    Hi Mark, Ed, ZZ, & Hank. Beautiful lumber. I completely understand the " safe factor." Elm trees were unpredictable logs. That I ever cut down in my 37 yrs of firewood logging. The hardest to split. We wait for below zero weather to split one tree. We had a backup of dry firewood. They were " wettest" wood too. It smelled like " fresh tanned leather" too. I heard a man that said: Elm is a waste a time! It heated our house quite well. We do chunks of elm logs & " bank" the woodstove. There will be 3/4 of the logs gone in hot coals. Put on more & continue to heat the house. My first time seeing in lumber. Thanks everyone. Until the next one. 😍😊😉👍❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

    I have been told that elm does not make good lunber due warping and internal stress. Good luck to owner getting anything good out this lumber. As I watch this video it is reassuring to see the log move about on the cradle as it is being sawed. At least it makes an interesting video. Pretty tough trying to make something from nothing.❤😂

    In the early 1970s, I had a good friend who built his own house. He built all his kitchen cabinets out of slippery (red) elm. They were gorgeous.
    In our area, red elm was called "poor man's walnut."

    Nice. Our barn is elm truss. My Grandpa's father sawed the trusses for that about 1920. This video today gets me thinking how tough it was to do that back then. Really made the old Case steam engine have to work. I didn't think to ask Grandpa what they did to check for metal back then. There was more virgin timber in those early days. Quite a puzzle sawing these. Grandpa was very impressed.
