Yesterday I was fortunate enough to get out and visit two favorite antique and craft shops. In one, an artist had made cutting boards from odd shapes, odd sizes, and likely different woods. He suspended them in a closet-sized space in the shop, as beautiful artwork as well as functional in a kitchen. The one that caught and held my attention was the large one with a defect that had been filled with a vibrant blue, instead of the black I've seen in many examples. So, I would say that your current boards would still find lots of uses to many crafty types!

Nathan, there are craftsmen who would buy that cut-off with the wind shake crack. Many people would use it for turning fountain pen barrels or other small projects. Though it may not fetch the price of those 18" beauties, it can be sold for something. ...Cat food cost money!

IMHO at some point he has probably looked at the handling costs and margins as the sizes get smaller. We all burn wood daily that COULD have been used differently; I know I do. Every time you touch something it costs time and every time you move it it takes time and money. It’s like his comment on selling firewood - it just doesn’t make business sense when you can (my words) make more money on the good stuff and let the little stuff just go.

Just found your channel this evening. I have watched 4 or 5 videos so far. I too was originally from South Knoxville, Tn. My Papaw was a carpenter for the TVA HQ downtown Knoxville. Both parents worked and Mamaw kept me. So in the late 50's early 60's I was in the basement with my Papaw watching and helping when I could. He built desks, furniture and cabinets for certain customers on the side in his basement. He used solid wood back then, no veneers. 2 things I did learn, #1 was moving blade safety and drill press or router safety. I have all of my fingers and toes unlike a Papaw. He lost down to the first knuckle of his pointer finger left hand to a jointer blade. #2 was the beauty of real wood. I helped build things that went to very well to do homes and some were TVA Execs. In the mid 40's his military service was doing carpentry work building Oak Ridge Natl Lab buildings. End of WWII he moved to TVA and worked on Dam Construction. Later he moved to TVA HQ remodeling a building into offices for the EXEC's. He was Supervisor on the 3-11/4-12 shift. I saw you are in NE TN, The Tri Cities. Dad moved us to Texas in 1966. I love my Lonestar State, but Tennessee is love of my heart. Wife loved East Tn so much she wanted to get married there. Married in Sevierville at a Feed Mill & Store downtown. Not there anymore. My best friend in Tenn growing up has a sister who got into the B&B business in Gatlinburg. She and her husband lost some of their properties to the fires. I wish I could have spent more time learning the trade from my grandfather who learned from his father. I would never allow myself to touch that beautiful with a saw, hammer and chisel or drive a screw or nail into it. I am a wood butcher at best. Beautiful work on cutting/slabbing the logs you acquire.

I dont expect a reply or a like/love etc . My dad always talked about logging. My great grandpa was a logger in Fentress Co Tn and my dad spent many a day on the opposite end of a cross cut saw from his grandma. My uncle in Vietnam was an accomplished logger because no one else knew how to cut timber or use a cross cut. Dad would always look at a tree and say there is X amount of board feet. He cut a HUGE poplar one time and it was falling on him and i pushed him out of the way and he punched me because my pushing split the bottom of that log by 3 feet. Thanks for doing this. I was a MArine Recruiter in Kingsport and that area so . Semper Fi

I always like the bucket of water scene. It's the first glimpse of what's in store for the finished slab. I have in my future, if covid virus allows, a series of live edge walnut planks Danish oil party. I have wetted them down with denatured alcohol in front of a few people, but the first application of Danish oil would be quite a sight, and I have come to realize that it should be a shared event. All bought at auction for nickel on the dollar. Always buy lottery tickets on my birthday, but in reality, those walnut slabs are my fateful winnings.

Pen turners would pay good money. He could saw this burn pile wood into 3/4” x 8” stick (just big enough to fit in the smallest USPS flat rate box and probability be able to sell it for $25/box. I suspect he could do it with other hardwood scrap. Put a section on your website for wood turners? Another revenue stream without a lot of effort.

I’ve seen them on the river my whole life, non remotely near the size of that one. 2) When sawing, how do you decide how thick to make your cuts? Are your slabs primarily used for tables or counters?
