  • What’s up TH-cam! Merry Christmas from the Helmsburg Sawmill! I’m tearing through some 14-16 ft Poplar to get a load of grade lumber done before the holidays! I’ve not uploaded a video yet where I’ve exceeded the board yield in a given time. And as the day went on, I just got faster. I hope you enjoy today’s video! And everyone stay safe

    My dad asked me if he upgraded to an all hydraulic mill with vertical Edgers, would I stay on & run it. I declined as I thought at the time it wouldn’t have worked out at the location we were at. Watching you makes me wish I would have said yes. I’m getting my fix now in retirement running an m 14 Foley Belsaw tractor pto mill. Loving it. Love watching you.

    Best sawing video due to your double blade being on top and bottom to saw two logs at one at a time that is the best type of saw because it makes two logs in one pass even if the log is two sizeses two larger than the saw size to large for the saw blade ! Two to size of the log a twenty inch thick log can be cut in one pass by a saw blade that is 18 inch in diameter ! Saves one cut down to one pass ! X just great engendering I done by one pass !!

    Poplar has ? 7 ? varieties I think worldwide, so my experience with milling the *introduced Scandinavian poplars* here in Australia may be a different species to yours.
    Cutting poplar for me was really weird compared to the plantation Radiata Pine (F5-F12 softwood) and the indigenous Aussie Hardwoods (F15-F57) I've milled over the years.
    It is really fluffy, fibrous, not dusty or chippy, it's like cutting cotton or wool!
    Poplars are like sponges. It was soaking wet. There was a massive spray of water over everything in my milling shed! It was so heavy when tailing out!
    It shrinks about 20%, meaning you have to cut way oversize.
    It warps like hell during drying and seasoning. I reckon I lost 20% of the rough sawn boards from twist and bow and cup.
    But once dried and dressed it is very strong and fibrous and beautiful to work with for building and joinery, way lighter and stronger than pine.
    Was it worth it? Yes, because I got all my trees for free. Poplars get a borer and would randomly drop branches on sheds and horses so the farmers were very pleased to have them taken away. Or else they'd just fell them and pile burn them out of hatred for that species. Funnily, they were planted here around the river lands in the 70s as swamp drainers. Yeah, they are like drinking straws. But 30 years later farmers were even paying to get them off their property cos they just fell over randomly. A silly experiment gone wrong. I was the only person in my state I ever heard of milling them. Yes, they were very un-popular

    it would be more interesting and informative if you were to narrate what you're doing, how you calculate the width of the boards and what type of boards you are cutting. for example are you cutting for a particular client? and why you mainly cut 1 inch boards, why not 2 inch?
    also how do you use the laser or does the machine do it automatically?

    I run a similar type mill just different brand the only thing with the vertical edger is there’s a little more waste a lot of the boards can still be select or fas leaving more wane on each board I understand to keep production up you only have 2 seconds to decide how your going to edge each board

      So sell our own 1” stock. All of our stuff is air dried. If you’re looking for lumber that doesn’t shrink, kiln dried is better. The air dryed is extremely good for decking, siding, and tbh I think it looks fine for inside interior

    You typically turn logs to the bed rather than the knees. I often see mills have problems with out of square logs when they turn to the knees. IS that why you usually turn to the bed?

    • @Helmsburgsawmill
      @Helmsburgsawmill  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      So if I’m sawing our stock and going for an item width we don’t have as much of, I’ll saw the way you’re talking about. I’ll take the two opposing sides off so I can set my block thickness and rip off those desired widths from a nice clean block. But when I’m sawing Grade and I’m just trying to reduce the log into boards, i like doing the method in this video. I get very square blocks both ways:) but you’re right, I’ve seen the same thing

      How would coffee minimize wood fiber waste?

    I know nothing about sawmills and wonder why you don't just saw from one side to the back side but instead flip the log.

      Sawing for the best grade of lumber. It’s the way the growth rings go in the boards

    Slow compared to the mill I run, and you are wasting a lot of lumber with that edger and with how heavy you are slabbing.

      What kind of mill you run, and do you cut hardwood or softwood?

    How do you figure this is a 100% manual mill. This is a left hand carriage with air dogs , trip dogs on bottom, a vertical edger , all operated by electronics and computer set works. That is not a manual mill . Ive been a sawyer for 32 years and in the sawmill buisness for 52 + years. Ive sawn on a manual mill. I learned how to saw on a 00 lane mill when i was 13 . You are not a sawyer , you are a sawmill operator.

      No air dogs... hydraulic. I control the carriage with a hydraulic arm. I don’t have computer set works. I control every functioning mechanism
