“We’re probably gonna cut that part out” hahaha I’ve heard that before! 😅

How will the drying of the wood over time affect your building? It sounds like it's not kiln dried. I would like to do a project like this but wonder if wood needs time to dry or kiln to dry it in.

Just milled 11 hickory logs for a new client on Monday. I envy your set up down there. I can only see one router in your T&G process!

I was planing some beech that came out of the kiln today. It had a little bit of both ambrosia beetle and powderpost beetle damage. The ambrosia beetle is a farmer living off of the black fungus it carries into the tunnels it excavates. The wood has to be wet enough to grow that food or the beetle starves. So black holes are safe when the wood is dry, Elvis has left the building. "White" holes, holes that have no off color, are the lyctid powderpost beetle. That's the one that can slowly eat you out of house and home and is still happy just slower at indoor wintertime wood dryness. Either a weak tree already has the beetle in it while living, where it leaves the nice color trails like in ambrosia maple, or the few in my beech, or its called Columbian Timber beetle when you see it in poplar. I'm pretty sure when it is just black tunnels with no trails in the wood above and below, the tree was dead. There was no flow up and down to make that flag. That's what your ambrosia holes look like to me, and I think you said the logs were cut and sat. I bet there were trails of bug frass on/in the pile when you sawed them? That's where I think that wood got the ambrosia beetle. The true powderpost in my beech happened in my barn loft when the wood was stacked up there at lower moisture. Which still ends in, then crank the kiln just to be sure :). Love your setup, I'm using a planer and 2 routers under a 6' plywood table. 3 operations you are doing in one pass.

Hey I see you got the blade in your logo spinning the right way! Hehe glad you guys are doing well.

Can you use the hickory sawdust for smoking meat?

I can only dream of doing a timber frame… but there is no way I could ever afford the tools to lay it out lol

Are you using a router to put the tongue and groove into the ends of the flooring?

Beautiful job. Hickory is gorgeous, but you better have some good quality machines if you're gonna be feeding them a steady diet of that stuff! Nice work!

Impressive and respectable to make T&G boards. It sure is a lot of work to setup the moulder with two router bits. I currently just plane boards flat and install them with a butt joint, but I'm going to try hand routing the edges T&G because the T&G is a good vapor barrier and structural detail to link the boards. I install wood with screws through the face, so it's all structural and good as long as you can tolerate the little gap between the boards. One note, I recommend rift and quart sawing lumber, it will install much easier than the wide 8" plain sawn wood, but again, impressive and good job by y'all!

So cool!

That is a lot of hickory!

Absolutely amazing work guys! That is something to be proud of, producing beautiful flooring from a tree that was standing where you’re building. TGTF cool tools episode. I love the custom subscribe reminder. Did you do that yourself? Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us, have great one.

Could you tell me more about the router setup you have on the back of your thicknesser. That could save me so much time.

Love the new intro! So cool! Planning on hickory flooring in my place too. First logs I milled with my mill. It’s been stickered and drying for two years. Man, you’ve got some great toys! Love your mind on how you remove any opportunities to waste time. Great work guys!

I love the new intro! A little SRV influence there. Hickory is, by far, the prettiest flooring. I'm curious to see how the tooling holds up to the hickory.

It is just that easy!

Since you’re in Tennessee now you pronounce it hick-ree. lol. Good video brother.

Dudez got skillz! Love it!

We are building a house in Arkansas soon we are home builders and subcontractors your video is very encouraging to our dream

Gotta build myself a kiln soon…

“If you think timber screws are stronger than pegs… You might wanna check that out”……most polite way on the entire internet of saying “you’re an idiot” 🤣 hahaha I love it!

I can’t believe what you’re doing. I agree with your inspector. You’re crazy but it’s coming together.

Great videos! Where did you get your laser?

It ain't just TN buddy, Indiana (Home of Limestone) is months.LOL Great to see that kind of work! I appreciate it.

Way to go guys, very nice. How many yards of concrete will you be pouring?

Excellent work guys 👍👍

The blade is up. Train right.

Excavation situation! Love it !

No way did J do time

Love The view with the leaves changing to

What a lovely commute! Enjoy it everyday!

man you got it all down pat from soup to nuts. I'm learning a lot

I have a Doug too…my mobile mechanic brother in law Xavier. I let him fix my stuff…so I can stick to what I do best…working with wood!

Wow I never realized that you could do that. Thankyou.

great to see your t&g process. how do you end-match your t&g flooring? sorry to miss the live streaming. catch you next time.

I can hear ya

Morning guys

Can see and hear you

Love what your doing here. This will be a huge time saver for my next build. Only suggestion I have that might save you some time is perhaps a router would expedite your initial Pocket starting place for your blade. Subscribed!

Nice

You guys do a hell of a good job!

Love it!

You have a very nice build site. I’m sure that building will love its new “pad”, lol. Stay well and have a blessed week

This is going to be exciting to follow. I'll be looking forward to seeing all the progress. May I suggest you raise the resolution to 4K so I can see this in all it's glory.

Great work fellas!! Great to see!

Say it ain't so... you'll let Jay move in? Is he house broken! lol , That is going to be an awesome location with a great view.

Don't be waiting on Dozin Doug... Jason can handle that beast!

Hello do you live near Hiawassee river

Great video!!!
