A friends 14 yo daughter was recently paralyzed. She wanted to know if we all from PA talk like me so I told her to watch your videos.
Her verdict is she can understand YOU, but I make up my own "language" as I go.
On a personal note, I'd say you were more informative about the LT40 than Wood-Mizer.
You know you are doing things right in life when others seek you for knowledge and experiences. Much respect to your entire family.
Antonio. Best of luck to you.
Thanks Shain
EM teaching guys the way forward in the lumber business ...... i love it.
I hope Woodmizer sponsors your video channnel. Great Job!
Great video! Better instructions than the actual Wood-Mizer videos! Awesome job!!
Holy moly, that is nearly as complicated as flying a small plane. I am impressed with your finesse operating the machine.
That was awesome. You are a teacher and now have had your 1st student, Antonio. Welcome to the ranks of Jedi.
Everybody show Antonio some love, looks like he’s got some good mini excavator & tractor content.
I think you mean the best. Thanks man!
Hope Antonio realizes what a good teacher he had , probably hard for him to concentrate having Em that close
Great teacher. Listen buddy I was on a business trip... no funny business!
😆👍
" BORED ? drawback" must be spell checker. Love your channel, keep up the great content.
Probably the most informative video that I have ever seen on the operation on the LT40. Good job and thanks...
The girls never learned to play video games, but…..they are consummate professionals at running a mill. I am very proud. Thank you for the comment. Boss Man.
Your a good teacher! I understood all you talked about 😀
Really good description. Clear concise and with a real operators knowledge of the equipment. Also liked the way you priced the options and explained their neccessity.
Ever thought of become a technical instructor ? You are a really good communicator.
Good teaching skills nice seeing other sawing lumber
Most excellent !!! Teaching others is one of the Best things you can do in life. It is also one of the Best ways to keep learning (as it can allow you to see the same thing, from a different angle) !!! Bravo >insert hands clapping here
Well presented useful information. The question is... is this Antonio a good guy? We can’t be sure but there can be no doubt he is smart.
Great video .....nice to see you passing along your knowledge to other young people that have interest 👍
Nice video especially outstanding background music, The Blues!!!
hi i just started watching your videos a few days ago n watched all of them and waiting for the next one lol. You ladies are awesome workers and the rest of the family to and seem to have lots of energy. Your mother n father did a great job.Say hi to all from Gary.
It seems like a good saw. If I ever need one I'll look into it. I don't like milk in coffee either. I prefer donuts with my coffee. Good luck to both of you!
I for sure agree with all the praise you are getting and I will say you sure have the voice for it. There are several good presenters on youtube but very few,if any,who are better. I have one very minor observation,it's spelled board not bored,and one medium level complaint,the blurr effect is the most overused and unwelcome technique to my old person eyes these days. Now don't get me too far wrong,a good show is still good,it is just a little lessened by blurr effects because incidental/accidental blurr happens plenty already in most youtube vids. Well,that and the fact I've been seeing blurr effects used for about 3Xs your current lifespan in movies and such. Again,love your productions and presentation and I sure hope you and yours don't hate me now. :) Only trying to help.
I appreciate your comment. Em realized she made a spelling error. As far as the “blurr” , I did not see it as I viewed the video. One of our viewers blessed us with a “Go Pro” otherwise we are using a standard phone camera. Boss Man.
@@KenBreon I wonder if it matters what device/s it is viewed on. I watch youtube 99.9% on my PC which is getting old but still plenty good for video.
Thank you! Great presentation!
Good stuff!
Cute, funny, enjoyable, entertaining and interesting. Nice to see my fav rock star, Sam. Hey, where was she during the flood? Glad you all lived to tell the tale. Happy mizering!
Interesting.
Good job
His first taste of coffee ever! He definitely got an education that day!
It was the worst thing I have ever had
@@RoccaDiCambioFarm You are better off not drinking coffee if you can avoid it. Keep life simple. Take if from someone who is addicted to coffee. Hopefully the worst vice I ever have.
@@paullittle4040 Ok yeah I don’t like it anyway. Didn’t even make me feel any different, well maybe that’s because I had half a sip :/ She was bullying me and make me drink it
Made*
@@RoccaDiCambioFarm A young man like yourself probably did not really mind a lovely young lady such as Emerald bulling him into a sip of coffee. Like I said before you got an education that day. You survived so you are better for it. Good luck with the new mill!
Love your channel, we watch and like each video with fail. We would love to know more about your labeling system, the bar code labels in the end of each log. Hey that would be a GREAT video as well. Keep up the great videos. We have a 2021 Woodmizer LT35HD and love it. Thanks, Glenn from Beaver Creek Wood Works, Savannah, Georgia USA
Just found your channel and love the content. I just ordered an lt40 standard, yesterday, with the 38hp engine, accuset 2, debarker, 2 extra side supports and the board return. The command control option was very tempting and only a $1605 upgrade, with my configuration, but it limits you to only being able to add a 6’ extension. After watching your videos and reading various threads on the Forestry Forum, I’m calling first thing Monday to add the lubemizer.
I've run an LT40 on my homestead for 30 years. 18hp Briggs engine, no hydraulics, setworks, de-barker, etc, and probably cut a million board feet on it.
Thanks! Lots of great info here. Haha. At 3:10, the overlay text when you were discussing options, I think you meant "board drawback" rather than "bored drawback." Or maybe you were bored it at the moment 🙂?!
Training you guys are so awesome.
Just bought a Lt 40 super- used- 2000... Been wanting this for a long time... I do all sorts of tongue and groove.. Have the machines that make it ..Even the butt ends are T & G .. Have a 40 acre solid hardwood forest in U^P of Michigan... Going to Pick up the saw mill on my way there in May [spend winters/spring in Pennsylvania.. Never had one but now i can go 360 from cutting the tree to T & G finished product... What a better place to start then Beginners guide to operating a Lt40 Woodmizer!.Now I will not be buying my lumber from the sawmill anymore.
I too am from Vt.
Love the music and awesome camera work
WM 40 - Good innovations ours 1991 vintage .I've been working with it a lot , but now litle. Maintenance I do myself, amortizing a bit quickly. I swithched to firewood produkction. Greeting
Girls and women's are a beautiful sight on this planet earth
That was so much fun. Best video on the channel 😉
Love this video ladies, you did a outstanding job with your student.
I run a lt40 wide hydraulic as well and love it.
Hopefully upgrading to the supper 70 wide soon!🌳🌲👷♂️🧡👌👍
We hope to upgrade to the 70 in a couple of years. I hope to put the girls in a heated enclosed space and hire someone to swamp. They have earned it. Let us know if you upgrade and what you think of the machine. Boss Man.
Copy that buddy!
Log safely!🌲👌🧡
Somebody was talking to a boy!
Good job explaining it. Don't believe he likes coffee 😂😂😂😂
Billy!!
Hey teacher have a nice lesson or teaching lesson
Very interesting, thanks . . .
10x better than mike morgans channel
Outdoors with the Breon’s
👏👏👏👏👏👏✌
I can't believe woodmiser charges you almost $800 for a 5 gallon jug and some clear hose and a valve
Lol, its a lil more than that, you get the jug, hose and valve free.
But the electronics and pump to precisly meter the blade coolant costs 800
I agree. There is profiteering and then there is exploitative gouging.
I had to have a chuckle at the bored drawback. A totally different thing to a board drawback. When it popped up on the video at 3:09 I thought wtf is that. Then I realised it was a typo.
How long to get competent on the mill? Antonio did look like he was progressing but there was definitely some hesitation.
The mill wasn’t that hard to operate, it was the Accuset 2 that was confusing. Auto down, pattern, etc.
Drawing the boards back a bizzillion times does get boring... Bored drawback is fitting...
I would want Samantha to train me 😍
It may be a bit early but what would you like to do to expand the business even before you take over from your dad?
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great video! Are your head phones for 2 way communication? Or for the video? Thanks and keep on sawing!
For communication, they worked great
I hope you're getting a monetary sum from the manufacturer of the LT40 or at least a discount on an upgrade for this video!!! Free advertising for them!

I would say that number one on the list before even turning on the machine is to have the proper safety wear and equipment. Gloves, eye protection, hearing protection, no loose clothing that can get caught in moving parts. I would seriously consider having a pre-work job briefing with everyone involved. Things to be discussed, what we will be doing, who will be doing what, how we will do it, and how we can make the job safer and minimize risks. Other things are how to disable and lock out power supplies while performing maintenance on the machine. Lock out procedures should be discussed so no one turns on the power and tries to operate the machine when it is down. The saw should be locked out of the power supply while servicing and changing the blade, or machinery. Sure, I know, many people will say, oh that is going too far, anyone should know these commonsense items, but you would be surprised how many injury accidents occur because someone skipped or missed a very basic aspect of safety. Can you tell I am a retired railroad supervisor? When you set a goal for zero incidents or injuries, these are the types of things that are required. Hyper awareness and hyper communication. It would also be a good idea to set up and establish a way for ANYONE to stop the line if there is a question if there is a question of general operations or safety.
Can you tell me where to find the headsets with the microphones?
Wondering if the mics on your ear protection is for communication back and forth and if it is what brand do you use?
Yes sir, they work great when they fit in your freakin ear!
Awesome any idea where to order them?
Amazon!
@@lumbercapitallogyard Now your stealing my comments 😆 WOW
Haha great video by the way ! What brand you guys using?
What’s the headset you are using and is it a two way radio as well?
It’s from Amazon and it’s meant for motorcycle communication I believe.. Worked great!
who is the acoustic fingerstyle player?
Is he from almost Italian he looked familiar
Haha no way, good guess. Yes the one and only
Well howdy from Montana amigo i also have a sawmill
@@tjcustommilling3279 Howdy! Cool, what kind?
@@RoccaDiCambioFarm woodland mills hm130 max manual its simple but I can cut a 30 inch wide slabs if I want and I stay busy as can be trying to fill orders
@@tjcustommilling3279 Nice, I’ve heard of the brand but don’t know the mill. That’s great!
The options pricing that you have described reminds me of how cars used to be sold when manufacturers wanted to advertise an apparently low price for what was called a basic model. Many of these options were actually almost essential to optimal, good, safe performance for the cars, and it sounds as if the pricing of this wood mill is much the same, where the two options you have listed as adding up to several thousands of dollars sound to be necessary integral features for optimal and even safe working of this mill.
So how about your timber yard pricing its products in the much same way as this mill was priced. You could advertise board feet of wood in any dimensions required by customers but set at a price that refers to it in its original state as part of a trunk, bark and all. You could then have a priced option for cutting lengths, widths, and even depths, or for trimming the boards and so on, and none of these stupid sounding options could be regarded as false pricing based on the original offer.
Sorry, but this optional sales crap really pisses me off, and I see many companies selling good products that shoot themselves in the foot because the sales team and/or company owners regard their customers as idiots.
Car hire prices with insurance/tank/cleaning/mileage options is another example of this type of sales pitch, and I am amazed that these companies still attract customers when these smart-ass sales techniques are designed treat them as fools.
Now, was there an option to buy a filler cap for the gas tank on this mill, or to have another colour, or perhaps metallic paint.
If you debark your logs, you don't need to buy a debarker.. In my case, I drop the trees & can move them to the logging deck without them getting muddy or the bark impaled by gravel, so why would I want to pay for a debarker?
Same with some other upgrades. Some people don't need all the bells & whistles..

Just not your coffee.
Excuse me , what is all that white stuff everywhere ? why is there smoke coming from your mouth every time you breathe? Thanks for the videos, Your friend from the deep south.
Their great grandparents chain smoked so many cigars that the grandchildren are still exhaling smoke. 👍🙂
It was 10 degrees!!
I worked in a sawmill for 35 years. I won't be buying one.
You may want to edit the Bored Draw back to Board Draw back. You are much too busy to ever get bored.
You need to sale him your mill and go buy you a LT70. he is kind of cute does he have a girlfriend. hint, hint
George buddy we were talking about you!!
I was expecting to see tight yoga pants.
