Watch Chainsaw Milling Colorado Black Walnut by artist Mitchell Dillman http://ColoradoSpringsSawmill.com for a quick look at cutting a big Walnut log. 

This weeks video features Scott Schaeffer and his 60" Alaskan Chainsaw as he hand cuts this large Colorado Black Walnut Log. Scott starts by cutting a flat spot needed to fasten the rails for his chainsaw mill. Next he cuts off the first 14" of the large 42"+ log before re-setting his saw to cut a series of 10/4 live-edge slabs. 

As Scott cuts the log Mitch begins loading the kiln to begin the curing process after he cuts the remaining pieces on his bandsaw mill. 

Come back next time for more about the kiln drying process.
