I just have my local sawmill guy do all the length cuts with his gas powered horizontal band saw and it barely leaves a mark for me to sand with my angle grinder with a 50 grit disc. He cuts anything up to 14 ft. and i've sold over a dozen benches that were 8' long. You just have to take all bark off of pine because that is usually where most sap is left and it will gunk a saw blade. I hate to see too much work going into a project....time is money

@Chera69Kimiko300 --- yep, we got us a new mobile mill since this video was made... =)

It's a real beauty! check out the videos... "How-to Mill Logs at Staggs Lumber" and "How-to turn Colorado Beetle Kill Logs to Lumber"

thanks for watchin' and keep up the good work...I wanna see some pictures or videos! =)

Great vids my friend! We've got some a lot of lodge pole pine that has been taken out by the beetles. The are destroying our forests but they do leave some good looking colors in the wood.

@campfiremeals Thanks for the comments. Yes, it is sad to see. The Mountain Pine Beetle epidemic is wiping out ALL of the lodge pole pine here in Colorado. We have enough wood around here to make log furniture til the end of time...
