- I use my cut-off table to turn my sawmill slabs into firewood.

Great idea you have for your sawing set up. Looking forward to see how it all works out for you. Thanks for sharing with us. Fred.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Very nice set up and I love that once the slabs are processed, they do NOT have to be picked up off the ground to take and stack....saving your back!
Exactly. Someone once told me the less you have to handle the wood the better. Eventually I want to build some cages and get some forks for the tractor then I can stack them directly in the cages and move them around to wherever I need them. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Nice job on the cutting table. Keeping up with the slabs helps avoid a big pile that is overwhelming
Thanks for the video
Thanks, and thank you for watching. Hopefully I will have the discipline to cut the slabs as I make them.
Similar setup mine less robust. But I do mine as you said : mill and move slab to sawhorse, then when done the cant, back to horse and cut slab and move/stack to fork-lift-able racks to bring to the barn for winter warmth.
Hoping I will have the discipline to do the same. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Save a lot on the back your firewood 🪵 cutting table . 😊
It really does. I don't like cutting logs on the ground. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Nice place you have there. Cutting table is handy
It is, thanks for watching.
Couldn't some slabs be processed and used as siding to give a log cabin effect?
I think that would be possible. If I were to do that I think I would choose logs with very little taper and cut the slabs 2 or 3 inches thick. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Nice ! Now show me what you do with that mountain of sawdust from the mill 😂
Still trying to figure that out! 😓
@@mylifedeliberately Compost pile?
Great idea there. Do you burn that pine in your fireplace/stove?
Yes, I do. Most everybody in the west burns pine. We don't have as much access to the hardwoods found in the east. The wood you see in the video is birch, cottonwood, and western larch/tamarack. The tamarack is not really a pine but a deciduous tree that loses its needles in the fall and grows new ones in the spring. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Are you still liking your power lift?
I do still love my PowerLift. I have the super charged version and it is really very fast. From what I understand it is as fast as the Woodland Mills lift but with all the accuracy built in. Just hoping to get my PowerFeed soon so I can use the two together. Thanks for watching and commenting!
you need to sharpen your chain
No he doesn't
I actually sharpened it before this session. I am not going to say I do a great job of sharpening but I am always trying to improve. Thanks for watching and commenting!
I concur!
Practice makes perfect. I used to be able to hand file but, arthritis has taken its toll and I use a Dremel or a bench grinder. Keep working at it. I like slab bench.
Thanks for the encouragement and for watching and commenting!
