At least the split went pretty well flat down that pine log!

It will come, then I'll do it in the snow. :D
It has been nice, 50° today and looks to be that way for a week or so.
Scaling is the pits, but it's part of it.

Frost going in and coming out makes for some mud, Then the sun came out. And it helped dry it up some.

Pretty good!  I haven't sawed construction lumber in awhile, kinda looking forward to sawing some in the next couple days for a guy down the road.  Love it when I can pull the mill to the job with my tractor.

How are the mods on the mill working out 4x4?

Great but definitely need dragback fingers, the boards like to go everywhere.  Once I get some more time to do some welding/fabric making I'll nelly some up.  But for now, I'll just keep making gray hairs.  I finally painted the table last night.

Surprised.  I figured that would be bowl turning blanks.

I was smelling  butt roast and ribs, 
only have a few chain saws I'm not suppose to use, but will at times, one dog Dolly, pretty good dog, just not sure what for yet,  working on getting the gardening back in order, and kinda thinking on maybe a small bbq bizz,  thinking about it,

Man that looked like one big bad knot :D

Them Apple logs can become a head scratcher as to which way to start sawing.
Looks good Peter.  :)

Did a weekend pine job.  Towed mill there with tractor, too sloppy to get there with truck.  Hard to see, but the way the mill was setup I was on my tippy toes trying to see where the clamp was.  Actually enjoyed the mill being so high for a change.








Got that done then came back cleaned up my yard and set back up.  Got some spruce on the deck and oak is up next.

Good job, That is some nice pine. It's always fun sawing nice logs.
And I love the Green tractor. :D 8)

Thanks!  I had a blast sawing the pine.  It's been awhile, and something about that accuset 2 and making the offbearer scramble is just fun :D

BTW, I know it's been brought up before here but I've forgotten already, sawing that spruce there's smoke/steam coming out with the sawdust.  What's that about  ???

The log/sawdust was warmer than the outside air.  Kinda like blowing your breath out but in this case, the log was blowing sawdust.

Thanks, Lynn.  The blade broke out of the cut at the weld shorty after, so I wasn't sure if I was pushing too hard or something.  But I've read others having similar problems with these wm 7/34 blades.

Not a turbo 7° but a break the same, except I've never seen one jump out like this one,  first time ever, (i've seen a few break) ;D   


  

 
before anyone asks,  I had the guard on, it just flopped out when I pulled the cover..
