Milling Rare Logs
⚙️ EPISODE #217: The most fun I have on my shop bandsaw has to be when sawing up unusual local logs for lumber, especially the kind that are rare and have sentimental value. A local apple orchard was cutting down some trees recently and asked if I wanted any of the wood. What could I say…um, yes please! In this episode I saw one open and see what we have, trash or treasure. I also share a few tips and techniques along the way if you should decide to do a little workshop saw-milling yourself!
