So enjoy watching you mill lumber 👍pretty much convinced me to get a sawmill lol. You put out good clean family oriented homestead type material and my family and I love it! Thank you
Wes, Your videos are genuine and I really appreciate the time and hard work that you put into them. I am just beginning to saw with my LT15 and you are helping me learn the protocols for moving the logs and sawing. Thanks!
Great video thanks Wes! Those 2 logs produced some lovely timber, and the tarpaulin shade is sure helping to keep the sun off! Regards from the UK - stay safe & well. 👍👍
It seems that's a one man business, this gentleman works at easy, no hustle and with the tractor he does very well, i wish the best sir in what you trying to achieved, all your videos are amazing,
you may want to have your lumber graded and certified. that way it can be used for structural projects not just cosmetic ones. does not cost all that much and is done by the same firms that do so for lumber yards, Lowe's, home depot etc... I had over a 1000 board feet certified for about $125. I then was able to use my lumber when I built my home and easily passed the building inspection.
It's been decades since I've been around fresh cut lumber or cutting wood but just watching this I can smell it just like I was there. Love that smell.
Same, but with cut logs on a trailer-hitched splitter. I was only around a skidder once when young, and man this all looks so peaceful and relaxing, even if it is literally physical labor. It's the good kind, for sure. Total art.
Great video! On a side note, I use a bucket and a cheep painbrush to lube the rails. Just pour the ATF into the bucket and brush it on everything that's needed. That little bucket and brush have lasted me 5 years so far :D
That's a really handy portable sawmill setup that you have there my friend , it doesn't look like you'll never have too buy lumber anymore when you can make your own , thanks for showing us !
I enjoyed watching that. It helps inspire those of us who have yet to invest in a mill. The irony of not having a wood structure over your mill is not lost on me 🙂
great video. thank you for the time and effort. I'm looking at different mills to buy but I am a green horn so I'm trying to learn as much as I can. Your content helps me. cheers, Chuck
Whelp, you've inspired me to do some of my own cutting of natural materials. We have 6 dead old-growth cedars on my son's property, and rather than letting him just burn the "brush", I've been making cedar "cookies" (rounds) by cutting branches crosswise on my band saw. I can cut them about 1/4" to 3/16" thick, and up to 4" across. I'll be doing that with some sycamore, and possibly some maple and red oak in the near future, as that tropical storm that went over brought down some sizable limbs. My favorite so far is crepe myrtle cookies, which are very white wood. Thank you for your videos, your tips and the inspiration! :)
Love your videos, you always try to explain what you are doing and why. Suggestion: Save your liquid dish washing detergent bottles, put your oil for your saw in them, they have a leak proof top and dispense a nice fine stream, no muss no fuss no waste or extra oil around.
I must say you have came along ways since you first started. By listening to good advice and learning from those occasional mistakes you have become quite the pro Sawyer. I am also impressed with that LT15 Go Woodmiser mill. Although the wide version on occasion I am sure could be useful. I am grateful we have a platform like you tube to enjoy content like yours Wes and only wish it could have been around 35/40 years ago. That I could have did something like this myself all my experience in so many fields over years. At least I have been able to pass some of the knowledge forward.
Dear kin iam vary happy to find someone like you Iam realy need your exepeience in wood I want to know how to make lamp from tress please call me back dear
Amazing! I was truly impressed by the detail in this video. It's fascinating to watch the entire sawmilling process. The video quality is superb. Looking forward to your upcoming videos. Keep up the fantastic work!
Young man you are certainly saving money bye cutting your own lumber especially these days lumber prices are thru the roof! Thanks for sharing your videos with us and God bless
Love working with a sawmill. Enjoy the process of making lumber. I would agree to some extent on saving the sharpness of the blade but board feet is money too. Great job and thanks for sharing!
Great Job, I live in the Pacific Northwest and would love to own my own saw but too much expense, loader, saw, slab and shelter that would make a dent in my retirement. Enjoyed watching your hard work and the tips. I can pretend to know what the other guys are talking about having coffee at the local diner! 😁
Man you really hit the jackpot on interest in milling your own wood with this lumber market craziness. Here I am almost a year into watching you mill logs as city slicker..................
Indeed! I am an urban dweller as well - I get my vicarious enjoyment out of watching videos such as these and it helps to make it seem like I too am there with the author milling wood!
A hard day's work....sawyer, offbearer, camera man. Oh yeah.....tractor driver. Carry off the trash today too? Always enjoy your videos. Nice to be young.
Hey Buddy, You know there are felt pads on the legs of the saw head that you take off and saturate with oil that will keep those rails oiled. I can only imagine the oily mess you have with all that oil and sawdust on the side of your mill. I must compliment you on how far you have come as a sawyer. I remember that first mill on the ground. Love the videos.
I run the mill head down and back once after I oil to let those felt pads soak in some of the oil. It's ATF so it really doesn't make a huge mess. Plain motor oil probably would make a mess. Always appreciate your comments, Mac!
Nice work sawing those 2 by 4's Wes. Looks like the tarp is doing it's job, now all you need to do is to get a little steady five mile per hour breeze and your golden! It's hot alright mostly 92 degrees with 100% humidity; then it rains but the humidity stays at 100% and there is no relief. Lookin forward to the fall and some cooler dryer weather. Great video, thumbs up.
¡Qué video tan increíble! Realmente me sorprendió ver cómo puedes convertir la madera en algo tan hermoso y útil. ¡Es inspirador ver tu habilidad y creatividad en acción!
I do this - I'll cut a chunk off the top, but then make 1" thick boards with live edges - I can put a bunch on and rip them into stickers later if I need to - and if I want to give them away it's easy!
One more thought , by designing the cutting assembly the way j suggest it would olso eases the force needed to push the assembly it will became self feeding ( partially) REGARDS enjoying your recording much Ziggy Good LUCK and good time
Incredible! I was truly fascinated by the sawmilling process shown here. Seeing such huge logs being expertly processed is amazing. The quality of the video is superb. I can't wait to see more of your content. Keep producing such excellent content!
OMG dude if i lived in your area i would love to get all the off cuts from your pile. So much good stable wood there. 1x2 and 1x3 stock i saw in there.
Bottom boards were damaged by grappler. I'll be using my 48" forks on my tractor to pick up my boards. My tractor doesn't have a third controller of which I'm thankful for because instead of purchasing an $1800 grappler I bought a hook and pin set of forks for my john deere tractor. Most my trees are less than 20" in diameter so picking up a 12' black walnut log is no problem.
Wes, If you move the whole can't over 2-3 inches you will get the same result, and your boards are still in line. That's how i do it. I put a 1" x 2 or 3 in. board on the rail so the cant don't slide back
When you see the lumber being cut, it is satisfying. What you don't see in these videos is all the other work that is required to get to that moment. Getting the logs to the mill is a big job if you do it yourself, or a big expense if you buy them. Stacking and storing the lumber takes time and space as well as dealing with the sawdust and slash wood. If you expect a profit, the lumber needs to be sold and that eats up your time. A loader like you see here costs a fortune but without it there's a ton of grunt work. When you figure in maintenance, especially on older equipment, blades, gas for 3 engines and your time, you work like a dog for barely minimum wage. There's more money in making videos about sawing than there is in sawing itself. I guess that's why so many people make them.
The cover tarp seems to be holding up well. I know it's rained a lot this summer there. Can you show how the saw blade is set down for each cut? Also how you set depth of a cut. This was another well made video.

Hey Wes, missed seeing your son today !! Always enjoy seeing him from time-to-time !! Good looking boy - PTL !!

I enjoyed watching. I even could feel the smell of fresh cut pine.
Thanks from California
All that lovely timber, just makes my mouth water.

Thanks for sharing this video. You have your own sawmill lumber production🤗👌
Sawing videos are always relaxing. Great camera angles
👍👍🔥🔥
Thank you!
What do u do with ur bark slabs?
@@garywilliams7734 I'm guessing firewood, once the piles dried come early autumn, just whack em with a chainsaw to length and stack for winter.
great video. thank you for the time and effort. I'm looking at different mills to buy but I am a green horn so I'm trying to learn as much as I can. Your content helps me. cheers, Chuck

You know they make this stuff called grease that lubricates and lasts alot longer dont you? Lol
well made video w/lots of angel shots to keep us interested.
Leave the cap on the bottle of oil and drill a small hole, 3/16 or so and it works well for oiling the tracks.

It is fascinating to see how you get the lumber Yeil to improve by the way you cut what you cut and when you cut good job.
Awesome work and very nice lumber, take care stay safe and cool god bless
Thank you for sharing this video. It is very informative.
I enjoyed watching this video, you are doing good job man.
The wood cutter is awesome. Thanks for sharing 5:12
I wish I lived close enough to get a load of the laps from you to build a shed with.
loved your video love to watch sawing lumber
8:43 😂😂😂 Frederick Winslow Taylor , вы просто его продолжатель. Отлично настроен агрегат и отличный организатор.🎉
🤤.. Fresh pine plank I can smell it...Really satisfying video 👍
Wow calidad de trabajo mi amigo congratulations excellent work
I sometimes take thin cuts when taking off slabs, not to save boards. To save my back. I'm not as young as I once was.
I do this - I'll cut a chunk off the top, but then make 1" thick boards with live edges - I can put a bunch on and rip them into stickers later if I need to - and if I want to give them away it's easy!
Been watching sawing videos alot while my mill is on order, watching manual mills makes me sooooo glad I ordered fully hydraulic
Which saw mill did you get?
@@GBud999 It’s been a while but I think is LT 450
Lovely superb Nice sawing of pine timber.
Тяжелый труд,отличная установка ,великолепная работа .
Wow ! That's a very nice Piece . 👍👍👍

Sorry about that! Thanks for watching as always.

Great job I have the same Mill great tips we work a lot alike 👍
That tree was about 27 years old. Very nice love from Kenya.
Really worth it buying such a machine that capable of turning a log into our desired sizes planks
