Fascinating video . Milling Live Oak in the Deep South - Rebuilding Tally Ho EP19 - YouTube

Deep South where? South of Manchester? Stopped watching after about 30 seconds. Couldn't understand a word.

Loved the Stones and Beatles but hate the language of the Brits. For some reason they can't pronounce an "R" at the end of a word. They inject an "A" sound instead.

I have a few Live Oak here. Spotted among the Mesquite "forest". Both are tough wood so wanted to see how it was milled. Lasted half a minute. :mur:

Jeepers, give it some time. The sawyer is deep south accent all the way. Fast forward to the milling machine.

Once my ears got adjusted, that was a really enjoyable video. I have heard of live oaks before, but never realized the difference from our local oak trees, pretty impressive wood.
In watching the follow up videos, This kid has more talent in his ear than me plus 50 of my smartest pals

How about that sawyer from Georgia? Amazing engineer in his own right.
