My grandfather owned several sawmills from 1903-1953. My father said during the Great Depression , that. after the trees cut down , the kids would use pick axes and mules to dig the stumps and on walnut they would trim the roots off and sell them to be made into pistol grips and any other variety was burned for firewood. They wasted nothing.
Your family business is a truly honorable one that does not exploit trees. Some of those narrow trails remind me of when horses were used to drag felled trees to a waiting wagon.
In 1962, I was in 4th grade. It was my first year playing tackle football. My shoulder pads were made from compressed sawdust bound in glue and then painted. In croquet, the balls were also made from compressed sawdust.
I really appreciate your content and humor. The bloopers were awesome. Remember open mouth smiles are worth their weight in gold keep on smiling ladies.
Bark bread, was often made during times of food scarcity in scandinavia. The inner bark, or cambium, was dried, ground into flour, and mixed with regular flour to extend supplies.
I applaud what I think makes your best video ever contender list. It's original, thoughtful, well researched, and presented in an informative delightful presentation given equally from each sister. It's that natural great personalities and interplay of talking so "naturally", high marks from me, keep it up
Great Video! you two young ladies are amazing both smarts and talents (easy on eyes too hehe), really impressed with the work ethics and skills / knowledge. Congrads to parents on these two wowza great job. sure they will be successful in future with sawmill and lumber yard.
Thank you for the educational video on cellulose. With my background in chemistry I knew they processed wood pulp into many forms of cellulose and cellulose gum. I just didn't realize all the products it went into. And the fabric is super neat! I appreciate the time you put into your content.
And still, we need cellulose to function properly due to shapeing of our stool. It is not a poison. It will not impact you badly. Actually we need cellulose to be healthy.
It's rather interesting how they make it. They usually don't bother with sawdust but rather just small chipped wood. They then add some water and acids and pressure cook a huge vat for half a day. This removes the lignin from the wood. Lignin is kind of like natures glue. They can then drain the slurry and remove the water and use the lignin as a fuel. All that remains is cellulose and some natural color which they then bleach and filter away. Finally they dry and package it. It has to be further processed chemically for uses in food such as turning it into a powder and dissolving in water.
Got a unusual site note for you. Somewhere around the mid-eighteen-hundreds some CA Redwood seeds found their way to England, and they took root and thrived. Somewhere in England there are some not quite two-hundred-year-old old Redwood forests. Apparently the abundance of english rainfall caused the trees to decide that they liked it over there.
There's a ten(?) year old western where Gene Hackman sends someone into town to buy "sanitary paper. And get me the good stuff, I don't want no splinters in it."
A great line int the movie “Wagons EAST” Simpleton walks into a book store and asks..”I need a big ass book” Book seller shows him a book.. He rips out a couple of pages.. heads out towards the outhouse.. “gotta test it before I buy it”
I'm a label reader. I like to know what's going into my body. I generally don't buy grated parmesan. I buy the solid wedge of cheese and grate it myself. Tastes a lot better also.
Wood shreds for pet bedding, sap from rubber trees, turpentine from pine trees, maple syrup is sap, fruit trees for fruit and wood, and lacquer for Japanese lacquerware is also a sap. The Pacific Yew tree's bark is used in research for cancer treating drugs, and also an antimicrobial can be made from birch bark. Inside your mattress and living room furniture are many species of wood. So many, may, many uses for wood
I live in New England where at one point it was only 30% forested and is now 70%. I'm right now looking at some, agreed small but, lumberable trees that may not have been here 40 years ago and were definitely farmland 70 years ago. Trees are an amazing resource.
You'll actually find wood pulp in dog food, cheap dog food. I remember my mother, taking a bag of it back to the store and showing the store manager the wood pulp that was in the dog food . I think the name was Chuck wagon
Speaking of Parm cheese, i used to always buy Kraft but recently switched to a different brand that doesnt contain cellulose powder. It tastes much better.
Excellent video ladies. In some cases where sawdust was added to food, specifically bread, it was not necessary out of greed but rather during hard times like wartime in Germany.
Thank you for bringing this little known topic out into the open for people to absorb and learn from. Wood is in so many things these days. It's is toothpicks, lumber, cardboard, paper, sculptures, carvings, picture frames, candleholders, coasters, bookends, photo frames, birdhouses, planter boxes, tables, chairs, window frames, boats, ladders, fences, corals, teeth, Pirate peg legs, just to name a few every day items.
Great chat ladies . Always great to hear from you both. The camblum layer from birch tree does taste that great tho it waa used in native amwrican soups in hard winters. Birch and maple both can be trapped as well. Love maple sugar taste of the sap. Anazon sells the taps. You 2 sure try some amd let me know what you think
Cork is also from Portugal. It is an ancient process and completely sustainable. Once the bark is strip the trees are a beautiful orange. The bark is stripped in several alternating years in order to allow it to grow back I also have a question as an Architect: do you structurally grade your lumber and comply with the building codes? Do you provide any sort of certifications for someone like me to determine structural values? Thanks
for cellulose production, and for paper production, you could replace wood with hemp, hemp grows faster, and can be uses for a lot of things including fuel
Back in the 60's my mother would occasionally send me to the local butcher shop in our neighborhood to buy cubesteaks for supper. The floor behind the butcher's case was always covered about 1/8" high with sawdust. I always wondered why.
Wow, congratulations Emerald on reaching 200k subscribers!!! I found your channel back in early 2022 while YouTubin' around the world while stuck at home in COVID lock down. I've stayed because you and Jade are so fun, cool and real. Thank you for inviting the world to 'hang out' with you in rural Pennsylvania.
my parents both worked in a paper mill in a nearby town that used pulp to create a lot of paper products. That's actually where they met. My grandfather actually lost his fingers when he got them caught in one of the machines.
Congratulations on 200K subscribers. Team Emerald and Jade are the most extraordinary girls on RUclips. Natural beauties without 5 inch long colorful painted fingernails. They work diligently in the family business. I love it. It's a pleasure to support this channel. Hopefully you'll be at 500K soon.
I've seen this on package labels but never questioned the source. This was a really informative video. Thanks! I noticed that y'all also mentioned carrageenan is in ice cream. That comes from seaweed.
Chewing gum. The powder or white tuff you see on it, it’s powdered granite. Rock dust. It’s obtained from granite grinding mills where it’s taken down to size for end uses tile, countertops, shower enclosures etc. marble dust is also used. I wonder if it tastes better. Both are also used in concrete manufacturing. Carmine a brilliant red food coloring is made from a “Cochineal” bug, it’s a scale insect. It takes approx 40,000 bugs to make 1 lb of it. They grow the bugs just to make it. Imagine being a bug farmer.
you stated what saw dust was used for in a lot of products.while jade stated some thing about the trees and nature. produce h2o . i love your channel, thank you for sharing your channel with us ......all of us. through out lycoming county pa.
What Emerald was trying to describe are "witness trees". Basically trees that have bore witness to historical events. There are still a lot of trees alive today from the Civil War era that have bullets embedded in them...
A lot of company's use sawdust a few companies are using it for making pellets for pellet stoves here in Ireland and a lot of Butchers years ago used fine sawdust in beef burgers and Sausage's and we have Cork Oak grown here and have a county Cork in southern Ireland
@@scottsoper It is used as a filler mixed with other high protein feed so as to keep the cattle satisfied while feeding less and still achieving the same end result!
The first mill I worked at had a flour mill. They would take sawdust and keep grinding it until it was powder. Your right, it was used in many, many different products.
Hi girls! A great video! But there's still so much more about the trees. What about rubber? That's also harvested from trees. And what about new findings? Like that trees have a certain form of consciousness, that they can "feel" and communicate with each other via roots connected with mycelium, etc. etc.
Good topic ladies! (Worthwhile comparing strength of fast V slow grown Ring-porous hardwood eg Ash) Palm oil unfortunately has led to much de-forestation of virgin forest, replaced with that mono-culture. Keep up the great work - it is much appreciated.
Cotton is almost pure cellulose, and lint from cotton spinning is used to make Rayon. It is also used to make nitrocellulose for lacquer and explosives. The only alternative to wood as a starting point for organic chemistry is petroleum which is fossilized plankton, and coal which is fossilized wood. So fossil fuels also go back to plants.
My grandfather owned several sawmills from 1903-1953.

I agree my uncles used to dig up Black Walnut root for the same thing .
Wood turners love walnut burl found in stumps.
I love jade, she's adorable 💜
She’s perfect 😍

Congrats on 200k subscribers you definably earn it with your hard work and your efforts to make useful content for us to watch. Keep up the good work!
Cellulose is put in grated parmesan cheese so it won't clump up, and leaves a kind of grit on your fingers.
... fork, plate and teeth lol
granted. but you don't need 8% cellulose for just that. I believe the majority of it goes to being a filler for profit.
You should buy parm from a large wheel and shred your own. That stuff doesn't belong in cheese.
@@TheAgentAssassin Sadly in rural kansas where I live , without a car, no one carries the real deal wheel
Jade is so beautiful 😍
mom and boss u have 2 beautiful , hard working , intelligent ladies
Thank you for a good spiritual talk about trees, they’re a living thing just as we are only in another realm!
Jade steals my heart every time.....

Isn't the world a better place knowing they are out there somewhere blessed we are
Thanks!
Nothing better than to hike a few miles into the mountain set and listen to nature
Nice to hear you differentiate between clear cutting and select harvesting. You have a good opearation going there and hope you prosper.

I think the name was Chuck wagon
In Russia they still use sawdust in the bread they make and it tastes really good.Its called Bark Bread.
It's used in the grated cheese to keep it from clumping. Not to worry, sawdust is good fiber and healthy for your intestines.
At 7:39 , a beautiful screen saver .
Speaking of Parm cheese, i used to always buy Kraft but recently switched to a different brand that doesnt contain cellulose powder. It tastes much better.

Willow tree bark contains salicylic acid. Aspirin
The Indians originally used willow bark as an aspirin
@@zactillett9820 I know deer and elk love willow leaves and small branches. They keep my tree trimmed.
Grate job, wow so much knowledge we girls shered 😊
You guys are a blessing to mankind
Great chat ladies . Always great to hear from you both. The camblum layer from birch tree does taste that great tho it waa used in native amwrican soups in hard winters.

Hey, 200k subs..wow, good job!
❤ that was a fantastic video. You two are great.
Interesting conversation. Love Jade too!
Don't forget about the inner bark of the Sri Lankan cinnamon tree, love that ground up.

Lignin left over from paper making is used for all sorts of things, as a binder for fertilizer to smoke flavor and the basis for synthetic vanilla.
There was an OAK tree in the UK that lived over 1,000 years and west coast Redwoods are over 2,200 years old

I have seen saw dust used in cow feed at feedlots for a filler!
Isn't that counter productive? Saw dust is not going to put the meat on the cow that one wants I wouldn't think.
Here in feedlot country the use of sawdust is quite common in blending cattle feed. Google it
@@scottsoper It is used as a filler mixed with other high protein feed so as to keep the cattle satisfied while feeding less and still achieving the same end result!
I went through an sfi class about 3years ago and the instructor said that the forest in Pennsylvania are maturing fast then us loggers are cutting it.

As wood is used in many things that people don’t realize so is petroleum and cement.
Sawdust in ice cream is something I have never heard of. That facial expression at the end was unexpected🙂. (Hi from Belarus. Harry Davidson).
