Watching your videos makes me homesick for the country. I have been living in towns and cities for 30 years now. I hope that next year I can be in the country and the blessings that country life brings.
That blade certainly appeared to cut extremely well. You certainly appeared very happy with it at that time. Admittedly that was 4 years ago & you have changed probably a few times now. Great video thanks Nathan. Cheers, Don from South Australia.
I had woodmizer come down and work on my mill about a month ago and they gave me one of those 747 blades to try I was very impressed. Think I may buy a few more to have on hand
All your attention to detail on camera placement was time well spent. We don't miss out on anything. Of course editing is also key, and another area where care really paid off. Best of luck.
I so enjoy watching saw mills in action. With your knowledge and expertise it is so neat just to see beautiful lumber come out of these old logs. 👍👍👍❤️
I would strongly recommend that you try a couple German made carbide tipped inch and a half blade...they cut through nails and still make clean cut lumber. Cuts more board feet before resharpening. I know they cost more, but they cut MORE before changing...up to 3 or 4 times more.
Looks like the blade cut great. Cooks Saw have been making blades like this for years. You'll notice that when you hit nails or any metal, it will wipe the tooth tips out. No way to fix them. Nice video.
looks like you found the perfect blade there Nathan. that thing cuts as smooth as a hot knife through butter on a august afternoon. hey to everyone from me n crazy ol tommy the cat.
Nathan, that new saw blade flies thru that log.. like a hot knife thru butter! Keep up the good work with your content choice the Oak boards your cutting out of the log are premium lumber by my recogning.
Wow Nathan, that blade does wonders. I noticed that it seems far more saw dust comes out of the shoot than before. It leaves a great finish. Thanks Kindly! DaveyJO in Pa.
I have a lt15 what is a good blade for that mill. I will be cutting pine, white oak, red oak, and some hickory. When I bought the mill they suggested a 10 degree blade.
One bad thing about making what looks like beautiful figure of that oak into a timber frame post would be that your curiosity about if the perfection ran all the way through!
That blade must be real special, I noticed the saw dust at discharge coming out like grain out the augers of a combine. Nice looking lumber Nathan, I love watching you mill and your explanation
I think your idea of leveling the top of the log with big taper will only transfer the issue when you rotate 180 degrees. So a diameter of 18 to 25 inches would require the small diameter to be raised approximately 4 inches. Or solve the issue by orienting the pith on both ends an equal distance from the bunks
Damn, I want those slabs! There’s a few hundred dollars of clear oak to be salvaged there. I was surprised the sap wood showed no rot for having been on the ground so long. Must’ve been laying on good drainage. Woodmizer really hypes these blades. I tried one on the LT15 and it’s nice but not worth the extra $ imo.
You choose the speed of the saw? I know the technology exists for measuring resistance of the cut and having the speed automatically chosen....of course more expensive saw. Also, automatic metal detecting could be built in - stop the saw when metal in wood detected.
Do you have an air flow shutter powered by a fan that blows air outside to remove the diesel exhaust? An installation like that would normally have another unpowered shutter facing inwards to bring in fresh air. If you don't I'd recommend a 36 inch fan with the same size for fresh air. Cheers!!!!
Brother that blade cut really good. That lumber should be made into nice projects, too nice for beam material. First Black Oak I've ever seen that is some beautiful stuff.
New to owning a mill. Why did you raise your tow boards to make a level first cut? Then flip the log over and take all the taper off in your second cut. Why not take half the taper in the first cut and the remaining on the other side?
the debarker is a wider carbide tipped saw that basically creates a clean trough in front of the main blade. It just clears out on the side the blade enters the log. the grit and dirt going through the kerf of the log with the blade is what dulls it quickly.
Hey bud, Dewayne from Corryton, Knox County here. Those blades look awesome! I bet they would be terrific on my EX Boardwalk 40 that hasn’t arrived yet ? Since I’m only 1 1/2 hrs away , do you ever allow any visitation on a Saturday? Thanks.
I just watched a video on this topic. No the residual saw dust gets trapped in between the slabs and provides a strong cushion against the pinching effect.
You are probably right. Was building boxes for a company and sometimes we would get lumber straight off the mill. That stuff was a mess but I guess they got it cheap.
Are the saws conscious of where the backstops are? In other words, if the blade is line to hit a backstop, are there physical stops in place that would stop the forward movement to avoid a collision? Or is it all up to the operator to avoid that?
I just measure off the rail the difference is 1" from rail to bunk in you need that during regular cutting RC Love your channel I have a lLT 15 and love it
A sharp cutting edge means it will wear faster. how many board feet or linerar feet of cut are you getting out of your blades? On my HM126 i can cut a 13 ft x 28 inch diameter log and get 100 to 125 board feet. By the time i cut 1 1/2 logs the high carbon steel (cheapest blade) is dull and needs to be replaced.
Hey, just jumped on board. Love this *^$%# LOL I would hate it, and I am sure you would to is if you hit a Nail or Rifle slug. Has that ever happened ?
Most logs are spewing out wet or moist dust so it really doesn’t hang in the air like when a dried piece of timber gets cut. It would have to be a hell of a collector to handle the weight and volume as well.
I was curious when you were in the market for a sawmill, how you arrived at purchasing Wood Mizer ?... your opinion would really help me out.Thank You sir

Wow, that black walnuts pretty!
You know who your good friends are, when they bring you logs🤣..
Good to see the pole barn pad in the background of the pines, it looks all cured and ready for your build :)
Exceptional show this time, Nathan.
That black oak and black walnut at the end is gorgeous.

You are absolutely correct. I run cook's super sharp. Their sharpening shop has managed to save most of my blades even after I cut a nail
I can not even find them. But as for sharp? they are all sharp, how long will it stay sharp?
Great video! Those blades seem very nice. Congrats to Tim on his new machine - looks awesome!
I would love to go through your firewood pile for woodturning projects. The bowl blanks you could sell.
Wow! Nice cut, Nathan....impressive smoothness! #KeepTheChipsFlying!
Perfect for a door or cabinets
Beautiful Red Oak. Looks like some beautiful clear boards. That new blade looks great Nathsn.

Will be driving to Indiana in the morning to pick up two boxes of 7/47
nice,
This is so much fun to watch. Been watchin' for a while. We'll most likely never meet but if I ever did it would not take long to say friend.
Man that’s fast . 😳Thanks for sharing.
Excellent work as always my dude. Man alive them blades even sound smooth.

Great job as always, love watching your videos.
Thanks 👍👍
That blade must be real special, I noticed the saw dust at discharge coming out like grain out the augers of a combine. Nice looking lumber Nathan, I love watching you mill and your explanation
a sharp blade makes the most amazing shavings.
Must be nice, all your friends bring you logs.....LOL. Best kind of friends to have.
lol don't worry, they were well paid,

Just like butter !!!!!
I wish i lived a little closer, i would come work for you just to learn how to do this.
Double wow. Like the LX250
that black oak looks very attractive. ive turned several oaks and most are very grainy and stand out when mineral oil is applied.
Damn, I want those slabs! There’s a few hundred dollars of clear oak to be salvaged there.
I was surprised the sap wood showed no rot for having been on the ground so long. Must’ve been laying on good drainage.
Woodmizer really hypes these blades. I tried one on the LT15 and it’s nice but not worth the extra $ imo.
I can not even find them. But as for sharp? they are all sharp, how long will it stay sharp?
@@renderuthis You can buy/order them from any woodmizer dealer.
That was actually helpful.
Thanks for watching

The sawdust pouring out the chute was crazy.
Impressive stuff, like a hot knife though butter. Thanks again.
John Ballantyne thanks for watching
Nice blade & beautiful slabs
Nathan That new Saw Blade didn't mess around did it. it cut that wood like it wasn't there
Many thanks for showing that new 747 blade. How do you think they would do on a smaller horse power mill? Good content!!
Not sure. Good ?
Could you explain again how the debarker works I only see it one side of the log.
the debarker is a wider carbide tipped saw that basically creates a clean trough in front of the main blade. It just clears out on the side the blade enters the log. the grit and dirt going through the kerf of the log with the blade is what dulls it quickly.
I am also loving the 747 blades. They cut faster clear the saw dust better and stay sharper than the 4s and 10s.
Beautiful grain.
You should try cook's super sharp blades
Hey bud, Dewayne from Corryton, Knox County here.
Those blades look awesome!
I bet they would be terrific on my EX Boardwalk 40 that hasn’t arrived yet ?
Since I’m only 1 1/2 hrs away , do you ever allow any visitation on a Saturday?
Thanks.
Can you tell us how much tension your running on those blades ?
Excellent.
Thank you! Cheers!
Damn, that Oak and Black Walnut was beautiful🖒
So….are the 747’s faster than the previous turbos? I’m told the teeth easily get wiped out on metal. Not the case with previous turbos.
I heard you say white pine was better for making your beams. What's makes the difference between working with white and yellow pine?
That's going to be some really nice oak from that log. Nice job.
Thanks 👍
No mention after cutting into it whether this particular log was red oak or not. Anyone know? Just curious is all. Great video, as always!
Yep, red oak.
Yep, red oak.
When you make repeated cuts on a squared up log does that eventually pinch your blade with five or six boards stacked up while you cut.
I just watched a video on this topic. No the residual saw dust gets trapped in between the slabs and provides a strong cushion against the pinching effect.
You are probably right. Was building boxes for a company and sometimes we would get lumber straight off the mill. That stuff was a mess but I guess they got it cheap.
Just love these videos
What do you do with the trim cuts you make when squaring up a log? Are these sold to a pulp mill or just tossed on a burn pile?
Do you own a mill or just use/ demonstrate what w.m. gives you?
Are the saws conscious of where the backstops are? In other words, if the blade is line to hit a backstop, are there physical stops in place that would stop the forward movement to avoid a collision? Or is it all up to the operator to avoid that?
Very Pretty! Love the grain.
That would make great table tops.
What's the best blade lube if you're sawing a lot of yellow pine?
Diesel
I just measure off the rail the difference is 1" from rail to bunk in you need that during regular cutting RC Love your channel I have a lLT 15 and love it
A sharp cutting edge means it will wear faster. how many board feet or linerar feet of cut are you getting out of your blades?

About 600 bf with these blades
@@OutoftheWoods0623 That is very good. Do you resharpen the blades yourself or send them to the manufacturer for resharpening?
That was pretty music at the end of your segment...just you...in the dark...with your new/wonderful saw blade...
you are a lucky man to have a job you enjoy.
What's a lowg?
You put 'em on a saw meal.
Why don't you use the debarker?
Have you ever reviewed how you purchase logs? What you pay in a going rate, how you get them for free, if you do, etc.
no, I dont discuss money on the channel,
So was it red oak or white oak? I don't believe you ever did say. Also, how could you tell? Thx.
Red 👍
the first cut should be parallel to the center of the log
So what kind of tree is it
So far, it looks like I'd be happy with the oak log no matter how you saw it. Also, no debarker on the 250?
Maybe this is a dumb question but do they have a metal cutting blade to use on old fence row wood ?
I do nt think so,
I m wondering if there is a metal detector you could use to scan theses logs for nails etc. ?
yes they do make hand held metal detectors. not sure cost but worth it i'd guess.
Hey, just jumped on board. Love this *^$%# LOL
I would hate it, and I am sure you would to is if you hit a Nail or Rifle slug. Has that ever happened ?
Those pointy teeth are going to get flattened with a nail hit
If you are like me, Nathan, you have more to do than you have time, but you really need to install a dust collection system in that building.
Nah I don’t mind the clean up.
Nathan has a dust collection system. Broom&dust pan. Lol
@@richardparker1699 So he says. He must like spending his time on dull and repetitive chores.
Most logs are spewing out wet or moist dust so it really doesn’t hang in the air like when a dried piece of timber gets cut. It would have to be a hell of a collector to handle the weight and volume as well.
@@wooodrow99 I know that it is wet. I also know that it can be done.
How much does the them boards need to dry being that log was 2 to 3 years old?
Mark Chapman same as usual. 👍
It depends on what the moisture level is.
With an Oak log that has been on the ground 2 or 3 years, what MC would you expect to find?
12-15%
Just love that grain.
Do you have dried wood for sale?
I was curious when you were in the market for a sawmill, how you arrived at purchasing Wood Mizer ?... your opinion would really help me out.Thank You sir
i did lots of research on my own, then made a good decision, great sawmill,
Great video 👍
Is this your blade of choice going forward?
How do you guys sell the wood? Who buys it?
Some beautiful wood , you make great lumber
thanks Paul,
Soo beautiful
Couldn’t you put a long level on top to verify it being level instead of measuring?
sure,
Will you be able to sharpen those on your sharpener?
Yes
You should mount a camera in the moving arm of the sawmill :)
Tried. Too much vibration.
Thanks for the info. 😊
thanks for watching,
that last pic showed some mighty fine grain.
how well does it hold-up to nails?
With those pointy teeth it cant hold up to nails
What do you do with your junk blades?
Scrap
I’d buy a few of your junk blades from you. I’m a hobbyist blacksmith/bladesmith and bandmill blades are good steel for Damascus billets
