nice video, noyiced you switched from clockwise winding the winch to counter clockwise, I find that more natural when milling as well, the string logosol supply with the kit, swap it out for some paracord, the little bit of give in the paracord smooths out any variation in your winding, makes the cut even smoother, start the cut, wind in hard, then just keep the tension on, the saw will find its own feed rate, ......loving that bit of yew, really nicely figured, just a shame there was no blue or purple in it,  keep up the good work

Thanks Agrimog,
Wow you’re eagle eyed! [emoji6][emoji106]
Interesting what you say about the cord.
There is a little play but that should stretch out shortly.
If not I’ll swap it out as you suggest[emoji106]
I broke one of the lifting cords, when I first got it. Tried loads of different paracords to fix it.
All broke under small strains.
Phoned Logosol, they sent me some of their stuff. So bleedin strong!
The yew was a mixed bunch, some plain some interesting, yeah not much purple/blue.

aye, strange one that on the lifting cords, rough hewn, been there as well, tried everything, but nothing seemed as strong, or as stretch resistant. interesting to see you going for the 0' angle as well, Ive found it gives a great finish, but slows down the operation a fair bit, for most hardwoods now, if I'm using the logosol , depending on the moisture content, its between a 5' and a 7'  grind, good green stuff, you can get away with the coarser one, most of the cutting is on the bandsaw these days, when I can actually get in, everywheres a bloody quagmire at the moment
