That is a beautiful live edge cheery slab

I lost pine trees back in 1996 to hurricane Fran. after I cut the trees down I hired a man to come out with his portable Woodmizer to make lumber. He was able to look at a log and determine the number of 2X12s, 2X10s and so forth before he made the first cut. worked out great, I ended up with cheap lumber for a barn project. The Woodmizer is a great product. I'm glad to see you going from firewood to making lumber. Cherry has the hardness to finish up really nice. have fun you two.

LOVE THE VIDEO,,, LOVE THE WOOD,,, LOVE THE MUZIEK,,, LOVE THE MORGANS,,,, LOVELOVE,,, BIG HUG TO YOU ALL,,, LOVE RICARDO.

You are doing a good job ,do not forget the knob laying on the ground for the adjuster very nice boards.

Very Very Awsome!! Nice Equipment!!👍👊

That last slab was perfect!! Exciting stuff, Morgans! And, you're right. Nathan IS the man!! Never miss a new contribution by that gent.

The two best shows here on KZfaq to watch and very informative about woods and the great outdoors

Hey Mike and Melissa, you both did good with the Wood-Mizer Sawmill today. That Cherry Log will make some beautiful wood and some fine furniture. You guys are showing the way to work together really well. Thanks for sharing.

That is rewarding, fell it , haul it , buck some and woodmizer some , all from your property , all by you !! This is really great ! Thanks

Great vid Mike! That was a lot of fun watching that machine do its thing. Send more, we are enjoying them! God Bless.

All I can say is “wow”. Those are some beautiful slabs. All we get on the MS Gulf coast is pine and some cypress. Those will make some beautiful furniture.

We thoroughly enjoy your videos. I really love this fresh sawn wood. It’s just beautiful. Thanks for the video. 👍👍👍❤️

‘Out of the woods ‘with Nathan is a fabulous channel Mike, love his accent.

"Box the pith" famous quote by Nathan Elliot. OTW Sawmill and kiln. 😁👍 That Cherry is beautiful. I wish we had some here.

Between the sawmill and conveyer I get excited now to watch what's in store with your channel.

Definitely one beautiful cherry

Nice wood and even nicer wood model!!! Haaa Keep up the good work guys!!! You two are awesome.

Beautiful wood, you are going to have lots of fun and produce a beautiful product

Cute dimples........ oh yea the wood looks nice too.

Wood mill cuts like butter, nice cherry wood.. have a good one guys..

The cherry looks beautiful! I can't wait to see what other kind of lumber you get out of your mill.

I hope you are a man of faith and thank God every day for your blessings. Most of all your family! You have a gas well money maker and now after watching this you have a second gold mine. That wood is absolutely beautiful! That and the fact that you have a plethora of it there is a lot of money in the foreseeable pipeline. Even if you had to buy every piece of equipment you have from the file to sharpen the saw all the way to the end including the tractors, the saw logs and firewood would pay for it all in no time! That board you cut in a 3/4" thick piece is probably more than $10 a lf! Keep it up and never take anything for granted especially your family.

The music at the beginning was great. Melissa while holding that slab:(internal monologue) wow this log would make great cabinets to hold towels in our pool house.....Mike!

Love Out of the Woods! And thanks for the Buckin’ Billy Ray recommendation.

You have that kid in a candy store look 😁 Looks like fun.

Great job and that’s a great Cherry Log. 👍👍

after cutting off that second slab...the revealed grain pattern and color was awesome!

The two M's, the Mizer and Melisa. Winners all the way. 😊🇺🇸🙏

Man, I am jealous. Invite me over I can't wait to see live!

That is an awesome acquisition for the timber operation there Mike very nice.....love the channel & the lifestyle very cool👍

Beautiful piece of wood.

Cherry is some good looking wood

Mike,thanks for giving Nathan a shout out ,great guy and love his channel as well...

Mr Mprgan, I value you. There's no BS here, unlike gov't. It's just effort vs output. You can't ask better.

nice grain, love that home umpire brush

Mike & Molissa very nice wood slabs,would make a nice bar top or table, with just clear coat. Mike you could hang a feed bag to catch saw dust to use for other things if you like, stay safe!

Nathan is the man. I'm glad you are following his lead. Nice work!!

Those cherry planks would make awesome picnic tables,I would love to have one

Ahhh...I can smell that wood ! What a great piece of wood came out of that log. Cherry is beautiful. That I can see something like a cabinet or fireplace mantel or even a piece of furniture. I was once told, no rain is going to hurt a working man. But for me, I liable melt because I've heard this once from my half. Ah you're sweet. I don't know about that. Looking in a mirror I think more sour. Oh well it is what it is. Anyway, good to see you do what you do and as I always said before, outdoors is the place to be. Michael from NW North Carolina

Nice log. You are making another job look fun.

love watching your vids,due to bad health I am prity mutch house bound so this gets me into woods most nights.health and happyness to all the family fae fife scotland

Great job. Beautiful wood. Could turn some nice bowls with that as well

Beautiful cherry slabs. Interesting to see what you do with them.

OTW channel is good to watch as well .his is very informative as well .Your last video about secuirty !well I have one situation that happens where did have break in but I wasn't home.But my K9 female 95 lbs Akita was well didn't go well for perp he was laying down on floor with her on his back and her mouth 3 inches from his head .been that way for 20 mins until I arrived and used zip ties to hold his hands am feet together until cops arrived .

Great educational video. It is nice to have the ability to create your own supply of dimensional lumber. The boys at Home Depot are going to miss you :) Related to tractors, some day you may want to do a video on the differences between the Shuttle Shift and the Hydrostatic transmissions, e.g. which transmission is best in which situations. Michael from Canada

Good video. That last pic was very beautiful and the wood was too.

Exciting times around the Morgan ranch for sure! Your cherries are humongous Mike, very fortunate to find these on your property. As time marches on, cutting different species of trees, you will come to love the various grain patterns each tree offers. Poplars, ( aspen family ) as an example, being the least popular of most hardwoods in my area at least, produce some gorgeous grains with a hint of green running through them. They make for excellent wall boards or floor boards for that matter. I have some 2" planks made from poplar & I will be burning it in the stove come winter too. Birch is another beautiful wood. If your'e real lucky, you'll find some maple with natural defects that can command some solid prices too. I recently blocked up a 20" beech above my pond area that snapped off at it's base from a wind shear ever last Oct. Food for the stove... Bill on the Hill... :~)

Groovin on the tunes!

Okay Melissa, it's lets make a deal time... since you help Mike so much with his projects and you let him buy his toys, I suggest the following... take any income produced from the sawmill and split it, half goes to pay for the mill and half goes into a pool fund... sounds fair to me. Great start with the mill... great videos guys!

Very nice. I think it would be so much fun to mill my own lumber.

Very nice! Cherry is the best! The Woodmizer is made in my home state of Indiana.

That is some nice boards. In a year or two it will dry and ready to make a nice profit. Also smells fantastic. Good luck with the machine.

Beautiful cherry log!

Why is it I'm never surprised by your music and i enjoy very much.

Here, Here, on that sustainable forestry "Tid Bit". As with your state of Pen, here in Wis, the virgin pine forests were pretty much clear cut in the late 1800 early 1900s. Most of the areas grew back to hardwood stands, and they R alive and kickin. Nice sawmillin vidja.

I have a Norwood HD36 band mill. We use a 10" drywall knife to get rid of the saw dust off the boards. I think it is important to do that to prevent mold from growing on boards in the stack. Beautiful log.

That will make some beautiful furniture.

Great looking log. Let the good times roll 😆

Thanks for the history lesson.

Beautiful mill Mike. Wont mention the one that I bought 18 years ago but the old girl still works. Ended up putting the frame onto a 4 inch slab of concrete. Mine is pure mechanical which I love-----get used to sharpening those blades----they dull fast on dirty wood. I sure wood put all that electronics under cover , but that's me. Good luck and learning---there is a curve but Im sure you will master it

I made all my cabinets out of cherry they dark in with age so beautiful that guy your talking about Naithin is he from Kentucky there is a guy on KZfaq 5hat has a Wood miser i watched cut up a butternut log nice stuff to keep up the great bids say hi. to the family ¡!!!!!!!

Beautiful work on beautiful wood. The school where I teach still has a woodshop class. The teacher is about to start his 38th year teaching that class. You should see the stuff his students turn out. Cherry is one of his favorites to work with. Keep up the good work!

The bark reminds me of hickory. I'm sitting here looking at a cherry grandfather clock. It's gorgeous---and handmade.

That's some beautiful wood.

I've seen 8" plaster spreaders used to scrape off the top - in long sweeps. Wide blade. Brush works with more work.

That thumbnail should be called " Beauty and the Board. " Both are great examples of God's artistry. God bless you all my friends.

Congradulations on your new mill! When you built the building for your mill, put a compresser in there for mill maintenance and general cleanup.

Pretty stuff!!!!! Now you need a few acres of white pine so you can saw up some lumber for the pole barn. That is my plan.

Congratulations 🎉👏🇬🇷

I am turning green with envy, you and the mizer make it look easy. Love cherry, walnut, well just all wood, the smell and the feel as your making something is just wonderful. Keep sawing videos coming.

beautiful wood!

Hi Mike, a little trick I use when I want to show the grain of a fresh cut slab is to take my pump up sprayer with clear water in it and wet the wood a little, it will pop!

Beautiful Wood !!!

Nice job buddy. Love sawing cherry

A nice 40×80 pole barn with concrete floor would be a nice addition to get all equipment and sawed boards out of the weather . Then you can keep going while its raining. Lol that is very nice looking cherry.

Great video Arizona appreciate it. Need one of those saw for the giant mesquite trees we have here.

We call that wild cherry over here in western pa! I have cut tons of that for stove wood makes good heat. Splits nice an smells good when it burns! Makes nice lumber I see also love your videos!!

What I hear s Melissa thinking,...H'mmm that cherry wood would make a beautiful table or mantle piece,..or whatever. Wood working courses coming up for Mike this winter!!

Great video, Mike & Melissa! Probably been suggested already, but y’all could use that sawdust to make fire starters to accompany your cord wood business. Please tell Hunter “Howdy from Texas”!!

Loved the music 👍

I like the music, good job

I was thinking you could run those first two slabs through a table saw and knock off the sapwood and then plane them down good then you could join them and you would double the width of your slab.The top of one is going to match the bottom of the other so you could go that route OR you could mix match them to see which is more interesting.Cherry is beautiful wood!I envy you for the resources you seem to have in abundance and all the wonderful toys you have!Anyway,love your videos,guys and keep them coming...

Keep the music coming Mike good choice of backing tracks

Mathew Cremona is another to watch if you want to learn about milling!

Brilliant

I live up north of you!! "Black Cherry Timber Capital of the World"

Nice to see you moved that water line. ;-)

Mike, The log looked nice and flat when you put it down. I was hoping that you could have gently pushed it into place instead of rolling it. I think you may have gotten a little more out of it. Beautiful grain on it. Nice job.

i dont know anything at all about milling but it looks to me lime youre gettin the hang of it pretty quick. you can send the rain to ky, we need it and you can keep on milling and videoing. say hey to hunter and yall HAVE A DAY👍👍👍👍👍

To The Tree Huggers: I am part of the NY Forest Owners Association. I own 278 acres in the southern Adirondacks. (I know, I have said it a million times! lol). 2 points about tree felling: 1/ My property is about 240 acres of forest. I got to know the man who grew up on the property as a kid. He is 84 today. When he brought pictures from "the farm" during his heyday, I was absolutely amazed that there wasn't a tree on it! It was ALL farmland (although, as everyone soon came to find, not very good farmland). Fast forward to today and it is almost all huge Maple, Oak, Evergreen of all sorts, Aspen, Birch, Beech(those damn Beech! lol) etc. Point? Trees grow back! 2/ This is this month's newsletter from the association: Interesting article on the front page, reprinted from a 90's article. It goes into how people (not just tree huggers but everyday folks) think about tree felling today. www.nyfoa.org/application/files/8715/6460/9845/SAC_Summer_2019_Newsletter.pdf And I won't get into why my forest is growing old , because new growth is eaten away by the over abundance of deer on my property, and why they need to be culled. A different day/article for the "deer huggers". (and I don't hunt anything but Upland Game....of which the grouse population is down 90%!!!!! because of the same no new growth problem). Hope this helps Mike!

I can see it now! Your deerstand will look like a cherrywood Chippendale highboy.

Hey Hunter ! ! ! Hope all is well.

Awesome Mike! I want one ! WOooooooO!

You really should build a cover for your sawmill and to keep all your wonderful wood dry. Keep up the good work on the videos .

Boy I can see a lot larger building being built and a lot of woodworking equipment in your future.

Love bucking Bill on the harmonica

Wow nice wood

Mike I have been subscribed to OTW longer than you all and I can hardly wait to see yours or Nathan's next video. 😊😊😊😊 That cherry is very pertty .
