Wouldn't work. If the plane is being held stationary by the treadmill it can't take off, and if it's not being held stationary it'd still have to have room to get up to speed.

No, you just run the treadmill in the opposite direction as fast as the plane goes to hold it in place until it's going fast enough to take off. do the reverse for landing. it's simple.

Change the gear ratio a bit and I would ride it. They need to do two seats facing each other for balance.

Surely it would have been easier* to put the log on some sort of dolly and keep the bandsaw stationary?

*Not sure if it would be safer...I feel a homegrown sawmill is never safe.

Apparently it was a wooden building under construction and the wood hadn't been treated with fire retardant yet. So when it caught fire it just went up like a giant bonfire. :supaburn:

Does it get more OSHA than nuclear testing?

These recently declassified nuclear test videos are utterly mesmerizing, terrifying
Sat in vaults for decades, Lawrence Livermore National Lab is putting them on YouTube.

That is quite possible.

There is a proposal to turn off DSCOVR’s Earth‐focused instruments.

It will still be up there, functional, and observing the Sun, we’ll just throw away the climate data.

You save pennies buying the wood and the treatment separate and getting untrained laborers to apply it at some point during construction.

Its not dead yet, just on the chopping block to be defunded starting 2018. That said of the proposed organizations to axe, the CSB is a likely to draw attention because its product is simultaneously non-binding and anti-industry and its not a sacred cow providing welfare for old rural white people.
