    great video, a couple of tips,1) DONT connect hydraulic lines while the engine is running, if the control gets nudged, full pressure is at the fitting, WHILE the plug in the hose is opening the leak proof valve, and you CANT see a high pressure leak, like steam in a pipe, it can cut you or cause blood poisoning!! 2) don't haul a log by your muscles alone, look at OHS videos for loggers, they use a log turner, a pole with a barb on the end, looks like a c-spanner wrench, it adds 4 or 5 ft of leverage, and keeps you clear if the log starts rolling out of control, OR use an engine hoist, or block and tackle, it saves back and leg muscle injuries.

    I was an interior trim carpenter. Back in the days when mitre saw blades were so expensive it was cheaper to have them sharpened than replace them, I found that spraying the blades with oven cleaner would clean the resin off and make them cut like a new blade - which I could do a couple times before needing to resharpen.

    For lubricant we used straight diesel fuel at our mill cutting heartpine beams down for flooring and it worked awesome it's surprising cause the sparks you'd think would ignite the fuel but never done not one time when I worked there nor before or after and all u need is a drip rate applied and it worked wonders never had an issue with sap build up on our blades ever

    • @FlorentHenry
      @FlorentHenry 2 года назад

      Diesel is pretty bad at self-igniting (it requires to be at least 50°C and often more). Friction can heat up the mix close to that temp but it obviously depends on how warm ambient temperature is. I wouldn't recommend sawing above 35°C ambient temp.

    The milling was quite nice. The lubrication sounds fine. If the tension of the blade is good you could consider to saw slower as the blade seems to dive while you're pushing the saw. the Larch doesn't make it easier... Looking forward to more milling 😁

    No!!! I am not tired of that Outfit!!

    However, you make the other Outfit look Great too! Steve is a lucky man!!
    Suggestion on your Sawmill; Have some log stop tubes welded on the loading side of the sawmill and add log clamps to the other side of the mill.
    After you make your 1st cut you can then roll the log towards you without having to continually slide it across the bed. You can move the log stops from side to opposite side. This will also have the blade entering the log on a clean surface ( no bark) which should extend the life of the blade. Possibly help prevent gum buildup too. I have never seen this utilized on any videos and I don’t know why?
    There’s possibly a problem with this suggestion but I can’t think of one.

After he bonded with us He would have a complete meltdown anytime we leave him alone, all he does is cry continuously, he has extreme amount of anxiety anytime we leave him alone. When I first got him He hated men and especially if someone wore a ball cap on their head. He would only gravitate to the girls he avoided me like the plague so I took his leash and tied him to my hip and wouldn't let him near the girls the first week we had him and after that he knew I wasn't going to harm him he's been fine with me since. He's still not a normal dog whatsoever he has to endure when he was a young pup. Our vet says He's got special needs and basically that describes him to a tee but I know one thing He sure does Love my wife and I . He sticks to us like glue now..he never leaves our sides.

    Michelle, "a thousand kisses a day!" In my next life I'm gonna come back as a dog and be named "Clyde"! Great video just watching you do what you do with at the saw mill. I can see the cabin coming together piece by piece. Looking forward to seeing future episodes regarding that build. Lenny is looking very good. Thanks for Sharing!

    Am I the only one here for the sawmill?
    When you have many logs to mill but, in no rush for the lumber, mill the slabs, set the cants aside, then change blades. Keep the blade just for remove the bark slabs.
    Better yet add a debarker blade (what we all long for, lol).

    Cotton picker spindle cleaner also works as well in the tank for the build up. Sometimes I get a lot of buildup from sawing pine . Really bad lives. I put about a double shot glass in 5 gallons of water.

    9:28 I just ended a 20-year career as a saw filer in a sawmill. We called the effect in your wood "Washboarding." This happens just before the saw blade starts to "snake" through the lumber. Blades gumming up can be a real problem. Years ago, we used kerosene as a lubricant on one of our blades, but it stunk and was a constant fire hazard.

    • @Snarksneeze
      @Snarksneeze 2 года назад +1

      I don't know much about saw mills other than to hear my uncle talk about it back in the day. Basically, something needs to clean the resin off the blade, and it just so happens that most stuff that can do that tends to be flameable.

    • @ericcartrette6118
      @ericcartrette6118 2 года назад +1

      @@Snarksneeze That's pretty much it. There is a fairly new product in the industry now that is basically a vegetable oil type product. We know it as Lubie. The smell is not bad at all, and it is one of the least flammable products for saw lube. But I wouldn't foresee buying it for a portable sawmill.
