Of all the sawing videos I've watched you are the only one that voice over explained what you were doing, well done

I don't comment often. I'm impressed. Dude knows his stuff!

Call me crazy but I still think that's a real nice piece of wood. Good job saving it from the firewood pile. Thanks!

You did a nice job with that old log!

Very much enjoy your running commentary. I’m merely an elderly city slicker who is fascinated with how you sawyers employ your craft.

Awesome ! I used to have only 25 Acres & heated house with 2 stoves . I called a guy in every year . He had a 40-20 cord King . He could process 17 Bush Cord in 4 hours ! I would load logs . He Cost about $500 ! Well worth it !

That old log made some beautiful lumber. This is the first video of yours that I've ever watched and your voice reminds me of a very dear friend of mine that I've known for 50 years now. I really enjoyed the video sir. Take care and may you and your family have an amazing New Year.

I like the way you break the lumber down. ,As your sawing, killing two birds at a time well done!

When stacking the lumber, choose one end as the reference end and place the first sticker right even with the end of the boards. While air drying, the lumber will crack on the end as it dries faster from that exposed end than the flats and it will crack in as far as the first sticker. Then place the rest of the stickers at the proper interval so the final sticker will be as near the other end as possible. This will minimize the wasted wood on each end. Depending on the normal humidity of your area, you may want to add one more sticker per layer to minimize the warping between stickers too.

It will just ad character!
