I really enjoy watching this program. So relaxing, and it reminds me of my dad and the sawmill he and his brother used to have. He's been gone now for over 30 years, but this brings his memory back fresh in my mind. Thanks to all of you that make this happen....
I have to agree with Dan Baker your videos are never boring. I have never had the opportunity to be around a sawmill, I am really understanding what is going on.
Hi Mark, been watching your videos for a little while. Your operation mirrors ours here in Santa Fe. I am new to the mill, even though it has been in business for 97 years. I have caught alot of little hints to help me learn how to operate this mill from watching what I can, asking questions from who I can, and of course, trial and error. The past sawyer has been sidelined from work due to diabetes. I have no teachers. My wife owns the company and is feeling the pinch from not ever having a substitute in the works. I thank you for your videos, and will continue to watch, trying to find the videos that may show the subject material I am trying to struggle through as I slowly get the hang of it.Thanks again.
Three o’clock in the morning that’s a nice log with some nice grained boards coming off , I’m turning a line shaft journal bearing seat we welded up some hours ago its now cool enough to turn they need it back so they can work tomorrow sometimes think I’m to obliging, small out fits pay there bills faster than big companies and nicer people to work for .. you guys have a nice day
Another great video as always! Thanks! My son Erich (who's birthday is on the 18th of May, he'll be turning 7) also watches each and every one of your videos and asks me when we're getting our own sawmill!
Where I'm from we call quaking Aspen "popple". When I was a kid many of my friends would say "Oh, it is just popple". What it was mostly used for was to peel it each spring to make it pulp logs for the papermills. Then we were told as we got a little older was that most of the dairy barns were "popple truss". Those barns had the straightest roof lines and still do. Point is, as a kid, we undervalued the wood way too much
Mark that's a good idea. See what you see. Wear a head cam. It would make a good splice in...your camera set up now is great but it would be a great perspective to observe all you have to watch from your perch.
Cheers, guys, and thanks for the post, once again.. And thanks to Buzz for helping out lately. Appreciated. I bet Eddie appreciates it, too. Mark gets to sit on his butt, and Eddie gets to get all sweaty without you or ZZ helping. (I do hope ZZ's atomics are proceeding sensibly. Wouldn't want his whiskers getting singed!)
I enjoy your videos. Just I wish I could get some of the wood you saw. Have you ever tried a headset mic? It would put the mic closer to your mouth and might capture a little less saw noise ...
13:30 You know that people really want some "Man Glitter" and you could use sandwich bags and give every customer their very own bag of "Man Glitter" with each sawing order. . .All you need to do is print out some labels and people will be happy with "Man Glitter"
Wow, 14,000 views but only 2000 likes! What’s wrong with people, how much effort does it take to push a button? C’mon people, give these guys the likes they deserve.
When you say aspen, I was thinking quaken aspen, but I searched and found that you have an aspen called Bigtooth Aspen. Learn something new everyday... Ron...
Thanks Mark. Great video today. Did you ever run the tachometer to measure the spindle speed for your new blade? Wishing you, your team and family of kittens a blessed week filled with gentle seasonally appropriate weather and restful evenings. Peace brother
@@markgalicic7788 obviously he never watched any of Mike McCoy’s videos, his reflection problem shooting from the cab was bad, sometimes it was hard to see much of the sawing.
hello mark and eddies it's is randy and i like yours video is cool thanks mark friends randy and boom boom boom boom boo boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom
Why do you think that's Aspen? Aspen bark is similar in appearance to Birch. It's usually white with 'eyes'. They also don't usually get very big. This trunk is unlike any of the Aspen trees I've ever seen.
Not necessarily. Trembling aspen we call poplar and balsam poplar we call bamagillia or bam for short. The trees are different and up until about 10 years ago our pulp mills wouldn't even take bam. Now they use it with poplar to make OSB sheeting.
Much to the consternation of a very small percentage of your viewers, it appears that business is “booming” for you guys. That bark was stupidly thick, wow!
I have been watching your videos for some time and like them. Only one thing bothers me about your sawing, (what you call Aspen) appears to be Eastern Cottonwood.(Populus deltoides) not Aspen (Populus tremuloides) both are considered true poplars. Aspen does not have the thick furrowed bark that the cottonwood has. What some people call Yellow Poplar is not even a poplar; it is a Tulip Tree (Liriodendron tulipfera) it is in the Magnolia family.

Nothing is boring Mark the true viewers enjoy all the aspects of lumber making great video as always thank you
thanks Dan.
The dimensional lumber has turned out nicely. Nice sawing of the really big logs and video to watch.
thank you.
Good evening from Limpopo South Africa.
good evening David.
Hey that's pretty cool mark you mentioned my comment about the pith wood at the big box lumber stores who shall remain unnamed.
thank you for the comment.
Another great video as always! Thanks! My son Erich (who's birthday is on the 18th of May, he'll be turning 7) also watches each and every one of your videos and asks me when we're getting our own sawmill!
Happy Mother's Day, Mrs. Horvath!
Hello Mark And Eddie and Men Thank You So Much for your time
A lot of edging but still fun to watch. Watch out for that guy that suggested a second cross laser.
Bill
thanks Bill , yes I do.
Good sawing and if people want you to get stuff, let THEM buy it! That'll cut down on the yapping! Happy Weekend and God Bless
thanks Lewie , yes for sure.
Boom, that log was aspen for it. 👊
yes sir Mark , BOOM
hi saw i missed your call ,wife chore , never sawed Aspen , good sawing john

yes I agree this wood is overlooked and nice to saw.
great job Mark!
Very nice video, I didn't think you'd get out of it what you got, well done !!
thanks Carl.
great video again, thanks mark and eddie and buzzsaw!!
Great video Mark and Eddie. Take care.
Greetings Mark and Eddie … your videos have an oddly calming and motivating effect. Have a good weekend guys … and everyone as well!
Good evening from Denmark 🇺🇸🇩🇰
good evening Morten.
I enjoyed the whole video. Thank you
glad you liked it Becca.
Another awesome video guys
thanks Gary.

It looks like Eddy and his helper had some heavy lifting to do.
yes wet and heavy.
lookin' good, keep safe and well...
thanks Bob.

we did that at the Paul Bunyan show.

Love your videos. I HAVE NO COMPLAINTS.
another juicy one
yes the same tree.
😊😊😊😊😊👍👍

Yeah. I thought it looked more like cottonwood. I know carvers like to carve cottonwood bark I suppose cuz it’s thick and easy to carve
Thanks guy's enjoyed man!!
Very nice video, well done !! 19:36ISH, I realized you and Eddie speak like the Sasquatches do ''MIND-SPEAK'',
yes for sure Artemus.
Thanks Mark. Great video today. Did you ever run the tachometer to measure the spindle speed for your new blade?
Wishing you, your team and family of kittens a blessed week filled with gentle seasonally appropriate weather and restful evenings. Peace brother
thank you , yes we did check the speed 605 no load after the engine was hot.
👍👌👏
thanks.
Bark almost made it look like cottonwood
Close relatives.
big tooth or Quaking aspen.
Had to work a little bit for that one. 🎅🏻
lots of edging.
Mark cut it quick before it ties itself into a knot. Is this log being sawed for Lowes???
yes it does move.
Lovely superb Nice sawing of timber
Bark on carriage: Hmmmm, $100,000.00+ debarker as recommended by viewers or a $0.01 scrap stick. Decisions,decisions....
😛😛😛😛❤❤❤👍👍👍👍
I got my 8 inches, my wife only thinks they are all one size.😁
Did you chang the lighting or did you get a new camera,? I haven't seen you in a while and the picture is so much clearer.
Fina bitar du får till Mark.
Men en VOLVO eller SCANIA industrimotor vor nog billigare i bränsleförbrukning.
Ugly log! But you prevailed! 👌👌😎😎
thanks Greg.
Try putting a camera in the cab with you so you can show what you seeing
too much glare off the plexiglass windows.
@@markgalicic7788 obviously he never watched any of Mike McCoy’s videos, his reflection problem shooting from the cab was bad, sometimes it was hard to see much of the sawing.
Take the plexiglass and cover it with a tent to remove the glare. Then you can put a cam in the cab.
Did Mark ever mention what edger they are going with?
yes a Cooks.
Tell ya what, let me know how the second laser works out on your sawmill then I can mak a informed decision about adding it on my mill.
Hey Mark, at 14:30, why do you cut so close to the wane when on the other side you will be well into the good wood?
Great videos by the way.
thanks James.
@@markgalicic7788 and the answer is ??🤔
hello mark and eddies it's is randy and i like yours video is cool thanks mark friends randy and boom boom boom boom boo boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom
thanks Randy , BOOM.
When do you get your new edger?.
Mark how are the cats in saw dust bin
doing great.
Cheers Mark for update
How are the kittens doing mark
great.

How are kitties doing
@@godsmack113 great.
It is balsam poplar. In Ontario we call it bamagillia. Trembling aspen is a close relative with smooth bark like you describe.
@@nickschiavone7330 Interesting- I'm not surprised it's a dialect thing. So poplars are referred to as Aspen in Ontario?
Not necessarily. Trembling aspen we call poplar and balsam poplar we call bamagillia or bam for short. The trees are different and up until about 10 years ago our pulp mills wouldn't even take bam. Now they use it with poplar to make OSB sheeting.

Ya looks like cottonwood or balm to me aspen does not have that yellow heart it’s pure white straight through the log
I hate to tell you this but that is a cottonwood log
I think Gary, Chris and you are right. That looks more like cottonwood than aspen. If I could get a smell of it I would know for sure.
do you now have a klin going?
not yet.
Comment
after all, aspen, wood of poor quality. Where can it be used?
