Sawmilling A Split Pine WITH A NEW SHIRT!! # 351

[@PineInTheAshMilling]

Good video Dave, thanks for the shout out, that was great. The pine was decent, you end up with some nice boards. I'll let you know when to p/u the truck for next sponsored video, any make you prefer?

[@TheOldManAndTheSaw]

I prefer FREE trucks. Thanks for asking.

[@MsdMakingSawDust]

Good job there Dave with that half of the log…now let’s see what you did or going to do with the other half. Man I new I should have sent you that new truck…😂

[@TheOldManAndTheSaw]

Thanks Steve. There's still time for the truck. BTW......there is no "other half". The half I got was the only half I got.

[@southernadirondackoutdoors]

Was that from one side of a double trunk. I'm surprised it produced nice boards.

[@TheOldManAndTheSaw]

It WAS from a double trunk. I was hoping for better boards but will take what I can.

[@mcsawmill]

The burning question is why did the pine split?

[@TheOldManAndTheSaw]

Wind, rain and emotional issues.

[@mcsawmill]

@@TheOldManAndTheSaw oh right, pine emotions just branch in all directions lol...

[@TheOldManAndTheSaw]

George, the truth is that the other half blew down in a wind storm a few days prior.

Your mill doesn't have the drag back? We went to Woodsman's yesterday and I was noticing how the drag back narrows the throat of the mill.

[@TheOldManAndTheSaw]

No it doesn't. And. Yes it does. I'd LOVE to get the drag back and, maybe someday, I will. I don't know how much you lose in the throat height but I'm guessing it's a lot.
