- Part 1 of cutting up a cherry limb. I didn't get a clip of the final lumber dimensions, so that information will be in the Part 2 video, out soon.
Thanks for understanding and enjoy the video!

Alright!
That was a spectacular looking cherry log and as woodworking teacher I appreciate fine woods. If I may make a few suggestions? 1) pressing so much on the throttle could burn out your engine. 2) those loose cables should be tied up and out of the way. 3) you should trim off all the branch ends as close as possible to the trunk. 4) going back and forth during your cut can damage your blade. 5)Your sawdust problem could be due to the sawdust getting wet from the leaking lubrication line and causing a backup or a buildup of oily residue from milling softer woods. P.S. I did watch part 2 as well.
Thank you! Yes, I probably should have those cables pinned up. The instructions did not have that step, but that's not an excuse.
I don't know what you mean about going back and forth. Are you saying up and down the log as it's cutting or the log moving side to side? The log should be secured well enough that it doesn't move, but I do have trouble securing it against the flaking bark.
Yes, the sawdust will get buched up from time to time, but I most often find debris such as bark will block it up much faster than wet sawdust. The purpose of the container is necessary for blade lubrication, and the leak actually drips off hose well before it can make it to the log. If I didn't have that, it could easily stretch and warp the blade and cause uneven cutting across the log.
