learned a lesson about blades as I had only band saws before I bought this saw

cool song I would like to put it to music and send it to Mark Galicic to play on his channel

enjoy it often

thats not a bad idea. thanks for sharing Frank

Thanks for the info. I use the 1 1/4'' blade because they are easier to find .Also I bought 220 used blades from a man who doesn't reset his blades after a couple of sharpening's. They all were shining like new and were Woodmiser blades and I bought them all for 100 $ and they are the proper length for my saw!!! Yes I have a commercial sharpener that I bought and repaired. I also have a blade setter so I am set!!! Thanks for your comment FRANK

@@frankiesixsaws wow! 45 cents per blade! Excellent , to say the least

Ordered my Epicsaw power head this morning. The best, and I mean THE BEST customer service I think I've ever experienced. I've emailed Tony twice now (a month or so part), and he responded both times in less than five minutes. Not promising he'll always be that fast, but he will bend over backwards for you! Oh, he's from the Pacific Northwest I think, and I'm from Nova Scotia, Canada, so I have no affiliation with him.

@@claytonnicholson4639 excellent news! I really like how it goes past the cut and back up automatically. I have bad shoulders, so it will be the first thing I get when I get my mill. How long before he can send it ? Thanks

Truthfully, ai didn’t even ask, we have had almost 7 feet of snow here in the last two weeks…expect to see the mill in August maybe! Lol I think he’s working like a madman to fulfill orders, but he makes them by hand (I believe), so he’ll have his work cut out for him. Especially, once word gets out on these.

It is an oil cooler for the engine

i believe the 128 has hydrostatic drive and the 127 doesn't. also the 128 has speed control handle back at the operators left hand

127 can cut a max of a 7x12 beam 128 can cut a max of a 8x12 beam

Explains a lot of what I am seeing

We do have the magnetic rules for the mill. the problem arises when you move more than 3'' on your cut you gain kerf measure that you havent used. Example ,When you drop 6'' you are actually dropping 6 and 5 kerfs which equal 6.32 '' instead of the 6 '' you want to cut. you can take the time to replace your kerf adjusted rule over to the true rule and then it would be 1 kerf too narrow. Plus the time to change over and to zero out the rule before selecting your cut would take longer by far than just grabbing a tape and getting the job done. Thanks for your comment

Its been added to cool down the engine oil by 60 to70 degrees. I plumbed it into the engine where the original oil cooler was. I used a external oil filter adaptor to accomplish this .The engine really loves the cooler oil ,and the oil pressure came up 30 lbs!

The sockets on the 130 max are a little to light duty to keep the back stops square all of the time without bending them when we roll big heavy logs against them, so we like to check them for square when the logs are extra large in dia. It is easier to square them when you turn them backwards. Thanks for noticing the backward roll!

I paid to have a blade made by Simmons that takes Type F or B teeth so I can run carbide teeth. They are 1/4'' wide teeth .Before buying this blade I used 9/32'' blue tip teeth without much problem other than I had to sharpen them often. I prefer to run 12 tooth blades as I believe I get better results with them. I used 6 tooth blades and the sawdust didn't shoot near as far away from the mill. I know ,I know ,many of you use 6 tooth blades ,all I can say is ...try a 12 and you might get a Suprise like I did. I noticed that the blades with more teeth stayed sharper longer. Thanks for watching. Frank

You can't run the saw without using one edger saw. You have to cut 6'' or smaller in width to use both edger blades. thanks for noticing that I wasn't using two blades as I was cutting 2x8''. Thanks for watching. Frank

Not the mill trust me

I have sawed dry tamarack my 7 degree blades work fine

I have not heard of anyone using half inch blades. I don't see how they would work as they would run the teeth on the wheel and cutting the v belts that the blade runs on. If you have any info ,please share as I'm always looking for better solutions thanks for watching Frank

@@frankiesixsaws SORRY...I MENT 1 1/2

I use carbide in some hard woods
