Cedar or du-du-du- WHITE OAK!!! Who will sell it? A specialty lumber supplier?
Lol😂😮😊
😂😂😂❤❤❤
Get over there and watch the full video! Click the “Related Video” Link derrnnnnit!
Awesome video!! If you are looking for ideas, I'd love to see a useful video on pore size. I's hard to find good, useful information with pictures. We all know the basic woods that are good for food prep but I'd love to be able to identify others that would work. There is also complete disagreement online about other woods that are acceptable. I'm wondering if some of the older ring porous woods would be acceptable as it seems there are larger "gaps" between the larger pores as the tree ages ( I could be very wrong here but it is what I've gathered from my research lol) I've seen some of these woods in person that appear to be "tight" but have been listed as not good for food prep. Anyway, thank you for all the information!! It is appreciated!!
We are constantly looking for ideas for videos. It’s tough when there are “some” interest in certain topics, but not enough to make a video about. At least not as much as you say with “the disagreement about acceptable woods…”. Id like to learn more about that. Is this discussion on reddit or FB? What’s the big hubbub about? Lol thanks for the comment as well.
@@kandjlumber I've seen people talk about Ash for instance, some say it's good, others say it's too porous, same with white oak. Sometimes pieces are clearly too porous but others look like they would be useful within those (and other) species. Not sure if there is enough interest but I find that there really isn't enough good information out there about when a species can be used and when it shouldn't be use for food prep for species that might be "on the fence" lol I find that many UA-camrs are just regurgitating what they have learned from the internet and not necessarily what is actually the truth. I'd love to hear the "opinions" of those that actually mill the raw wood and work with it daily! Thank you for your interest!
No definitive answer. Just a rambling advertisement. Well done, but still.....
Great video and good advice on wood selection. I feel armed with info to make my backyard garden beds. AND you made it VERY entertaining!!
Damn! … 6:00 minutes of blabbing before we get to the answer … White Oak. Thanks.
Morning wood..?
The best wood I found for outdoor projects is concrete.
I ran a gang rip saw to re-saw cedar beams. I regularly hit bullets and nails and occasionally a piece of barb wire. One time I hit a horseshoe which stalled the three phase motor! It also wrecked three of the 5 blades...oops😅 11:33
Yeah if only we had the time to hit every log with a metal detector lol! thanks for the comment once again Gary, always a surprise to see you comment on our vids. Thanks!
Great channel!
We get at least one Logistics Company telemarketing call per day, now they are attacking us from the UA-cam comments section!!! lmao jk brother. I enjoy your channel as well, great insights on the trucking industry btw.
@@kandjlumber Haha, no cold calls here-unless you’re looking to hop in a truck! Open invite to swing by our St. Cloud office anytime. Keep up the great work!
That's a Japanese Yakisoba noodle dish. 😂
What?
Casey used to be cool. A pioneer in fact. But his ego turned him😢
New Hampshire's state tree is the white birch which can be made to look like many other closed grained hardwood species like maple.
That's a great point, I have mentioned in other videos that our local Paper Birch can be easily confused with Maple, so one could match the two together. Thanks for the comment Gary!
This is a good video, I honestly was expecting more pine though, I’ve always heard about it. Oak makes a lot of sense too.
Yeah I wish this video got the reach that our Outdoor Wood Video did. Thanks Donna!
@@kandjlumber Nice video. I wait for your reply about wifi access point.
I get hungry for Breakfast when I am working with Maple, because I can always smell the Maple Syrup. On the other hand when I am working with Oak, I think the Outhouse was always put next to the old Oak Tree because the Oak grows so slowly and when working with a lot of the oak it smells like _ _ it!
That’s funny cuz we recently put some red oak in a microwave for a vid, and I agree, it smells terrible!
White oak is cheaper than cedar!?
In our area... yes..
I’ve got a hankering for some Hickory. No joke I’m actually very interested in the off chance of hickory slab wood as well as scraps of black walnut. I’m almost ready to drive to the south to cut my own hickory then make a beeline for the north. Great video lots of great info!!
Thanks Brother! We have Hickory up north here btw..
@ interesting I had no idea, thanks.
I have never used conditioner on oak personally it takes stain real evenly
Yeah, as I had said in the video, Kendal frequently talks about how Red Oak takes a stain very well. I feel as though it was overkill, better safe than sorry?
Butternut is considered the white walnut.
I have been told that Butternut is closely related to Walnut? I have heard it called "Black Walnut's Pretty Stepsister". Lmao. Always Pre-drill though, Butternut likes to crack under stress.
I know horses have problems with walnut sawdust. Don't ever use it for bedding.
Yup! We sometimes get Horse Trainers/Owners here in our shop and that is a common warning: keep away from animals! Horses have died because of Walnut Sawdust...
My Dad and I built an all white oak fence at their home in Iowa back in 1984. My parents moved several years ago, but I drove past our old house last year in 2024 and the White Oak Fence is still standing as strong, straight, and solidly as it did in 1985! THAT'S 40 YEARS OF DURABILITY! The posts were reclaimed 6"x6" white oak from a 150 yr old barn in NE Iowa, which my Dad had torn down for the owner in 1974. He stored all the lumber for 10 years in an extra single car garage on our property. The fence boards were reclaimed from the same barn and had been used as the exterior barn siding. They were originally at least 16" wide, so my Dad planed the surfaces and ripped each of them down to 5" wide fence boards that were 1.5" thick. As you can imagine, these white oak boards were as hard as concrete, so a nail gun would not work on them. We had to pre-drill micro holes for every nail location in the boards, before we could hand drive in every single stainless steel 3.5" nail. It was a LOT of physical work, but well worth it, considering the fence is still going strong 40 years later!
Thank you for sharing such a heartfelt memory! It’s inspiring to know how your dad’s hard work created something that has lasted all these years. That’s what quality craftsmanship is all about!
Red oak taking stain is an obvious one that I learned about today! LOL Makes total sense considering the pumic I go through filling grain. Hey did I miss that sticker in the mail?
No I might've forgotten about you.. did you end up sending me your address via email? Don't send it here in the comments section. Resend it to kandjlumbercontact@gmail.com and I will get it sent to you again. Sorry about forgetting!!
Broooo! You have a great voice. You HAVE to make more of these for more projects. I don't know much about wood. But this is seriously entertaining. The narration and editing is chefs kiss. Please keep it up! 🙏💯. Boom viewed. Boom approved
If it's BOOM approved ✅ then you know it's a good one!
It all smells like MONEY🎉
Osage Orange.
We try to only burn mixed hardwoods but now and then we get a load of pine and never ever burn bark , started off this season with 11 cords of split , started burning in October and have 8 cords left , those slabs make great railing for fences ..?
I've had people buy them to make siding for deer stands..
Where is your area?
Minnesota!
I like your stache. Subbing for the stache and the wood
Thanks Brother!
informative AND entertaining! Thx! Keep up the great work~
Thanks! I am constantly fending off burn out and re-inventing the way I make videos. Hopefully soon I can find that sweet spot and I truly appreciate the kind words!
Bro too much b roll
Nice stache!
I think it’s getting a little long, I gotta trim it soon. 😂
Its called central heat 😂
We talking about Central Air?
What's the question?
Click the related video link, watch the full video.
@kandjlumber no that is why I am watching shorts
@SullenAcrobat guess you’ll never know…
Iron wood will destroy the blade on a sawmill and a good sharpen chain saw! You have to drills hole to put it on whatever you want it on!
325$ US/ Cord is very expensive my friend
That’s why we suggest the Slabwood bundles. Which is around $75-$100 per cord.
Sort of mind-blowing and always entertaining! Thank you!
Thanks Chris, these type of comments make it worth the work.
I wish you lived near me!
Without giving up too much information I’m currently in the market for black walnut firewood.
This is the most peculiar and interesting comment I have seen on one of our videos so far.
@ he’s on to something. We love watching your videos man thanks for putting out useful quality content. Great job.
It’s always an honor to receive praise from other creators. We hope to do even better in the future..
"No chemicals" doesn't address burning the propane to char the lumber.
What? “No chemicals” means it won’t leech hazardous liquid-based potentially cancer causing chemicals from the wood to your skin/lungs/etc.
Where is your area? Did I miss it? @9:36 … Minnesota.
You got it. Minnesota.
Informative, entertaining and I love the explanation of the value triangle. That would make a great Short!
There is a fine line between Informative and Entertaining, tough to do both. I do have plans to publish that part as a short, Thanks for the heads up AND the Comment!!
Great video! You sure did keep me laughing!❤❤
I should just switch the channel to a full on comedy podcast lol.
A lot of sparks on the tinder , you lucked out SNOW !
Tell me you came over here from the video we just published today about firewood etc.
Very cool, down to earth guy, doing UA-cam, thanks
I realy appreciate the info, a bit too ticktock jump cut editing for me personally but may be geared towards a different audience I suppose.
Appreciate the feedback, appreciate your honesty. It's tough, if I slow it down, ppl get bored and ultimately it gets less views. Perhaps there's a way to do it but I haven't found it yet...
@kandjlumber yeah I get it. The algorithm is a cruel mistress for me. I didn't mind the pace. It was more the jarring cuts but I get it. You got to do what works for you? Either way I appreciate the info
We have twenty acres of eastern red cedar. I use cedar from old barn built 110 years ago for 23 years. Funny about the burning. I found out wood that didn't burn in wood pile never rotted. He is spot on with everything he said.
Hmm interesting...
Here in Romania the best for outdoor is acacia wood (salcam) very hard and natural resistant to rotting
