@bradleykuechle7586 Год назад

From my experience with a wood box like that, I would put a chain across the open side on the top to help keep it from flexing and breaking. I know because I broke a box I built for the same purpose. Good luck, God Bless and have a Great Day!

Nice saw you have there. After my maternal grandfather passed, I managed to get some his carpentry tools, including several skillsaws. One of them is a beast.

The eBike's brushless motor and suspension system provide a smooth ride on any terrain. And with its Smart Saddle Detection+ feature, you can track your fitness goals effortlessly. I can't wait to get my hands on one of these! Keep up the great work, and I'm looking forward to more exciting content. Cheers! 🚴‍♂️

I bought one of the Makita 16 in saws 20 years ago for a project rebuilding a one room school house built in the late 1700's near Washington's winter headquarters in Morristown/Mendham NJ ... had to replace the original hand hewn sills, custom milled 10X10's 16' ... we duplicated the origin locking scarf joints using the 16 incher, then sold it afterwards ... but I've always liked worm drive better for heavy duty work... I have a prized old 7 1/4 worm drive Skilsaw I bough off an old timer who was retiring ... it was from the 80's and lightly used, looked brand new in the original case, the thing is a beast when cutting thick hard woods ... that's a good price for the Skilsaw, you might not use it a lot, but will be nice to have it for the big stuff

@dougvazquez6571 Год назад

We used to call the Makita 16" saw a "bologna slicer". Over the years, we would modify model 77s to be able to cut way past 45 degrees for our roof cutting work. It allowed for cutting the level cut of a 4/12 pitch on the edge of a stack of rafters. Also made it to be able to take up to an 11" blade. We called them "flop table" saws. The 77s were also modified with dado heads, which cut the seat cut of a stack of rafters on edge. It cut the seat and plumb cuts at the same time, making the flop table obsolete. Production roof cutting was a huge innovator for specialty cutting needs.

@Amritt_Poncho_Villa Год назад

Melissa, on a worm drive circular saw instead of the motor being directly attached to the saw blade. At the end of the shaft for the motor on a worm drive saw there is a large screw like gear. That gear engages with another gear that's attached to the saw arbor, which holds the saw blade. The advantage of a worm drive saw is that it delivers more torque or power than other circular saws. If you look at the motor on that Skilsaw, on the right-hand end of the motor you will see a gearbox. That gearbox holds the worm drive assembly that I described above. ; -)

SLILSAW now owned by Chinese company CHERVON. Saw was used by builders to cut glue laminated beams for a smoother end cut, rather than using chainsaw. Some also used it for wood "I joists." Great size for deck building when using 6x6 or 8X8 posts. We used to take White Oak posts and set them in 55 gallon drum filled with PENTA and use them for corner posts in the pasture. Thirty years later, still as strong as ever.

Mike a cargo net would be a good thing for that wood box you made. They have them premade for pickups that may fit perfectly.

@harrye.stoops8333 Год назад

I learned as a kid that when making a cut with a circular saw the motor side of the saw should be on the long part of the board, so that when the cut is finished the saw doesn't want to fall to the ground. At least your first two cuts, one with the small saw and one with the big one, were made with what I believe to be the wrong side of the saw resting on the part of the board that will stay on the bench. I know you're not really good with criticism, but changing might save a leg.

It is always best to cut Cherry late autumn and better during winter and Ideally it should be sawn within 5 days it was originally cut. Past the 5 days, Cherry wood tends to check or brittle. I used to saw planks 2 days after it was cut . Fibers occasionally fracture while the log is still standing. Hope it helps.

Also, if there were no trees on the side to 8' from the center, you could carry logs 16', or even 20' with a little maneuvering. You could drive the dump trailer back there, or even Bluford.

@thomasstrout1738 Год назад

I bought the 10 inch Sawsquatch almost 10 years ago and it is a very good saw. Always been a worm drive guy (Milwaukee 6377 from the early ‘80’s). The blade had a lot of flex and wouldn’t cut straight so I replaced it and problem solved.

@tkendr01 Год назад

Mike, when you finish your exercise with a 27 pound corded circular saw, you might consider a Makita 16" electric chainsaw available in corded and cordless form which only weighs 12 pounds. The cut won't be "cabinet grade" but it will be "good enough". I use mine to demolish wood pallets for fuel. The blade never pinches. I do have a normal wormdrive electric saw with the usual 7-1/4 blade. Both are purpose built saws. My favorite is the same trim saw that you also have.

That cracking looks like what most old school sawyers call "shake" ...when the wind causes the tree to shake and sway a lot, it can bow over enough the old wood starts to separate along ring lines and rays. when you mill a section that has that in it, it will naturally separate along those stress lines.

I believe that circular checkmark, in that log is called shake. I believe it’s damage caused by blunt force trauma. Basically if you fell the tree and it lands hard on uneven ground or bounces off another tree and it flexes the tree it but it doesn’t snap. sometimes trees continue to grow for many years with shake. Damage caused from other trees, falling onto them during a storm or during a lumber harvesting event.

Mike adds another toy to the collection! Love what you are doing, but I do think you are over-building things. I love my shooting bench I made based on your video some years ago. My only problem is that it takes my tractor to move it - LOL!!! Still, it's a nice firm base for those 100 yard shots. Keep smiling!!!

Hi Mike When our family was vacationing in The Great Adirondack State Park, I can remember when we would have a fire burning, occasionally dad would have us carry in a dozen or so hardwood rounds. After the fire in the fireplace had gotten well established, Dad would throw on the fire one or two hardwood rounds. When we all were ready to go to bed, and the heavy duty fire place spark screen was in the place, we went to bed. Those large rounds would burn all night and leave lots of hot embers to start a new fire first thing in the morning. I got to thinking, Mike, I never see you including, in your fire wood deliveries any fully dried, hardwood, rounds. Why is that?? Have a day. Me
