EPIC Cherry And Walnut On The Sawmill, Had To Use My Axe!

[Music] foreign friends let's go let the chickens out I've been making YouTube videos for seven years and every summer I'm pretty sure I always say this is the hottest one yet but friends I'm serious this time this is the hottest summer I can remember it's terrible better shut this off first I thought most of you are outside I think I got one that's being Broody in there let's go check on her [Music] and they're out there something I need to fix I've been meaning to all summer and as you can see I've not done it yet the bottom of the gate or the door rather whatever you want to call it gets hung on all the wood chips and the chicken run need to put me a solid piece of white oak right there and make like a threshold and shorten the door by about four inches and then hopefully I won't trip on it every time but I probably will all right looks like we got 10 of them out here that must mean four of them are still in the chicken house and I know before you guys say anything I do need to finish up the siding on the chicken house I'll probably do it this fall it's too hot to work out here guys I'm telling you it's just terrible my hats are off to all you guys out there working construction in this hot sun because I tell you it's terrible but when we'll finish this probably in the fall and I've also got a double the size which helped Mr wasper you going probably a nest up there well as I saying anyway so uh I gotta double the size of the chicken run she's wanting to have a larger Chicken Run for them for the winter so that's coming up also and when we do that I'll finish up this side [Music] well it's not as hot in here I got an exhaust fan that keeps this place kind of cool down a little and just as I thought we got three in here doing their job got some AIDS in there also I'll check on you ladies later gonna be doing some saw milling today friends let's jump in the 754 and grab some cherry got several cherries to work on this week and this one on the top I think is going to be a good one key word is think it's a good sized Cherry right there check it out an eight-footer and I'm guessing about 20 inches on the diameter I could be wrong run this one up to Sawmill friends and I'll be right back [Applause] [Music] see if we can get this one right here in the front probably take about three up there then we'll get started [Music] doing this in the tractor and not the track loader it's because we had a bunch of rain last night and that trash loader I think would mess up the ground pretty bad it's pretty soft down here I'll run this one up to the meal and I think I'll come back and grab one more [Music] go ahead and grab one more and we'll do one more step closer to Solon today I got one more thing to do before we fire up the meal [Music] [Applause] foreign that would give me three logs to get started with today but before we start mealing I've got to do some Lumber sword and I got a bunch of cherry on the outfit table I think I'll use the track loader for that though because it's got the paddling Forks huh don't forget to Sawmill I like the log yard it's not too muddy [Applause] if you guys don't care make sure you hit that thumbs up button for some reason YouTube told me recently that really helps these videos and it don't cost you nothing just hit that little button right there appreciate it foreign [Music] [Music] thank you foreign friends who's ready to saw up some nice Cherry I know that I am I've been looking forward to this log for a long time it's an eight footer in the diameter on the operator's side I can't remember what I guessed earlier is a 22 inches I can't remember what I said earlier I think I said 24 maybe I don't know down here on the other side is uh the same thing so no taper in this log a little bit of a bump in the middle but not too bad there's no cat faces I don't see any large knots any defects or nothing like that it looks really good this right here is a customer log friends although I did try to buy it when he delivered it but he wouldn't sell it and I don't blame him but this is a really nice Cherry he brought me about 1500 board feet Ruby sawing these into four quarter boards that's an inch and a eighth on the thickness now a lot of Sawyers out there when they saw four quarter they'll do inch and a 16th I like to do an inch and a eighth that gives you a little bit more meat on the bone after killing drying to flatten it down that's just my preference there's really no wrong way that's just an eighth of an inch that's just a sixteenth of an inch difference on most guys so I'll go a little bit thicker and it really don't matter in the end of the day so when it comes to Cherry friends there's a few things I like to do I grade saw it I look for my best face I open that up I did a few boards off all four faces and then we kind of see what we got left I get rid of the pith because it's junk and I get rid of the sap wood either during the sawing process or I edged those off the boards at the very end because sapwood and Cherry dries a lot faster than Heartwood and that will cause a lot of defects when air drying or Kiln drying so you want you want to get rid of sampled and Cherry it gives you contrast on the side eyes but I don't like it I like just the pure looking cherry and you'll have a lot better success on a cherry if you get rid of it and get rid of the pith the pith and Cherry is maybe the worst pith on any species of logs out there or trees rather it just cracks something awful a few quick things here friends when we'll get started number one I'm running the Joe main Silver Tip turbo 7 on the wood Miser today and I was also notified by a few buddies of mine up in Indianapolis at woodmeister that this month only and if you're watching this video in the future it's not going to count this is August of 2023 from August the 1st until August 30th I believe if I got my dates right if I don't I'll put it right here wood misers do 15 off on double hard blades and free shipping so for you guys that like double hard blades now is a good time to buy them you get 15 off plus free shipping and they're not paying me to tell you guys none of this they're not sponsoring this video or nothing like that I'm just trying to save you guys some money out there so uh holler at wood Miser if you want to try those out this month that's that's pretty good savings I shipped out some boards to some customers a few days ago and the shipping right now in this country for like ups and stuff has just gotten ridiculous it's got really high so if you get free shipping I jump on it [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] thank you [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] friends had to take a small break because the batteries and all my cameras are getting low I'll switch those out I dread this board back and it may need the sap wood taken off but I thought it would be a good one for you guessed it you guys see the bucket right there we're gonna throw some water on it so about three videos back maybe it's longer than that I can't remember anymore I told you guys my bucket had a hole in it well my good friend Joe main came up here and took me out to lunch the other day he was up here making some uh blade deliveries in this area and he brought me a new bucket but guess what happened that crack right there we had a storm last night and guess what it did it grabbed this bucket and threw it halfway across the hay field I think it'll work for now but I'm gonna need a new one sooner than later hello ladies how y'all doing today you enjoying this weather you're over here in the shade aren't you I don't blame you one bit it's too hot out here ain't it I've been saying that all day maybe somebody believe me foreign s we're gonna do something different this time since it's a nice sunny day let's put this one out in the sun I think it'll show up better this right here is bringing back memories back about 2016 2017. I used to do this outside all the time here we go well that went pretty good except for one thing about a fourth of that water went down my boot my goodness [Music] [Music] [Applause] let's see how we did one good thing about it no metal this was in a fence roll and this is the butt cut of the tree and I thought I might hit some metal in it no metal so far we may hit some metal when we get closer to the juvenile wood and toward the pit so far so good let's take this first slab off and see what we got [Music] [Music] thank you [Music] foreign [Music]
