Good narration, and nice music. I wish more KZitem video creators would see this to get a better idea of video music presentation well done. It's not rude, raucous, or loud. Thank you. Please note: the cant hook was mentioned but that picture was outdoors. That means it would be the similar peavey, which had a different tip on it. When the sawyer squares up a log in the mill, the log is then called a cant. (No punctuation.) So that's where you find the cant hook in use. It has a blunt tip so as not to mar the lumber & log surface. Late in the video are two men using cant hooks on a large slab.

In Tipler Wisconsin was the AJ Tipler sawmill, it was destroyed by a forrest fire that almost wiped out the town, only 3 buildings remained. This fire occured in April 1931. Just across the river south of town was occupied by the Parker and Reisner families. My father was only 1month old at the time, but his parents, aunts and uncles as well as grandpa Parker were afraid that the fire would jump the river. However the fire remained north of the river. Not much remains of the town or the mill, and most of the graves have been moved to the Long Lake Cemetery. I visited this area in Florence County with my dad and brother in 1998, where I saw all of the area along with the Florence Township. In my home near Seward Alaska I have 1 old photo of the mill workers and an April 1931 newspaper describing the fire and the loss of so many buildings in Tipler. Well, it's December 21, 2022 so Merry Christmas to all from the Reisner family in Alaska. P.S dad will be 92 next March. I am his oldest son and now a grandfather myself.

I can’t imagine how strong these sawers had to have been cutting with those two man saws all day. We had one when I was young and chainsaws were way too expensive and I remember that they worked you to death. 6 days a week must have been tough

Why didn't they just use skid loader? Can do a lot more without having to feed an animal.
