How wonderful you've found treasure in that old log! It's refreshing that folks like you save this lovely wood. If you sell it, or work it yourselves, I'd enjoy seeing the process and finished items. Please ask your buyers to record some of their processes. Well done, and not the least boring! ☺
I love watching craftsmen do their thing. You can tell when someone knows what they are doing. And this guy does. You can learn a lot from watching these guys work. Great video.
I too, waited, to see the inside of 'ugly schtick', but, I tell you what. It was good to hear you 2 chit chatting and having some fun. I love to hear couples enjoyin each others company, especially while working. Ya did good!
The quilted maple or flame which that piece had costs a fortune also spalted timbers have a huge up-charge when they are sold to guitar builders. When they are polished and lacquered the grain pattern 'pops' and looks amazing. Just a guitar neck blank can cost $350 if it is figured. Flame is the most beautiful when finished:)
I love wood! Seeing what it looks like under the rough exterior. The grain, the knots and gnarls. It's like refinishing old furniture, when you get the black varnish stripped, it's always a surprise what's under it.
It’s good to see real people working together having fun and just remember happy wife happy like keep up the great work love your show Paul Australia Australia 🇦🇺
You know,I wonder after reading those snide comments why anyone could be so uncouth as to belittle a pair of young people who are at least trying! You two just keep on doing what you are doing.
This video is excellent! Charley and Sarah, with or without the theme of a quaint and peaceful everyday joint interest, it will lull you into a state of desire that everyone longs to have in a relationship! You can just feel it, as it reminds you of one of your own past relationships, or just a fleeting desire to obtain! Thank you for sharing a glimpse into your life! Stephen Church
I enjoyed watching too. Some have called "boring" I say relaxed,not in a hurry,sweet cooperation between two people in love.Very pleasant indeed. Sure beats all those Epic Fails and Try not to laugh videos!
I saw kingfishcutting.I saw maple tree cutting.I eat kingfish and also maple syrup.I enjoyed giggles and backpainy work.It reminded of my mother in childhood riping off skin of tree logs through iron knife make a pile bring it home on head from a long distance with sawdust for cooking and hot water bath in rainy season when cooking gas was a luxary of few.Gods grace and moms blessings great thank you to all.
I'm one of the ones who watches this video and relaxes and love the look of the wood and can even smell it. If that's crazy than I'm at the wrong place. Glad I discovered this video. I n these crazy and dangerous times this is what I need and my dogs to rub their bellies while I am at home trying to stay away from the sickness. Thank you for the therapy Charley and Sarah.
That's beautiful work there my friend. People are doing that epoxy resin fill in the knots or in this case the rotten spots. I've got a buddy here in Alabama that has a sawmill, he cuts a lot of azobe wood. Talking about dulling a blade. He's in the biz of sharpening blades also. Highly recommend him for that.
I saw a table in a New York furniture store for $850.00. Said the blue epoxy resin filling was meant to represent Lake George. It was a pretty table, but for $850? Nah!
That young man is very strong! I’d be on the ground if I even tried to lift one of those logs!! Being a 76 yr. old grandma, it would be a bad thing to try. I’m very impressed with his strength...
Fiddle back is a name or curly soft maple used to make violin worked in a log yard for 25 years in the upper Michigan. Lots of birds eye and curly soft
Now I see why my brother in law bought his own sawmill, I saw the patio and covers he built from the logs he collected from the California wild fire areas that allowed wood to be harvested. It looks like a very good way to pass the time and save a whole lot of money and make a few bucks selling wood to craftsman.
Off topic lol but I love how Charley still makes Sarah giggle like a school girl who has a crush on the cute boy and at times the way he looks at her. A great pair for sure! Nice work guys!
Thanks for sharing I enjoy your videos never know what a log holds in side I turned a 150+ year old black walnut from slab off friends family farm found mini ball from civil war in side a bowl I was turning from blank left it inside bowl !
I would be so nervous to upload a video of myself working to Yourube... this guy did a fantastic job! Kudos to him for having the guts to show his work in action! I learned a lot from this video 👍👍 Thank you much
I haven't worked as a wood butcher for several years now. That is some beautiful wood though. We got a lot of our wood in Southern Missouri. Most of the wood we used was cedar we scavenged from the area around Table Rock Lake. That made some very fine pieces. I loved the aroma of the cedar while working it with the various tools .
Wow.. Charlie you sure know your way around that machine. Reminds me of my X with his backhoe. So exciting to see what each cut will bring. Like cutting into a rock with hidden gems inside. No two cuts are the same. You have the best slab cutter I have ever seen. The Cadillac of slab cutters (mill) if you will. Nice work!
I work with two guys who gripe because the guy following them is 10 minutes late almost every day. The guy that flows me just doesn't show up. That means I work 4 extra hours at least.. These guys gripe because they dont want to work 10inutes
A hundred years ago my uncles worked in a sawmill (until they saved enough money to go to Detroit and work in the auto plants). I don’t think the love of wood ever left them.
@@marylynne9104 I suppose you think that we should all just spell words any way that we like. How long do you think it would be before none of us could communicate with another of us? I don't want to live in that world - and really, neither do you.
Craig Corson - it’s OK, I’m another pedant, my bible is “Eats, Shoots and Leaves”. I have to try hard not to spellcheck and punctuate every comment I read, or I’d never get anything else done. 😆
Not quilted, Quilted maple actually has the appearance of quilting pattern. What you have is worth much mores. It's spalted or highly figured maple, worth a considerable amount for furniture and musical instruments.
The wood quality os good except for the rotten parts maybe.it could be nice for a carved/designed wall panel or a solid door...I imagine the smell of fresh wood in a sawmill. When I was a kid I used to gather wood chips from the shop , put it in a big bowl on the table in the living room and spray perfume on it.the mixed smell of wood and perfume was lasting and relaxing...I got hypnotized watching this video i feel relaxed and sleepy now.
As Charlie is cutting the log into slabs my brain was busy thinking about all the wonderful ways to bring out the best wood grain in each slab. One of the things I would do with the pieces that have “holes” in the cut is put a clear appoxie in the holes to fill them & then, if it was going to be a dining room table, build a frame around the entire slab to make it the size that I would want to make it, once it was completely dry, I would then put lacquer on both sides of the table/coffee table & allowed to completely dry. Once that is all done, I would get it readied for the stand before I mounted the top for its first construction to the final product. Once I have made sure that it is completed, I would then either deliver it whole to its new place or dismantle it to be re-assembled at the home. If it isn’t going to be dismantled before moving it, I would consider using silicone where the stand meets the table top so that the stand becomes more stable & less likely to come apart.
I used to work in a very large saw mill / wood products plant. I was a lumber puller after the wood was dried and planed and trimmed. Those 2x 12x 20 ft'ers were hefty. It takes a man to work with lumber. Hardest job I ever had. Short stacker was the worst.
I swear I could smell it while watching this. I grew up with my parents home right next to the old fashioned saw mill that my grandpa ran. I loved knocking down the saw dust pile as a really little kid and as I got older I was the slab girl. I loved that saw mill!
I loved this video. My great grandfather use to make tobacco sticks that hung tobacco on back in the old days. He had a God given ability to put his arms around a tree and pace around it. By this he could tell how many tobacco sticks that tree would yield. He was well known and sought after for that. For those who do not know tobacco sticks were used to tie tobacco on that was harvested from the fields from which was made cigarettes, cigars, snuff, and chewing tobacco. etc.
It's funny but that last partial piece he lifted off to put on the pile looked strangely like it was in the shape of New Hampshire! Turned upside down it would have resembled Vermont I guess! TY for the video. I found it both therapeutic as well as so relaxing I began falling asleep, Nice! [and I agree with those who thought pieces of that log would make very nice table tops!]
Was it just me or did anyone else want to see each slabs grain? Those slabs with the rotten places would look great filled with acrylic. Thanks for the video please show us more of the slabs grain 😎
And kitchen counters with raw edges. If you take out the bad wood and you can fill the cavity with colored epoxy then coat everything with clear epoxy with the raw edge
So fascinating, my dad use to cut slabs with a tractor, belt drive table circular saw. Was always scared around it but fascinated by how it was done. Wood smells good when being cut and all that slab wood to use in Woodstove
This is so interesting! Now, can those boards you have cut be cut thinner? There are some beautiful cuts that would look gorgeous finished, but I would think they need to be cut thinner than you have just cut. I guess it comes down to what purpose the wood is to be used for. Fascinating!!
I know this is old, but I was thinking the same thing. Most of them could probably have been cut in thirds. But you are right it depends on what they will be used for. I can't think of anything that would need to be that thick and heavy though.
You need a gait belt. Lifting those thick slabs hard on your back. Be careful. Sometimes the damage not realized for years later. Take care. Thanks as it was relaxing to watch you work!
It's called spalting your log was just starting to rot I just finished building a small 4 drawer cabinet with some spalted Red Oak . The cabinet came out beautiful, like your Saw mill
I watched it all. Waiting to see what each piece looked like. Living in Calif Im used to termites and thats what that debris looked like to me. I also like rocks and slicing them. Loved that cool machine
Kind of interesting. Thats a real fine machine. I have always liked the many lives of wood. First life is a tree. Second life is an old TV cabinet. Third life as a book shelf being repurposed or like my fish tank stand. But the beauty of the wood lives on.

That's an intelligent question .

@@craigdawson1749 it was a half enquiring mind

This is so interesting! Now, can those boards you have cut be cut thinner? There are some beautiful cuts that would look gorgeous finished, but I would think they need to be cut thinner than you have just cut. I guess it comes down to what purpose the wood is to be used for. Fascinating!!
I know this is old, but I was thinking the same thing. Most of them could probably have been cut in thirds. But you are right it depends on what they will be used for. I can't think of anything that would need to be that thick and heavy though.
I have the same baby monitor. I can hang it from the top of my mid90s cooks Mill. When the kids are asleep, it’s time to mill!
That’s one hell of a saw. To cut without walking at a specific feed rate is key I would suspect. Nice!
You need a gait belt. Lifting those thick slabs hard on your back. Be careful. Sometimes the damage not realized for years later. Take care. Thanks as it was relaxing to watch you work!
