      Ditto Dianne! Never would have thought I would get addicted to Matt's channel with his knowledge of the northern woods (Texan here) and that he actually built this saw!! Been follower for several years. House renovation with Donavon was unbelievable! Great young couple, I applaud their living their dreams!

    Just had a tree cut down in my back yard and milled up into boards. Was so fun to watch the slabs come out one by one and look at how the tree grew. Love these videos and surely want to start getting more of my own lumber milled myself. Cheers

    I’m glad to see another sawing video. I really enjoyed watching your journey from cheap cold-rolled blades, to bi-metal blades, and then carbide blades. There are diamond-coated blades, but no Buckey Ball blades.

  • @medicineman311
    @medicineman311 Год назад +2

    Hey Matt, I absolutely loved your reaction to sawing through part of your mill, not a single sign of anger, anxiety or 🤬 words, (at least not on camera), just amazement and joy at the strength of your saw blade and mill.
    You’ve reached a wonderful place when you can look at bad situations that happen, expect them, embrace them and get past them because regardless of the fact that they are happening to You, you have the strength to handle them!

    That was a beautiful log. A few of slabs around #6 to about #9, wherever the imitation "epoxy" was were absolutely gorgeous. Those places show just how far away man is from imitating nature. Love the content, thanks for demonstrating how durable your saw blade is.

  • @elainecraig3132
    @elainecraig3132 Год назад

    Hi there Matt, I'm another one of your grandma fans. I have some woodworking experience and aspirations, and spent several years as a bicycle mechanic. Anyway, I enjoy your adventures.
    One of the most remarkable experiences I have had was the opportunity six years ago to watch virtually every step of the making of a viola for me. A family friend who is a skilled luthier knew I was interested and let me watch over his shoulder the whole time. One thing I remember him saying is that most trees have some twist to them (improves strength, I think) and it is virtually always a clockwise twist. Very rare is the tree with an anti-clockwise, or widdershins twist. The maple for my viola grew widdershins. I liked that about my instrument because I am left handed.
    Also, did you know that Antonio Stradivari lived and worked in Cremona, Italy? It is a fascinating place to visit.
    Thanks for taking us all along on your projects. E. Craig

    I love that you're able to laugh about things that would normally cause other people to curse their heads off. I've hit the log stops a couple times on my woodmizer - non-carbide blades are instantly toast. That was pretty impressive you just lopped off the 2x2!
