Nice video! After giving them a chance to dry, I'd use them for stickers on dark woods-- red oak, walnut, & cherry. Never had a problem with that. I agree that cutting stickers and blocking are the first cutting jobs for a new sawmill. It is a good use for post oak, which also makes good firewood and tomato stakes, so rejects don't go to waste. I never have enough!

Before I bought my sawmill, I never once dreamed of making stickers. Always cutting boards. It is amazing how my priorities have changed.

Nothing cheap at the box stores! lol You got a nice stack of some great looking planks going Tony! Have a good weekend my friend!

You are right about that. Between the hurricanes and Covid, lumber is being gouged IMO. Hope you are doing well.

Paul, you are the best my friend. We are going to get hot and heavy in milling in just a few weeks.

I agree, I probably wouldn't use them either.

My wife will use them in the garden next year or another project. It is strong wood, but twisted easy.

Great video Tony! That mill sure cuts nicely. I’m with ya on the stickers I probably wouldn’t use them on your premium wood but wouldn’t hesitate to use them on like fence boards or something your not to concerned with having leach marks on. After letting them dry for a bit they may not even make marks? Not sure but I’m sure you all will get some good use from em’ some where! Take care buddy

We are thinking the same way. I am cutting the rest into 6x6 beams to set equipment on. It seems some rot resistant. I cut one stump down 3 years ago. It is still a solid stump.

Thank you !! I have not messed with any gum !!! We don't have much in in my area !!! But looks like some tough wood !!! Would like to see what it could as it dryes !!! Thanks as always , keep it up 😉!!!

Really nice job on this video. Great editing. I don’t have a sawmill (maybe someday) but when you started I thought, “what’s he going to do with black gum?” You answered it. Thanks! -Ed

Thank you so much. The Black Gum was a waste of time, but my wife is using the sticks for odd projects. Nasty wood. Cut Red Maple today. kzread.info/dash/bejne/aaiWksWYYcWempM.html

That was some gnarly bark! I would have cut them into 4x4 dunnage to put stacks of wood on. Just add a sticker on top. I have a stack of cherry stickers 🙄

Cherry wood probably be the best. The best I can hope for is Oak. Not many cherry trees around anymore. Your stickers are worth money 😉

I’m thinking about buying this sawmill, do you really like it? Is it worth the money? Great video. God bless...!

I think I have already outgrown the OS23. The mill has held up well, but I should have went bigger. Every time I turn around, I am having to pass on bigger logs.

I ain't sure what gum wood is. Stickers should be out of the same wood as you cutting. Kind of a pain, but you can make them out of the scraps of the log your cutting. That stuff is kindling for a good fire. Lol. I'm figuring you know this by now. Had to say it though.

It turned out to be Black Gum. We are going to use the as tomato sticks next year in the garden. Black Gun doesn't burn well, so even kindling is out. Just a nasty tree. The bark dust made me get a sinus infection

@@TonysTractorAdventure Oh man. Lol. Good show anyhow. I got a cut infected for milling ash wood. Apparently the poo the borer leaves behind is not good for me.

I don't think I would run the risk of ruining good quality Red Oak or Cherry or Walnut. That'd be upsetting. I wonder if you could use them as stickers after they dried out some?

@TonysTractorAdventure

I may use them in the garden, or as fencing stickers. Not on any quality timber.

Yeah I don't think I'd use them for anything that is good quality or going to be seen. Perfect for structural stuff that it does it matter if there's a few sticker stains here and there. Nice job though all the same, better than the log going to a burn pile or just rotting away. Keep up the good work. I know it's painful to buy them for so much money but they will last you years and they will work out cheaper and cheaper every time you use them. Have a great day my friend
