Good milling class Em & Jade.....thanks!
👍🧙♂️🐺🤙
Respect... I haven't said this before but I respect the heck out of you Emerald. Being able to let your equipment "talk" to you is a gift not a lot of people possess, or even attempt. Good job!
Bumble bee photo bomb! Great video also. 🙂
This gives a new meaning to the term, *_"Nailed It."_*
These videos are like watching a real educational documentary series. I love her.
Dear Ms. Emerald, Your presentation skills have dramatically improved since you started on YT! What a pleasure it is to see you mature so quickly on YT. You definitely have a bright future in video media.
miss emerald works on self improvements. and direction of the momma and.papa and grand pa boss persons. in the hebrew tradition we are in a sheva period and sheva means bringing in the winter wheat to harvest for making our daily. this happens end of may north of the equator and the harvest is winter wheat. south of equator is harvesting summer wheat. on the equator there is heat and jungle and way to hot for me.
Em...You really do a great job with marketing and with your overall knowledge regarding lumbering process. Everyone from the Boss, the Boss's boss, all the way down to whom ever is the lowest on the totempole does a great job. Keep up the good work. Be well, stay safe.
Great shot of that Bee hovering in front of the lens, 6:43,...Jade nerves of steel. Most lades I know would be squealing and jumping away!
As far as hearing the blade hit metal……. Nailed it! Great video!
I heard the blade when it hit the nails. I also wanted to say that you are ABSOLUTELY right when you say "listen to the machine". A good operator of ANY machine can tell problems or issues just by listening to the machine and the different noises it makes during operation.
From one sawyer to another, I still hit like before video loads. LOL
Love what you and family are doing ;)
Keep the videos up
My dad had a woodmizzer mill much like the one you’re using and I can relate to what you said. You can hear it when the blade hits metal and if it hurts the blade bad enough the blade will dig deep and take you out of level. It’s hard work but I use to enjoy it. Sawing , throwing slabs, staking lumber, and you even reminded me of filling the cooling reservoir on top. Thanks for the memories.
Yep. Heard the damage occurring Em. Great job you two girls. Time to have fun! The weekend is here! Have a great one LCLY! 👍👍👍👍👍
Yup, I definitely heard both strikes sounding like they were fairly close together. Thanks for videoing and sharing ladies, have a great weekend! TTFN
I don't know how I got here but this is a great channel and I hope my kids work as hard as they do.
you ladies are by far the best youtube out there
I can only imagine the bloopers on this video bet it was alot of laughter making it take care
Great job explaining the problem and demonstrating the consequences.
When I had a Woodmizer mill, I bought a metal detector to check the logs before sawing.
I was impressed by the words used / language in the explaination. Gave an air of authority / knowledge. U earned the up-vote today. (2.4K on 5.9K views in 2 hours, but most just love you for being you.)
I like how the bee photobombed the shoot. Nice to see that Jade didn't panic.
probably couldn't help itself . . . attracted to the camera cause Jade's so *_sweet_* 💖
No problem hearing that Have ever had blade snap in half (just wandering)Love your videos ❤📹👍😉 Have a great weekend everyone
By golly
You nailed it !
👍🇨🇦😉
Great video as always learning something new. I was distracted by the bumble bee flying in the frame at around 6:40 pretty cool I’m sure others caught that.
Your content is great. I could hear the sound that you were talking about. I look forward to your content.
Emerald, I could hear you hit both nails. Great job with the video!
informative presentation and I like the hummingbird fly bye in the video clip
I’m learning so much about the world of woodworking, trees and everything that’s associated with trees.
You’re absolutely amazingly beautiful….thanks 🌲🌳🌴🍀 ❤
@4:20 Oh yeah, definitely nailed it!
Ouch said the blade! I used to see logs with barbed wire embedded. Trees once were used as fence posts. One less hole to dig. Fine job, Em!
It was easy to hear the difference between wood and metal. In the past I've used both a wood cutting and metal cutting bandsaws so it was easy to tell the difference.
for those who have used both metal and wood working. it takes lots of knowledge. and it is a fairly exacting science.
i am not an expert in any way. i had a job in a precision work holding machine shop and we cut 4 inch steel with a grob bandsaw with an air powered feed. it had a air sprayed liquid coolant and lubrication system.
dry cutting and dull blades caused heat and as emerald said trouble with a capital T like mister T. though i am mid sixties or slightly north of midpoint. i was as young as miss emerald. i was a greenhorn. and my boss was as old as my mom so that made him about 21 years older as some would say almost a generation gap which is about 25 years. my departed boss was hermann a german born american who served valiantly in the official korean war 1950-1953. though our cold war has lasted through today. there is some connection that i still am researching. my departed dad served in the royal dutch military as a private first class foot soldier in the commando corp. he went in for his mandatory one year conscripted service to the dutch queen Juliana in 1952-1953. dad like most veterans know that war is hell. most will not talk about it unless specifically asked. and those who brag about have severe mental and disrespect issues that we see in all the mass shootings.
taking a human life for any reason breaks the 6th of the 10 commandments. thou shall not kill. i need to add that it is human life. as humans kill some plants and animals for food. taking a human life even in self defense causes severe cases of hidden and unhidden post traumatic stress disorder. and sometimes it takes time to understand and that is after they pass on.
the boss man had a difficult time a while with someone taking their own life. and i have empathy for the boss mans feeling. we as humans have a lot to learn about what is life and what is n ot life and ptsd.
i better stop on my soap box tangential. thoughts . i trust in god like the boss man. death is final for life on this earth. it happens senselessly in war, murder, mass or individual shootings, knifing,, poisoning suicide and only god knows what other ways. like boss man i would love to know how to prevent senseless death. i know god knows and we would love to know. for the dead it is to late and we have to try to heal and with god's guidance we can prolong the life of someone on the road to dead. we all are on a road to death. no one gets out of life on earth alive unless we blast off to the moon. oops neil armstrong who put his boot prints on the moon came back to earth before god called him to home called eternity. yet allen buzz light year is still alive to tell a story or two for now. today may 12, 2023.
and from a guy who can never be a mother. happy mothers day to my mom where ever you maybe. stay alive until god calls you. and when god calls you will be reunited with daddy and your first born american son who got his angel wings in 2021. say hello to my life partner my wife of 20 years she got her angel wings on 9-11-2019 at 8:10 am due to a black widower bite that went all wrong. i am at peace that god took her home. now is time for me to heal and carry on for the rest of my live. i love you mom. i really do. you had my fetus state in your womb until it was time for me to breathe earth air by myself. you feed me mother's milk on tap from your breasts. you raised me right. love you with every beat of my heart. i still love you more will all my heart and mortal soul. happy mothers day to my mom and all mothers and everyone because we all had mothers.
Whoa 😳
Whoa is right....Not exactly the place for this
You’re very good at explaining in an accessible and entertaining way, nice channel
Good illustration and explanation about the effects of hitting a piece of metal on the blades and the machine. What I really wanted to know
and you likely do not know the answer." How does a nail or a piece of metal get embedded in the log in the forest"?
I heard it and I have hit a nail with my shop bandsaw and the damage you showed us is spot on. Keep up the great work you all do.
To Em, In my shop we cut steel, braSS, CAST IRON AND ALUMINUM in our band saw, but oue blades are 11 to 16 teeth per inch, get your self a 15 tooth by-metal, runn at normal speed, it will cut slower but will go throught the nails all day and still work
WELL DONE LADYS😊😊😊
I'd prefer ladies rare to medium rare 😄😅😂🤣
I enjoyed the bumblebee flying thru the shot
Great informative video Em. I need to catch up on some episodes.
your voice is soo mesmerising along with a fab presentation,thanks from Derbyshire England xx
Local blacksmiths/knife makers might be interested in your trashed blades. They can be forge welded into very nice knives.
Really enjoy watching your videos on your sawmill operation and your willingness to share your experience and knowledge of the industry. I heard the nail strikes. I would think ban saw blades might be more susceptible to breaking versus the mills with the circular blades. Thanks for taking the time to share!
It was a humming bird😂
I’ve been running a woodmizer for 35 years , lots of backyard wood screws will destroy the blade but nails not so bad . Have fixed hundreds.
St George island in FL was used for target practice by the military before and during WW2, so the local sawmill won't take any trees from there, still there are stories of hitting large cal bullets occasionally.
You are such a joy to watch! Your knowledge of wood cutting is amazing. Being a wood worker for about 😊5 years, I have
Learned a lot watching your channel. Keep up the good work!,
You can't miss the sound when you hit metal. Are you still buying Woodmizer blades? That was a great video ladies thank you.👍♥️♥️
Have you checked into metal detectors that mount on the saw---it scans on the return stroke as it rakes off the cut board---Jerry D
Retired saw filer here. Right on. The worst are glass insulators. The saw usually takes a dive and blows up. Sometimes you would saw right through a bullet and keep on sawing. The best object I ever saw was a double bitted axe that the saw hit where the axe handle used to be and filled the hole with as many saw tips as you could cram in there.
Yeah....lead bullets saw easily! Now barb wire....not so much!
Reminds me of stories from the Great Northwest when tree huggers were “spiking” trees in order to kill lumberjacks with chain saws.
Nice touch with the surprise guest appearance (hummingbird).
Yep, heard them. I once contracted a local mill to cut a log of pasture cherry. They hit two old porcelain electric fence insulators and went through three blades, which they charged me for. I feel your pain.
Oh well, I got a great table out of it.
BTW, doesnt the mountain look all green and fresh!
I found ceramic electric fence insulators in a dead black locust tree one time. They were totally grown over with bark, & actually inside the tree. ceramic is usually harder than steel, & my chain did not play well with them. I guess that some old time farmer didn't feel like setting fence posts, & just ran his wire between trees growing in the approximate area he wanted to cordon off.
I just stumbled on a video about the Eastonmade axis wood splitter from B&F outdoors.They received there new splitter with a hydro lock engine was full of water 💦. Just thought I would share this with you.
The hummingbird at the point you are talking about the blade diving down was cool
The blade, "ouch that hurt".
You do great! Thank you for all the information, and video work. Love seeing you in my feed ❤
Yes I did hear both. Doing carpenter work before carbide tip blades a nail would destroy saw blades.
A very informative video Emerald, and thank you for making it very detailed on the aspects of your presentation! Definitely heard the impact on the first nail at 3:45 and the second impact at 3:47! Nice touch having (I believe) the Wood Bee make an appearance at 6:43-6:45 and coming back for an encore at 7::03-7:10! You, Jade, and your entire family are amazing workers and a great family example to follow! Keep Safe & Healthy!!!
Hummingbird 😂
@@paulbatts9585 definitely not a hummingbird! Did a stop-motion and magnification at 6:44 with a full side-view! Body was very rounded with 3 segments; plus, there was no pointed beak, body wasn’t streamlined, didn’t see 2 little legs and feet, and no tail! Also, believe they normally fan their tail out wide when they are hovering in place. Thanks for the reply, hi from Texas…
Thanks for sharing your knowledge, Emerald! You look so pretty 😍
Hi Emerald, Is that a new tat on your left arm? Couldn't quite make out what it is. Great video, and thanks for including the bee (and not flinching)!
Gotta love the heavy metal sound
Not a dull video.
bada *_BOOM_* . . . definitely a cut above . . . bada *_BING_* . . . this time, I think Emerald and Jade really nailed it . . . bada *_BOOM_* . . . anyone else here willing to risk splinters for the chance to work with Emerald and Jade? I know I wood . . . bada *_BING_* . . . thank you . . . and don't forget to tip your saw mill operators and swampers . . . my name's Paul Bunonion, I'm your host and I'll be here all *_weak_* . . . bada *_BOOM_*
Good one! Well done
Wow!
A nail cut length wise!
There’s no other way I could think of to do that.
The wood held it, while the blade shaved it!
😮
Great information. I'm just suggesting. How about a metal detection device? Some professional sawyers have them. There hand held. This device saves wear & tear on thier blades. Also. Wear & tear on thier sawmills. Good luck. 😊😉👍❤️💜⚘️🙏
As always, entertaining and informative.
The thing about metal cutting tools is the feed rate and blade speed need to slowed way down for a wood cutting saw blade to cut metal. Or you can get a metal cutting saw blade to cut wood.
I had an uncle who used to sit under a shade tree after dinner and resharpen damaged saw blades. He had made tools to reset bent teeth and to guide his file at the proper angles to resharpen them. No one could make restoring damaged saw blades profitable, but it gave him something to occupy his time.
@@_Boregard_Rippy_ You could make for more money per hour back then just picking up soda bottles and turning them in for the deposit refund than sharpening saws. I'd recommend mowing lawns these days, as wide open fields bring $75 per acre and 1/4-acre lots bring $25 to $30.
Now, back when there were manufacturing plants all across America a man could actually earn a decent living sharpening drills, end mills, and saw blades. Sadly, those days are behind us and will not return until it becomes impractical to transport goods from foreign countries.
@@_Boregard_Rippy_ There are two Islamic houses of worship within 15 miles of my home where the "imam" of record lives. They claim immunity from property taxes, too. Somehow they are getting away with it. To each his own.
I clearly heard both also. Can you tell us on the Sunday review the total number of blades ruined cutting all those logs please?
Emerald, I definitely heard that. I do fine woodworking with a bandsaw, but I buy from good hardwood dealers. I have never hit a nail because they carefully control their incoming wood. However, when cutting firewood I have definitely hit nails with my chainsaw. It sucks when it happens. Not so much of a waste when your shortest chainsaw hits it, but when my 4' chainsaw hits it and the chain cannot be reasonably be sharpened, I am pissed. Most of the time you can notice it from the noise and sparks, but sometimes you don't. Since this incident with a chainsaw, I am careful about accepting "free" wood to cut when the person tells me there used to be a barbed wire fence or tree fort in the tree I am cutting.
Yikes, heard that awful sound.. Used to run a wood miser and dreaded that sound. A good demo!
Certainly could hear when you hit the 2 nails. And it looked like the blade took a little dip.
I am sure it would cost a lot but having a Carbide Tipped blade on hand if you think the log has nails.
Watching you handle those blades without gloves and in shorts makes nervous. The lumberyard I worked at had 8" blades and a sharpening room next to the saw. Great video
Great video!!!! and camera angles!!!!
Great video I love all of your videos,,, love the bumblebee! Great job girls
The first blade you showed is easily rehappened on the WoodMizer blade sharpener and setter. It takes time but not that much on their new sharpeners. The second blade is gone. I have sharpened nd set many WoodMizer blades.
Happy Weekend! 🙏🏻.
Do they make carbide blades for that saw? A carbide blade would cut through steel without much damage, and go longer between sharpenings under no nail hitting use.
You look amazing. Obviously the weather is getting warm where you are. We are just going into our winter. We got our first snow on the hills yesterday. And no it's not a good idea to cut nails. My boys don't mind cutting nails. Actually They don't even know they've done it and they just keep going until the blade is toast
Hummingbird cameo at 6:45 😃 cool 😎👍♥️
Ok maybe 🤔 a carpenter bee 🐝😄
We have just had our first milling session and I dread the inevitable nail etc. Heard both strikes which matched what I expected. We have a metal detector but still learning how to use it but hopefully will improve with time. Many thanks the video , as always every one is another welcome lesson to beginners. Mind the bumble bee!
Lloyd , Wales UK.
Very good and I did hear both contacts with metal. Your channel is always interesting and I'm sure your reader count will increase as people become aware.
I heard it! You said to listen for the blade hitting metal and there it was. I wear hearing aids with my headphones and damn if I didn't hear it! Wow young lady, you are amazing. And a hot redhead too..
loved the bumble bee
Does it help to use a metal detector on the log first? It seemed some of those nails were pretty deep.
Yes. Years ago we were taking out an old telephone lead that used to feed Newhalem Seattle city light communication building. We dropped off the poles at a local buzz saw mill this all guy he was up in his 80s still running it did all of his own blade sharpening. The poles that we dropped off were old growth red cedar not one not in any of it. We scanned the poles really well. Somehow we missed a 5/8 bolt that buzz saw cut right through it my foreman just about had a heart attack. When the old guy told him about what had happened. Earl the ForMen offered to pay for the damages the guy said there wasn’t any damage cut right through it.
Our girl Emerald,
🐝The 🐝Bumbled🐝 Bee's 🐝Queen!🐝
Yup..enjoy getting the knowledge of logging ✌️
the bee at 6:42 in the shot was pretty cool
Yes i heard both of them.
Howdy. I like your work ethic dear. Saw mill work is fun.
What do you do after you’ve cut a nail and you can obviously see there is more nail penetrating an unknown depth into the uncut wood? Some nails can have a 3.5-4 inch shank…do you somehow remove the remaining metal or cut a 4 x 4 or 6 x 6 beam or whatever you can from the remaining log?
Did you ever think about getting a couple metal detectors not like the ones they use in the airport but like the ones at the beachcombers use that you can scandi login as it's on the lower lift.. also they make a small handheld one.. weirdest people scared some of the ones that I've seen on RUclips and I as well as on TV just scan through rocks and stuff so you should be okay there because it should scan through your log... That might eliminate some of your problem there .. just a suggestion you put out good video so have a nice day take care .. God bless you and your family
I built my sawmill myself and I have cut threw up to a 3/8" lag bolt and the damage to the blade was awful to say the least. It can take so much of the profit margin out of the equation after cutting lumber like that
I am surprised that no one has thought to put a metal detecting sensor head on the sawmill that will automatically stop the mill when metal is detected. Even using the wand that the TSA uses would probably help.
Photo bombed by a bumble bee @6:40 !
We do a quick check with a metal detector before any milling. The savings in time and blade sharpening / replacement outweighs the cost of a decent detector and the 3 or 4 minutes it takes to check the logs before the cut.
On big logs we cant-hook 'em over 1/4 turns and check each quarter. Depends on the quality of your detector and how deep it'll go. Even a cheap one from B_g5 sporting goods will do a decent job and find almost, if not all the buried nastiness.
Great sawmill, those are the best…👍
Good video, thanks.
Yes I heard the blade clip the metal at about 3.43 and later on I observed a ginormous bee circling the mill It looked huge. Thanks Jade & Emerald for the excellent and informative video, have a great weekend and don't let the bees attack and carry you away...lol
Looking foreword to the Sunday recap!
Looked like a carpenter bee(or Wood Bee), to me. They attack wood buildings like the sawmill eaves.
I thought it was a hummingbird, wasn't it? Means nice weather is coming.
@@Frenchy101 On looking more closely I believe you are correct it is a humming bird! Good eye!
I wonder if you could use a metal saw blade when you know you are going to be cutting through metal. It might mean slower cutting, but at least it wouldn't be destroying a blade. And: What about removing the metal? EX: If it's a nail, and you find it with your metal detector, can you drill it out? Maybe with a core drill that cuts the wood all around the metal and comes out like taking a core sample. Just thinking out loud. ben/ michigan
The nails you hit at 3:45, look to be square or rectangular not round nails. What did they look like to you? If rectangular, they were cut nails made of hardened steel to be used in concrete other solid materials. Hitting 2 common nails like a 16 penny nail wouldn't do that kind of damage to your blade. Love your videos.
I’ve not hit any metal yet but my mill is pretty new, I’m sure I’ll find some soon.
