    I've watched far too many sawmill episodes, by you, Brock, Josh, and others -- considering I don't have a sawmill or a desire to have one. There was something about this one that made it more interesting than many of the others. The problem solving, and the excitement of each reveal were fun. Thanks.

    Hey Tony, I cut a 25" oak with my OS23 a while back. It was a job. I don't have a tractor so I had to turn it by hand. 25" x 10' it was so heavy I bent my peavey. But I got 'er done. It made some beautiful slabs and boards. I put the first cut from both sides back on the mill afterwards to get my 2 slabs. Almost more work than it was worth. You did a good job with that Hickory!

    With your hickory saw dust mix it with water so that it is thick, then form it into bricks and let it dry. They should hold together and you can then use them to smoke meat with. They must be hard packed together so they will hold form.

    Looks like you need the Frontier OS31 working those big logs. I wonder if you can make a picnic table out of that kind of wood. At my mother's we had an all wood picnic table that was made all out of 3in wood, The county was replacing the tables in a park that were well over 30 yrs old at the time, and they even brought it to her house and put it where she wanted it. It was painted forest green and I don't know if it was the paint or the douglas fir it was made of but she had it for 22 years before it gave up the ghost. I was trying to move it with whe tractor and the legs broke off one end, She was in her 80's then and told me to take it to the burn pile. She was past her picnic days she said.

    You are definitely pushing that sawmill to its limits!! Kudos for daring.
    I had the same soft spots in an old dead oak, I think it’s some kind of live bugs in a dormant stage, it definitely need some chemical treatment or it’ll infest everything.

  • @percynolan9404

    It can be frustrating to me when it’s maxed out. I start thinking about buying a larger less manual mill. Then I remember what I use it for and look at the price tags and think, this little mill does a great job doing what it is designed to do, which is 90 percent of what I need it for.

    • @percynolan9404
      @percynolan9404 Рік тому

      I sure do love it when it is dialed in and running good and you have a good log on it. I have the 10 hp and it’s struggles to get a straight board with a hickory log that size unless it’s real green.

    To get more slabs couldnt you have turned the log onto the flat side to cut more slabs opposite the first side?

    You should have used a chain saw to knock the knot off or rotated the log.
