Cabin on a cliff (Chapter 3): footings/foundation work.

Making progress on the footings. Clearly I could not have done this part on my own, however, if I was doing it on my own, I would have done things differently (and would have HAD to, clearly lol). My sawmill needs some adjusting (again), but don't most things in life?!? This hemlock was rather uneven from one end to the other. I decided to put the most challenging end to the front of the mill so that I wouldn't end up wasting too much material (it was very twisty, and uneven at one end). I have milled with a similar type of log in the past, and I ended up wasting material when I put the 'bad' end at the end. I made more passes on the log, but feel like I was able to control my cut-offs better, and will be able to use those slab cuts. I hope that explains things clearly enough. I've mentioned a little bit about Clyde in past videos. He is near and dear to my heart because it has been a long road to get him to where he is at today. He was a hunting dog, dumped in Arkansas. Found starving, and taken to a rescue organization. He lived there in an outdoor pen for a year, and not one person ever inquired about adopting him, until us (after we lost Tank last November). He had never lived in a home, was not potty trained, and had some food resourcing issues. We were told he was dumb, and knew nothing. Hearing all of that even made us question taking him, but something deep inside told us we had to give him a chance. And we are so glad we did! He will live out the rest of his days with us now, and he is the sweetest soul of a dog you'd ever meet. ❤️
