Some of that final destination stuff

I helped a man that had a ground mill and one of his favorite sayings was , " it don't pay much boys but it ll make a man out of ya. No idea I'd spend 33 years sawfiling for IP and West Fraser.

I like your channel ! I liked Mike and Mothers channel also. You can always saw your own lumber for a building and side it in wood, just put the tin on the roof. Keep up the good work. Thank you for sharing.

Love this old mill. I live close to Weaverville and my Papaw and Dad had a mill like that and I miss it. I bought a portable mill but can't get time to use it. A good past time.

Mike is proud of you for what you have done with the mill because you are carrying on his tradition and standard for excellence. Don't let the haters get you down Shannon. I personally like what I see and how you do things. Everyone starts at the bottom and has to claw their way to the top. You got this made in the shade with a good cold glass of lemonade. BTW, STOPSIGN S-standard-T-technical-O-operational-P-procedure for S-super-I-ignorant-G-gnarly-N-nasty logs, limbs and trees

great job love the video

My late father told me the most dangerous thing is a dull knife or saw. Smart man. When he passed he still had all of his fingers. Great video!

Keep up the good work friend, I need to come get some 8x8s from you, for a porch posts

Glad you got it back up and running, I need to make a video myself, mama found out she has breast cancer , I’m sure she will be fine , she’s got the best dr she can get

That’s not the largest blade on TH-cam mine takes a 171” blade lol

is that 21,000 including installation? that don't sound too bad, my wife and her son bought two of those small storage sheds and that cost right at 20,000.

I sure enjoy watching... my leg is healing and I will turn 83 this month...

Another fun video!

Sure looks to me like you know what you’re doing. I enjoyed the video.

Def not a yankee lol. I like the intro! What a nice change and interesting to watch! Nice sawing as always. I like the story you shared 💗 - your biggest fan

Nice video. Definitely my favorite channel. Sawmilling is rad and your a cool dude.

Praying you get your shed. ❤❤❤

Rance here, that 60” circle saw really gets at those logs

hi there been working on my mills for over 35 years and they are never done , most likely wont . but i am ok with that . good show thanks and best to all john

Missed what has happened to the #1 headblock that it needs being chained up. ??

We dearly remember Mrs. McCoy as "Mother". She was special to us.

Great sawing, mill is cutting nice lumber.

As far as videos, I liked Mike's but yours are better! The different camera angles you use, as well as the editing, brings it all alive. Every video you put out shows an increase in your skill and confidence! I think Chad missed a golden opportunity in not taking over the mill when Mike died. Do you have anyone lined up to step into your boots when you are gone?

I watched his videos and enjoy him. Glad you have it and put it to use. Have you set up the edger yet ? She did a lot with him and was good to see a family working together.

Our shed is about 30 feet wide and 70 feet long and the only metal bought was for over the husk one year we had the scratch. The rest of the off bearing side is repurposed from a pole barn I salvaged which was erected during Vietnam! The infeed end is getting covered this fall we got the materials more salvage and that’s how we can afford to do it. We set up the mill in 2016 and it’s still not fully covered so don’t feel bad! Now we extended it to 85’ long for the edger! Thanks Mark 😂😂😂 it’s a labor of love and patience. Be well Shannon

I love your channel I enjoyed your learning process havein worked a sawmill for 35 years I know the problems first hand. I think you are doing fine

Watched him for years loved him and his wife

great video Shannon , we are glad you brought the old Frick back to life and running again!

Good info, your comfort with the mill grows daily, thanks.

Nice video! Enjoyed the video as always

Is your blade chattering between the guides

Where you located

Both my grandpaws had saw mills when I was growing up got to work a bunch around them they were Frick mills 58" blades, dangerous work but alsome lumber..stay safe guy's, great video..

awesome sawmill work i hope you are always well there my friend. greetings woodworking

I wish I knew what this wood is called, sir.

They were enormous!! Are they the biggest beams you've ever produced? Watching from Melbourne, Australia

When your tailing a busy saw its usualy all you can do to keep up with the slabs . let the other guy stack the lumber. The sawers life is in the hands of the tailer.

Don't let the fools of the world get you down. Just because they are unhappy, self-centered and rude doesn't you have to be the same way. I liker what I hear.

Appreciate all the extra work you do to get the different camera angles and careful editing to put the good videos together for us. You have the knack to do that. It's great to see the progress you have made with Mike McCoy's mill. His legend continues. Hope that Mother is doing well. Maybe she would come by some day and off-bare for you. That would be a treat.

1st one was a joke ,done watching 😮

I like that bit of humor, some comments sure get me laughin’. I spent a bit of time down south and so has my wife she did a lot of trail work at the state parks Hanging Rock and such. I’ve had friends most of my life from down south through caving exploration when I was younger. I’ve always enjoyed the cultural differences make no mistake I can’t help it I’m a yankee through and through but I what I love most when I travel is the wonderful people all over America. Nice sawing Shannon thanks for the chuckle 😂

Break down and build a set of steps to the cab even if they are wooden you are doing a good job

For whatever reason watching a sawmill run brings me back. Thank you for sharing.

I had to speed you up to 2X to see if he was right. Not quite a New Yorker drawl.

Well I hate to be the one to tell you but you live north of i20 you are a yanky to us down here in the south swamps of Alabama and Florida but you can’t help where you were born and everybody can’t be blessed to be born down here in the land of the simanole and the cheeks but God Bless Y’all and have a great day and you don’t sound like you are from the commy state of ny

Who are your biggest customers, and what species do they prefer?

Pretty nice logs, good lumber! Your sawing talents and video editing are improving. Thanks.

Like to watch you run that old Mcoy mill. You have come a long way from when you started! Like that you slowed down the cutting now too. Just an old Yank from MN and you keep milling!!! TERRY

That's funny! There was a channel, I don't remember the name, but the guy had such a huge and slow southern drawl that I had to double speed it otherwise I would be thinking 'come on man, you can do it, spit the words out'. Compared to that guy you do sound like a New Yorker 🤣
