I run two LT70 Woodmizer Sawmills one of them is extended to 56 ft. and a Lucas dedicated slabber sawmill. With lots of support equipment. As long as the log isn't a redwood or sequoia from the pacific NW just bring it to me and we will make something from it.

Splitting a 42 inch poplar log. 661 compared to 500I

Here I am splitting a yellow poplar log in half with a chainsaw. As it is a little to big for my sawmill.

Miss your videos Jake - excellent lessons you taught me. Thanks from Norfolk, U.k.
I enjoyed making the videos but they really hinder getting any production. Then I learned how much I was helping my competition of other sawmills just down the road. Kind of stings when you learn that you are sharpening the knife that they are using to stab you in the back with.
@@customsawyer2526 Completely understand. Protecting your business has to be the priority. For this reason proper sawmilling knowledge is like gold dust, which made your contribution all the more valuable. Don't let the bastards grind you down!
Well done video! Thanks for posting!
Do you have to surface on four sides first?
I do on my flooring as I want a nicer finish that you get with smaller bites. On paneling I don't worry about it. If you look at the infeed side they are going in rough.
Thanks, video well done
Hi papa Jake!!!
Hey Sawyer
Good video Mr. Dean.
What dust collector are you using?
On the Slabmizer I'm just using a cheap small one from Harbor Freight.
Interesting. Thanks for sharing.
What do you do with all those cutoff edges?
I think I need to adjust my blade guide arm after seeing this. Simple set on an LT40 is great unless you have it set for one inch and accidentally hit it mid way through a log. Thank you for going through all of these settings.
Blade guide arm is a little different on a LT40. Still needs to be adjusted right for the lumber and timbers to come out right.
@@customsawyer2526 the manual I have goes into the details on how to make the adjustment. There is definitely something misaligned though because the head started shaking after my accidentally bumping the down head lever mid log with 1” drop setting. It threw the blade off the wheels when that event occurred but didn’t break… but now shakes even with new wheel belts, new blade, and also checked the drive belt setting. It was like a sewing machine before.
@@willmegehee What shakes? The blade guide arm when you grab it. The mill head?
@@customsawyer2526 the blade guide arm is causing the shaking the best I can tell. I may have a loose adjustment wheel on the blade guide arm. I’m going to check the blade alignment and blade guide tomorrow.
VERY impressive.
What model is this planner ?
It is a M800 I think. Can't remember for sure.
nice job! what kind of power do you use? 1ph or 3ph?
I have both. The Slabmizer is a single ph. machine. The planers in the background is 3ph.
Why havnt we seen this machine before? looks pretty new
I bought it new right at a year ago. Wish I could use it more than I do.
Great video, thanks for showing us around.
Amazing! The hydraulic system is really sweet!
Hey Buddy 😂
You have to have a good hose, it’s to far to shovel it out to the pile. 😂😂
Wow you can see the sawdust flying through there. Seems like it would be fun just to take it off the saw and suck up what's on the ground like a giant shop vac
I've had to do that a few times. It's only fun for about 5 minutes or so.
Super useful information!
Great video. thanks!
Great video. Loved that you used sheathing for your baffles, gonna start doing that myself!
Thanks for explaining the blade alignment
Excellent work. The operation sure has come along.
I'm new with alt30 my blade brides I put a different blade and now it's sinking down it keeps going down
Sounds like the mill is out of alignment. Possibly set is wrong on the blade
Need some advice. I'm sawing white oak for trailer decking. Can I screw it down green an put diesel and oil on it . Or do I have to let it dry first?
I recommend screwing it down green. Let it dry in place for a couple of months and then spray it top and bottom.
@@customsawyer2526 thanks. That what I was hoping you would say.
Washington state chiming in here... appericiate all your content! Knowledge, experience and respect 🙏. I'm piddeling around with my 2013 lt40 and Powermatic 180. Would love to come see youe operation, almost retired so time to travel around. Thank you!
we have tons of ambroshia maple . most of our tree had the bugs in them at one point... Beautifull stuff for sure..
Hi! Discovered you through Nathan/Out Of The Woods, and I'm grateful for it... Keep up the great work.
bout time you put something out, keep it up
The cameras and editing take a lot of time away form production. Thanks for noticing.
I gots me one of them there Woodmizer sawmills and I want to be like Jake Dean when I grow up, because it looks like to me he's got it made.
That's an amazing machine.
Yes Sir. It leaves a nice finish too.
Good video. Thanks for taking us along.
Beautiful looking slabs! Does walnut normally split down the middle like some of those slabs or was there something unique about those?
Yes Walnut is bad about splitting. So is Cherry.
You got a lot of serious equipment. I know that means a lot of serious maintenance. Great video, God bless
Nice looking dog . I have a question . Do you perfer silver tip blades over double hard . Was thinking of going to silver tip . Wasnt sure if i would be dissapointed or not been running .055x 1 1/4 double hard . Any info you can give will be helpful thanls!
I run the .055x1.5 silvertips. They can't take as abrasive material as Double hard but they can be sharpened and run again a couple more times before breaking. If you are in mostly dirty logs than get the double hard. If most of your logs are clean or you have a debarker than give the silver tips a try. Hope this helps.
Awesome... Please raise the bar on Video quality! 360 Horizontal lines of resolution is not so great, and I want to see all your gear and the back ground in all it's spender... Keep up the great work.
I'm thinking on something like this. I use a router table for this. Takes forever. I might have split that raised edge with the other side. Good show man.
nice free hand work
Your obviously skilled on your equipment, & good taste in your tools around the yard! 💪💪👍🌲🧡🧡🧡
I enjoyed the video. Pretty good hand and eye coordination, great job !
That's a serious piece of equipment. I know first hand how heavy those Cypress logs are. Green Cypress is surprisingly heavy.
That’s a strong loader to
It's a Kawasaki 60. Has about 10000 LBS lift with water in the back tires.When it comes to articulated loaders it's on the small end but is great around my little mill operation.
Nice day for a cab loader
I need a 42 inch poplar log
They are nice to have. This one belongs to a customer.
To a guy who knows nothing about it that was amazing!
It's like trying to cut a 9 foot piece of paper straight with no lines on it.
Nice job and nice looking wood..
got a little purple heart.. nice job.
Yup. Some of it is going to be really nice.
@@customsawyer2526 I had three trees with really dark purple heart i cut in dec. it's stickered up in the killen right now..
Is it worth sawing up for all the work
I figure if that tree can put in that much effort to grow then it is my responsibility to open it up and let it show us what it has inside. Actually don't find it all that much work and I enjoy it.
Nice!
Thanks for watching. I have to get Chief in the next one.
