Engine Blown? Testing the sawmill after ENGINE TROUBLES
What happens here
After the first cut, use the sawmill's hydraulic log turners to rotate the log 90 degrees. Visually inspect the log to ensure it is correctly positioned for the next cut. Activate the saw and make the second pass, creating another flat surface adjacent to the first. Remove the resulting slab.
Goal: Create a second flat face on the log, perpendicular to the first.
