A 10 year old log
Sawing a cherry log that was left in the woods for 10 years. All of the sapwood has rotted off. It is very crooked, but there may be something nice hiding in there.

      It’s possible that circular mills cut more square but I doubt it. I can cut some pretty square material. Especially if you compare it to the stuff we use to get from a local circular mill when I was a kid. My brother built his house from band milled lumber.

    A nice time saving feature to have on this mill is the ability to cut a vertical slice without having to turn the lumbar twice. Of course that would be a fairly expensive feature, adding cost to the finished product.

    • @hillsidemill

      A lesser expensive way is to have a chain turner. With it a log can be turned either way. However on big logs it wouldn’t work very well.

It went public a week before Christmas. On Christmas Eve it was getting close to the thousand views a hour. It had really slowed in the spring, but mid summer it took off again. It’s been running 20 to 50 thousand views a month since. ????? The video is worth more than the lumber.

      @hillsidemill Місяць тому

      As a tree grows it builds layers on the outside each year is another layer. Those newest layers are what provides the canopy nutrients, they are lighter colored, these are the sap wood. As you cut deeper towards the center of a tree you are going backwards in time towards the part of the tree that was sap wood when it was young of juvenile. Both of these woods have a different density from the rest of the tree and therefore will shrink differently.
