    FWIW, the music you choose for your videos is simply wonderful. And the part that few will notice is that you take the effort to make sure that the music is *just the right* level. Not blaring, not wildly fluctuating, not too much or too little when the tools are running...and when your dialogue comes in and out -- the levels are normalized..
    This is just one small thing that makes your videos truly pro-level. As for me, I absolutely know how much work that takes, and I thank you for doing it.
    For another note, your teaching is solid, your information is solid, and I am 100% hooked on watching your channel.
    Thanks for all you do.

    Without going to the expense of purchasing another tool, you can get similar results by attaching a hook and loop backing plate to an angle grinder. I didn't know anyone made them 'till I found one this past summer. Now I use it a lot. I enjoy all your videos and love the music you add to them!

    When I mill a high value log to be slabbed , I use my electric pressure washer and spray both faces. Then take a pic . Now I have a pic of what the wood will look like when surfaced and finished. The pic is available right now to show potential clients. Now all you have to do is dry the wood , mark them per picture # so you can find it easy. No more "show me all of those 300 slices of wood so I can think about it" . You have digital pics to show them that will be a far better representation of the color and figure of the slices . Now the pics do show FLAT boards ,, not what the board may look like after it is dried .You can send out 1000 pics of the boards but you cant show 1000 boards without allot of very low pay work.

      @joek5161 4 роки тому

      I have to second the pictures off the mill. It doesn't take a whole lot of time, and you can just scribble numbers on the end of your slabs which match the default numbering scheme of your camera. Not only does it help you sell it to your customers, but it also saves the sanity when you remember a specific log you cut 2 years ago but can't for remember where it is or if you ended up selling it,

  • @joek5161
    @joek5161 4 роки тому +6

    I would like to offer a second option to quickly clean the surface - and one which might save your lungs a bit (even outside, I hate dealing with that much sanding...). I think it is Triton who makes one right now - but a large hand held power planer. Their planer is about 7" wide. Set your cut pretty shallow and with 3 or 4 passes you can clean up several square feet of the face...in a few minutes you can surface an entire 8' slab. Don't recall the prices, but you can probably pick up 2 or 3 for the same price as the Festool.
    Along the same lines (though a bit more pricey and harder to find is something like the Makita 12" hand plane. They are sold mainly for timber framers - but they do a treat for saw mills too to quickly knock the mineral stains off the wood from the kiln.

    I know this is a 4 yr old vid. but another good option at a great savings ran on AIR...
    Harbor has a "Geared" 6" orbital sander and with 36/40 grit it is a Beast.
    This is not like the standard "Palm Orbitals" this unit is kinda built like a side grinder or angle grinder, low RPM's but Torque'y. and not as much dust kicked up due to it's slower turn.
    and its slow enough you can hold it flat and not gouge or have very bad scratches like holding the festool at an angle.
    Great video.

    So basically a 4 1/2 " angle grinder with a sanding pad & disk. Milwaukee or DeWalt have long-lasting service in their tools also I just picked up a new.Jupiter pneumatic 7 in grinder/sander. I'm kind of partial to air tools.. I made my living using tools. A standard angle grinder will do just fine and the cost is a bunch lower. keep up the great work. !!!!!!

    If you can afford it, or already own one, use a large fan to blow the dust away. I use one whenever I’m working with a table saw or really any saw outside. It seems like this would help your dust management while you’re sanding.

      Out of the Woods it wasn’t as strong as an angle grinder with an aggressive wheel like Kutzall. The RAS works and is great for dust control but takes a lot longer for carving seats in hardwood.

    Great video... nice to see your channel growing. Another thing you can do right off the mill is, after dusting off the slab, use a piece of heavy chalk to give it an inventory number, then wet it and snap a quick picture. You can still read the chalk through the stain, and you can show what it looks like underneath wetted out before it headed into the kiln.

    That's beautiful wood... as a finisher I can see the potential of a properly finished product just by seeing the grain of the wood.

    Well I cut a lot of cootwood in alaska and birch too but the cottonwood was the one that liked to curl or stain. I started doing what an old timer next to me did. He would saw and then take it down to the lake behind us and throw it in for about two or three days. I asked him why and he said that the natural oil in the wood would soak out and then when he dried it, it didn't take as long and it wasn't curled or stained!! Oh if you like that sander, then try the big belt one and you will be amazed at how much leveler and no scratches and stuff. Way further ahead to use the belt instead of circular sander!! Just saying. It is the oil in walnut that makes those stains and it comes to the surface when drying

    Look for a used floor sander! you will save lots of time and have a more consistent job.
    A regular grinder works fine with the proper attachment for paper or a flap disk.
    For tiny stuff I have a rotozip with the cutting/sanding attachment takes from memory 2.5" cutting wheel or same round of paper.
    Other then that drum sanders pretty easy to build.

    @beehappywoodworkingandhone439 6 років тому

    the staining is from the drying process. the faster the moisture is removed the humidity in the kiln goes up just like in bathroom taking a shower. you get vapor buildup on the boards above each each other and then they form droplets that drop back on the board causing the stain. thats why I love my solar kiln to start the drying they heat during the day and allow the boards to cool in the night . it reduces the moisture buildup and reduces warping to. but does extend the drying time some. it does matter if you have a dehumidiferr in the kiln. the moisture builds up so fast and the dehumidifier cant keep up to frmove it fast enough.

  • @maplenut0420
    @maplenut0420 6 років тому

    What is the RPM that the sander is running at? and why are you tipping it and only sanding with just the one edge of the sander instead of keeping it flat and using the whole sanding disc? How well is the hook and loop standing up to use? the way you are holding it tipped to one side and only sanding with the edge of the disc i would imagine the disc wearing out fast on that edge and wearing thru and taking out the hook and loop part that is on the sander? do they have some way of replacing it when it wears out. I make my own discs, sanding pads and sanding discs which i just use on my angle grinders. the hook and loop attachment method is just not practicable tho and wears out in no time so ive resorted to just using spray adhesive but you have to find angle grinders that run at a lower RPM or they just throw the discs, my 7-9" angle grinder with a fresh 36grit sanding disc will remove some serious product, it throws quite the rooster tail of dust

    100% agree with everything you just said! I do this with a normal angle grinder and sending pad, does a perfect job. The longer the strokes are are the better the finish, and I try not to pause the pad on the wood, because it will leave divots on the surface! I just lift away the end of the stroke and back while the tool is moving.
    Great video
    Cheers

      Thanks. Looks like an angle grinder would have been the cheaper route to go here. I will have to try that one day. Thanks for watching

      It's one of Festool's cheapest sanders though certainly more $$ than an angle grinder. If you don't use the dust collection capability it may not make sense. Have you tried putting something like an Oneida Dust Deputy cyclone ahead of your dust extractor? I mounted one on top of my CT-26 (they're made to fit perfectly) and it's effective enough for indoor use with my Festool sanders, routers, jigsaw, and tracksaw. Or possibly use a hand-held power planer? I've cleaned up lots of weathered reclaimed wood that way.

      Szilard Pinter great advise. Normal grinders run at 10000 rpm. I’m sure the one shown runs less than 5000. Definitely going to give it a whirl. ( probably a swirl too)

      A wire cup brush on the angle grinder will do the same thing and never wear out. I just keep a block plane in my pocket and show them how quickly the staining comes off.

    Have you thought about drying your cuts on edge, won't have as much to clean later and dry a little faster naturally.

    • @OutoftheWoods0623
      @OutoftheWoods0623  6 років тому +1

      I am not familiar with that practice, have you had success with it?

      only brought it up because it was pointed out to me by someone in this area that just recently retired and said I was doing it all wrong, I'm trying it on this fresh batch to see how well it works. different wood but same principle he said... I'm drying black cherry atm. finally got to cut some, now waiting on a few parts to bring my woodmizer up to par for the other cuttings I need to do. can't wait to see how this drying works compared to the way I was taught.

    hi great video with usefull advice which is rare these days ! i just wonder if you could jet wash the surface clean it might be worth a try i dont know just a thought

  • @stoneyface65

    Maybe the moisture in the log is stained by the color of the wood and shows on the surface when it seeps out in the kiln. Idk what that is

    Sir, is 8/4 thickness the profitable thickness for slabs? Thank you for your time.

    Them stains happen in part to the tree or log trying to safe it self so just like when a tree gets bad spot and the tree grows around it we have all seen it so same with the slabs the wood try’s to safe the heart of the board where the heart is stronger the stains will show more

    Some people just want everybody to be as sad and mean as they are. Great insight and video! It looks like some sort of water stains. I think it's because of the rate at which the water in the wood comes to the surface to be evaporated off. Are there any on the top slabs in the stacks or just on the lower slabs? I know there can't be so much moisture that it's dripping on the lower pieces.

    • @OutoftheWoods0623
      @OutoftheWoods0623  6 років тому +1

      Is is always on every slab no matter the placement,
