Mr. Ed is all man for sure. I just finished sawing a white oak with a couple 2 inch slabs. Ed picks up and walks off with them. Those 2 inch slabs are HEAVY !!
Of all the hundreds of sawmilling videos on RUclips, this one is my favorite. That is some seriously beautiful, high-quality lumber (but you knew that already!).
I like that you talk your way through each cut and explain what you are thinking and doing. We can all appreciate the hard work mentally and physically.👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦😁
HI MARK U said it U don't know what a log looks like on the inside until U saw it it not often U get a log that has book match boards 😉 when U it is very pretty each board looks the same it's the sunshine 😊 the icing on the cake 🎂 OMG 1 16 2O23
Mark and Eddie, I love your video's and look forward to seeing each one. I have an idea for your cab to make it more sound proof, you have said in the past that it has acrylic windows, so just add a small spacer on the outside, maybe 3/16" and add another layer of acrylic sheet. That will cut the noise down and give you more protection. Also, your splitter behind the blade needs to be higher and curved slightly to the inside of the cut to make each board fall away from saw helping Eddie to keep his fingers intact.
Love watching your videos and seeing how the mill is progressing. I am from the UK and its interesting to see the differences in how we do things. Over here FAS is the grade for first and second quality timber, the first and second boards cut from the outside are considered the lowest grade because they have so much sapwood, the grain angle is so low causing the board to be really unstable and the least attractive grain.
That was some beautiful white oak you were sawing there! I have many happy memories of making furniture from US White Oak, it is a lovely wood to work with. I really like watching your videos, thanks for posting👍
Always fascinating to see the yield out of some of these logs you saw. I was a lifelong woodworker, millworker and I have made products out of all kinds of lumber species. Fun to see how it comes out of the sawmill.
Nice oak, Good sawing and it's been a long time since I could do much in a mill. Driving and operating takes a big toll but it sneaks up on you and you don't realize it till your almost killed. I'll watch the T.H.E Contest and grin while I'm watching. My back is hurting just thinking about it. Thanks Mark and Edwardo! The bus motor speaketh fluently and GBWYall!
That was some pretty white oak. Grade sawing will always have you searching for the best face, but it's the only way to get the good stuff. We've been watching for quite some time, and you guys have built a nice operation. Good to see some fellow PA guys doing well. Keep the great videos coming
Checking in from Southern California on the left coast. Those were a couple of big logs but you guys handled them with ease. Keep the videos coming because we all enjoy them.
Whew!! When you said you were going out to move that bark, then followed up with “don’t try this at home” my stomach knotted! Worked with a guy who used his hand to reach under a heavy suspended load, improperly set hook let go, buddy ended up with a pinch blister ( just barely got clear ), but oh so close.
Those were some nice logs! And pack two lunches when you work with THE Eddy Horvath! Two inch boards are heavy! I have been busy with school. Hopefully I will be done by June. Thanks for straightening out the Ohio flag. I always feel good when I see it in the video. Miss the two of you!
For me in 60 years of cutting wood,, there have been some tough woods,, but white oak is among the top. Installed many white oak floors,, a good use for white oak,, clear (often is) vertical grain (often is) but don't ever try to use it in a counter top or something that need a lot of sanding. White oak can dull sandpaper.
hi there what a nice log . I think i heard mother Ma coy say she could whip Eddy not sure but ? thanks for all the shout outs . i need all the help i can get
Great Monday bonus video, Mark. It's good to see a log like that turned into lumber and not firewood. I'm glad you finally fixed that Ohio flag, too. Take care. Bill
When i worked at the Cabbagetree Creek hardwood Sawmill in Gippsland , Victoria , Australia we used old fish&chip grease from their big deepfrier's as there were no conveyer's to get the large Hardwood trees the the breaking down saw's , it was all done using spikes or tractor's . some of the lumber was about 25 ft in length & had a girth of 6 ft the breaking down saws were placed one above the other , & were powered by a large steam motor as these were easily repaired on our down day's , both breaking down saw's were like the one that you are using at your mill ,but never had removable teeth , a guy from Orbost came to us with replacement saw's every 3 days for the bigger saw's for the smaller ones it was once every two weeks , the smaller saw's were used in much the same way Eddie use's his for cutting firewood or fence palings ...
One day I will take a trip down there. I was born over in Danville. I live in Milford Ct. now. I am a retired Arborist. Now I am a woodworker, babysitter, Miss Daisy driver, politically incorrect senior citizen. Keep your eyes open and your saw teeth set, saw on.
I get customers like that all the Time. I'll ask when do you need it? They will say yesterday. So I'll cut it that same day.. it sits for a week or maybe a month. Sometimes they don't come back.Think I'm gonna ask for half up front for now on. 100% agree with you on turning the log. Especially hardwood. To much stress in the wood. Plus it makes better lumber.
HI MARK U talk about seeing different logs U don't see much walnut it is pretty 2 even though the wood grain is darker U see that everyday either IVE seen 😉 4 wood not many walnut logs U could saw 4 lumber OMG 1 16 2O23
looks great timber, i am envious. i am off with my 230cc alaskan mill, salvage oak boarding, 9ft lengths in france , i couldn't resist at €35 for 2 nine foot trunks both burled! i would rather get them on my wood mizer but too difficult too get to
T.H.E BUS BOYS/MEN. Yes frickandjeep had me 😂 lol at the end of his vlog. YPU YOUNGINS Do what works, on your sawmills for you all. BTW, your Humility out shines your pride, DUE TO THE CUSTOMER SERVICE YOU PROVIDE YOUR CLIENTS ON THE MILLING OF TIMBER TO LUMBER. GOD BLESS !
You need a shit-hook, I’ve got 3, one in the back of my truck, one in the shop and one in the house, there is always shit you can’t reach. Broom handle, drill a hole in the end and bend and JB weld a hook shaped piece of round metal stock. Easy to hang out of the way.
Your farm grade we call 1 common (econo lumber). Then there is 2 common (rustic) and three common(fire wood). We sell FAS but with the price of lumber rising we will be selling more econo lumber. White oak is expensive because we saw quarter sawn lumber for making barrel staves and heads for whiskey barrels. We sell the staves and heads to coopers.
Mark i used to love going to the local mill and id have them save me some of that so called "worthless low grade heart wood" Especially if it was any of the Oak species or Hickory. Because I owned and pulled a 53' 4 axle 50 ton RGN commonly called a "Carry All" And what i didn't use, My buddies dad that owns several semi truck Heavy Recovery wreckers always would need large diameter blocking for recovery work. I always had at least 10, 8"x8"x 24" pieces to block up large excavators and other heavy equipment. Id get down in Houston and those guys would beg me for those good heavy hard wood 8x8 blocks like that.
I forgot to add where we used the old fish & Chip grease , we used to cake it on the timber runner's where the log from the yard were put then the Michigan Tractor would push them down to where the stop's were set , then the yard worker's would push them into & onto the sled , from there they were turned manually by two guys , for the bigger logs more people were used as well as chains ...
your are right the butt white oak is prized for Verner . i was a faller in Adams villa Tennessee we only cut white oak trees , buy would come in every month and pick out the ones they wanted then shipped to Japan . the rest we cut in to board
HI MARK the 1 that wanted all 2 inch boards U should let him turn logs by hand w a cant hook all day that all old school that 😉😜😀😄😎😆 was the way it was done back in the day OMG 5 13 2O22
“Hardwoods, you have to rotate the log” finally someone on RUclips who’s sawmill and knows what they’re doing. THANK YOU!
Mr. Ed is all man for sure. I just finished sawing a white oak with a couple 2 inch slabs. Ed picks up and walks off with them. Those 2 inch slabs are HEAVY !!
That is some gorgeous wood. I watch these every night to unwind from the day and fall asleep. I love your videos. They are so relaxing!
Of all the hundreds of sawmilling videos on RUclips, this one is my favorite. That is some seriously beautiful, high-quality lumber (but you knew that already!).
We love watching and learning as we bring an abandoned Belsaw back to life! Always get something from the videos. Thanks so much
I like that you talk your way through each cut and explain what you are thinking and doing. We can all appreciate the hard work mentally and physically.👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦😁
Thank you for the video. You know you are becoming a celebrity when other celebrities mimic you!
you two make my day. "just good ole boys never meanin no harm."
Another great video, guys !!

I love the sound effects of a drum roll for that first log to make its appearance. Lol. I know it's the machine warming up.

Nice job. Good looking lumber.

White oak grade lumber is truly gorgeous.
yes it is.
You say, Don't try this at home, well I have to say that pretty much where I try everything. I really enjoy the videos you put out thank you
I llove the education about logs I am getting, Thank y ou and keep up the great work.
Nice. Wouldn't Mr.John have loved to have had those !!🤠👍
Great video beautiful wood to can watch you saw for hours keep the videos coming for us to watch...
thanks Jimmy.
Love the channel guys--keep it up!!!!!! Greetings from UK.

dang that second log you cut up would surely made some beautiful bar tops and table tops and cupbards

WOW! That second log has some beautiful grain in it!
Hello from Oklahoma great videos thanks for posting these videos.
thanks for watching.
That second log was really beautiful.
Great video Mark and Eddie. Take care.
Good afternoon Mark and Eddie. Chilling from Jamaica 🇯🇲🇯🇲 and enjoying the video
good afternoon Lloyd.
White oak sure is nice.
The sawdust bin cam would be great.
That ole Detroit sounds good
Thanks both a great video two lovely fellas and what you see is what you get perfect as usual oh i spotted Edds flask in the background lol
I had to pause this and go look at Fricknjeep. That's hilarious. Glad you have a sense of humor, Mark.

Purdy wood 🪵 so that's what an in cab video looks like 👍👌
yes a good view of the log.
Good evening from the UK.
good evening Andrew.
I just wait for the NEW VLOGS. It truly assists' me to totally forget about what the politicians are doing in D.C and Nationwide. GOD BLESS.

As always great video and good tutorial
The timber is beautiful
Guys keep safe

Hi Tony , hope all is well.
@@markgalicic7788 still waiting on that flag ...... keep well buddy
Absolutely beautiful wood. There is a church in Aliquippa that has white oak pews.
That last log sure made some good lookin boards.
great video! thanks for sharing!
Very accurate milling, Bert
That ugly log still had some nice wavey grain. A few of those 1"x12"s would make some beautiful furniture.
These videos are oddly satisfying. I may have to subscribe!
Beautiful wood!
Hello from Florida, great video
thanks Rodney.
One day I will take a trip down there. I was born over in Danville. I live in Milford Ct. now. I am a retired Arborist. Now I am a woodworker, babysitter, Miss Daisy driver, politically incorrect senior citizen. Keep your eyes open and your saw teeth set, saw on.

Requesting an upfront payment, part of which is non-refundable, is a good business practice. Wrecking yards call it a storage fee.
HI MARK U talk about seeing different logs U don't see much walnut it is pretty 2 even though the wood grain is darker U see that everyday either IVE seen 😉 4 wood not many walnut logs U could saw 4 lumber OMG 1 16 2O23
oh my fricken GAWD!! John is comical!!!!
Wow that #2 log is mighty fine, just pretty and from here looks clear as a bell. I'll not bother ya again
looks great timber, i am envious.
i am off with my 230cc alaskan mill, salvage oak boarding, 9ft lengths in france , i couldn't resist at €35 for 2 nine foot trunks both burled! i would rather get them on my wood mizer but too difficult too get to
Do it every day. Work in a wood mill and we just got 2 in White Oak 16ft 730ft
Hum, I see that the loose screw holding the cab window finally vibrated loose and fell out. :-)
Bottom bolt on the right side of the cab front window.
Nice oak.

Good afternoon from SE Louisiana 3 May 21.
good afternoon Bill.
Love the hardwoods . Eddy needs to slow down a bit .I'm 68 plus and he can out work me in a second . Nice job men .
i know it is kinda off topic but do anybody know a good place to stream newly released series online ?
White Oak is great for boat building, if it hasn’t been mentioned.
That butt log would have been a great candidate for quarter sawing. I'd be interested in seeing how quarter sawing is done on a circle mill.
yes it would have , it's very hard to quarter saw on this mill.
Why do you back up so far after a cut is there a switch that won’t allow the thickness adjustment
Mark i used to love going to the local mill and id have them save me some of that so called "worthless low grade heart wood" Especially if it was any of the Oak species or Hickory.

How come some logs have numbers or letters on them 🤔
White oak fence boards, trailer deck boards etc bring $3.00 /bf green here. That stuff you said wasn't worth anything is money in the pocket.
Stopped by after seeing John video. If John is poking fun, I figured you'd be alright 👍

them white oak logs make for some purdy wood
Just wondering why turning the log upsets some people?
