Best on the tube by a country mile thanks for posting
Just watched all 5,, great videos,, I too saw very little safety equipment, specially around the cut off saw. WOW
Just watched all five reels. Awesome. I wonder if any of the mill equipment is still being used somewhere. It doesn't look much different than modern saws. Probably built very robustly too. Thanks for posting this great footage.
localcrew Thank You it was the very best Great job Thank. You Again......
machine parts were probably much stockier and and overkill for the job than today so they would last endlessly.
Just because it was a great job in the great outdoors (and i agree with that) doesn't make it acceptable to have massacred millions of centuries old trees.
Brilliant! Beats Ax Men into a cocked hat, our poor modern workers are so hampered by all their largely unnecessary (IMO) safety gear. I reckon they would be gobsmacked if they saw this footage! So good of you to publish this great archive, thanks!
I watched all 5 of the films, really amazing stuff!

There are really fantastic! When I first obtained these on DVD before converting them, I took them to the family Christmas Eve celebration and we ended up watching about 2 hours worth -- we were all fascinated. There are about 12 of these films on my channel home page in a special section.
Thanks for putting these videos on line, it is important to document that nature is not a free buffet without consequences and this orgy of century old trees killing is arguably the greatest crime against nature commited by any civilization in recorded known history.
They were exporting raw logs even then, how sad.
