The lighting was fine. There is nothing more manly than milling wood! My late Dad had a DeWalt saw in the garage are was always doing some woodworking project. The sound of the buzzsaw, the smell of the wood, the sawdust everywhere....good childhood memories! My Dad could build ANYTHING!
Just a thought: I"m in my mid 70's and vividly remember my parents hanging small bags of cedar shavings in the closets to keep any bugs out. While watching you make the cuts I saw all that cedar dust going on the ground and wondered if that couldn't be used the same way. It might not net much $$ but I haven't seen anyone selling that products for 50 years.
As the old saying goes, never an ill wind that someone doesn't benefit, and it has, given you some lovely cedar, congratulations. That new shed also keeps the sun off your head as well as keeping your saw in the dry, time and money well spent.
Good looking cedar you milled up there. It must be quite a treat to have a roof over your head while milling. The shade will be appreciated come the summer months.
lighting was good and thank you for letting me watch and hopes that you show your house while your working on it been a builder all my life and know what your doing and wished we had saw mills like yours back in my day, retired now old builder.
The cedar would have made some mighty fine old school folding Adirondack chairs. I appreciate your videos and the lighting was fine. I could smell the cedar from here.
A wonderful video- very interesting indeed. Gorgeous cedar, enjoyed watching how you took a felled tree and milled it into something very useful. Very rewarding work; love your skill in felling, dragging, loading onto the saw, and the tools you used. Thank you for the video- bonus points for the drone camera work!
Fall Line Ridge also cedar is the only wood you can put the shavings in Dog beds, livestock beds & it repels fleas, mosquitoes, insects, moths & other bugs. 😉👍
Rick Harper you are right that’s one reason why people line their closets with cedar. The other reason they line their closets in it is Moths will not get near cedar so therefore they will not eat holes in your clothes if you have Cedar lined closets. 😉😁
@@CCRider5312 rodents like mice and rats also. Cedar is toxic to them. spread the sawdust from cedar around the foundation outside of your home and they just won't come in. There are 2 problems with cedar though, 1) It is an allergen to many people, myself and one of my sisters are allergic to cedar. According to my allergist it is actually a very common allergy. 2) It's wonderful scent is an asthma trigger. Cedar shakes are a 25 year roof. Cedar siding are a 25 year siding. not having to worry a lot about the roof for 25 years is a good thing.
I could smell the cedar while watching the video. Amazing how our senses kick in from woodworking in past! Your efforts would also make a great cedar chest or line a closet to keep the moths out! Beautiful wood grain showed with water! You make such great engaging video's from the angles you place your camera. Keep it up, your my favorite woodworking channel. Consider catching the water to use as weather permits and resources allow.
I noticed as you were sawing that it was your first log to be milled in the new saw shed. Cedar is my favorite to mill as well, I always keep wishing for bigger logs. I thought the video was great and the back light was not a problem. I was tickled to see your long beam in on of the shots, glad to see the mill under cover.
That long beam worked out great! Yes, this was the first proper log in the new shed. I cut some cookies last week, but this was the first real log. Thanks for stopping by, Wayne.
Fall Line Ridge oh man I just love cedar wood the red grain is soo pretty and it smells soo good the lighting was good I could see all details just fine. The shed is very nice adding the cedar boards to it will look and smell soo nice and be very durable. Thanks for the nice video be blessed with loving care and grace.
Thank you for showing the woodmizer at work. This was a great advertisement for their saws. You did everything perfectly. Thanks for this and the lighting was just fine.
The lighting was fine. My wife said so. I could almost smell the cedar while you were sawing it. I love cedar too. It grows well here in east Texas. Can't find many big ones though.
You may not realize how valuable cedar is when it comes to the experimental aircraft (home built aircraft) is! Check with WICKS AIRCRAFT SUPPLY! HOW ABOUT HANGING A BAG AND COLLECTING ALL THE SAWDUST AND SELLING THE BAGS AS CLOSIT OR CHEST ODERIZERS! ENJOYED THE VIDEO PEACE
Wow, that wood is just too pretty for "the back of the shed." I'd be using it for a living room coffee table, a narrow table in back of the couch for holding lamps, a dining room table, a thick piece for a fireplace mantle, round pieces for wall clocks, front and back doors, and more!
Love it. Our entertainment table is 12' long 14" eastern red cedar with epoxy in knot holes and its my wifes favorite thing ive made but it will dull blades fast. Nice work bud.
As I saw the slices of the wood take shape I was thinking I would love to make a rather long table top surface with them. Beautiful wood. Thanks for posting this type of video.
LOVIT, lighting was good, may need some help when you put that Beautiful Cedar on that back Wall ! Suggestion, make a 4’ spreader Bar and use two log hooks and using a chain across the top from end too end you can easily carry your logs and keep the dirt from grinding into the bark, with the chain across the Top you can simply move your hook left or right on the chain links to help level the load ! Just a thought ! Thx’s for Sharing
Lighting was fine. Nothing so dark that you were wondering what was going on. Beautiful milled wood. I’d like to have those first pieces you cut off with bark and sapwood.
Impressed with the machinery. Looks a lot easier to use then our neighbor. Using a chain saw supported horizontal to cut the long plank cut. The log itself is moved along bench by pulley system passing the chainsaw blade. Can smell the Cedar!
As always - another great video and the lighting was perfect. I could watch this stuff all day if the lord would let me. Now on to my own projects. Keep up the great work and thank you for your effort in making these videos. God bless.
I replaced some lap siding that was Cedar. Super expensive to use, and extra absorbent when painted. Took 3 coats to get a nice finish on the wood. Personally I would have used a protective stain or something along those lines but it was up to the person who owned the home. I also as a contractor use Cedar Oil purchase it by the gallon, put it in foggers to kill roaches and bed bugs. Also carry a spray bottle of it. Safe to drink, won't harm children or kids. Kills everything by choking the insect out. Spiders, roaches, bed bugs, fleas, ticks, ants, pincher bugs. It was formulated by the military to combat biting insects. It's cool you have your own portable mill, makes things easier when you can just pluck what you need from the site. Nice video. I hit the like button for ya.
That begs for a cedar chest. We have one with wood that looks just like that - the beautiful deep red, and even at 80 years it still smells great. And the moths HATE IT! Well, I'm not real keen on them either, so we're even.
Fun to watch, wish I was 50 years younger to give it a go. Lighting looked good to me. Wood-Mizer should be sponsoring you. You have sold me on their machines.
I see a dining table "extraordinaire" in that one. Lighting was fine IMO. One question though, when you were "handling" that saw dust, was that to gauge blade sharpness?
Very cool, well done... Oh, the lighting was perfect. I should know In my younger days I did Lighting on film projects, even though I am an audio engineer. Can't wait to see the shed when it's finished.
Lighting was good, could see the grain of the wood very nicely. I found it very interesting and entertaining. I play the piano and aside from the cast iron plate that holds the strings, just about everything else on a piano is various different kinds of wood. A brand new piano smells wonderful, the aroma of all the different kinds of wood.
Lighting was fine, could see everything. Great job of cutting. I've always loved cedar. For some reason termites don't like it. This kind of wood, is good for making cedar chest. You're right, smells good and it's so colorful, too.

There's a happy man making a living doing what he likes + how he likes. I can feel the sun and warmth. and smell the fresh air.
As the old saying goes, never an ill wind that someone doesn't benefit, and it has, given you some lovely cedar, congratulations. That new shed also keeps the sun off your head as well as keeping your saw in the dry, time and money well spent.
The old saying is, "Tis an ill wind that blows no good", therefore the wind that brought down this tree wasn't an "ill" wind.....
Good looking cedar you milled up there. It must be quite a treat to have a roof over your head while milling. The shade will be appreciated come the summer months.
Yes it will. I'm especially looking forward to it on 95 degree sunny days,
lighting was good and thank you for letting me watch and hopes that you show your house while your working on it been a builder all my life and know what your doing and wished we had saw mills like yours back in my day, retired now old builder.
Jeff Behn you took the words right out of my mouth. Its amazing and you can take all his methods back 200 years or so with mules ect. Great vid.
I love cedar I love thesmell of it and watching your finished product I'm impressed
The shed is looking great! I wish I could get my hands on an Eastern Red log.
The cedar would have made some mighty fine old school folding Adirondack chairs. I appreciate your videos and the lighting was fine. I could smell the cedar from here.
Jay MacKenzie I agree with you 100 % the lighting was fine and to see and smell the cedar wood was fantastic.

Nothing like Cedar for color !! 👍
Make a beautiful Cedar Chest!
It's wonderful stuff.
I agree, and the smell of the wood is unbelievable!!!

Hard to beat the beauty of southern red cedar....or the smell. Another great video! PS All the trees are budding out round here.
We've got some buds coming out too. Greening pastures as well. Thanks for stopping by!
You make your job look like fun. I love watching your videos.
What a great find. Youve done a fabulous job sawing it.
Perfect and the saw house is wonderful and the lighting Perfect!
Lighting was fine, I agree about cedar being good wood to work with. Got some nice slabs there!
Lighting was ok! Boards look awesome and I bet they smell great 👍!
The smell was amazing. It never gets old.
Looked great as far as lighting. Very easy to see. Beautiful log.
Beautiful lumber, the lighting was great.

Great stuff enjoyed that lighting is great, we have a cedar closet love it very beautiful!!!
Thank you. It was a very good video. The light was on, not to wary, Cedar is such a beautiful wood.

You've made a nice job of the shed and yes the lighting good. You've got enough walking and maneuvering room too. Just what you needed to start with.
It's a huge upgrade for sure.
Lighting was fine. That was a beautiful log!
Oh WoW that’s absolutely gorgeous! I bet the smell is amazing 😉

plant 5 or more for every one taken. love that red cedar... beautiful.
In my state they're an invasive species. I cut as many of them as I can.
Lighting was fine. Nothing so dark that you were wondering what was going on. Beautiful milled wood. I’d like to have those first pieces you cut off with bark and sapwood.
That cedar would make such a beautiful instrument.
Great video and the lighting was fine,would love to make a Cedar chest out of that beautiful slab.
Beautiful wood Thanks for showing.
I found it really interesting to see how the various "tools of the trade" are used. Archimedes would be proud! :) Also, YAY for the sawmill cat!
Archimedes ?
a very chonky cat too
...I JUST LOVE KITTY CATS!!!
@@rabirai3280 “Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I will move the world.” Eureka! 😎
Good job all around!! That is beautiful lumber !! R and W
Wow! Beautiful stuff!
Man, that saw gets after it! Great video and some amazing looking cedar!
Thank you 🤗 Greetings from Austria
Beautiful log. I can smell it from Georgia!
Fantastic video!!! Fantastic lumber!!!!
Lighting was great. Nice wood. Cool video. Thanks
Absolutely beautiful
Nice. Thanks for showing us. Take care.
That I get to watch beautiful videos like this is why I love TH-cam.
Lighting not bad ... beautiful lumber!
Could watch this all day
Very cool. Love the colour.
The lighting was excellent.
Lighting was perfect 👌 great video and awesome sawmill
Glad to see the mill cat keeping an eye on things. I can smell that board all the way here in Texas! Rock on.
He makes a pretty good foreman.
Impressed with the machinery. Looks a lot easier to use then our neighbor. Using a chain saw supported horizontal to cut the long plank cut. The log itself is moved along bench by pulley system passing the chainsaw blade. Can smell the Cedar!
I love ceder. I hate to see a tree like that fall. Im glad that you will put it to good use.

Love red cedar,wish I had that whole log ,i,m a wood turner,would love all those bowl blanks...
The lighting was fine. I watched the build of the shed and it looks impressive, too.
Thank you!
Absolutely beautiful! Out here in Eastern Oregon, my favorite logs to saw is Western juniper which is very much like the cedar in this video.
Hey Darrel! Thanks for stopping by.
Is nobody going to talk about the drone footage at the beginning of the video? Amazing!!
Thank you!
I can smell it now.. couple years ago I milled 700 board feet of cedar.. never got tired of the smell.. love your set up..
It's wonderful stuff.
Looked great!! Beautiful wood!!
Thank you for sharing your great video. Have a great day.
Very well done; very professional. And I loved your feline helper!
Wow that's beautiful.
I'd have to find a way to collect that sawdust cleanly for projects. It's beautiful. Lighting was good. Nice camera angles too.
That would make a gorgeous beginning of a cedar chest. Pretty pretty looking wood.
That begs for a cedar chest. We have one with wood that looks just like that - the beautiful deep red, and even at 80 years it still smells great. And the moths HATE IT! Well, I'm not real keen on them either, so we're even.

Nice looking cedar
That has to smell wonderful!
Very nice! I have a friend in Missouri that has the same milling machine. I need to talk him into a overhead roof. Nice job!
Que maravilha morar num lugar deste e ter essas ferramentas,parabéns!

Thanks! Got a call from your friend in NC today. I'll call him, back tomorrow. Appreciate it!

Just built a pergola from red cedar. Lighting was fine. Keep up the great videos.
the lighting was really really good and clear brother.
