SDB777 Posted November 21, 2015 Report Posted November 21, 2015 Didn't do a time lapse, or any 'cool' stuff....just milled 2675boardfeet of Southern Red Oak - quartersawn, so it took all day....This morning, after the rain, I took the mill to 'work' and milled my stash. Wind and cold might may been a factor...it guaranteed that every bit of sawdust coming out of the 'exhaust' ended up in my face! I've been collecting random logs for the last few weeks...Eastern Red Bud, Persian SilkTree, Eastern Red Cedar, White Oak{inclusion}, Black Cherry....it was a bit to do. Made about 255 boardfeet of 'stuff' for future pen blanks, as well as a lot of scrollsaw blanks for the 'boss'.The Persian Silktree had a small crotch in it....close-up.The day was fun!Scott (sawdust in my nose) B amazingkevin and Scrolling Steve 2 Quote
