    Neighbor Al reminds me of my grandpa, he was as active and as lovely a person until his very last moment. I miss him a lot. Sending Neighbor Al - and you - the best thoughts and a virtual hug. .

    Great looking beams. Once you're done that home could have an elephant on it. I like how you are willing to try anything. Lots of hard work. You're kindness to Al is commendable taking a lot of time out of your day to help him. It's going to really tough for him when he can't physically do what he's used to doing. When I retire I'm moving to TN hope you can help me with tips on the chainsaw mill.

    Think about staining or even just charing the wood to protect it from rot! You’ll want to do it before you install it, so you can get the tops/bottoms of the beams and support posts.

    Have you thought about buying a Logosol F2 chainsaw mill? Alaskan mill is okei for bush cutting, but the Logosol f2 would make the cutting for you alot faster as you dont need to set-up any rails etc. I bought one this year and cant wait for spring to use it.

    Hola Diego, un trabajo bárbaro que te estás dando. Gracias por enseñarnos tu forma de trabajar.
    Por cierto tal vez te interese conocer un aserradero portátil de una compañía sueca Logosol, se llama timberjig.
    Y una curiosidad con tu apellido Mendoza. Es de origen vasco, y vendría a significar monte frío. Algo muy acorde con las frías montañas que nos muestras.
    De nuevo gracias por tus vídeos, saludos desde Europa.

  • @rayboucher479
    @rayboucher479 21 час назад

    Maybe 4’ or 6 ‘ 4x4 or 6x6 and cut groove in the centre so log rolls to it and stays there and maybe 45* cut at the ends so log will roll up easier . You can use these forever for you milling logs and it will make your job easier !

  • @SwimCoach8
    @SwimCoach8 23 часа назад

    Cribbing. Instead of building some lower saw horses, crib your beams to a comfortable cutting height. 4x4's or 2x4's incredibly stable and who cares if you actually cut into the cribbing a bit. Was also thinking upside down 5 gallon buckets. Really strong but require a mess of jockeying while your cutting.
    Question. Will these beams crack while waiting to be installed? Painting the ends to control drying? Will you be treating these beams?
    Thanks for your time. Love the videos.

    OMG Diego, If you don't keep those saw chains sharp, I'm gonna have to unsub. You're working twice as hard at it as you need to. The guide on your Beam Machine can actually rest under the saw powerhead. The main clearance focus is at the bar pivot point. Set it where the saw is best balanced. As you experienced, the longer the guide board (2x4), the better.
