This is the best sawmill on RUclips. Others use a band saw blade which takes forever. Other use a lot of physical labor, a lot of lifting and pushing. You are #1
I always like seeing the guys take a tree trunk and turn it into useful lumber. 8x8 “timber framing” wood is a special treat. You don’t get to see wood that size being cut every day.
I can well imagine all the different smells from the wood. I love that. Takes me back to my youth on the farm and the small tractor powered sawmill we had.
Another fun video, Mark. Let's enjoy this warm weather while it lasts. I was working outside and couldn't get to this video until late in the day. Bill
Man, Mark, I wish I lived closer to you. I'm retired and live in Texas. I would love to fill in for ZZ Mark and help Eddie out on the chop saw. Maybe one day I could make the trip out. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Man I'll tell you what. You don't get enough praise. For running that machine. Cause I don't think people understand just how good you have to be an keep your head on a swivel.
@@davidvandyk466 Hi David. Loadshedding #@! We've has 2 hours today already, at 12 we start a 4 hour cut, then 2 hours again at 22h00! Tomorrow is even worse! Two 4 hour sessions and a 2 hour session!
I had no idea hardwood logs are hewn into beams used to build barns. A good way to use logs that otherwise might have gone to waste, or the firewood pile.
Hey, Mark, That Detroit is really loud! I had a couple of 671s on pumps and found if you installed side panels on them and directed the exhaust up 8 feet or so, the engine noise was at least tolerable. I think Eddie would appreciate it too! by the way, I really enjoy your videos. You never know what is "inside" those logs until you make a few cuts. Sometime it's a real surprise! Keep the videos coming -----
@@markgalicic7788 Thanks Mark. I've somewhat got my mill back up and runnin again and I want to invest in a metal detector to help keep me from cutting through nails, bolt's etc. Have a wonderful
Time making mistakes = experience and knowing what not to do... Sometimes falling down and even on your face is the hardest but best remembered education...
Mark, have you ever considered making up bee hive kits? Bee keeping is fast becoming very popular, there should be a very good market for them and you're already perfectly set up to produce them. Could be a very good money maker for retirement.
why are so many little skiffs and skim, thin cuts being taken from the good part of the log instead of being left on the slab, i imagine its because you are using the auto set and not calculating the log and what is left on the carriage
Thanks for the opportunity to watch and hear you work. I'm 83+ and first in my family to go to college! Worked two summers in the factory my dad did and learned a lot while building farm machinery. Worked in summers putting up hay at surrounding farms. Made me a better man and student to know more than one life style. Appreciate you all as I await the light before me, dang cancer!
Yall did really good on the beams. Get them squared up as best as they will and THEN start getting technical AND I hear that Bus Motor EVERY time you crack the doghouse door! Such a comforting sound! And a saw and bus motor have a certain pitch that everybody at the mill gets used to, especially the sawyer and when the saw pitch changes, EVERYBODY knows something bad might be happening. 2nd nature to the crew. Happy weekend and also happy 66.2 subs! God Bless!
I'm half listening, not really even paying attention but I always have RUclips open in the background. That being said, Mark you caught my attention with "...that ignorant hickory..." and I had to go back and watch the whole thing. I have a love-hate relationship with hickory, so I feel that statement! Thanks for sharing Mark and Eddie
Fridays aint Fridays without dropping in on Mark and Eddie milling away on an exotic tree trunk. Hickory for the smoke meat people and 8" by 8" Post and beams for the post barn raising.
We could tell how heavy those beams are by how high the roller table jumped when receiving it. Don’t work Eddie too hard. Nice sawing guys. Spring has sprung.
Around my neck of the wood (Wisconsin) we have a saying that “you can always tell when you cut hickory because it warps so much it walks back into the forest on it’s own.” Of course, ours is shag bark hickory.
got my sawill fix thanks to you guys, still muddy so cant get to my mill or ill tear my field all up and we dont want that cause i use the hay on it 79 here today so wont be long thanks guys

yes it's the best part of sawing .
That third log was fun to watch!
thanks Johan , hope all is well!
Just love the sound of the GM singing when you open the door.
yes a great sound!
Wow! Big Timbers!
I think those are the biggest you’ve done that I’ve seen!
Take care and stay safe! Hello Eddie! God bless!✝️🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

nice looking beams, great job Guys
The hickory beam was impressive. That could hold up a two story building without a problem.
Lovely superb Nice sawing of timber
thank you.

Those long logs are no problem for you guys !!
That was some good decision making there markie,turned out great for the crook in that one
thanks Doug.
Another great video. Thanks.
Beautiful evening in the Texas Gulf Coast. Greetings.

Very nice work thank you for the video thumbs up and shared. 😊👍
Those are some mighty heavy pieces of wood Mark. How about cutting a 3" chunk of that maple for me. Lol!! Thanks Mark. Stay safe and God bless
yes very heavy for sure , great turning blanks.
From Canastota NY. Tuesday I was visiting a local Amish neighbor. He was bandsawing 8x8 cants for the barn he is going to be building later this year.
they saw lots of beams for sure.
nice day Mark
Great video guys. An 8x8 that long must weigh several hundred pounds so be careful. Thank you.👍👍
thanks Dennis , yes many hundred pound for sure.
Awesome video guys
thanks Gary.

That's a nice stick of hard maple
thanks Doug.
I Just got done milling 8X8 Black locust Beams. That's Crazy.
did the locust move while sawing it? I had problems with it before.
@@markgalicic7788 Yep. My wife was like your mill is messed up why is it doing that. The true 4X4's where worse.
I enjoyed the video. I just want you and Mr Eddie to know, my wife stays on me all the time for watching yall. Hahaha. 😆 😆 😆
thanks John , tell her I said hi lol!
Good video Bus Motor Productions
thanks James.
hello mike and eddies its is randy and i like yours video is cool thanks friends randy and boom boom boom boom boom boom boom
thanks Randy , BOOM!
Mark, do you have a quick tip on how to keep the pith centered on a tapered log?

that's a great idea Leroy , I will look into that.
Good evening from Lincolnshire UK.
good evening Andrew.
Busses never ran 3-71 in large transit busses the engine of choice was an inline. 6+72 over the road buses Trailways and Greyhound ran 8V-71s!
6V-71
Will those beams crack
All wood cracks (checks) 🤓
yes they will but but still very strong.
Do you sharpen the dogs any? Doing great work! Keep it up!! 👍😉😄
thanks Dana , I never had to sharpen the dogs since we rebuilt the mill over three years now.
Greetings Guys.
15:34 why would you not take the skim off the wayne edge leaving a full set with a perfect board on the next pass?????
I thought hickory would have a more beautiful grain look to it ?
Missing ZZ !
yes we are George.
I just checked the price of oak 8x8x16 is $650.00
Someone is ripping people off
$7.50 BF big time ripping
what puts stress on a log
most times it grew on a hill side.
👍👌👏
thank you.
Just wondering how John the Turtle is doing?
he is doing great.
why are so many little skiffs and skim, thin cuts being taken from the good part of the log instead of being left on the slab, i imagine its because you are using the auto set and not calculating the log and what is left on the carriage
again more skiffs, skims and thin cuts, ????
chewy needs to go "union"
chewy abuse
I was watching a saw mill show that had blades on top and bottom and a blade on top of the main blade you ever use one like
Good Evening from Alice Springs Australia
Good Evening, Robert. I'm from Hobart in Tasmania. Have followed Mark Galicic since it was established four years ago. Watch every video.
Watching your mill run, I feel like I’m able to see what my great grandpas mill was like in action.
thanks , glad you liked it.
those beams are big 'uns..lol..lookin' good, nice work...
thanks Bob.
I see you have moved the roller table up a bit 👍🇬🇧🤓

@@markgalicic7788 I ALWAYS like the sound of ANY bus motor! Or non-bus Bus Motor!
👍👍😎😎How fast to cut? Yup, listen to the hummm of the motor & the singggg of the saw! Music to the ears!!
yes very true just listen.
Man does that 6-71 ever Bellow.!!!!!! Wow. Sounds nice. Glad T.H.E. Eddie wears ear protection.
Good evening from Malta 🇲🇹
That’s some nice wood
Heavy duty 8" x 16'
Happy weekend guys keep well

I'm a bit surprised Mrs Horvath's boy Edward needed a forklift to move those 8x8 oak beams.
On those big ones I would be bad a med hammer to top of master dog. Help I think. Or bigger cylinder. Thanks for my foolish post lol
Great video Mark and Eddie. Nice looking board's and beams they made some great Booms. Take care.
I watch the steam powered mill and the water wheel powered and think man and his mind ? Oll glad I learned
out of 1000 logs, how many dont require "chewy work" prior to first cut???
The technical term for the calculating you do is gonkulating. A lifetime friend of mine corrects me and I him at times to get a laugh.
Hickory man glitter would be a good size for a little chief smoker.
When you have Hickory that smells like crap mean grew in bad soil
Do you mold any lumber for design like casing or chair rail????
Great sawing video guys, keep them coming,
That was Soft Maple, not Rock Maple.
Thats Funny, Chewy is More of a Pine Man, lol
Bring back the BOOM please.
Did you say ? I missed kind of wood looks local to me
Nice 8x8 😊
👁🤟👉😎😎you com me down so much 😅
Thank you Mark and and Eddie

Have you checked out "Riggin's Ranch? He has a oo1 frick mill modified. Good viewing. Family operation.
yes I have, great mill.
How much do you think that maple beam weighs? Boy you move that stuff around all day that'll put hair on your azz😂
I would say about 300 lbs or more just very heavy.
got my sawill fix thanks to you guys, still muddy so cant get to my mill or ill tear my field all up and we dont want that cause i use the hay on it 79 here today so wont be long thanks guys
thanks Cedric very dry here for April.
😀👍
3👍
You can put it back on you just need a lot of Elmer's glue and a lot of clamps
yes for sure.
Mark, how much fuel does the bus motor burn in an hour working it steady?
under full load about three gallons.
Orders like these you sure miss ZZ and Buzz saw?
yes for sure.
Just curious is mark the owner of the mill
yes I own the mill
👋 buddy how are you feeling today
great.
