TimberKing 2020 Sawmill First Cuts (Black Walnut)

Garbear (my dad) just got back from picking up his new TimberKing 2020 sawmill. This is him putting it to use for the first time in SC. The log is from a black walnut tree that Kenny and I cut down earlier this year in Little Mountain, SC.

Nice machine. Is the water in the overhead tank for lubrication or to keep the saw dust down...or both?
Where are you guys located?
Beautiful labs.

The water lubricates the blade as it’s cutting through the wood. We are in Chapin, SC.

Looks like just a tad too much water on the blade to start with. Brand new though... You'll figure it out!. Took me awhile
