s for sure

[@lewiemcneely9143]

I bet those were somthing to get out of the woods and REALLY something to saw and try and get something out of. The sawyer got to go home and see if another handfall of hair fell out. He really does good to use the carriage and the turner together. SMOOTH! Blessings! Happy 4th!

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Thanks, Happy 4th to you also

[@lewiemcneely9143]

@@nicholssawmillandmore We're close to the Parkway too. Just a little farther down.

[@doomslayer460]

Beauty! Thanks for such a long video! You must be tired of taking so long to shoot

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

You're welcome.

[@garylarson6386]

I enjoy watching your sawing but this ! time is money

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Thanks. I agree. That's why I really don't care for big aggravating logs.

[@TheWildWestMill]

Just curious Jason. How come you don’t skim your cant before you split it?? I notice sometimes u do and sometimes u don’t or the odd time you will flip it around and take a board right away are you not worried about that pc being thick or thin on one end? Great sawing today

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

When I turn it and take another bd I'm trying for a better grade and I probably should skim more.

[@WoodworkingTop535]

amazing❤❤

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Awesome

[@DannyLongest]

What a big friggin log

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

That's for sure. Bigger and rougher than I like!

[@tomw6162]

What are the last two larger pieces used for at the end of sawing most logs ? Tom from Toronto

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

They were 4x6s that will be used for cribbing between layers of steel pipe.

[@danielgentry6759]

When people sit their ass on a nice oak chair, they don’t realize the work that has gone into making that piece of furniture

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

That's for sure!

[@stevenowell]

I'm not in the loop, I knew they dropped the price, but didn't realize the quota was so tight

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Yes I guess they bought too many for to long.

[@stevenowell]

@@nicholssawmillandmore does most of your 4/4 go to the flooring plants?

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Probably about 50 percent.

[@bigtecch]

4:34 I like it

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Thanks

[@Drtdggr]

Are you guys running an edger or resaw

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Edger

[@stevenowell]

Nice Mill, why are you not cutting ties ?

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Thanks. The tie market has been tough this year only being able to sell 2 loads a month. But we are cutting them right now in our most recent videos. Thanks for watching!

[@MillersStumpsandFirewood712]

Awesome Video,just subcribed.

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Thanks so much. Hope you keep enjoying!

[@Ed_in_Md]

That second log was a BUFF.

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Yep I guess so

[@TerryBastian-j1q]

What is the thickness of the saw blade ?

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

8 gauge. 5 16s wide bits

[@joestone2068]

No money and that log should’ve been firewood.

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Maybe a little money but probably not enough

[@garylarson6386]

unproductive tough sawing log for firewood

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Yep!

[@jaracimrdman9059]

ugly logs maybe don't yield the best lumber, but they make the most interesting videos nothing wrong with sawing round straight logs without major knots and defects, but it gets little bit boring to watch

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

I agree and understand. Thanks

[@mjseifried7507]

that log was not worth cutting.

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Maybe so.

[@alfredocorradini9917]

L'unica immagine interessante risulta il serpente che fuoriesce dal tronco. Animale molto furbo e burlone come il titolare del video...

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Guess I need to watch again. Didn't know about a snake.

[@alfredocorradini9917]

@nicholssawmillandmore 👍😁

[@rosskitchen4949]

No offense, buy thats the worst camera work of all the saw-milling videos I watch, I feel like im getting motion sickness, get a tripod or something. It might look alright on the small screen of a phone, but on my 37 inch inch pc screen, its like a rollercoaster ride.

[@nicholssawmillandmore]

Since you're giving advice I guess my only advice for you since it gives motion sickness is don't watch I guess.
