Day 437 - Milling Wet Lumber

Check out TimberKing for more info on my 1220CRZ sawmill, or one of many Made-In-The-USA fully hydraulic mills: https://timberking.com/product/timberking-1220-crz/

I caught lightning! Well, I caught it on camera. Pause at the 53-second mark to see it. I usually record time lapses of the sky in wide-angle on my GoPro. I wanted to record the audio of the thunder this time, so I used my camcorder instead. I just happened to zoom in on a section of sky to catch lightning zipping by.

After a 7-hour delay to install a water heater, sawdust is finally created! This lumber is wet and sticky. Wet enough that I ran the SawStop in bypass mode. As I was cutting, a puddle of water formed and tracked in front of the blade on a few of the cuts.

Dovetails are next!

JK Boots:
Hands down, without question, the best outdoor working boot that I have ever tried. They aren't cheap and they aren't inexpensive. The break-in period was brutal for me. But after some boot oil and a few working days for them to conform to my feet, I've never worked in anything as form fitting and comfortable.

My Lineup:
- O.T. Bison Canyon for everyday work
- Superduty Bison Shadow Roughout Smooth for earth work days
- The Buck Indigo Chocolate square toe western for days where quick on and off are valued
