I bet it would scare you in the amount of food those guys would eat.
I think I brought that VCR tape many years ago. I go up to Fyreburg Fair,Maine and sit down and watch the series.

That film is unbelievable. What I find most incredible is how efficient the logging and milling operations were in the 30's, and how hard it seems those guys worked. Thanks for sharing

amazing work these folks did, true americans at their finest.
only have a few chain saws I'm not suppose to use, but will at times, one dog Dolly, pretty good dog, just not sure what for yet,  working on getting the gardening back in order, and kinda thinking on maybe a small bbq bizz,  thinking about it,

Amazing video. Thanks for posting. Hard to believe how many men it took to make a board back then and how much physical labor it took. I imagine there were lots of disabled loggers and sawyers back then. I was thinking about how had they were working the horses then realized they were working themselves just as hard.
