My Stihl 090 mounted in a Granberg Alaskan Mill gets the job done. Chainsaw milling requires some effort, but have a look at the results. These are high dollar slabs that can be used in making furniture that will definitely stand out. I'll be air drying this walnut for several years and then may finish off a piece or two at a time in a kiln when I'm ready to use it. I'll most likely make table tops out of the majority of the wood but will surely use it in other ways as well.
Be sure to check out my other videos milling, making furniture and more.

When I was cutting Oak in germany 16 years ago we found many musket balls on the trees buried deep. we ring counted and found they were from the Napoleonic wars on the banks of the Rhine.
@_ NEGAN _ I read that in Negans voice haha.
That is the coolest thing I have heard of in a long time.
Jafman How is that
Cool history

I'm 70 so I flat run of energy watching you wrestle around all of it! You gota be ONE TOUGH son of a gun. Great work! Great vid!
If you're really 70, prompts to you to watch random youtube vid's on your spare time ha
@@bermuda6877 why would he lie about been old numbnuts
@@karloslowry9043 - He wasn't saying he thought he was lying... he was giving him props for being that old and watching random youtube vids like the youngsters do. So sadly the only "numbnuts" here is you.
You earned every board foot of that walnut lumber young man. We grow some humongous maple in my part of the world and I've milled and hauled out my share from awkward places. The donkey labor is such you have to work in shirt sleeves in 50 degree weather so I know how much energy you're spending.
Well done and good clean-up after. That leads to good word of mouth and future windfalls of fine lumber in the log.
I read this comment with a southern accent, I don't know why.
id love to get my hands on some thick cut curly maple , for gunstocks or sawn into micro lumber 1/4 inch thick for scrollsawn and carved regulator or mantel clocks with swiss movements in them .
You are so hard-working and tenacious! But what a harvest! Good work, and kudos for preserving such beautiful wood!
Please post a video (or two) with the finished products. Walnut is beautiful.
Who's earned every dime you get out of that log !! Big respect for your hard work
About time Stihl offers you a brand new saw after all this free pub.
Ha, I just bought a second 090, I'm more interested in there old stuff than new for milling, with that said....I'd gladly take a ms880, climbing saw, a pole saw, leaf blower, and a handful of other things....but I don't think they are watching!
I just sent the link to this video to Stihl headquarters with a little commentary, (respectable and polite of course) so who knows, maybe they are watching. Great vids by the way. I don't envy the work you put into this, but I do envy all the walnut you got out of it. LOL
Brian Pruitt That was SUPER nice of you to do that!!!
Still barely even offers discounts, let alone something free. Worth every penny though
I thought it was funny to hear him say "my smaller saw" when referring to the ms390 😅 I get that when you're talkin about milling, a 390 is pretty small, but for firewood that's a pretty big saw to me 😅
Huge respect to you for all your hard work, Very Well Done. Thank you also for taking the time to share your content with us. You set a good example of reaping the rewards of hard work, and I believe you could definately teach the younger generation a thing or to about perseverance. Looking forward to seeing what you can do with it all next. All the best from Trev, London UK
YOUR RIGHT TREV, THIS MAN CAN WORK LIKE A CART HORSE, MICK FROM SURREY.
Lord how I wish I was this young again to do this !!!!!!!!!! Great job !
Your parents must be very proud of of you. You have a work ethic that goes on for days! As always you put out great content . You define that old saying. Where there’s a will there’s a way.
If you mean me neglecting working for 2 weeks to cut up a dead tree into boards than, YES! Just kidding, they are, but for reasons outside of my wood collecting. Thanks for watching.
@@thehomesteadcraftsman8975 YOUR PARENTS CAN/SHOULD BE PROUD FOR WHAT EVER YOU DO IN LIFE, THERE'S NOT A DAD ON THIS PLANET THAT WOULDN'T BE PROUD TO HAVE A SON LIKE YOU. I'M 56YRS AND WORKED WITH MY HANDS/BODY/PHYSICAL WORK ALL MY LIFE, SO I KNOW HOW HARD YOUR WORK IS, YOUR A GOOD MAN. >NEVER CHANGE< MICK FROM UK
And people wonder why some of these slabs cost so much. It's amazing the hard work that goes into doing these slabs. Unbelievable.
Now that I watched you mill all this wood, would love to see you turn this into a project. Looked like some really nice table tops there
And people wonder why handmade furniture is so expensive.
Its a good investment. Lol even your grandkids will inherit it and plus some of this handmade add values overtime as antiques.
@@midnightfun1277 Around me solid wood furniture has gone out of style. I see pieces on Craiglist that a few years ago would go for $800-$1000 easy are almost being given away. A whole generation is passing away and nobody wants or has room for their antiques.
@Sam A lot of people see it as a good thing because they can redecorate with new crappy furniture every few years.
Would love a large piece of that lumber to make an epoxy resin table.
After watching umpteen videos of carefully crafted dovetail and mortise and tenon joints taking hours to complete compared to the same precision from power tools and a jig taking seconds it's difficult to avoid the notion "handmade" is an indulgence.
No disputing the craftsman's skill but the final product is in no way better so why pay a premium for it?
When you think about it these people need a good hiding for not investing in better kit to reduce the end user price - self absorbed twats.
you remind me of when I was 20 years old young man ,love to see someone young working hard , you seem to have a good head on your shoulders. Keep up the good work love your videos.
Great Job! Your work will be rewarded. That is some fine lumber
thanks for sharing. I continue to admire your diverse skill and work ethic.
Oh to be young again. Hard work for one man. Nice job, you'll get some good projects out of it, an money if you sell some of those slabxs. WELL DONE!
Great job!! The wood is beautiful!! Thanks for sharing your talent & sharing your knowledge with us.
So glad to see you wore a cartridge respirator. I found out the hard way, years ago, how toxic the dust of black walnut can be, and I was just carving with chisels and sanding it. Great videos. Thanks for sharing.
Very inspiring, thanks for sharing. And cant wait to see some furniture made of these slabs.
You Sir embody the American Spirit! and by that I mean: that is some very valuable wood. Not many would see the value and fewer would work as hard as you did for it. I admire your work ethic, actually your other ethics too. Bravo now take some motrin, you've earned it.
It is amazing what you are able to accomplish by yourself with the right tools and perseverance.Great job man.
Super cool! What a blessing. Looking forward to see the projects from this hall. 👍
Thanks, got some more milling coming soon.
You will do well with those slabs. You earned it for sure. Back in the day Winchester buyers came through southern Il. buying Walnut stumps. Paid up for them too. Some awful good turning stock in that stump.
Enjoyed the series,
Thanks for your time.

My back hurts watching you superman this all by yourself. You are pretty darn strong.
I admire all the hard work you put into getting that out of there! You have some beautiful wood there too.
Started watching your videos a couple weeks ago. I am absolutely addicted. Between homemade home and homestead craftsman you are an absolute inspiration. Keep up the good work. This world needs more people like you in it.
Hard work pays off. I Respect you doing this!
Beautiful. Good for you to help out with the eventual clean up. Powerful young man.
I love watching these videos! Nice to watch you create.
So interesting listening to you explaining what you were doing
Several years ago, I remember a fellow giving away a ginormous pecan tree, to get it out of his yard. There's lots of good wood for the taking, if you're lucky enough to find it.
Your work ethic man, Amazing! You will succeed.
the look on your face when the cord pulled out was priceless. I too am addicted to milling and this video is a great representation that every day milling presents new challenges. Despite the setbacks I can't wait for the hunt of the next tree!! Your videos are awesome, thank you for sharing.
So glad to see you finally got some help in this one! Awesome work 👍
Does my heart good to see a young man work SO HARD to accomplish a worthy goal. Well done,Bud!
Unbelievable work ethic...wow ! Stihl !!! Get this guy some new equipment !!!!!!!!!
The saw I'm using can cost more than a new Stihl MS880, it's a monster. 137cc. Just bought a second one......not that I would turn down an 880. Look up 090's on ebay, you'll see what I mean about price.
thoses 090's are beasts. Best big saw for slabbing
I had one given to me by my brother in law in 1983...he was a faller up in northern BC....I had a 6ft bar on it and it sure was nice.....not a big belly bar like yours but reg bar....I eventually sold it to a man for $150 so he could turn it into a stationary mill.....
Who else thought that pry bar is amazing? Actually the whole thing was very cool. Great that you saved some beautiful wood from becoming firewood.
I LOVE walnut, such a beautiful wood
I am amazed! You work so hard!
Really looking forward to seeing what you make out of it.
That was a great video i'v done milling like this years ago when I was in good shape. Just looking at the wood you got that was worth the effort. You must have been sore.
You are bad ass dude! I bet you make some beautiful furniture!
What a great job. Hope to see what you make of it all.
Tough work!
But now you have some very nice pieces for both tables and other projects.
Looking forward to your next video.
Cool video! Lots of work (and damage), but awesome boards! Thanks for sharing with us!
I admire your patience and very hard work. Very exacting. Kudos! Best wishes to you!
Where do you live put those stump chunks on a lathe got my mouth watering I want to see some turned..lordy so dark, make a round ball same size as a bowling ball sand and polish to a deep lustering shine. Then drill in holes to be come a bowling ball . How cool a blackish wooden bowling ball. Bet there is some one who pay ya good for one . If you are ever in Oregon and need a job look us up . You are a heck of a hard working man, remind me of my son . He does stuff like you. Love seeing the newer gen using up some of the old dead trees. Y'all r making the fossils proud.
Pretty awesome haul; should make up into many beautiful pieces
Great work Miss.
Wow gotta respect the hard work and determination thanks for the vid
great skill and simple joys-just what life is about. thanks.
Amazing work!
Amazing work. Big prize for a big work!
nice save, good work. thanks for sharing.
May God bless and reward you for all of your hard work.
Cant wait to see some projects come out of all this hard work. "ladies?"
Hard work there fella, good on yer, big respect.
Wonderful! Well worth the hard work.
My back is screaming just watching you ! Nice work, great video.
I'm feeling it more in my neck, and left shoulder....I'm taking steps to get the right equipment to do this work safer in the future.
Oh, to be young again! But hard work like that will make an old man out of you in a hurry! Great slabs though! Looking forward to seeing the whole pile!
What doesn't kill ya, ultimately makes you stronger, unless you get injured and then that's a different story.
You are a such hard worker!!
Beautiful pieces of wood!
Thanks for the great video. Awesome amount of work, but amazing wood! I found myself wishing I could have helped you with my tractor.
Lots of great timber, lots of hard work!
Wish I were in your shoes. That looked so fun. Sometimes the ponds looks greener over the fence, but in your case, your pond is very blue with lots of sunshine on it. Cheers and keep up the great work.
Good on you you enjoy the rewards of your hard work.
Appreciated every minute of this video! Your shear dedication to what is clearly a passion for the work you do, it is clear this is not just a job for you!
The One Man Show--working on your own like that is what makes you strong. And a good problem solver. What a beautiful log, thank you for making and sharing this video! I'm slabbing ash this weekend with a much smaller Granberg.
Sell a couple slabs and get yourself a skid steer. Man my back hurts just watching you! That walnut is beautiful!
Wow this is soo fascinating. Best to you and your work!
Great job! Nice wood too!
Great job my friend!
You deserve every success that comes your way, because you certainly work hard enough for it.
Lucky man to be given walnut. Nice job
Big job
You have just one back
Thanks for the video
Cheers from Luxembourg 🇱🇺
wow a lot of work, but what a return, once in a lifetime wood great job.
That's what made me do it...otherwise, who would want to do all this!
Lot of work but some awesome wood for your troubles
Super energy and attack .
I commend you for your stick to it ness 🙂
Reaping a harvest like that makes it all worthwhile! 😌
You earned every inch of that wood , nothing is free !
Stephen Gordon that’s what I tell my wife when she asks why I make her wash the dishes before we get to strokin.
Hi, that was such hard work, I itched to help, ilogical I know, looking forward to seeing what you make with all the wonderful wood
Nice pieces for turning
See you've got a sweet setup, may have to steal a couple of tricks shown here, that cart looks invaluable.
It's so calming watching these videos. But I'm pretty sure the most calming part is knowing I'm not doing all that work. You go guy!
Love to do what your doing. Respect.
Awesome! Digg the slab dolly
You are one hard working dude !
Very hard work! Thank you for taking us along for the fun! I know it takes so much more time to set up and video your work. Thanks again!
Thanks, takes a good amount of time to watch them too.
The Homestead Craftsman , we're pretty spoiled, us viewers.
Awesome job - some really beautiful walnut lumber there. It made you sweat for it though with all the nails. My back is sore just from watching too
Nice job! That was a workout.
Looks like some great slabs for butcher blocks, table tops, bench leafs! etc. The hard work paid off! Almost always does. Mother nature's gym pays a double dividend!
Respect man that was some rewarding hard work
Nice find!
Awesome job. I hope you will share with us the projects you make with this wood.
Great video...thank you.
Power by Armstrong! Good job.
Drooling over the beauty of some of the wood you’ve got there. Definitely worth the time and energy you put into it!
I drool over it and it's mine, so I understand.
Lot of hard work wow
You could just see the sparks fly when you hit that nail. I'm so envious of this though. I wish I had gotten into woodworking earlier in life.
I've watched you for years and this is by far my favorite video.
Thank you very much. It was a big job, glad you enjoyed it.
Very interesting, good job
"Craft" is quite appropriate. This is rad. Nice work. ✔︎
