Perform Initial Log Cut

What happens here

The video captures a portable band sawmill in operation, making the first cut on a large, rough log. The log is securely positioned on the sawmill's bed. The saw head, which houses the band saw blade, is seen moving steadily along the length of the log, slicing through the wood. As the cut progresses, sawdust is visibly ejected from the cutting area. Once the saw head completes its pass, it retracts, revealing a freshly milled, flat surface on the log. The camera then provides a close-up view of this new surface, showing the wood grain and any natural characteristics like bark inclusions or discoloration.

Goal: Create a flat reference surface on a log.
