    You could use the pith for fence posts. Cedar, Black Locust, and American Chestnut, if you have those trees, there's absolutely nothing you couldn't make. Thank you Eddie, we could use more people with your attitude and thoughtfulness in this world. Happy New Year to you and yours.

    When Eddie tips his head on a 45 degree angle and looks down the length of the blade, it looked like the original 60's Batman series comic book filming style which employed crazy camera angles. Plus I'm sure one villain wanted to use buzz saws on their intended victims. BIFF! BAM!

  • @georgepretnick4460
    @georgepretnick4460 10 месяцев назад

    My first time watching your channel Eddie. Great to see the mill from your perspective. I'm a fan of hemlock wood. Much of many cities in the east were built with hemlock wood from PA and NY. In the 1860s to 1890s, the bison hides from the slaughter out west were loaded onto railroad cars and shipped to the greater Allegheny area in PA and NY. There were hundreds of leather tanneries in the Allegheny uplands. Hemlock bark was stripped from hemlock trees by many tons. The hemlock bark was made inti tannic acid which was used to tan the bison hides. At that time, there was no vinyl, plastic, polyester, or other oil based material. EVERYTHING was made from leather, wood, metal, glass, or stone. Once the bison were gone, the stripped hemlocks were lumbered to build Pittsburgh, New York, Cleveland, and many other cities and towns. Hemlock is a great construction wood, but is not cut for construction lumber as it was.

    A great informative video. It’s strange how these diseases develop. Here in England our Elms were decimated with Dutch elm disease and now we are seeing our Ash trees going the same way. We also have the beetle that devastates soft wood forests. It the way of the world with timber from any country being so readily available. Keep up the great videos.

    • @TheEddie1014

    I really enjoyed your description and history of the American Chestnut.
    We have 5 Chestnut trees on our property. They were started by our neighbor 40 some years ago. I'm not sure of the veriaty, but they are more of a Bushey tree. Los of branches starting 8 feet up or so. Fall is a real pain in the ass with all the hulls!

    • @TheEddie1014

    That American chestnut looks pretty much the same as the butternut and beech trees I have on my property here in New Brunswick along the Northern Maine boarder on the St. John River in the Appalachian Mountain range. I’ve sawed a few that were dead standing, and the butternut is an excellent wood I make heavy rustic coffee and end tables out of them.

    • @TheEddie1014
      @TheEddie1014  10 месяцев назад +1

      We refer to the butternut as white walnut and its a very desirable wood to carve

    Nice show, I've only seen one American Chestnut tree in my life, was at least 40 years ago in my hometown of Belfast Maine, I still have a leaf from it in my family Bible, I believe that tree was sterile as the fruit was very small and shriveled up, it was the same size as the tree in this video

  • @chrisoverman7551

    Does this have a high tanic acid content like European Oak, if it does you can darken it with ammonia.
