Got some quality lumber.Great Job!!
Thank you! It is a nice machine for sure
Looks like you got the sawmill working great putting out some nice lumber.
It works awesome! Just got some nice pine delivered to start making the shelter for it
Nice video 👍.
I'm happy for you Aaron. It's like you achieved a milestone.
Keep the videos coming brother 🇺🇸
Thanks Gary! I’m hooked now can’t wait to mill more
That is a solid-looking rig! Nice video too!
Thanks I appreciate it. Well worth the effort!
Great job! Being able to produce your own lumber of any size and any species is really cool. Especially with the current lumber prices!
Yes in deed! I am hooked! The logs are stacking up and I got to get cutting👍🏻🍻
Looks like you are doing everything right there. HFE30 is my best selling sawmill. Good luck with you mill.
Thanks! It is a great piece of equipment. I am very pleased with it
Great to see it finally cutting some lumber
Me too! It’s a great reward
Nice job! Didn't hit the dogs or the knees with the blade, and didn't kick your blade off backing up over the can't😉 any questions arise feel free to contact us. 👍
Nope! I did take it slow . I was nervous making my first cut. And I did open the winch up and no grease in it. I greased everything checked everything. I’m hooked! Can’t wait to make more saw dust Saturday
@@Aaronzap15 sawmilling is like gold mining. When you open up the first log and see what's inside....nugget :) Then your hooked :)
Aaron! Nice job man! Congrats on the mill! I’m a bit late seeing this video but definitely looking forward to more!! 🍻🍻
Thanks Jake! Can’t wait to mill some more logs. Got to check out your new wood yard 👍🏻🍻
I just pulled the trigger and ordered a new hfe30.Mine will have the new aluminum lube tank that looks like a chrome muffler.Your video is answering lots of questions I have about my mill thar I've never seen yet.Thanks.Hope I win the goody box giveaway!!!
Good day Sir 🌞 Yes in deed a clean log is better for all the good reason that you mention Sir 👍 It must has been a very nervous first cut Sir ? Great cutting and many congratulation on your set up Sir and practice make perfect Sir 👍 and great new ending word ( saw you later 👍😊 ) Cheers 🍻👍
Ya I was nervous making my first cut. I went slow. Takes a little getting used to. Thanks bud take care🍻
@@Aaronzap15 HAve a great TGIF Sir Cheers !!!
Looks like a nice mill!
Thanks it is very easy to use! Hudson makes a nice product at a affordable price
That mill is awesome. You own a mill in a time when many people would love to own one. Great job, Aaron. Saw you later. WST
They are very hard to get right now. Many people are waiting to the fall for one. How’s the splitter coming?
@@Aaronzap15 It's coming. Only snag right now is the steel I need for the sorting table. It costs double and I didn't like the price before that! Should have it done soon. Thx for asking. WST
Very cool man. . Nice job on the vid. Brother.👍. Good Work , A+ , Aaron.
When are ya getting a sawmill Richy
@@dmalloy96 I’m still after a Dang Quad yet , Dave. How about that. 😂
Thanks Richy!
On the list for one of these… I have a BOAT load of tulip/yellow poplar and have plans to build a house… my state allows ungraded lumber (no inspection). I assume with this you can make 2x4’s 2x6’s etc etc.? I should note… not a huge house… 1900 square feet
It’s a well built machine and it’s simple to use. Going to have to mill allot of 2x’s to build a 1900sqft house . That would be awesome tho to have the pride that you did it . Good luck and mill on
@@Aaronzap15 yeah, I’m not under any time constraint… just going to get the housing plan/lumber pack and go to work.
462 right here NEW FRIENDS!
Welcome aboard!
When you watch this, is there anything you would have done differently if you got a redo?
I thought I did pretty good for my first log ever on the mill. What do you think I should have done differently?
@@Aaronzap15 I thought you did great for your first attempt.Happy no dogs were clipped. I have not used mine yet. Weather has found its winter grip.i may not be bold enough to post my first cut but will certainly share lessons learned. I have gained experience from watching you so I may do better than normal thanks to you.Please keep filming, your information comes across very clear and I appreciate it very much. I didn't see anything wrong, I just wondered if you had a feeling about some little thing that bugged you.Kepp makin sawdust man your great!!
@@ABBABEER the log dogs , motor Mount bracket and the hand crank are the only things I’m not to fond of. In the spring I’ll be changing the log dogs. Thanks for the nice comment
What are you using for the foundation under the rails?
It is on 12” steel I beams. I used a mag drill to drill holes through the rails and the beams. Put 3/4 galvanized all thread with nuts and lock washers to do final leveling. Been there for 3 years now and hasn’t moved a millimeter.
What did you think of the Hudson mill? Would really like to see a review of the mill.
I really like the mill. It’s easy to use, easy to fix if something breaks and it is very affordable. Biggest thing is making sure your track is level. I’ll do a 1 year review in the spring. Thanks for checking it out
@@Aaronzap15 thanks for the review. Your information is very helpful.
Like👍🤝🤝🤝
Thanks for watching!
Hi,
How did you level the mill and have you found the optimal track height? Thanks in advance for your answer.
Thanks for checking my vid out! I actually did a few videos before this one showing how I set and leveled the Tracks out. Check those videos out! I’m about 5 1/2 “ off the ground. Easy to load logs on and turn them. If you have anymore questions I’d be glad to answer
Can this machine cot a long 1m and more in diameter
The largest log I have cut on this machine was 37”. It was the max and had to turn it once first cut was made. I had to use my backhoe to turn and reset. The max width it will cut is 31 1/2” with the guides spread as far as they can. Hope it answered your question . If not let me know. The 37” was height cut at 30” width massive heavy red oak
@@Aaronzap15 what is the name of the machine that can cut 2m+ diameter logs
Taking some dirt off maybe. Indont think you need to debark like that, but it can't hurt I guess.
I'm no expert, maybe I'm wrong.
I’m no expert either but what I’ve heard is a lot of dirt and rocks are in bark and if stripped it will extend the life of the blade. Thanks for watching!
@@Aaronzap15 i can see that.
I have a Viel coming in the spring, I was told 3-4 hours and then it needs to be sharpened. Comes with 6 blades(bands), I included the sharpener and another 6 blades.
Thank you for your videos and for replying to my comment! Expensive equipment so I'm trying to learn as much as I can.
I appreciate it
Good luck! It’s very addicting. Your going to love it
Where’s the new video?!
