Nice video Tyler...now we know what you do in your spare time. Deer will love you! You seem to have an inexhaustible supply of red Cedar to mill. I wish we had some around here. Keep pumping them out.
Is it your mill I remember you posting about on the Foresty Forum when you were getting started? Good on you for building up a business....lots of hard work but you've found a market. We don't have the quality of cedar in Iowa that you have but I do like sawing it. Like that you uproot the trees too...gets rid of all those stumps that would last many years.
Did your 70 come with the roller that's up front in place of the flip-out log bunk that was on the LT35? Do you see it getting a lot of use, like it's worth putting one on? I have an older 70. Thanks!
Yes it comes with that roller. It definitely rolls when boards come off but I don’t see it being a necessity that it rolls. The only problem I see with the flip out bunk is a square edge, the bottom board when pulling them back if it warps down any it would probably just hit the front of the flip out bunk and push it back in.
Yeah I’ve thought about it a lot. I’d love to have one but we cut mainly smaller logs so we aren’t getting many seconds per log. We have the logs sorted out per size of boards we cut so we are as efficient as possible with each log
@@pattonwoodworks I use Timberwolf cobalt blades from Sulfolk Machinery. They last a lot longer. We are in the business of milling lumber not sharpening blades so I want ones that last.
Nice job

@@pattonwoodworks Exactly! I don't drag back the bottom boats for that reason. I'll have to ask WM if mine can be retro'd. Thanks!
Any videos of you uprooting and pushing over trees with your 75-2?
With a good sized order such as that, I wonder what you customer is building with that many nominal 2x6's?
We sell lots for decking and fencing in this size board. These were going to be for a fence and gardening planter boxes
Curious - how many hours on your 75-2 and what engine oil do you use?
We use Kubota engine oil. It has about 950 hours right now
Have you ever thought about getting an edger to speed up production?
Yeah I’ve thought about it a lot. I’d love to have one but we cut mainly smaller logs so we aren’t getting many seconds per log. We have the logs sorted out per size of boards we cut so we are as efficient as possible with each log
@@pattonwoodworks I thought about one to but I don't see it paying for itself milling cedar.
Where are you located? We're looking to place an order for red cedar for our projects in Michigan. Feel free to DM me. Thanks!
I’m in Missouri. Yeah just let me know what your needing if your wanting to come down to pick it up. Just give me a call or message me on Facebook
What blades do you use?
I use Kasco brand. They are in STL MO. I’m not super impressed with them but they are cheap and work just fine for cutting cedar
