I liked your comment “listen to your saw.” That was one of the hardest concepts to get across when I was teaching Industrial Arts, you need to use ALL OF YOUR SENSES when working with any tool. The sound, feel, look smell and some times even taste will tell you how your tools are working. It’s sometimes referred to as “flying by the seat of your pants.”

Grow up farming with old tractors, you always had to listen to the motor to tell you what was going on, from plowing ground to running an auger filling grain bins. Also running a mill or lathe, how fast you run the tool and how fast you feed. Watch the chip and listen to the cut, they will tell you if you are doing things correctly.

Another great sawing video! Enjoyed every minute of it. Mark you are a very methodical and careful head sawyer. I marvel at how you think your way through each log as the faces open up. It was great that you had a chance to saw some fresh oak and avoid the loose bark and stained wood. That Pin Oak looks like it is very dense and heavy wood but your saw was melting right through it like butter! You are blessed to have the “A Team of off-bearers working on the heavy end of the sawmill. THE Eddie and Buzzsaw Buzz had their work cut out for them this time with all of those 2” oak planks falling off the log! Great job once again! Thanks for all of your hard work!

Some yrs back I secured a Big Job hualing some big press dies. The where 99" wide and 16'Long and weighted about 24-27 Ton each. And I had 30 of them to move (to start). So I had a local amish guy cut me 6, 4"x6"x102" pieces of Pin Oak, Talk about heavy.... Then I counter sunk and bolted 2 of them together (Giving me 8" of height) and bolted them them to the deck of my 35 ton low boy. They where using a 50 ton tow motor that had forks that where 4" thick in the middle, and 6" at the rear to load these dies with. I put one set of these blocking boards under each end of the die. And one in the center. Which gave the tow motor operator plenty of room to get out from under the die after setting it on the trailer. That grumpy (Pittsburgh) tow motor operator was nearly beside himself when he saw this set up. And since they where bolted down, They didn't move. But they where a pain to set up, So I just left them that way till I was done. That little blocking trick secured me enough work for the next 4 months. Just because the grumpy tow motor operator didn't have to fight with 3x4's or even 4x4's and he loved that low boy trailer. That was best $150.00 I ever invested. And that pin oak hardly had a scratch on it when I was done. Having 3 points of contact on the trailer, They rode like a dream. There's something to be said about having the proper dunage to get the job done correctly. And to make the operators job that much easier.
