I find it interesting/confusing that of the videos I did, the one that I personally thought was the better of the 4, has got the least amount of views by far, and I really don't know why.

I have watched them all twice and each has it's own strong points.  They all have different view points and often catch the same event from a different angle.  I do look at the video length and will aften defer the longer ones to a time when I will not be rushed to watch it.  

One item that has not been discussed very much is Jake's equipment handling ability.  He is a very smooth operator when it comes to handling logs and lumber.  thumbs-up

I think Tammy feels the same way!! ;D

I haven't watched the videos yet, I'm saving them for this weekend.

It sure was fun finally having the chance to get together with old friends and make some new ones!!

I've watched all of the videos and enjoyed watching all of them.  Travis was filming quite a bit last weekend too.  Jake may have another perspective of the project.  Jake's videos usually suit me just right.  He introduces himself and what he is about to do and gets to work.  

I applaud all of you who make videos of yourselves sawing.  Just about every time I do one, the tongue of the sawmill will fall off of the paver and smash the auxiliary battery, I'll run the saw into the clamp, or I'll do something else that would indicate that it is my first day on the job.

I'll put a 30 second to three-minute video on FB any time we need to saw/sell some wood.  It has been months since we posted one.

I've mentioned this before, but I really appreciate Jake for hosting this event.  It was great to see my FF friends.

I worked last pm, so phone on silent.  got a call from @Tom the Sawyer and he left a voice message.  He and his wife Jillane are thrilled and honored by the plaque and all the signatures of attendees of the sawing project.  I was given permission to post this pic.

Good Job on that Doc. I'm willing to bet that lifted his spirits.

A lot of great videos.  Even though I was there, I missed some of the action and enjoyed seeing it on the video.

Sorry I missed out. I was double-booked for the day as it was.

My wife and I went and saw The Scarlett Pimpernell musical at the Logos Theater. It was awesome, and a lot of my friends were in the cast.

Maybe next time!

I sure messed up, been a little busy since our weather has turned to spring and the extra daylight. I missed the annoucment of Jake's event until tonight. This was after watching Jeff's videos the past few evenings and thinking what a cool event and PEOPLE! 
when I read the announcement this evening and going through all the pages I saw where Bruno was coming, he's not far from me and I was wondering if I had the nerve to call him to see if he was going alone......
A little later in my reading (about pg15) I discovered my mistake that Jeff's videos were not from last year but last week ☹️
What an idiot. I clearly missed a great get together.
