Title: Nice log
Post by: Bruno of NH on August 31, 2014, 04:19:16 PM

Loaded and cut a nice pine log .
15 ft long 27 inch in diameter .
Changed from a 10 degree band to a 7 dergree band with 22 side set it cuts alot better than the 10 degree bands i have been using.
It seems to make a smoother cut and works the mill less .
Thew log is almost clear making some nice clear wide boards .

Nice log with not much taper and a good opening cut.

Is that you in the second pic doing the "Happy Sawdust Dance"? :D

Nice log. I like the 7 degree blades too. Like your safety sign, also.
