My nice new rack for my slabs! Freshly sawn cedar sawmill slab rack.

My old slab rack was literally falling apart, and needed to be replaced! There were many good things about my original design that I liked compared to other designs I had seen online, so I figured I would go with the same general design, but tweak things a little bit. I knew I wanted the footprint a bit smaller, so put my 'joists' on top of my frame (rather than within) which will allow the saw blade to come down and not touch anything it's not supposed to (hopefully). I wanted it to be made of cedar so keep it from rotting too quickly (or at all). I also wanted it a bit higher off the ground, and was able to achieve that. I wanted to rearrange the area a little bit, so having the rack facing this way vs my old way will allow me to slide the slabs on the rack rather than having to lift everything up and over. I didn't test it out yet as I didn't really have time to before I left the country, so I will let you all know how it works when the time comes! What do you all think? Anything you would do differently? I might build something else to hold slabs I want to keep as stacking them in the pole barn shed isn't an option (they don't stack well with milled dimensional lumber). I was hoping to get this video edited and out before I left for Hong Kong, but man was I ever busy getting everything and everyone ready before leaving. Clyde getting lost really far away didn't help things. I hiked miles down and miles up to bring him home two nights before leaving, taking me nearly 3.5 hours! 🤪 Oh Clyde. He is on lockdown now, so apparently needed one last hurrah! 🤷🏻‍♀️ I am sitting in a coffee shop in Hong Kong uploading this video now, and unfortunately likely won't be able to really read and respond to comments for a while. But I still welcome them, and will look forward to reading them when I can! Thank you all so much for watching and supporting, and really appreciate your patience while I'm away and barely able to connect to internet.
