Great video! I really appreciate how you shared the challenges you faced with your dust collection system and the things you wish you had done differently. It's super helpful for anyone planning a setup.

I love jobbing, that said I never assume any monetary risks and do the sourcing of raw materials myself even if all or part of logs are customer provided. I charge 50% above all my sourcing costs and collect double this estimate as an up front deposit. So customer is always paying in advance for my time and the materials used in their job and I incur no out of pocket risks for lumber/log costs. Having a vacuum plate kiln I can control outcomes as lumber dried in this manner does not warp or check to any degree as all drying is from the ends as in nature and lumber dries fast and more evenly. Further deposits are collected when sawing commences and when drying starts and final milling. Final inspection and payment is made at my plant before any lumber is loaded elminating any returns and shipped in that manner my financial risks are essentially zero limited only to lost profits on final balances. If a customer ever defaults I am left with the product at no cost to my firm which has never happened and I have never lost a job over my terms. In fact only customers that want to save and have high end results that can afford the build and are appreciative of seeing all costs in advance before going forward so credit checks are never needed as I am always working using my customers funds.

I'm not worked up! This is what I've been waiting for!

The true meaning of universal is " does not fit anything properly "

Have a great tree season Cory!

good video,

It’s fun having multiple businesses. I won’t hardly saw until February because we process deer until Valentineday most years.

Good help is hard to find

Amazing planer, nothing nicer than Northfield 👍

Lmao 5th year, git back to me in 15 year. My got to 19 year doing nothing.

Great content!! What thickness do you make your ceiling and wall paneling?

How did you get the 20' stuff straight after it was dry ? I know you said it finished at 9 1/2" and started out at 11" . It is too thick for your edger isn't it ?

Great info

I know you gave some rough information about the large oak beams but I'm interested to know more if you have time. What was the initial dimensions? How long did you air dry for? How long n the Klyn? What was the 4S4 dimensions? If you could I'm also interested in your time spent on each phase of them. 20' long beams are not the easiest to move around and I'm estimating the weight as around 300lb wet and 233 dry. If you think my weights are off what do you think. I'm just thinking that moving them was a challenge. Thanks in advance - Andy

I just put my first batch of walnut in my new to me L200M and it’s high moisture. I have moisture seeping out around the door but nothing coming out the condensate hose. Is this normal?

I myself run a small Mill and solar kiln operation. That being said I really look forward to your videos, you go through a lot of effort to explain all the details and little things most people don't understand about the process of producing quality materials. As always another great video, please keep it up thanks

Hey, I agree. I bought one to take with me on the coach. 12R-22.5, 115 lbs. no trouble. It just takes about 20 minutes.

I’m in the early stages of building a kiln. I’ve purchased a Nyle L200S. My initial layout would allow for drying to 17’ long. For your drying needs, is that long enough? What’s the longest you’re able to dry?

The reason is it's density.

Black locust is as hard as ironwood.

Absolutely hate seen and using one

are you in michigan ?

Mine is the vacuum cleaner when I use it in my underwear. My balls get dusty so...

The only thing dangerous is the way you hold it. Don't hug it buddy. Hugging a potential boom boom can eliminate you.

i mean.... i have never used one of those tanks. but is it scarrier than ether and a lighter? because ive set like 20 beads with fire. cqn't imagine the proper tool being more dangerous

Spring compressors... but honestly, the thing that scares me every time has gotta be the trusty 2 ton bottle jack. From lifting trailer houses to pushing engine sleeves out those things are always a 2 ton catastrophe waiting to happen.

Cheetah is pretty bad

Do you have to keep the dried wood in an atmosphere controlled environment once it’s dried?

That's something people don't thing about Trees too close to the house and then causes damage later and we don't think about the roof after 70 years where do you get the material if something goes wrong after a storm

I love watching your videos! You are an inspiration

Another great video! Greetings from Cambria County.

Good job Cory

I love the way you did this video, kind of keeps things moving along fast for us watchers, well done 🙂

Enjoyed the commentary. Are those logs you purchased a while back and videotaped?

I have a few questions if you don't mind. I've heard in the drying process that the sap wood drys at a much different rate than hardwood, which causes a lot of defects when trying, do you find this true. I also noticed a lot of stress on log, does that concern you when making boards. Last question, since you grade sawing, where you concerned about the minimum width of the boards?

Nice job, great video

In the pice you are showing at 11:35 - there seems to be lines in the boards - thats clera how to fix. But i also see tear-out. How did you fix this in the final boards? I keep having the same issue from time to time, and I can't seem to get rid of it-it really annoys me!

What size sawdust extractor blower do you use for your sawmill? Is it 3 phase?

Is there any chance of seeing this when he completes his build? Love the rustic look as well. Those little imperfections that some don't like just add character, in my opinion. Thank you, Sir, for posting.

20 foot stuff is insane , wish you had photos of their planer set up .

Show the hickory. I’m planning to lay hickory in the cabin I plan to build next year or the next.

Great video. Could you share a little about the economics of of a project like this. Does the customer end up paying more or less compared to buying the same materials from a standard source? How do you charge for this type of service? By the hour or by the foot?

Loved the video! My brother and I run a sawmill and are looking into wheel loaders. Can you unload log trucks with this model? Looking for something that can handle 30ft+ logs and can lift them over the standards of an 18 wheeler. Thanks for the info!

Hey! If you're price is good I'd like to take it off your hands

Great truck. I always enjoy your content and knowledge. I know you had a MP 260 and are very experienced in milling flooring, I have a lot of southern yellow pine and access to a LT 40, Kiln and a MP260. Do you think I could make some quality flooring and T and G lumber without an edger and planner to prep the wood before using the MP 260. If so, would it be smart to run the lumber through the MP 260 to get S4S and then set up the side cutter for T and G or flooring and run it through again? Last question, would you mill the lumber 1/8 or more bigger on all 4 side to allow for shrinkage and planning. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Have you had any issues where you needed to contact Woodmizer customer support? Have they been responsive and helpful? Thanks...great video!

Awesome Man glad you are loving your new setup and happy with it. The setup looks very cool and that was a nice load of wood. Tell your Pop's i said Hi please for me. Have a good one Cory and always be safe.
