When I was a kid my dad called that "rich pine". We would go out in the woods and bring back for starting up the pop belly stove every morning. Love your video's.

I love that you call a pot-belly stove that! Your name for it is also accurate in my family and that’s for certain. 😂

Absolutely beautiful! My choice would be an entry table. That way you could utilize the length of the board. It will be gorgeous no matter what you decide to create!

Wowsa Wes!....I watched this video twice!...I think I will go searching for your older videos when you were doing your kitchen with similar finds...it is amazing how God turns stress and tragedy in all of us, even trees, and turns them into patterns of beauty for you to discover and share. THANK YOU!

I watch videos where they fill those holes and pockets with colored epoxy, and build tables and things, do a final sanding, and pour clear epoxy over the top, and the results are stunning for furniture, somebody would love to get thier hands on these pieces, keep em coming buddy, we love watching.

Thanks for the tip and for watching!

It looks like you've got a beautiful table or counter top there, Wes. Now comes the fun part. Figuring out what to use the firelog for.

GORGEOUS!!! Those are going to make a good addition to your remodel!!

Wes, that was great that you took the time to investigate that long. I'm sure you made a lot of viewers happy, and the slabs should make an interesting table top or whatever. Great video, i miss seeing the "little one" he makes my day when he is in your videos.

Those slabs turned out really nice Wes. My thoughts on what to do with them would be use the full length, and make rustic sofa tables out of them.

Great looking boards. They would make great tables. Thanks for sharing. God Bless.

Like you said it all depends on your neck of the woods on what it's called. In mine we call it "Lighter Pine" The stuff I really like is that crystallized lookin stuff or glassy looking wood.

wow! Those slabs are very unique and so beautiful! So many ideas, I love your idea for a table. It would also look beautiful as a rustic shelf with metal brackets or a floating shelf? Would also make a lovely decorative bench or storage ladder. A beautiful find to brighten up the day.

Very nice choice. Cool Log!

When I was younger hanging around my grandfather we gathered what we called “rich pine” from dead decaying stumps in the forest. These were from trees that had died why still standing. The sap seemed to flow down into the stump. He would use this to start fires but would also soak pieces in water that he used as a cleaner. His version of “pine-sol”.

Live-edge bench / table, splayed wooden legs (staked) and clear epoxy for the hole. That's what I do. I do enjoy watching you mill lumber! Greetings from South Australia.

That is a great cut of wood. Maybe use a red apoxy to give it the appearance of fire 🔥

Very nice! I would make end tables for the bedroom or matching tables for the living room!

thanks for the video. the slabs looked great.

Way cool, Wes! Good job, well done!

Love the milling videos.

Sooooooo glad you cut that log!!! Definitely a beautiful table

Great job Wes those old cat face logs turn out beautiful wood . Their is some hairpin legs you can purchase that attach and make beautiful behind the couch tables .

Well done 👍👍👍. Thank you for sharing, be safe, 🇨🇦

Your videos are so great to watch. Both entertaining and educational.

Beautiful set of end tables for the newly remodeled livingroom.

The idea for a tabletop with blue epoxy was exactly what I was thinking at the time.

Happy weekend guys

I'm thinking a head board for a bed. Great looking stuff!!

Cut each slab thinner and then use the thinner wood as the doors of an end table, or a tall cabinet in the kitchen or dining room. Oo-oo, how about a gun cabinet. They all would be interesting with book matched doors. And the rest of the finish surface lumber of course would come from that same log (you've got plenty other home cut lumber in your stash for framing and shelves).

hello wes it's is randy and i like yours video is cool thanks wes friends randy

Yessir, a beauty. I live in East Texas and cut a whole lot of pine. God can even make a pine tree slab as perty as a black walnut. Nothing is too difficult for him.

A Dining Room Table with Benches on both sides-thanks for the video

I saw a video recently where a guy had a piece of wood with 2 cat eyes in it. He made a cool bird feeder out of it.

That piece from the second cut would be an excellent cutting board!

That’s just asking to be a Lord of the Rings (Eye of Sauron) table! Great video!!!

A metallic burnt orange with some black iron and rivets would look awesome as a live edge piece.. make the “fire” pop.

Good save. Will be interesting to know what you do with it.

really cool

I’d seal that bad boy up and make a nice looking boot bench for the front door. Seat and back matching set

Wowsa wes!... amazing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Hey Wes, if you're gonna fill the holes in the two nice boards I would recommend you use black epoxy. I think any other color would stand out to much. I'm really glad you decided to cut those slabs, they turned out beautiful!!!

@falllineridge

You're the first to suggest black! Sounds like a good color.

You scared me when you first set it up. Glad you changed your mind.

Me too.

h Here at home we call that a "cat face" and it is caused by the spores of fusiform rust (not sure about the spelling). The alternate host is an oak species, you can look it up and you should be able to get a description of the life cycle. Hope this helps.

I think blue epoxy would distract from the 'flames'. I can see a that part cut out, mounted to a wall and having one of those flickering flame light bulbs centered in the cat eye.

Square up the two straighter edges, bond those together leaving the outer live edges as is, and make into a picnic table top.

Amazing, beautiful - so glad you saved that! I can't wait to see what you make out of it!! God is awesome!! ❤🙏❤️

Natural create amazing pattern.

Could you incorporate the pine 🌲 fire 🔥 design in a vertical piece of wood highlighting the vertical burning 🔥 that wood look pretty Wes !! In Warren Co,Mississippi where I live old country folks here call high rosin pine Lighter nite !! :)

11:42 both slabs with epoxy can make an excellent dinning table.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I would put an eye at either end and make a blue river table. 12:39

The only trouble with working with pine as it's so soft at dents easy. And there is so much sap it's almost impossible to finish it always wants to bleed through

We had 3 feet of rain in June and July.

Make something with those logs for around a fireplace or maybe benches by a bon fire pit.

👍👌

Another piece of God's artistry on display, inspired decision for sure! Would love to see what you make out of it. Have you considered installing a small air compressor near your mill? You could use it to blow off the saw dust from your slabs, maybe use it to help clean your mill and air up flat tires that seem to happen at the most inopportune times! Great video share Wes. Thanks, Ed

@falllineridge

Never considered that. Brushing the dust off seems to work pretty good. Thanks for watching!

The figure is nice for sure, but the pitchy sections would be a bugger to finish unless maybe you epoxied the entire slab on a project. I have finished over pitch before and it is futile. I was curious too when you scrapped it. Thanks.

@falllineridge

9 ай бұрын

Good point. Tons of pitch buildup on the sandpaper. Didn't even think of that. Thanks for watching!

An epoxy with some red/orange tones would suit that well

Possibly a table or fire place mantel.

Never know until you try. Stay safe.

Yeah, we got only a little bit of rain here in central Alabama. We surely could have used a whole lot more.

I would have a clear case made for the pine knot and hang it on my wall.❤❤

Some end tables wood be nice wez

Slab the slabs down to .75 and make decorative serving trays. ( Christie's idea)

Pine just not my thing BUT a great video

Make nice end tables

I made a video a few weeks ago cutting a pine log with damage. It’s pretty stuff but I won’t do it again. The pitch build up was extraordinary and caused uneven cuts. Used the 2x4s for my chicken house and it’s rather comical when I look at some of them.

I dumped a ton of soapy water trying to keep the pitch off and it worked well enough. Diesel would probably solve your problems.

@SwampSawyer

@@falllineridge we keep it loaded with soapy lubrication but cutting fat wood takes the pitch to an extreme. Diesel makes me a bit nervous. I worry if it would damage the bearings. Keep up the good work. I love seeing your boy running around. 👍🏻

Turned out great. Any idea what causes the “cat eye”?

Fat lighter/Lighter knot is what we call it in south ga

As you see this, you will be looking for cateye trees on your land😊 to cut😊

head boards for a big bed?

Two end tables or night stands just a suggestion

I would make a long pour and make a computer desk

MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼……………………………………………………………………..DEFINITELY an epoxy resin candidate! If you have ever wanted to experiment with epoxy, NOW is your chance. LOL

The old timers call that tradeing wood around here,a young guy would split up a box of lighter pine and trade it to one of the local widow women for uh,well you know

End tables.

Book match them to make a coffee table or a gun rack or something,

Good job ❤

You located in Georgia? I have a mill in Emanuel County and log some long leaf. I have some fat lighter logs I plan to mill at some point.

Fat literd and rose comb literd knots
