    I think you make some of thr best videos and thanks for such a good explanation. What thikness c channel do you use. And what thiknes top min would you aim for

    • @backstromwoodwork566
      @backstromwoodwork566  2 роки тому

      Thanks Tim!! The c-channels are made from 6mm thick steel. My dry slabs are around 70mm in thickness, and typically i end up with 50-55mm in final thickness. Sometimes they may have to be a little thinner if a slab has a really big cup or twist, that’s why proper stickering and storage is so important when milling slabs, gotta do all we can to keep them as flat as possible as they dry or we might not even be able to use them for slab tables. Take care my friend.

      Tack Mats. Jo jag behandlat kanterna också, men eftersom de har lite grövre textur så brukat det räcka med 1 eller max 2 strykningar, annars kan det de plastigt ut då kanterna drar åt sig mer av oljan

    Hello mate can you put fresh cut wood straight into a kiln? Is it essential to air dry the wood first.

    • @backstromwoodwork566
      @backstromwoodwork566  2 роки тому

      Hey Buddy! Yes you can, but it takes a long time and costs a lot of money, and you need to precisely control relative humidity and temperature, which lets you decide the rate of drying. Too fast and the wood can get ruined. Airdrying takes even more time, but is a very safe way to dry wood, as long as its not soaking in the sun for too long. Best is to airdry in a shaded area

    would it not be possible to ad a sander ore two to the wood flaterner when you get it motorized. I mean first flattening it whit the router, then switch to sander and make the machine sand it for you while you drink a coup of coffee.

    Are you not concerned with spreading dutch elm disease during transport and storage?

    • @backstromwoodwork566
      @backstromwoodwork566  2 роки тому

      Yes and and no. The recommendation is to dispose of bark and small branches before the next season (elm beetle that spreads the disease is active from april) that’s why I’m removing all the bark off the elm logs. But on the other hand we dont have any elm at all around here, i get these elm logs from a city located a few hours south of us.
