    My kids suffered from seasonal allergies, have you tried raw honey (not the store bought junk) , about a teaspoonful every day from spring and fall honey collections, it needs to be local to you honey. All of the pollen collected by the bees will build Bruno's immune system. It will take a few months but worth it in the long run. Good Luck to you and Bruno

    Such great looking wood grain in the root beer wood. Sure would be nice to have a sniff . Here in Nova Scotia I don’t think we have that kind of tree . Nathan, my hat is off to you. Not many dads would stop what they’re doing to take their child for a rip in the buggy. Great to see. Funny how kids will always remember the time spent doing little things like that.

    I am sure you don’t feel this way but watching your operation is so relaxing. Almost smelled the root beer. Just wondering if you slabbed sassafras in the winter with snow on it would it smell like a root beer float. Or better yet mix the saw dust with snow………… oh never mine. I really enjoy your videos!

    Morning Nathan from sunny Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (for change) I was thinking of building a kiln nothing like the size or professionalsness of yours but one thing i wondered is it better to make sure the kiln is pretty full every time u run it or is it just as good to run it with what ever you can put in it each time? Big love to u Bruno and the family! 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Am guessing cabbage and the rest the cats will love the kiln glad to see your cat man like myself ave 6 right now.

      The squared cants with finished-faces will get torn up with a log turner chain Its a known-problem in the industry. It doesn't matter at all if you are turning against faces that have bark/wane. But it can tear up grade-lumber quickly.

    Hi, Nathan, I love al the crazy places you manage to put your cameras. 😜
    It Very often takes me a minute, to figure out what I'm looking at. 🙃🙃
    Question: How do you deal with your saw dust? (where does it go?)
    Have you considered some kind of vacuum system, to take it directly
    from the saw and dump it outside, out of your way or into a waiting (something)
    to move it where it needs to go?
