    This is how the world should work. Looking out for one another. Tom didn’t have to give you all that wood to cut up for firewood and you didn’t have to cut him nice cherry boards. But you were both looking out for each other. That’s what makes the world go round in my book

    Over 30 years ago I made a three leg table in college in a woodworking class. The lumber had to be purchased separately as it was not included in the class. The cheapest lumber for the project was Cherry and it was $20 I know that does not seem like a lot now but back then that equated to a half days wages at my job. I could buy groceries for the week for $25. I made the table entirely by hand over the course of the semester and put a hand rubbed finish on it. It came out beautiful and I got a 100% on the project. I gifted the table to my mother and she still has and to this day. The cherry has darkened over the years and in my opinion it looks better now than it did then. I love the way Cherry ages. God bless you and your family.

    Nice to see Tom back at Mike's! Tom jokingly said this mill might wind up behind his building, well maybe it can be because there's a 450 Woodmizer coming to the Morgans! Cutting that log only took a few minutes and made two men very happy, I'm telking you if I could go back 40 years I'd buy me a Woodmizer mill! But I do get to enjoy it here though. I guess you better get busy and clean up the wood there Mike, what w the new skid steer coming - I can't wait to see it's results of the renewable resources processing area, yay! Thanks Mike for another great video!👍🚜❤

  • @jimshoe6828
    @jimshoe6828 2 года назад +16

    Hi Mike
    When we had WoodMizer out to service our saw, they told us that when you see blade chatter in your material that means you are cutting too slow. Very counterintuitive, but they said the chatter is caused by the blade wandering and not cutting new wood.
    We found that running faster eliminated the chatter. The speed can vary from piece to piece.
    Tom, if that concrete career doesn't work out, you have a lot of potential as a cabinet builder!
    Good job 👍🤗

I've only been collecting firewood from arborist for 4 years and logs from predevelopers actually wrking their equipment in exchange for logs.more fun.i was the first in Ontario to purchase the lx 25 woodmiser hobby mill.1.5 year now. I'm just now retired as a stonemason to this amazing new joyfull hobby.however it's growing fast to be more then I could examine.thankyou for your inspiration and family oriented enterprise.keep up the light you all shed.

    Where is the REAAALLLLLLY Like button??? Man, that was pure emotional adrenalin, Mike! Just yesterday, I finished up a 20" lazy susan made of some virgin timber cherry that I have had stickered and stacked for over 40 years...and it is some truly beautiful stuff. So, when you opened up that cherry log and that gorgeous wood came jumping out, I was over the moon happy. I have lots more to say, but it would be too much for you to read.
    THANKS a million for involving Tom in the sawing process. That wood will turn into some wonderful stories that last generations---and you were a major part of it, Mike! SUUUUUUUPER!

    Beautiful Cherry lumber, We would harvest Ice mid winter from the lake and store it in a shed . After lining the floor with sawdust. Then layer with 2' square cubes and insulate each layer with sawdust. Ice was a big cash product at Dad's gas station. Along side of camp firewood. It was sold by the pound. We got pretty good with an icepick marking and cutting from the big cubes then hang on the scale with ice hongs.

  • @dmorgan28

  • @morgansword
    @morgansword 2 года назад +3

    This is where two professionals can help each other and its a dream come true. Firewood is a given.... sells twelve months out of the year but lumber is not a necessity so sells when the need comes. Your well located so it probably would sell well should you choose to do so. My son is now getting a mill and wants dad to teach him how to operate it... I just may make a fool of myself after this many years... he brought home a really nice tractor for this whole thing.. He is a superintendent on the largest gold mine in alaska and well loved there but so tired of the hectic schedule. Its a six figure job and yet not happy and fifty nine years of age so if you do the numbers, he is my step son but we never sort chairs at the table and he does love me so I guess I had best step up to the table. I keep trying to figure out if you do sell lumber on a regular basis or are waiting for that kiln. ? Later Mike

    Yes Mike, shavings and sawdust are a good insulator. We used to cover blocks of ice with 2 1/2 to 3 feet of shavings, in our ice house, and they would last for 4 to 5 months. Cut out of the lake in the winter and saved most of the summer. We shipped cream to the cannery only once a week so the cans of cream were kept cool in the ice house prior to shipping.
