  • We found an old Utilizer 3 point hitch sawmill designed to run on tractor pto. It was in a field grown over with weeds and vines, and in pieces. We managed to find the owner who said he was willing to part with it. After a few weeks of tinkering around with it we have it running again. We made it a stationary diesel powered mill.
    Part 2 is out now, with better cameras and much less shaking • Abandoned Sawmill Part...

    Good job ! At first it looked like a belsaw, but that has lots of better features, especially the carriage and dog system……..and you gave yourself room to work the edger… you know your stuff. Thanx

    @kurtsmith4657 Год назад +1

    Interesting machine, almost looks like a combination between a traditional Frick mill and a bench rack system. Might consider a poly carbonate shield between the blade/operator but you would have to design something that wouldn't encumber the operator. Met 2 different guys that have been hurt on them, one by flying shrapnel. Best Regards

    • @zuleamen
      @zuleamen  Год назад

      They can be dangerous for sure. Standing off center of the blade greatly reduces the risk of flying bits.

    Like your setup brother. Can't believe someone abandoned that baby. I'm in the process of reviving and upgrading my old belsaw. Installing a hydraulic motor to run the carriage spool. Belts aren't smooooth. Is that an excavator in the background? Have a 750jd myself.

    • @zuleamen
      @zuleamen  2 года назад

      That sounds like a cool project. Yes the excavator is a Yanmar zero clearance.

    Really nice set up! very impressed by how you have it so it flows no edging on main saw takes lots of time to do, what runs the carriage hydraulics or cable or where does power unit set

    • @zuleamen
      @zuleamen  2 года назад

      Hydraulic carriage. If you look on at the bottom of the sawmill on the ground there is a wooden box that runs along the floor. That wooden box covers the drive line that is running to the power unit. When you operate the mill you are standing between the mill, and the power unit.

    Nice work!! I like the modern sawdust collection system. The chain with paddles you see on old mills is pretty lame. How many hours of work to get it going 500hrs?

    • @zuleamen
      @zuleamen  2 года назад

      Getting it moved. Setting it up. Building the shed. Getting everything set and calibrated. I would say 250-350 hours.

      I had also never heard of a Utilizer. There doesn't seem to be a ton of information on them, but I have done some research. The info I found suggest they were They were manufactured in Scottsburg, Indiana around 1978.

    o machado e a motosserra (The Axe And The Chainsaw)
    eli silva & zé goiano
    composição: moacir dos santos / zé goiano
    o machado e a motosserra tiveram uma discussão
    motosserra diz que é orgulho da evolução
    machado pra mim já era pois vem do tempo de adão
    você agora só serve pra fazer calo na mão motosserra dá um ronco relou o dente no tronco já se vê o pau no chão
    a serra chamou o machado pra fazer uma porfia
    machado aceitou na hora e quando chegou o dia
    entraram junto no mato pra mostrar a serventia
    a motosserra roncava machado velho tinia
    e naquele matagal foi só cavaco de pau pó de serra que subia
    e esse grande duelo deste jeito é que termina
    na briga das ferramentas o machado é que domina
    motosserra parou cedo ali no tronco da quina
    machado seguiu cortando mata grossa e mata fina
    motosserra impotente rebentou sua corrente acabou a gasolina
    que isto sirva de exemplo para toda humanidade
    e você que é tão jovem tem que saber a verdade
    respeite bem os mais velhos não brinque com sua idade
    uma pessoa idosa também tem utilidade
    é um diamante valioso se não tivesse o idoso não teria mocidade
