It’s kinda cool that you guys are so invested in learning about your chosen occupation. Your sense of curiosity is refreshing in today’s cookie cutter world. Thanks for posting.
I can't ever get over how informed you are regarding your job as a Sawyer. All of these little bits of information will certainly be valuable when the business is yours and Jade's . Thank you for the video
Wow, this dynamic sisters duo is amazing! They slice wood to mere perfection and they have become awesome presenters. Congratulations to LCLY YT channel. The entertainment is great and the educational value at the very best.
Miss Em, I've worked with wood from a very early age. When I was no older than Master Judah, I helped my granddad fell a cottonwood tree about 7 feet in diameter using a 12 foot crossbuck. Sawyer promised he could fit Sawyer log on his mill but when rough lumber came back and we tried to sticker to let it dry granddad immediately knew Sawyer blew the log apart to fit his mill. LOWES lumber is straight compared to what came back 😮. Purpose of rough cut lumber was repare of farm buildings but it helps if boards are at least straight ! You made a statement that has me curious. I also make furniture, although I live in Virginia my son and family lives in PA and your hardwoods interest me. Granted I don't see the amount of chatter on the board, but since you are cutting rough cut any way what would a rougher cut matter? I, and I expect most woodworkers, will run the board through a planer during preparation and fitting.
Thanks for the great information, Emerald. You are getting to be quite the blade expert, Practice makes perfect! Ladies thank you for taking the time to film and share you day with us. Have a great evening! TTFN
saw blades are the bane of my existence. My initial thought had been that if I just buy enough new ones.....now in denial about the endless stack of dull ones in need of sharpening, collecting dust in my basement, haha!
Bi-metal blade seem to make a smoother cut. On hardwood this would matter to show off the beautiful wood patterns. Great improvement and lasts longer is a plus. Nice work explaining, Em.
Look, I’m not trying to downplay the interesting blade information. I appreciate saws and blades as much as anyone. But . . . I was going to ask if you are doing something different with your eyes or make up, but then realized it’s only because your hair is pulled back, which shows your face more completely. Captivating. I watched a second time to make sure I got the blade information. Watching your poise and confidence on camera grow the past few years has been interesting. If I ever film a documentary, I’m hiring you as narrator. Best wishes for a productive spring and summer making sawdust at Lum-ber Cap-I-tal Log Yerd.
I am familiar with sand blasting steel. Em, these blades should hold their sharpness pretty well. I saw no chatter on the Hemlock log. I like that you hold quality as an important part of LCLY!
I do know what it is for but I would like to know how it works and how it is powered. I had a mill similar to these and I had problems with grit on the bark. My blades became dull way faster than they should. Actually ice on the log was just as bad. I spent a lot of time chipping it of but I never got it all
Love the naration Emerald is a natural. You guys need a simple 2 chain conveyor to deposit the logs onto the mill That is the big physical effort you could automate and make your life easier and more productive!
Have you ever discussed the circular saw used ahead of the bandsaw on the initial cuts? Just curious. Also, the sandblasting improves the fatigue life of the bimetal band saw blade. Great episode!
Very good and informative video, thank you. They sand blast the blades to make them pleasing to the beholder, for the blending of the mild and strong steel is a define difference in appearance. QUESTION. What is the purpose of the black tape on the roof support?
"Just kidding" ....so sincere...piss funny.🤣😂🤔😎🇦🇺👌 Love the way the camera shows the stress in the timber as it's cut. Good job as usual. Stick it to the big box.
You are sensing correctly. Don't push it. Saws, blades have a speed they like. The motor loafs, the blade lasts and lasts, the blade cuts true. The sand blasting is primarily to reduce friction. The slightly course surface has less contact area,, less stress, less fuel. Sometimes the shot coating is also a rust proofing, zinc, aluminum, or phosphate.
Haha. Lowe's lumbar. And they have the best lumbar around here, imo. I tried a couple other lumbar yards and have been very unimpressed. Home Depot too, but they're pressure treated looks orange.
Hey Jade and Emerald, another fantastic video. Thank you. So I’m confused, 😅, as usual, huh? Bimetal blades are 2 separate strips of metal welded together, (like a lamination), then sand blasted and sharpened? What is the cost difference between the hardened steel and the bimetal blades? 2x? 3x? Etc. Are they cost effective in the long run? If they last longer on the saw, the down time to change them is less? Do you need to do a sawdust “clean out” without changing the bimetal blade now?
❤ great video you and you friend show lumber workers don't need be men and I also found it interesting as got to your video looking for bi metal and what it was
The really cool thing about bi-metal smelting is that Samurai sword makers had this figured out before Christ was even born. And you're right. At the front of every successful tool, is a sharp blade. A dull blade makes any tool bad, even dangerous. I have a daughter like Ember. I call her my honourary boy.
Regular watcher here, do you ever calculate how many board feet you actually get compared to what you marked the log as having? Just interested in hoe accurate the estimation is.
Are all your blades the same thickness? I would guess you would take the kerf into account when programming. Does the kerf change after re-sharp? These are the things I think about.
Good day to you Jade and Emerald. That thumbnail for the video reminds me of an old movie by the famous movie producer Alfred Hitchcock called "The Birds" in which a woman is chased and menaced by a flock of blades, sorry I meant birds. This video is also an excellent explanation of the equipment and tools you work with as well as fabulous camera shots of the machine. 🙂👍🌻🌻

@@KenBreon As well you should be, Ken!
Emerald could be reading the phone book and i would still watch,absolutely captivating delivery.
@@Zzrdemon6633 Lol you are ignorant
I agree. She is so pretty
Bro..
Who would have thought that he would be watching some logs turning into lumber again and again.
Fox. (True, but just trying to bait one of the nutjobs into calling me creepy.).

I'm sure your grandpa is very proud of the way you girls run that Sawmill thanks for putting it on RUclips
2:08 This reminds me of when I used to be a shop foreman at a welding shop on the Oregon coast and replaced cutting blades on industrial equipment.
Thanks for the great information, Emerald. You are getting to be quite the blade expert, Practice makes perfect! Ladies thank you for taking the time to film and share you day with us. Have a great evening! TTFN
You can learn alot from a pretty red head 💪love ur style 😎
Definitely from this red head
saw blades are the bane of my existence. My initial thought had been that if I just buy enough new ones.....now in denial about the endless stack of dull ones in need of sharpening, collecting dust in my basement, haha!
It’s truly satisfying watching you guys turn logs onto beautiful useful pieces of lumber. The blades look really cool too

Yesss lumb-er cap-I-tol log-yerd
Noo dont change the intro 😂. The "welcome to lumber capital logyard" was awesome

Thanks Rex for the comment. Have a good evening…Boss Man.
"lclw" .....No you have to say Lumber Capitol Log YAARRRDDD!
I could watch that all day. Beautiful wood to.
You girls are braver than I am. I have been nicked enough times changing blades that I wear gloves to change blades now.
Thanks for the edumacation
I have the same question about frozen logs... maybe we'll find out sometime. Awesome framing of the shot of you explaining through the saw...👍
I've seen some sawn out power line poles that were beautiful aromatic western red cedar.
Could you talk about the debarker that runs ahead of the blade sometime?
Yeah I don’t really see what it’s actually doing.
We will note your comment and talk about the debarked in an upcoming video…Boss Man.
@@anthonydayton7998 I'm guessing it removes the bark, before the saw blade contacts the bark. - lots of dust and grime in the bark.
@@ThunderDivine - Yep.....plus, the bark is inconsistent so removing it causes less "surprises" for the blade.
I do know what it is for but I would like to know how it works and how it is powered. I had a mill similar to these and I had problems with grit on the bark. My blades became dull way faster than they should. Actually ice on the log was just as bad. I spent a lot of time chipping it of but I never got it all
Looking good EM,, always enjoy the show good to see Jade back,,
That was one of my favorites the wood looked beautiful and a Sharp cut helps !
I liked the configuration of the teeth. Very informative and enjoyable ladies excellent video. Thank you.👍♥️♥️
Love the naration Emerald is a natural. You guys need a simple 2 chain conveyor to deposit the logs onto the mill
That is the big physical effort you could automate and make your life easier and more productive!
A good speaker and a great camera person
Aw man, I miss hearing the way she says "yard". Kinda like a yooper.
Looks like a clearer cut or more visible after the cut.
Have you all considered making pressed logs from sawdust? It seems like a simple process and could be another income stream for you.
Daaaamn Em is especially cute with a ponytail!
LCLY?!?! Ya gotta say it!! Love the content.
Very good job ladies! Lots of intel on this one!!
Thanks for sharing!!
👍🐺🧙♂️🦊👍
Have you ever discussed the circular saw used ahead of the bandsaw on the initial cuts? Just curious. Also, the sandblasting improves the fatigue life of the bimetal band saw blade. Great episode!
You cut a fine product with that new blade. Great logs make great lumber!
Love the hair today Emerald.
LCLY! I was Looking for Lumber Capital Log Yard!
Nice education! I have b a n using the bi-metal on my LT35HD and like them. Also really like the debarker which I didn’t have on my LT15
Beautiful eyes...beautiful personality...
Thank you so much for sharing your amazing skills❤
Great tips. Thank you. I am a full time student now, keep the tips coming. Best teachers ever. 💯👍
Sandblasted because it's a bimetal - are you sure? 🤔 I get excited like a little boy every time Jade comes into the picture, too.
Lol I bet
I could almost make a living resawing your thick slabs into good sellable lumber
God vlog. Excellent vlog. Good job Emerald
Great video as always
First time I’ve noticed the scoring blade hello from Scotland 🏴
Very good and informative video, thank you. They sand blast the blades to make them pleasing to the beholder, for the blending of the mild and strong steel is a define difference in appearance. QUESTION. What is the purpose of the black tape on the roof support?
I see you got the debarker fixed too. Thats great!
"Just kidding" ....so sincere...piss funny.🤣😂🤔😎🇦🇺👌
Love the way the camera shows the stress in the timber as it's cut. Good job as usual. Stick it to the big box.
Enjoy fresh air in your location. Nice vid too and good luck to you
LCLY??! I love the way you say “lumber capital log yard” 😭😭😭
I know right? Love her Irish accent
@@dek779 I think it's more like a PA slang, 😂
@@alisciamarotta3888 Lol not sure. Listen to the way she says yard.....it has an Irish sound to me. Just that word lol
@@dek779 😂 lol
@@alisciamarotta3888 You disagrees? That yard sure sounds Irish to me lol
Lowe’s lumber. We bless the 🌲.
Lowe's always get it lol, Careful Emerald they might want your products one day.
love the hairdo!
You guys always get a 👍. Informative and fast, thanks.

Good Stuff Gals . !
Great thumbnail
Thanks, Emerald. I enjoyed the information.
I hope you two girls make a few bucks off of youtube. I love this channel.
That looks cool
Do you guys think about how much a blade cuts as in thickness, does one blade give you maybe two more boards than the other?
Sharp blade really makes the grain pop😊
Haha. Lowe's lumbar. And they have the best lumbar around here, imo. I tried a couple other lumbar yards and have been very unimpressed. Home Depot too, but they're pressure treated looks orange.
You get cuter and more beautiful every day. Love the ponytail. I bet you can't wait until the weather starts warming up.
Good work and looking lovely

If they last longer on the saw, the down time to change them is less? Do you need to do a sawdust “clean out” without changing the bimetal blade now?
Bimetal blades are also reported to better survive hitting metal in a log.
GOOD JOB
I would use one Grandpa sharpened!
Nice work on the thumbnail.
Good video thanks. How are the conditions in the wood lot it's not been a good winter overall. Hopefully it will dry up some.
Hey that's pretty neat!
NOT to detract from this video, but your parkour short was AMAZING. Hope you update his progress occasionally in the future

Awsome job girl's! Way cool video.
Very informative video like usual!! Thanks
thanks a lot
Looks like you operate the mill with 2 styles of blade guides. Is that true? If so, this might be a topic you could address in future video.
Good information!
stunning!
Can you do some redwood. Seems fitting
Emerald your hair looks nice like this.
Great video girls.
I would think smaller the bike the faster you could go but I could be wrong too 😁🐝
Do you ever have to change your circular pilot saw? How often if so?
The debarker? No it doesn’t need changed
The only reason I click on this channel is to hear her say “Lumber Capital Log Yard”.
Yarddddddd lol
SAME
Regular watcher here, do you ever calculate how many board feet you actually get compared to what you marked the log as having? Just interested in hoe accurate the estimation is.
I had the same question as I watched this video.
LCLY - cool!
Emerald question what's the next machine up from the LT-40? And do you plan on upgrading to a larger sawmill.?
We have plans to upgrade to a LT70 diesel in the future
@@lumbercapitallogyard awesome 😃
Are all your blades the same thickness? I would guess you would take the kerf into account when programming. Does the kerf change after re-sharp? These are the things I think about.
Very Very nice
That's nice grained wood, Ladies.
Very interesting video. Thank you, girl with red hair. 👍
Good day to you Jade and Emerald.

This video is also an excellent explanation of the equipment and tools you work with as well as fabulous camera shots of the machine. 🙂👍🌻🌻
Interesting.
Isn't the sandblasting to get rid of the welding flux? Don't want that staining the wood.
