Hello Lads, like your sawing clips, I am a great fan of yours, viewing how you work and comment what you are doing is very relaxing & entertaining. So, keep on sawing! Greetings from your fan in Austria - Gerhard

Thanks for the heads up about Chuck . I did not know . Gives you a hollow feeling for sure .

Hi Mark, I have found over the years that only two things turn oak blue. Iron and steel. I have found if the tree is growing in ironstone areas that can put blue streaks in the log. I found that. Small nails if there in oak long enough are just rust pockets. I have been watching you since you set up the new mill.

I came across one of these sawmills yesterday for sale near me in central Mo. Edminston Sawmill $25,000 Listed 2 days ago in Prairie Home, MO. Way Out of my price range and way too many moving parts for me to keep track of. My high school auto tech class just finished a chainsaw, procut style, mill for me. The second cut on the mill by one of my students on a cedar log, we hit a big wood screw buried in the log. Keep on Booming!

Been using a Logosol mill up till now but we were getting work from outside from the get go without looking and now word out we can take upto 16ft by 30" more enquiries.

I can only imagine how nice a deck would be if the decking was 2X10 hardwood......:-) As for hitting nails, surely that could do a lot more to the blade than breaking carbide teeth. I sharpened carbide tipped saw blades for a couple of years at a local furniture company, and blades were destroyed when they contacted metal.

Hey Mark. Great sawing video. So glad that the nails did not do major damage to the teeth and to the saw blade. It is odd that the metal detector did not pick up the nails when you checked it.

I had a friend once that picked up a “ pointed butt slab “ about 6 feet long . He let it air dry in his shop , turning it over when it started to curl , and he kept flipping it over until it dried being flat . He made a custom ironing board for it for his wife . He put hinges on the but and screwed it on the wall to fold up when not in use . On the pointed end, he hinged a 2 X 2 leg on it long enough to make it level when folded down . Have you ever thought of saving the butt pieces to sell for ironing board blacks ?
