Sitting here watching, and wishing I could jump in and help. I am 73, but no stranger to logs and a peavey. Sometimes a pole ax to give the hook a tap helps too when the wood is a bit punky. You really need your grapple though , or run a chain around your log and turn it with your bucket forks.
You really start making money once you get the stock squared up though.
Great job, both of you - keep ‘em coming!
Thank you. I brought my grapple back the next day. For me, I have got so use to using the grapple, I am just about a rookie when it is gone. Still, I love doing this.
GOOD DAY TONY AND TANYA, ALL THE VERY BEST AND HAVE A REALLY GREAT DAY.
Thank you. That was a tough day on the sawmill, but we had fun.
Can not wait till the next video as I’m not getting as many as before mate all the best to you your wife and family Joe
We have been building some bigger projects. More videos on the way.
Having a grapple is a must IMO. We took down 30 sizeable pine trees this last weekend and It was worth its weight in gold. Such a great tool to have. Another great video. Have a great day, and God Bless.
I brought my grapple back to the farm yesterday. It will never leave the sawmill again. Until it does.😁
If you Find a job that you love, you'll never work a day in your life. HAVE A BLESSED DAY, YOU TWO.
Good Bless you too
Love watching and listening to the both of you! That was one big log! GOD BLESS Y'ALL!
Thank you. It was a tough job, but we pushed through it.
My you all gonna need a spa day after that one!
You should use some of those fine offcuts to make a giant solar calendar or sundial in your grounds.
Thanks as always.
Thank you. That was a tough log to work with.
WooDoggies, that was a heavy log. Oak is my favorite wood for shelving and furniture.
I have a good bit of Red and White Oak put back. I let a few sit on the ground too long.
VERY UNIQUELY SATISFYING WATCHING YOU CUT TIMBER ON THE SAW MILL..
I love the sawmill. We are cutting today.
Thank you for the instruction on how to properly bend your forks. I have been wondering how to do it. 🤣🤣🤣
😁😁😁 I am here to help! LOL
Nice to see the real amount of work required in cutting a log. You da man.
Thank you.
Thanks guys for the video. Perhaps a statement about my life at the present, but your video may well be the highlight of my day. I truly appreciate the fact that you two do not make videos of your latest spoon and or toothbrush/hairdryer! The solution for the missing grapple tractor is really simple! Have one at the house, a his and hers pair! Did you notice how easily I spent your money? Please Chief, no more hernia’s. I’m sore from watching, ugh. Back is going out again!
Sir, I wish you the best with your back. I have been down too, and nothing hurts like back pain.
That grapple is never leaving again. You said that a bunch of times. It does make the turning safer and easier. Gizmo was to be watching that side for you. Must have seen a mouse. I realize getting upset doesn't help. But I don't usually stop till I'm past that stage. I want it done so bad, but makes it worse in the end. By then my wife is upset, and God just shakes his head. Be safe guys Thanks for sharing
I brought the grapple back today! So much better
I love the videos of you two working together. Awesome!
Thank you. I love working with her too
Tony expert work all around.
Thank you
Glad you got out and nothing was broken on the tractor as always God bless y'all from Gaffney South Carolina viewer
Thank you. All fingers and toes accounted for.
Great teamwork!
Tanja saves the day. 😁👍
Good job
Thank you.
Very well done Tony!
Thank you. I am looking forward to getting my grapple back to the farm.
We'll make a big post it note to always bring the grapple...lol. 😄 Glad everything turned out good. Excellent work, Tony and Tanja!
It all worked out, but it was a challenge.
Ya that was one heavy log I see ya have a support for your knee hope all is good and gets better soon I know how important ur knee is because I only have one leg and your knee really takes a lot of weight and can ware out if not taken care of I know I watch how r turn and twist not to injure it have a good one thanks for the videos
That log was heavy! I have had both of my knees replaced. They will get inflamed sometimes.
Great job 👏 👍 👌
Thank you 👍
Hy Tony I’am glad to see you again
Hey brother. I am here every week. See you in the next video.👍
Seeing of your movie is time past, it need somany time to watch one log mill....
I don't understand your comment.
Again Tony, as I watch you work your tush off on that big log, you bring a young strapping Lad and me being over 81 years old and not so strong, I wonder if I should get the log crank to help turn logs as I think you should do. I am selling my TK 1220 which is best made but too heavy for your Frontier competitor only because it has one or two things I like better.
I love you and your fun talk and no rambling explanations of trivia what’s going on. I also love the way you and Tonya converse back and forth. God bless and keepum coming
God bless you too. Frontier offers a winch system. I may look into that.
good job sawing the log the more you saw the better you will get I have a mill also
Connie. Agreed. We are on our third year of running the sawmill, but we are just now getting to use it weekly.
The frontier really does a good job especially after the motor upgrade.Had no trouble with that big oak.Love y'all's videos,you got the camera stuff down to a art .can't wait for the next one.i get up as soon as I hear my phone on Sundays lol😂.God bless and much love from your neighbors in Chester co.
Thank you. Tanja does great with the camera.
You can turn log with your tractor by wrapping a cable attached to a hook around the log. Hook the other end to the tractor forks or bucket positioned above the log and raise the bucket which in turn will rotate the log. Two wraps of cable around log will easily rotate even a giant log with little effort. Take a look at the manual winch turner on a Norwood manual mill to see how it works.
Thank you. I brought my grapple back over the next day. It has spoiled me.
lol I did that once and rolled the log right off the back..glad nobody was standing there.. luckily we had a tractor to reach over and grab the log out of the dust pile
So far, I have not hurt myself or someone else. I learn more every day.
Good evening Sir, I pray everyone is doing well. I saw you fighting the wasp and I think they are in the frame part with the holes in it by your crank . Just a suggestion please be safe and keep up the great work.
Thank you. I sprayed the sawmill good. I hope I cleared it out
Great work !
Maybe have a look at Sawing with Sandy, he's just put lasers on his Mill & they look like real time savers ;) Great Vid!!!
I see that. I may try that.
Thanks for a great video Tony and Tanya
Thank you. We had fun even when it was tough.
wow Tony, the way you pulled that log out of that wood pile. it sure was impressive not sure if it was luck or skill but it sure looked good
😁
Enjoyed this video Tony and Tanja. That was a big log to handle. Made some pretty boards for sure.
We used the boards on an upcoming project. It turned out really good. I can't wait to share that video.
I like that tractor
Me too
I got the frontier loading ramps and winch system.. I use the winch to roll my log against the log rests..works very well on huge logs..I don't struggle at all..not to mention the box tube the winch is mounted on keeps the log from rolling to far and coming off the back side. also I put the system on before I release the log dog, it keeps the log from rolling back at me. I love the winch..makes it much safer to use..even with just one person.
Thank you so much for the info. I have looked at the winch system several times. I think I will order one now.
@@TonysTractorAdventure it really is worth it, especially if you are working by yourself.. before this I would roll a log up and then cram a wedge under hoping it stays tight to my log rests... the winch you stand on the log rest side and pull it right up tight and then go lock in your log dogs..so much safer. I was just thinking. it may be cheaper to just get a 12 volt atv winch and make the frame up from scrap metal.. I wish I did..I think its expensive for what it is but it really helps. If I did it again I would build my own
Another great video. You always amaze me with what you can do with a tractor.
Thank you, my friend. I brought my grapple back yesterday. 😁👍
Ya need to get ya some chock blocks.
HarborFreight has rubber blocks that work perfect for wedging logs. Been using them on my mills for years.
Thank you. I will grab some. That is a good idea.
Nice Tony 👏👍💪👴🐕🚜😎🤠🏆🏆
Typical day around my place, no grapple and always moving logs with the forks. You just have to take your time.
I brought my grapple back today
You guys work very well together.
Milling that big Red Oak was a big job, but the lumber is beautiful.
Be safe and God Bless.
Watching from Canada 🇨🇦
God bless you too. Thank you
make a wedge that slides on your cross bar to hold the log turning back on you....
Hey Tony and family. Thanks for the video that's a lot of work! Yikes on having it fall off the saw... Could you add a side shelf or maybe some kind of end pivots like on a lathe to rotate the logs? Have an awesome weekend
I brought my grapple back to the farm. The grapple is the way to go. I just pick the log up and turn it with the tractor. Much safer and easy.
TONY YOUR BUCKET IS FULL OF SAWDUST.
Thank you.
Put a couple wraps with a strap around the log hook it on the fork & lift it will turn works good
I don't have a log hook. I brought my grapple back out to the farm. All better now.
On those big logs you could save some grief if you had a wedge or two to slide atop the bunks to keep the logs from rolling back.
I agree
Fighting wasp with your cap ,good old days.
Life long skill
That log made quite a bit of lumber. Yall take care.
Thank you. Big greenhouse build is coming up.
Pull towards yourself on the other side, get leverage by standing up on the side of the mill track. Other dude I saw had no trouble rolling the biggest of logs with ease.
It is different in real life. There is a lot more physics going on than meets the eye.
How big of a log could you quarter saw on that mill? Also what part of Tennessee? I’m in Meigs county.
This saw can only cut 5 7/8" deep. We are in Henry County
I think I have said this before but get you some 2 foot sections of metal pipe that just fits over your backstops and turning a log is much easier. It rolls against the pipe.
I apologize for missing your comment. That is actually a really good idea. Thank you for the insight.
I have commented that to several sites. 3 sections of 2 foot steel pipe that is sized to just slide over your log stops was the best thing I have ever added to my HM130MAX sawmill. Slide them over the log stops and instead of it trying to climb over the log stops it just slides. The other best thing I have done is to cut some perfect sized and planned white oak logs stops. I use them when I have squared off wood cutting pieces. If you accidentally hit one no loss of a blade. I made a bunch of them at one time. Still using my first 3 so far with no mistakes yet.
I would have liked to see you move that with the T25. I'm in the market for a larger tractor to move logs around the same size onto my sawmill and am having a hard time figuring out which one will do the job. If the T25 would do the job I'd like to get that as it's much easier to trailer it than a T394/474.
The T25 is rated for 1300 pounds on the loader. Use a log chart to get the weight of the log based on the species, length and diameter. There are a lot of variables. I use the T25 all the time on the sawmill, but the log must be right.
Just found your vlog . If I may offer this , it might be a little more work but if you leave the long backstops on the mill when you roll it won’t the log slide on the backstop ?
Not always perfect. Sometimes, with oversized logs, it is darn near impossible to turn without help.
I wasn’t criticizing and I realized, because I hadn’t watched all of the video . I was just saying that instead of taking the chance of the log rolling off leave the long stops on there when turning . Changing them out was the “ little extra work “ came in .
I meant the tall stop doesn't always work perfectly with oversized logs. The trick is to never do this without the grapple.😁
My cant hook kept slipping on me, like yours is doing. I eneded up taking a file to the teeth so that they could get a better bite on the log.
The log was punky on the outside. It is sharp. I brought my grapple back right away
Tony don’t ever take your grapple away from the mill,how many times are you going to say that.
As many times as I need to. The grapple is such a work saver.
how come you buy the winch and loading ramps for your Frontier? I have the OS 27 Frontier sawmill and have used winches and ramps before for other applications and taught 7th and 8th grade physics how use levers, ramps, dollies to move your work without hurting yourself. Oh, by the way, I don't have a large tractors only a X350 lawn tractor and winches, an old 50 year old block and tackle (5-1 ratio) 5 snatch block pullies, etc. along with the frontier loading ramp and winch. I am 79 years young. Hope this would help you.
I have a good system with my tractor and grapple, but my system was messed up.
That looked more like a yellow jacket than a wasp.
I didn't stop to ask him.
I would turn the hydraulics down so that they are not so touchy.
Yep
May I know the prices of the mill?
They have the price on their website.
All mushrooms are edible, some only once.
That is a fact!
Mount a electric hoist to roof you can use with a jumpbox
It would only pull the roof down
Two people with 2 can’t hooks would be easier.
Thank you for you insight.
Lift ratings front in
WHERE'S YOUR TOMMY HORKE ,TONY .
I don't understand your comment?
I always say, if you love your job you'll never work a day in your life.
Good saying
Oversized log? WTF! If it's oversized, maybe what you bought isn't a sawmill.
Your comment makes you seem small. I wish you the best.
@@TonysTractorAdventure - And my best to you too. Call it what it is, a hobby mill.
Too long to cut a board
Ok
You need to get a real can’t hook, not that piece of junk that you’re using.
The old sawyer, Lee Gibbs
This is one of the most rinks dink setups I have ever seen . Instead of making videos,you need to spend some time getting your mill set up properly.
Lee Gibbs
Thank you for your comments. Your wisdom has changed my life.
Less talking, more sawing, please.
Love it
I love this video, and now I know other people also make mistakes from time to time, as I do. Thanks for sharing the good with the very bad. I also love the teamwork and support you all give each other. By the way, the easiest way to fix the grapple problem is to have two grapples. You know, his grapple at the sawmill and her grapple at the house. Donald @ #moneypithomestead
Glad you enjoyed it! I need two grapples!
Building wit these boards you are cutting ?
Yes
