Quartersawing a large white oak: Part 2

Scott and Mike finish milling two halves of a large white oak log from the previous video. Scott shows how he mills the entire log into quartersawn and riftsawn lumber.

Best video on quarter sawing lumber I've seen. Like that you do it with 'ordinary' equipment. Thanks for taking the time to make the video and share your skills.

Thanks easy to understand beautiful wood you got out of that log.

Yes very good video and description. Nice bandsaw too. Looks homemade. I kinda need it!!!

It's actually a Timberking 1220. It's been through a lot of logs and a fire, so it has some character.

Thanks Scott, I enjoy all of your videos . I had no idea of the thought process that goes into getting the most out of a log

Hey Scott nice video. I like the mill too. And the hand controlled cable feed on the mill. Just like ours. We enjoy how well it gives you the feeling of speed you can cut with. Is that a homemade mill? Pretty nice.

Thanks Paul. It's a Timberking 1220 which has been through a fire and otherwise abused by large logs.

This is a great explanation of both the meaning of quarter sawn and rift sawn, and the process and trade-offs when sawing a log.

That’s the TimberKing

[@ScottWunderWunderWoods]

It is the TimberKing. Little beat up and been through the fire, but still cutting.
