What are you building with your milled wood? merged

[BobL]

Wow. I can't believe a thread I started a LONG time ago is still alive.
Beautiful work everyone!

Its pity so many pictures were lost from this thread, especially yours Stony as some of your early posts had quality/impressive pics in them all done with a 50cc saw as I recall.
Apparently it happened to a lot of forums during a 2012 forum software update.
If you are a long standing member and posted a lot of photos the Mods are interested in getting them reinserted.
If you see them nicely they might let you re-edit your old posts so you can re-insert lost pictures.
I have been slowly putting mine back in.
Only have about 2000 to go!.

A bridge, quite a ways out in the woods,

Almost done,

Just need to trim the boards, and bolt a 2x on both ends of the boards...

Making a few cabinets to help a friend with a kitchen update. Matching his current cabinets is necessary. More photos when installation is complete.

Bridges in remote areas are some of the best structures. They are enjoyed by few, typically, but they are magnificent finds to be relished.
This is a bridge my son built for a fella in Indiana. He logged, milled, designed and built this bridge with some good help in a few weekends. I don’t recall its dimensions, but it is much larger than it appears.

I'll have to look through and see what i have for pictures.
Yes, good memory. Much of my milling was done with 50 cc saws. I did step up to an 80cc pioneer near the end of my milling day's.
I may start milling small logs again. I no longer build furniture for a living. But have recently gotten the bug to build again

Spalted beech, Christmas dinner (I got it done in time). The log that's shown in the sawmills thread.

That is a very nice looking structure. The large scale jointery on the support looks intricate! Surely a good find to stumble across in the woods.

I only have plans thus far. I have 20 acres of timber, plans to build a small cabin and I have narrowed the choice of sawmills down to 2.
I’m having a joyous time /s filling out Land Management Plans in the meantime.

I built these out of poplar that I milled off the property

 

[SawmillMan]

Are the stair treads inset in the stringers or just pegged/lag screwed & plugged? Looks very nice.

 

[serioussam]

Hey thanks , I used grk industrial screws counter sunk and plugged holes with dowels

 

[chunky]

Got just a simple shelf put together the other day. My daughter didn't want to wait on me to get a 10' slab cut so I had to join 2 slabs in the middle.
I usesd 5 half in dowels 6" long to join them.
It's for shampoo in her salon so nothing fancy, just 2 coats of clear polyurethane

That’s a fantastic bridge. Don’t diminish your nice project by comparing it to other bridges. Very nice work and being red cedar it will last for quite a long time with no maintenance.

They look good, I will try and get there on the weekend and take a couple of pics of mine.

I am so bad at remembering to take pictures. Here are a few of my current projects. Both are birch that I milled from my land. The table is shown just stained and with one coat of sealer on the top. I'll finish spraying in the morning. The 2nd table picture is right after I sprayed the sealer, so there is a bit of overspray in the pic. The 2nd piece is a tv cabinet I have been building. That one won't be done for a week or so as its no hurry. I'll post pics of both finished after they are done. The table pics should be here saturday. All the birch was milled with a 48cc 031, 24 inch bar, baileys lp chain.

Well as soon as I get a most simplest of setups going ill be milling some beams and 2x4s to rebuild my shop that my ex wife burnt to the ground with everything I owned in it about a year and a half ago. I've got around 7 good sized oak logs i have fell throughout the last few months and finally have a worthy saw to get the job done. Can't wait.

A few weeks ago I milled this cracked dry cant of Silky Oak


Which my brother has just finished turning into this.

Some of the board were cracked but instead oaf cutting around the cracks he deliberately incorporated them
