I've been an expert sawyer several times myself. For the first time ever yesterday, we sawed right past a nail that neither one of us saw. When we went to edge the flitches on the mill, there it was, sticking right out of the side of one of the 1 1/8" boards, untouched. Perfect blade placement and expertise. :)

Sorry but you can't be an expert if you missed the nail completely. I'd rather miss the metal than be an expert.

Dave nice boards out of that log. Too bad about metal hit, I know a guy with desetter but the expert way you approached that lag bolt I don't think it will do much good. Excellent video

The toe boards may have been manual but also self lowering 😁 Good video Dave!

Would a garret metal detector help

It would, if I used it. I just bought a good detector and it's in the shop. I'm thinking you actually have to USE them for them to work. Dave
