I've run a Woodmizer LT40HD sawmill for 35 years. I would recommend taking the extra time hand bombing the finished boards onto the forklift rather than manipulating the forks under the complete finished pile to be lifted off. Trust me, eventually you will hit and bend the rail and knock everything out of alignment, a very expensive fix. Nice video.
Great operation and teamwork. If I could make a suggestion, have someone scrape off the fresh cut lumber and sticker it to prevent moulding from the sawdust trapped between them. It seems like you have enough man power there to keep up with the mill. Great video.
Wow.... that that's a pretty elaborate chainsaw! That thing opens up a lot of options and opportunities for you. You can cut all your own corral lumber, and lumber for buildings. Sell some? Looks like it's pretty mobile, so you can go out and do custom lumber cutting. Looks like a good investment in your area where everyone has all kinds of trees that can be cut up. So is it going to be Gierok Farms and Lumber Co. now?
Do you sell your wood by the board foot. by the liner foot. What spices are available. What is your drying time. Are you thinking about a kiln for drying. Do you have a moisture gage? Just asking.
How does the mill work in the farm economics? I see you cut for personal use for things like Masons deer blinds, but is custom milling a revenue stream?
I'm curious, what do you think is the payback time for your sawmill? I know that it's value is in what you actually sell, you can use the lumber yourself. But if you price the savings over what you would otherwise have to buy, and figure what you can sell, how soon will it pay you back? I have trees, and I have SOME time on weekends, and the equipment to get trees to a place for milling. Definitely interested in something like that. Great video, and great explanation of the set up!👍👍
Must feel great getting eveything from the land the way you guys do. This is just great old fashioned wholesome stuff, thanks for posting
Sure nice sitting in my nice warm e-z chair watching you working in the snow and cold!?! Great video!! Thanks 😊.
Thanks for posting
Sure enjoy your posts! 😊
Kind a quiet behind the camera today,thanks to everyone!!!
Always a quality video from the Farm. I was lucky enough to receive one of your hats as a Christmas present from my Daughters.
What a great investment esp now with high prices for lumber!!!
WOW.THERES A LOT TO SETTING UP THE SAW MILL.THANKS FOR SHAIRING.❤

Nice! That's quite the hunk of equipment!
Pretty Slick operation 👍🏾
Awesome sawmill. Thanks for another great video.
Nice looking lumber
Real nice mill.
That's a really nice sawmill guys
That mill is neat. Anyone that owns any forest land can saw their own lumber.
such a awesome way to live
Holy smoke well that's a sawmill!!!! congrats greetings from Alberta
Looks like fun
I like your lumber wagon. Looks very strong and certainly better than making a pile on the ground.
Happy New Year Gieroks…can’t wait to see what 2025 has in store for us❤

George hope you are feeling well😊😊😊😊sounds like you have a cold🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Great video, nice sawmill. BTW the tension gage is called a tensionometer...really, thats what it is called
Do you have space to permanently install the sawmill under a covered shed to keep it out of the weather? Blessings to all of you and Happy New Year.
Great video. A lot of nice lumber. The long ones must have been twenty foot long
nice
Will you guys sell or use the wood

Any thoughts of building a smokehouse with the scraps?
