Hey friends I hope everyone is doing just great and that you enjoy the video. I am seeking assistance in regards to treating the milled lumber against wood insects. I have been seeing a ton of old house borers (i think this is what they are called) around my mill. Dont see damage on the wood but am wondering how i should go about protecting the lumber from infestation of all sorts and thought I would ask you guys what you would recommend doing. Thank you
Borax will stop mould and insects. Just mix with water and spray it on. Im sure youll find some videos about it on here... BTW i think i got the idea off a channel called "Surviving Ringworm" he lives off grid with his alaskan mill, does all sort of projects, you might get some ideas.
As an old one-armed chainsaw mill operator (I moved up to a bandsaw mill last year) I've found it just as cheap to buy a 2000lb 12v remote control winch for around $80 from Harbor Freight. You can operate it from your ATV or 12v lighter on your truck. I use half a section of a 24' aluminum ladder for my guide-rail and it always produced nice boards. Hope you have as much enjoyment making your own lumber as I have in my 67 years of living free. Love your channel and been with ya since the get-go!
What you need is a longer cable to go around your log then back up to your winch. Then what happens is as you pull the cable in it encircles the log and the log rolls up your ramp. Stay safe have fun God bless 🇨🇦✌️
Yeah weld a lug on the skidder. It will actually make it twice as easy to winch too as having the double length of cable has the same effect as pulleys.
Dude, you are a one man show. You do it all! It is very interesting watching you work, solving problems, staying focused and getting the work done. Even in my heyday as a younger man I do not think I could of done what you have done. I really enjoy your videos. Informative and just as important, very entertaining. Wish you the best! Luv your dogs. Keep them coming. David in Texas.
Sending peace and love your way again sir. I too supplement bar oil especially when cutting oak and maple around here in East Tennessee. Really nice lumber you've made. 👌
The best thing to happen to me in 33 years(besides my great family) was getting a band sawmill. I even decided to build a room here beside it... I live at my sawmill lol. Almost don't even want a cabin to live in anymore tbh
I cant even put into words how much I look forward to your videos. 😊 I dont see myself doing most of the stuff you do, but I sure love watching it!! Can't wait to see what you build with the lumber!! 🤘👍
Hey bud, good job building that. I usually mill with a 372XP, nice to see a 455 at work. As a tip from a fellow Canadian, I started using a narrower stihl chain. I also use skip chain and filed it similar to a Granberg milling chain. Think there is a video or 2 kicking around here. Speed of cut was night and day! Easier on the saw too. Give it a go and see for yourself.
I started out with a 455 Rancher and very quickly realized I needed a much bigger saw. Went with a 395XP & I also use a skip tooth ripping chain. I am usually sawing 30" plus doug fir though. I just use half of my extension ladder for a starting rail. If I would have known back then what the cost of lumber was going to do, I would have probably just spent that money on a band saw mill.
I am 66 and just bought a chainsaw mill for myself. You're video helped answered a lot of questions I had about putting it together and way to use it. A family member has downed trees in their woods from a storm. Can't see just letting them rot. Thanks for the information 👍.
Hey bud, just thought I'd mention a guy I've been watching for a couple years that has been milling a lot of lumber up in Michigan. His channel is called Ringworm and he's just a nut that's out in the woods having fun. But that being said he knows a lot about milling and the best chainsaw blades for milling. He's done a video on just which blades work best for what your doing. You might want to check him out. Good luck and happy milling.
Because I absolutely love cedar his property would be like winning the lotto!!!! It's funny though how after awhile watching his videos you start thinking of the cedar like it's just a piece of old pine lol....
BROTHER TRAPLINE, THAT WAS HECK OF A HUSTLE! DARN FINE OPERATION YA GOT SET UP THERE, AND LEARN BY DOING. KIKASS RAMP AND THE LUMBERS LOOKIN BITTCHEN! WELL DONE, FINE TUNE AS YA GO. CANT WAIT TO SEE THE NEXT VID, ENJOY THAT FINE WEATHER THERE, ITS THAT TIME OF YEAR TO BUST THEM JOBS OUT. PEACE!
After you start your cut drive a wedge into the end to help keep your bar from being pinched and getting hot. You are also laying on the log at times causing more friction.....square up all 4 side before cutting into boards will help too. fun times !
Man are you excited about your New Project: Very good move getting into the lumber mill! Your so full of life: great ideas coming together👍 Keep it up! Mill is looking good 👍 B Deacon Manitoba Canada 🇨🇦
Great video of basic chainsaw milling with a "get 'er done" attitude! You do a lot of great work with that basic mill and a 55cc Husky saw! Goes to show you if you are motivated and willing to put in the time and effort you don't need a lot of expensive equipment to mill decent lumber! Sealing your end grain cuts with some primer shows you are wise beyond your years!
I still marvel at your skill level for being so young. You must have some great mentors in your life. Looking forward to the new projects your going to tackle.
First project and already paid for the Saw mill and the chain saw with that much lumber cut! Great job. Always impressing us with your youth and talents!
This video is pretty damn right on my friend! I love what your doing with the bushcamp and I cannot wait to see this dream log home your going to build, I already know it’s going to be DEADLY!!!
I like the fact that you’re working up off the ground and that you’re stacking lumber on your trailer rather than just throwing it on the ground and picking it up again later. Ha
The bar will run quite a bit cooler with a sharp chain, I sharpen my chain every two tanks of fuel. Looking good, you are a hard worker and your channel is great. Cheers.
Looking great ! Good work on quitting the darts and trying to help your health. I would also consider wearing a respirator when grinding/ welding . Those wheels create a mean dust and flux core isn’t the most clean welding fumes out there . I like the 3m pink pancakes 2097 so they fit under your hood. Looking forward to next vid !
Congratulations Bud you are now a sawyer, nice set up for sure . The only advice I have with poplar is either nail her quick or strap it quick. I think getting it dry is the only preventative there is ,bugs need moisture in the wood . After it dries it gets very hard , this was a great episode thanks. If you can't get it under a roof then old tin on top seemed to hold a cooler temp for slower drying.
I just can hardly wait for your video's! This is awesome. You will have true size lumber too. Looking forward to see what your house plan looks like. Love it! J
Another good video, you can get a ripping chain that will make faster smoother cuts and will help with keeping the chain better oiled... It's well worth it...Starting on the narrower end of the log makes the math easier and less chance of making a mistake.. Good luck, stay safe and have fun...
Thank you so much for your videos. You are my favorite channel on here to watch and I learn so much. I'm moving soon to start my homestead on my 10.5 acre property already purchased and am going start building as you have next year. 👍 your awesome 👍
Buddy, you make me smile. As an old fart who's milled plenty of logs, I can't stress enough to look into a "ripping chain" as a few others have mentioned. Also an old extention ladder works great as your rails. A little dry lube and you'll shit at how much easier it cuts. You got balls of steel, keep it up!
How’d you like me to send you a quality winch? I enjoy your channel and would like to pay it forward. Key thing to remember is to stop and kiss the chain with a file every time you fill your tank. Good going Kyle.

Borax and water in a spray bottle
Borax and water, spray it on
TimBor or Bora Care, commercially sold. I use it for house treatments to protect against beetles and termites here in Florida. Good luck!
@@russellwatters5891 that's what I was going to say.
I have herd about them but they are rare. They do exist because I just finish watching one of his videos . The talented JACK OF ALL TRADES!!!
Ringworm Outdoors has a lot of useful info and cool content. He does everything with his chainsaw
Boom! Another video from our guy. Be safe buds.
To be young again . Thanks for the video .
Another great video buddy.👍
Great to cya, ALWAYS ON THE LOOKOUT!!
Perfect timing! I was itching for another Update! Deadly!
Kick ass, love the growth in knowledge

Drilling holes up the 2 rails and putting in stop blocks to prevent rollback would help too.
Lol @ "we" and "our"...... You are all doing a great job. Keep up the good work!
Great video. Thanks!

He knows. He says it in the video
Very simple. I see a Traplines video I hit like! Great stuff, keep it continue!!!
Love your channel from quebec keep it up
Young man You know How to make an old Canadian Hillbilly feller proud to be Canadian!!! Keep up with The Good work it does pay off.
I saw you install a sink with a chain saw, I knew you would have no problem with this project.😉
My GOODNESS you're Canadian! Fantastic video young man!!

Smart move, with prices as they are you’re saving big cash! I’m loving what your doing👍
Get your self a rip chain for that bar, you will be glad you did
Cant wait for the cabin build
I cant even put into words how much I look forward to your videos. 😊 I dont see myself doing most of the stuff you do, but I sure love watching it!! Can't wait to see what you build with the lumber!! 🤘👍
You're making it look easy
Beauty
Love watching people learn and produce and grow . You are the perfect example !

We need more young men like you in this world! Lumber looks great 👍🏻 Nice video 🪵 Thank you :)
keep er up love the videos and attitude towards work life and logs!
I am 66 and just bought a chainsaw mill for myself. You're video helped answered a lot of questions I had about putting it together and way to use it. A family member has downed trees in their woods from a storm. Can't see just letting them rot. Thanks for the information 👍.
Awesome awesome, I love it 👊🏻
Bro, you got skills. ‘Nuff said.
That sounds like fun…you’ll be able to take full credit for every shape and form of the timber in your new buildings.
That really is a good work station it will save your back so you can handle bigger logs without getting hurt.

Yes he is definitely great at it.
He is a lucky guy to have all that cedar. It's a lot easier to mill than real hardwoods too.
Because I absolutely love cedar his property would be like winning the lotto!!!! It's funny though how after awhile watching his videos you start thinking of the cedar like it's just a piece of old pine lol....
@@brucecoron928 I'm sure it's got it's plus'/cons, probably a bit buggy in a cedar swamp.
Ol Ringworm is a super cool and realistic fella,
Thankyou,great program , hello from Alberta . Peace fellow babies.
Sweet. That sawmill will hopefully come in handy for a ton of stuff. Excited to see what you do with it!

A man that can do that kind of accurate angular jointery with a chainsaw deserves respect! I could watch this guy all day!
Thank you Kyle 👋 appreciate you , hope you're doing well my friend, stay safe and take care 🙏 ✌️

NICE!!! a new video to go with my dinner!!!
Atta boy ! I just bought a portable band mill , lotta fun building lumber for sure !,,,
Good job buddy, from a fellow chainsaw miller from BC.
Very cool set up!
It’s so nice to c u so excited about something again. Loved the video and keep them coming.
your pretty awesome kid!
Looking great ! Good work on quitting the darts and trying to help your health. I would also consider wearing a respirator when grinding/ welding . Those wheels create a mean dust and flux core isn’t the most clean welding fumes out there . I like the 3m pink pancakes 2097 so they fit under your hood. Looking forward to next vid !
Hey sweetie. Wow, you amaze me every single time you design and create something. Awesome job. Beautiful pieces of wood you cut.❤️😉
Yeah it's right on keep her coming thanks for sharing
Great video as usual ☺️👍🏼
May I also suggest a hand planer. I think it would be beneficial when you come time to do your building. Stay safe. Have fun and God bless. 🇨🇦✌️
very interesting!
What a great little tool👍
Great job !!!
Looking for some nice projects to come out this year. Just be safe remember safety first joy later 💯💯💯👍🏽
Nice work. Great video.
36:53 Deadly 👌
Great work!!
good to see ya.
Another beauty video! Thanks.....
You could add "step" to your ramps to help hold your logs in place while loading onto the great work station you built. Good Job Friend.
Pine Tar and Linseed oil to treat your lumber, you will get great colors out of the wood grain as well with the poplar
Congratulations Bud you are now a sawyer, nice set up for sure . The only advice I have with poplar is either nail her quick or strap it quick.
I think getting it dry is the only preventative there is ,bugs need moisture in the wood . After it dries it gets very hard , this was a great episode thanks. If you can't get it under a roof then old tin on top seemed to hold a cooler temp for slower drying.
One of your best videos brother!!!😃👍🇺🇸🍺
Pretty dad gum clever. Good job young man. God bless you. (Old guy from Arkansas)🇺🇸
Man I'm excited about seeing what u build with your OWN milled lumber I know that's gotta be a good feeling. I see a full size mill coming!😆
I just can hardly wait for your video's! This is awesome. You will have true size lumber too. Looking forward to see what your house plan looks like. Love it! J
NICE!!!

Impressive, a man of many talent’s
Love watching!
