Patent it before Wood mizer does
I am looking to Built one from different system I am seeing on utube yours is Very interesting...
Awesome video and design thanks for the upload 👍🏼
Good day, sir. I just found your channel and find it quite interesting. It seems to me like you’re trying to hurry and make a certain length of video, and some of us find that very annoying, we will sooner see you take your time and make a longer video, for the fact that you are a very interesting man I believe. We would like to see something of your catch on another video. It was great to see that you enjoy the fact of a granddaughter in your life. I myself have no grandchildren. Take care of sir and God bless I’ll keep watching. ✌️🇨🇦
Simple i like it
Neat idea. I like it very much.
Cool!
Really good idea!
If you'll leave boards stacked on top ea other you'll find the weight of the wood keeps the cuts more uniform/keeps blade from tryingto ride up.. I don't remove any boards until unit gets down to where I have to in order for it to clear.
I just received my metal to build my log Turner been trying to figure a way to make it Easter and maybe a little safer too. Your turner is hands down the best I have seen if you have the track for it and I do
watch the problem. it bounces off the rails. maybe you should also add rollers on the bottom to keep it on track.
Great idea! Definitely building this! Genius
Great idea!
Just living it up down south !
Well, here’s what I came up with. Works much better when I hook the right side, lol. I’m still learning. ruclips.net/video/j2_gnZpDzhw/видео.htmlfeature=shared
I too have a large beetle kill in central Louisiana . Great wood, just too much! I'm guessing that you submerge logs in an effort to preserve them. Great idea. I may do the same. Please elaborate on storage and retrieval process. Thanks. Great videos and subject matter.
Nice place! Nice family! Nice tree! Was wondering if we’re going to get a closer look at that rolling gantry crane. Possibly the build if you have that on video or stills ? Thanks ! 😊
It looks fairly lightweight, which I like. What is the thickness and dimensions of the metal you used?
Awesome setup! Will be putting one on my Oscar 230! How tall did you make it? 48"? Out of everything I've looked at past two months, it looks the easiest and prices out the cheapest by far
I welded a frame that would fit on my tractor and ordered casters from Hudson to match my mill tractor. Built it tall enough to clear the log and leave room for the winch on top. Put the battery, winch and solar panel on top. I going to post a detailed video soon of all the details. I should have built this years ago, it is a back and time saver. Post some pics when you get yours done and let me know how you like it. Good luck
Ordered my wheels, lol. I’m not much of a welder, but I have a lot of 4 x 4. Thought I might go with a triangular gantry crane design. I hope it works as good as what you have there. Fantastic video. Thanks for sharing your idea 0:02
Thank you and let me know how yours does for you.
Brilliant! We just built one with a winch from the idea. can’t thank you enough!
Thats awesome, please share a pic of yours
I like that log turner! The beauty is its simplicity. The commercial variety works but would be hard for us shade tree fabricators to make. You’ve got a good system pulled together. Respect. 🥸👍👀✅
THANK YOU. IT HAS BEEN A TIME AND BACK SAVER.
Wow goog job
THANK YOU, IT HAS BEEN A BACK AND TIME SAVER
I think I’d take that bark off right when the logs were on your forks. You handled them well.
I WILL DO THAT BEFORE I PUT THEM ON THE MILL DECK. THANK YOU
You got some nice sticks with good tight growth rings here in South Carolina are pines can have one to two inch growth rings.
Thank you, Right now i have more logs than I will be able to get to because of the IPS beetles. The next few loads, I will put them in my pond to give me time to mill them with my work.
Does this run off battery? How long does that last? How do you recharge it?
Yes, I have a 12v Marie battery and a solar charger. Since I only milled on the weekends, I’m not sure how long it will last, but I know i can use it all day without a problem.
Excellent design. Now cut those base timbers back some so theyre not in your way
Thank you. I poured a slab and cut them off even with the frame. Works well. Check out some of my other videos and see how it looks now. Still wanting to put a shed over it and a few other improvements.
Nice logs! Subscribed and will be tuning in. Happy holidays from the Syracuse area
Thank you and I’m going to try to post more. Just doing most of this without any help, so its takes me a little more time .
I wouldn’t mind seeing you fish a log out of the pond 😃
I WILL POST A VIDEO AFTER THE NEW YEAR. WE HAVE A TRIP PLANNED FOR THE HOLIDAYS. THANK YOU
Your log turning gantry is what I want for my new mill. Most of my logs are large enough to need it. What dimensions would you recommend using for the frame?
Thank you. Mine is about 5 feet tall and same width as my tract. The length is about 30 inches and did this length so that it would be stable with a big log. I have a long tract so room was not a problem. I put a 3500 pound Harbor Freight winch on it with a 12V battery and a solar panel. The winch and battery are mounted on the top as such. I purchased the casters from Hudson to match my sawmill head and tractor. It was the best upgrade yet besides getting my tract up in the air so I don’t have to bend down so low.
Thats nice i would like to close it in and live in it.
Thank you and I plan on milling some lumber to build a camp by a pond I have on another place. Problem is my mind outruns my body with these projects, but I enjoy milling and building things with the lumber.
Your outdoor kitchen is why i brought a sawmill you cannot by timbers like that at the box stores so you have to find a sawmill that will mill them for you and it would cost an arm and a leg but i have the timber just needed to get a sawmill.@@joewhitaker7343
Your log turner seems to be the way to go for a manual mill. I just bought a SMG manual mill and am looking for a way to turn my bigger diameter logs. Would like some info on how you built yours. Looks like it gets pushed out of the way and brought right back when needed.
SINCE I HAVE HAD A FEW QUESTIONS ON HOW I BILT THE LOG TURNER, IM GOING TO POST A DETAILED VIDEO OF IT WITH DETAILS. YES, I JUST ROLL IT DOWN THE TRACT ONCE THE LOGS ARE TURNED. I HAVE A VERY LONG TRACT, SO ROOM IS NO PROBLEM. I WILL TRY TO GET THE VIDEO UP IN A COUPLE OF DAYS.
Yah, you need some practice. Looks like a beautiful patio building, BUT, hard to tell with it bouncing so bad. Reshoot it and add some info. If your going to brag about a log turner, show us the whole thing, not just a couple of wheels and a hook. Excellent idea, just need to see all of it
KINDA NEW TO THIS AND I WILL TRY NOT TO MOVE THE CAMERA NEXT TIME. I THINK I HAVE A BETTER VIDEO POSTED OF THE WHOLE LOG TURNER BUT WILL MAKE ANOTHER ONE. IT SURE HAS BEEN A BACK SAVER FOR ME. THANK YOU
Kinda Narky critical Steve. Where’s your professional rendition?
@hitied1 reread it, nothing sparky about it. The man asked for comments and or suggestions. Even gave him credit for excellent idea. Maybe you're just to sensitive to read comments.
Wow very clever design!
Thank you. It has been a time and back saver. I should have done this years ago.
I am going to steel your log turning idea i am setting up an Oscer 336 with 36 feet of track i will use four feet to park the head and four feet to park the log turner. i should be able to cut a twenty eight to thirty foot beam. thanks for your help.
You will love it. I have a 43 foot tract and I have milled a 34 foot long beam. I will show a video of the project I did with some long beams. It has been a back saver on the heavy logs. Post a video when you get it done.
I'm gonna copy is to and also use it to unload large slabs and sticker em as I go
Do you debark the logs before you put them in the pond. thanks
No, but when they have been stored in the pond, the bark comes off most of the time before it gets to the mill.
Silly question, how do you get the logs out of the pond?
What kind of hook are you using? I’ve been searching for hooks to use for a similar setup but can’t seem to find anything.
I just took a one inch rod, I heated it and bent it and then put on sharp point on it. I’m sure any machine shop could make you one.
I have a hudson homesteader. Are you interested in making (and Selling) one of your log turners?
Shipping would probably make it unaffordable. I would get make one myself or show it to a machine shop and have them build it for you and put a 3500 pound winch on it.
Nice! Simple and effective.
Nice !!!
Nice design, looks a heavy log to turn by ✋️ hand.
Great invention.
good job.. I don't know your status now so take no offense when I say there's been so good likkir made by your family. or somebody in your family build engines, hauled it or both.
What is the height of this You did an awesome job on this
I think its 5 foot tall and about 34 inches wide. I can turn up to a 30 inch log with it. My mill is a 30 inch.
You need to make more videos.
I will try to do better. I usually work by myself so its a little harder to do both. Thanks for asking,
I agree. Super solution to a back breaking problem especially 40' beams.
Ok, Here is another video and I will try to put more videos out there. Just got a new camera, so be patient as I learn.
Great 💪💪👍👍👍👍👍👍
Where did you get the wheels for this?
I them from Hudson Forest equipment in New York. I have a Hudson sawmill and they match my mill track.
Simple and effective.
Nice!
Work smarter not harder , clever design , REGARDS Ziggy Canada ,best wishes
