The GRAPPLE went THROUGH his guys HAND!

What happens here

The remaining portion of the log is once again manually rotated on the Wood-Mizer LT40 Wide sawmill bed by Nolan and his team. Nolan explains the importance of this rotation for maintaining stability and ensuring a good clamp for subsequent cuts. This strategic positioning allows for continued milling to produce additional high-quality, uniform slabs, minimizing waste and maximizing the yield from the log.

Goal: Prepare the log for further cuts by rotating it to a stable position.

bragging rights so i think what we'll do now is we'll flip this and get this flat side down and then uh slab it from the other side you don't want to try to just keep slapping it why wouldn't you try to just keep slapping it down right here so we've gotta be able to clamp and also have good support on the back side okay
