  • This video I unbox and assemble the WoodLand HM122 band saw Mill. We also mill some logs into lumber. I cover my first impressions of build quality and options in this review video.
    The WoodLand bandsaw mill is built much better then I thought it would be, especially at its price point. Lots of good features like auto blade lube when you throttle the mill up, self locking winch and easy to read saw scales. I built a DIY bandsaw mill years ago but honestly at this price it's hard to beat when you weigh out your time invested in designing & building one. Perfect for custom milled lumber, woodworking to small cabin projects.

    Mike, you really have the knack to explain and review useful tools that expand one’s capabilities. Such as reminding the viewers that you need equipment to move the log and get it up on the mill. No sense buying more mill than your logs or equipment need/can use. All the best to you 👍👍😎👍👍

  • @afos3462
    @afos3462 6 месяцев назад +1

    Good advice there bud, I was an ex carpenter, joiner and machinist (re saw mainly) for furniture etc. Think what you want to do and make a plan, so you can either buy what you need or buy the components and ask the experts on the net if you are not sure. Never forgetting not to run until can walk properly as missing bits will not grow back. Keep safe all, from us in the UK.

    I have a cousin that tried to build a sawmill, but he didn't use a truck axle for his drive wheel. He used a CV axle, and the wheel moved when he would start to cut. The blade guides came off a stripped down x-ray machine, and were used for rotation of the head. The bearings were well made, and worked on the blade very nicely. He wound up selling it, and I met the new owner at a lumber store, while he was shopping for supplies.

    A friend and I went in on a hm22 mill and opted for the trailer. I'm 6' 4" and working on the ground is hard on my back. We also have the luxury of a tractor to place logs on the mill. It's been a great mill for the last three years and we've put just 60 hrs on it so far. I have found that the blade tightening system is superb. made marks on it in the beginning and I've checked it with the torque wrench each spring and no adjustment necessary.. The legs on the trailer have kind of small pads so we put flat blocks under them on setup and it remains pretty stable. I'm glad to hear your positive review with your experience with other mills.

    • @Mikefestiva
      @Mikefestiva  11 месяцев назад

      Right on! The trailer would have been nice, I kind of wish I ordered that when I bought the mill. I’m thinking of building a simple trailer for mine at some point. I’m glad you have been happy with your Woodland mill. Thanks for comment and checking out my video 😊👍

    Been watching since your bandsaw mill build years ago. Always wanted to build one but just don't have the metalworking skills. Just bought the HM122 a couple weeks ago. Saw this video about halfway through my assembly! Really pleased with it. Got the bed extension and 9.5 engine too. Love your videos. Teaching myself to weld.

    I used the metal crate to build a rolling miter saw stand. They have really improved the 122 since I got mine, I immediately upgraded mine to have the top angled piece using tubing. Also…. The cheap (Or it was when I got it) hf or northern trailer kit…. I chopped the axle and narrowed it and used the rest of the components of the trailer kit and two long straight square tubes to make a trailer for it. With your Langmuir you could do it faster too…. The 9.5 is the way. And extension was the way too. So I have a 20ft trailer that is integral to the rails …. 20 feet of track means you can reliably get 16 foot lumber. Anyway as long as you have a really flat piece of concrete you can safely align everything and tack it to the tubing and trailer stuff. Just don’t forget to strap the saw head down to the track for trailing it around

    • @Mikefestiva

    Looks like a smart bit of kit, they clearly thought about their end user and fostering brand loyalty. One thing that caught my was the tube to store the instruction manual affixed to the mill, on of those details that shows they considered how people use things.

    • @Mikefestiva
      @Mikefestiva  Год назад

      They definitely put a lot of thought into this mill, the instructions in that tube are really well written, there’s a lot of info on tracking and setting the guides.

    Always wondered, now I know, about the quality and origin of the materials used in this Woodland Mills saw ( and other equipment that these folks offer ) (( all the metric sized hardware, it kind of tells you where it came from, AND, apparently this one's worth the money ))
    Bear in mind folks, that there`s nothing at all wrong with metric sized equipment, it`s just that a lot of people in the US and elsewhere, are not quite yet used to it.

    Mike, great review. I just picked up a used HM122. I would love to see more on the track you built for the gantry head and your tractor... I'm considering that same thing.

    Harbor Freight saw comes in the same metal angle iron crate, actually heavier than what your WM came in. Both the WM and HF are great lower end saws.

    That's really cool Mike, it's a total bargin price and in some sense it is very logical to go and just buy one rather then try to sort out all the kinks and stuff building your own. I ended up paying about 1k for my mill, but the cheapest mill i could buy locally was about 5k. This looks like a very good mill for ~3k, wish we had the same options here in Estonia then you guys have there in the States, looks like you have about atleast 70% more of everything.

      Thanks for checking out my new video Ants! As you know there was a lot of work involved in designing and building our mills.
      I still really enjoyed the process of it all and that DIY mill actually started my YT channel 👍
      That’s how I found your channel originally, we built our mills around the same time.
      I was really surprised with the build quality of this mill especially for the price.
      Take care buddy 😊

      It seems like the whole of Europe region has this issue with availability and affordability. If you want to buy common tools to do a very simple job, you have to spend a pile of money.😮
      But if wanted to do equivalent projects like Mike you would like to spend several thousand to do only the basics.😊

    This looks like an option.... I have some small Walnut trees that I have wanted to slab, will get one of these when I have finished the house remodel.

    Sweet Mike. I still like your homemade but this is cool to do what your after with it. Cut yourself some log stops the same square size out of hardwood and use them when cutting some stuff like edging boards. If you accidentally hit it no big deal. And can also draw lines on it with black marker like you said. Thanks for the video. Good luck. 👍

    Considering how I thought your home-made sawmill was absolutely badass. It has to be a great mill for you to be talking up this new mill. I have done my research on all the sawmills out there. And there is nothing close to the price versus what all you get out of this mill.

    Ive never bought a sawmill, but I have had some large crates delivered and EVERY TIME the crate looks intact upon arrival and I sign off on it as being damage free; and then when I take it apart I realize the crate was damaged but the trucker had put more packaging around the outside to hide the damage.

    One of the selling points of the HM122 is its affordability, making it accessible for small-scale woodworkers, hobbyists, and those looking for a cost-effective milling solution. The HM122 is designed to be easily portable, allowing users to bring the mill to the location of the logs rather than transporting logs to a fixed mill.

    Just the fact it doesn't have booger welds all over is a good sign, but little things like a drain plug extension says alot. You wouldn't have ever gotten that on a Crapsmen 😆
    Great detailed video. One day, I WILL NEED one of these 🤞

    Nice to see another sawmill video 😊 Just curious how much that timber would cost you if you bought it? I know it needs to season but I would imagine it's a chunk of the investment repaid just in the first few logs.

    Are you going to build some kind of canopy to keep most of the weather off the mill head? Adam @ Hometown Acres had one that works well for him.

    Love you and your brother's content! Just out there making it happen. Off topic, BT200X front brake thought. Do you see a reason why it wouldn't work to make a circular bolt flange and weld it to the center spindle of the front rim to facilitate a generic disc brake kit be able to bolt up to that flange?🤔
