In this video I am showing one way to get multiple timbers out of one log.

Here I have a good sized cypress log. I needed to cut a 8x8, 4x6 and two 4x4 timbers out of this one log. By centering the juvenile core in the 8x8 then the rest of my timbers are far enough away from the pith that they are not effected by the juvenile core.

Nice work. Love the way those LT70's operate (at least it looks like an older LT70 or LT50 maybe) and getting the FOHC beams along with one 8x8 with the center was good work -- I'm guess you ain't new to this game :D

It's a 2006 LT70. I've cut a couple of boards.

Nice job showing how to get multiple Timbers out of one log and the importance on big cants centering the heart wood. The hardest part of sawing is not the mechanics of sawing but how to saw the log to get your desired lumber specs out of it. Another fine video Jake.

Appreciate the compliment.

Great video, keep up the great work! Between your channel and Out of the Woods, I am definitely developing a healthy itch to dive into sawyering one of these days.

[@customsawyer2526]

It's very rewarding but certainly not easy.

good job Jake,

[@customsawyer2526]

Thanks. I had set it for kids and UA-cam turned off the comments for 30 days so had to change the settings.

thumbs up great show please do never use me for a giveaway

[@firewaterfarmsawmill]

Awesome video, I like the dust collector you got going on.

[@OutoftheWoods0623]

yep I need to install one of those

[@customsawyer2526]

Thanks.

[@DeanHansen4600]

Excellent work. I am getting a saw mill so would like a deeper explanation on how you do that Wi though having to measure each time to make sure the sizes are correct and how do you know what thickness you will cut for the smaller boards on another video. Very impressive.

[@AndrewConway]

Awesome... Please raise the bar on Video quality! 360 Horizontal lines of resolution is not so great, and I want to see all your gear and the back ground in all it's spender... Keep up the great work.

Great stuff.
I can cut a log in half just by looking at it.
I know it is hard to believe me but I saw it with my own two eyes.

[@customsawyer2526]

LOL You Sir are some kind of baddddd

[@louisbrentnell2551]

I’m cutting with an Lt 50 wide. You go through the log way faster than I do. Wondering if I’m babying the machine.

[@customsawyer2526]

More than likely. It could depend on your engine and blade being used.
