Hey Matt….started following you a few weeks ago on YouTube….AWESOME STUFF!! I am new to woodworking myself but am really intrigued by the thought of milling my own wood….i have recently purched a home with plenty of property and trees…i just am not sure if they are good for using…..mostly Pecan And i think maybe white oak….learning to identify them as well. FYI…I’m in southern Texas. Anyway, keep up the awesome work and look forward to more of your vids.
