Alot of people that watch your channel like to see you work on assembling your build that would help you get alot more viewers. People would learn more an understanding how it goes together we the viewers has different ways on how we learn. Just a thought in the future builds. God bless
appreciate the comment. I am working on another one right now and I will keep that in mind..I recently purchased a lathe and a vertical mill to make some of my parts and will also be making some video's of that process, Thanks Larry
Great stuff Larry just what i am looking for ,never mind the noise of the traffic your clearly understood,i will be in touch for parts ,thanks michael
Give me a shout when ready. mention the youtube video for discount. Thanks Larry
Este foi o melhor vídeo que encontrei sobre está Serra até agora parabéns muito bem explicado.
Thank You for the compliment
NiceBuild and design Larry thanks for sharing I really liked. How Adjustable yet solid everything is thanks for all the tips BTW I agree that. I too hadn’t seen anyone use the All Thread Adjustment that you did ( on TH-cam Sawmills )
Glad we could help.thank you
Whole lots of hard work bro.
Thanks for sharing 🙏
Yes it was and I will be putting out a video on another sawmill build soon.. This one is the 158 mill..just about got her finished. Appreciate the comment
Awsome thanks for sharing this .
Np problem. Thanks
Крутая самоделка , мужик ты крутой !
Keep up the good works Buddie i love the effort and skill
Appreciate the comment
Real simple construction I'll finally be able to hit my target dollar figure with your design hopefully I can find the scrap steel for part of it
Good deal, glad we could help. Do have a few parts on my website at txdashcovers.com
Thanks man good video good design I am planning to make one just scale dawn a little for my need
Go for it!
Great project,
Thank You
thanks for the great video and the great information on building a sawmill i am going to build one for farm use and may be sell the extra lumber. thanks and have a great day.
Always like great feedback..I'm not perfect and this is not the perfect video, but I always like trying to help people..with what little knowledge I have..Thank You
@@LarrySbrusch can you send me all the measurements to my e-mail ? If you don't mind please , I will be really thankful. Greetings from Peru
My e-mail: jmr.sisa@gmail.com
@@juanmora7660 Check out my other videos. I have all the measurements listed in it..
Building a giant saw mill
Love to see some images
Sir you are a geniuse
The belt idler is on the wrong side of the drive belt.
awesome thanks
Glad you liked it . appreciate the comment
I like it
Good video........greetings from PLAYA DEL CARMEN....
Thank you.appreciate the comment
@@LarrySbrusch Does the ACME rod chain tensioner consist of two sprockets? If so, are the chain sprocket pulleys adjustable, via an elongated slot in the 2" X 6" angle iron that is welded on the top bar? Would like to build a 144" blade model based off of your build. Thanks Larry, love the simplicity of the blade tensioner.
@@TheBayouChene the acme rod has a fixed pulley on the top of each side and I have a slack adjusting pulley in the middle.
very nice
Thank You
Do us a video on build for waterwell drilling!👍 Any rural inhabitant knows the cost per ft of water well drilling!
I will in the next several months. I am going to be drilling a well at my new place..
Boa tarde amigo vc teria como me passar as medidas desta serra fita em português
great video, thanks! did you ever notice that when you shoot with your back to the fence, the road noise is less on the video? Thanks again!
Yes I did, but we since moved where it is a lot less noisy and I am getting ready to shoot a another sawmill build video.soon..Appreciate the comment
From what I see, correct me if I am wrong, there is none blade-tensionism mechanism as such, but you simply have to tamper with the threaded rods and nuts holding the plate with the idle wheel's pillow bearings, in order to relieve or rise tension on the blade.
you are correct..I can change a blade out in less than 5 minutes and to me that is a plus..It works great for me and is an option for others.. It may not be for everyone..I can say that it is something that an average person can do without having milling equipment to make blade tensioners like other sawmills have.. We appreciate the comment
🤩😘👏super !!!
Appreciate the comment. Thank you. Will me putting out many more videos soon
Looks like you've built yourself a good tool. I'm thinking of building one. No sense in burning trees up as I clean up this property.
I understand. I am building a new house and I have cut a bunch of cedar to finish the inside myself..
Thanks, I've been thinking hard about building one. I need to put a pencil on paper to see the cost.
It’s not hard to do. But the cost of the steel is hard to swallow. Appreciate the comment
Más tarde lo felicito por ese invento
Good deal..thank you
I'm interested in the big wheels or pully what info do you have. Great work thanks
The wheels r are 18-3/4" diameter

Thanks 👍🙏🙏
Glad we could help. Appreciate the comment
ผมกำลังจะสร้างครับขอบคุณครับ
ระบบง่ายดีและไม่ซับซ้อนครับ👌👍
ขอวีดีโอต่อครับให้เข้าใจขอบคุณครับ
Could you tell us what the height of the sawmill is? Also could you explain how the threaded rods work for the raising of the sawmill? Do they go into nuts welded to the tubing? Great videos by the way.
The overall height is 74" . my next build will not be that tall. I will go 65-66" and it should be fine..The threaded rod goes through the main frame and has the matching nut for the threaded rod welded to the underside of it, which in return lift the sawmill head up and down when the sprockets on top are rotated..Hope this helps. if not shoot me another message
Hello Larry, a few questions. How big of trees/slabs can you cut on this mill? Does the 14 hp handle the large stuff?
I have cut slabs that are 46" Wide as long as they are pretty straight and you have to push it a little slower and allow the blade to do it's job,,but it cuts them fine..I could probably go a little bigger.. Most of my cuts are 12-19" and it is a little big for that
Thank you, I really like your build. I've seen almost every DYI sawmill build on TH-cam and I'm going to use your model. Simple but very effective. Great job!
@@DCain-ie3gr ..appreciate the comment. Let me know if I can help you in any way..I have some of the parts needed to build it..www.txdashcovers.com/bbqpitpaac.html
What size square tube for the uprights did you use? I’m trying to figure out what size square tube to use for mine and what size did you use for it to go up and down?
2 x 2 on the mains
Prosił bym o dokładne wymiary
nice build what size pillow blocks?
1" bore on that build..I sell the basic kit at txdashcovers.com under industrial section
Larry what is the threaded rod called and what the sizes ? How long and thread size? Also if you dont mind how tall are the square tubing that the stand is made out of , height ? You had mentioned that you would have moved the unit back another 4" ,can you elaborate what you mean by that ? Thanks love your videos my friend !
The threaded rod is 1/2" diameter.. mine is around 54-56" long..you will need to adjust yours to fit the mill you are building...make sure to keep it lubricated...I believe they called it something like machine screw all thread rod..do not use the regular all thread rod, it will wear out very quickly..
Perfect ,great to know,thank you Larry !
I like what your building. the only thing I see wrong from my perspective is your belt tensioner pulley should be on the bottom so you aren't pulling up on adjustment slot
Appreciate the comment. Thank you
Plus you shouldn't really fit the tensioner on the "loaded" side of the belt either ?
Larry what size are these wheels how much do they cost are they v grove wheels can I buy them from you this is a very good video I would like too build one like this.
They are listed on my website at txdashcovers.com under industrial section. They are balanced 18-3/4” wheels and are v grooved
How did you make chain saw bar shaft i see you two plate pull to titan 1/2 or 1" could pic: Please. AL
I’m confused , I do not use chainsaw on any of my sawmills
what holds the saw head onto the tracks , ???? thanks
Nothing holds the sawmill to the tracks. It floats freely on tracks through the log
Where did you get all those together
I like the kit you're selling from your website, why do you not offer the 1" axle shafts?
That is what I have on my sawmill and it seems to work fine. I am building a new sawmill and I will try the 1-1/4" shafts on it, to see how much of a difference it makes
I didn't read you message correctly..If I went any smaller on axle shafts. I feel that they would flex too much or break on such a big blade
@@LarrySbrusch I would think 1" axle would be good enough with the size wheels your using. From what I've seen if you use a bigger set of band wheels than you might go 1-1/4" shafts.
@@jasonfeasel2726 I can see a little flex in the shaft when I put a lot of tension on it, but so far no issues.I'm still going to try to go a little bigger on this mill I am currently building..Just to experiment
Guess I'll wait and see if it is better before ordering your kit. If so I would want the bigger upgrade.
do you have any idea where I can find wheels the same as you have here in Canada?
No I don’t sorry about that
@@LarrySbrusch thank you for the quick reply
What kind of cost do you think you have in this saw??
I never did really add up all the parts, but I would guess around $1300.00. I recently put a basic parts kit together and I am selling it on my website at TXDashcovers.com under the woodworking industrial section. It's just a basic kit to help buyers take some of the guesswork out of buying and finding all of the parts that I used on my sawmill in one package
No entiendo el idioma pero muy bueno el video
What thickness tubing did you use? and, can you share where you get your blades? Thanks
I will have to go back and measure, But If i remember correctly it was 1/4' & 3/16". I will check again tomorrow to make sure
I only use woodmizer 7 degree turbo blades. I have tried others , but nothing beats them so far
@@LarrySbrusch Thank you.
Very good men. I like this video because I want to build my homemade sawmill, my question is, if you can help me in the process. Thanks in advance.
My English it’s not very well, say Celia cruz in New York., but I’m trying.
Francisco from Santa Cruz Bolívia.
Take a look at my other videos. Some of them mention dimensions
@@LarrySbrusch thank so much amigo.
A cuántas r p m debe de girar está maquina muchas gracias
I think your asking if they are free..these machines are far from free..correct me if I'm wrong
Can you put the measurements in writing please. I’m going to order your parts on your website. That is the perfect size mill I need. Thanks
I won't be able to post them here online, but if you order some parts, let me know and I will include the basic measurements from my mill
Ok I ask for them when I order
@@bubbagofigure9371 No problem...I will get you all the details
@Steady Trolling hp makes a difference, but I would start with wheels that are at least 18-3/4" and a pulling wheel from 10-11-3/4"..txdashcovers.com under industrial section to see them
I want to build one do you have like a parts kit that you can sell
I have some of the stuff you will need at txdashcovers.com under industrial section
So when are we going to see it in action
We have been using it for two or more years. Check out my other video's
Just wondering if you build these and sell them, if so where are you located.
I have built a few but with my age and price of steel and other items have slowed down a lot
@@LarrySbrusch I guess that is a not hen, and if not, how much would a unit like this cost to have built by you, and again I guess it all depends on your location as well. Thanks
Complete head with engine would of cost $3500 about a year ago
what size square tubing did you ues
I used 2" on the main post and the next size up to slide over it..
thanks going to try to build one going to use a trailer frame for the frame with 2" angle for the runners would that be ok
you should be OK with 2" angle
Thanks, just looked a lot of video didn't see anyone say what size would be the best
most people that have bigger mills are running 2"-2-1/4" from what I have seen
what is the blade speed?
I'm really not sure..I do not have any way to check it..but with a 429 cc engine.i run 3/4 throttle when I,m cutting..hope this helps
I sorry i got confuse Larry.AL
What s the zise bandsaw weels the shaf
18-3/4" wheels from TXDashcovers.com in the industrial section
The shaft is 1". But if I build another one that big. I will use 1-1/4" shaft
Where to buy them
TXDashcovers.com
Just wondering, is there a particular reason why you didn't, put your uprights/ legs of the main body, in the middle of the rolling caster floor/ base legs , i would think it might be top heavy, & topple over towards the log your cutting, i mean i don't know, that's why I'm asking, i need to know what are your thoughts on this, is there no reason for concern of that, never the less, like I've said before, this is bad to the bone, i truly love love love your build, i really hope i haven't offended you with any of my comments, i truly meant no disrespect, believe me your the teacher & i need you to teach me all the in's & outs, because this is going to be my build soon & i really need to know everything there is to know to have a perfect operational mill, & i feel you are the 1 to teach perfection, again, thank you so much
It is fine like it is..I wouldn't change anything else
@@LarrySbrusch awesome thank you
Please send me a pic:or send measurement of your build's like i want build one like.AL
Check out my other sawmill builds. One of them shows me giving all the measurements of this sawmill in details
I have an idea for a superior all around use bandsaw mill. It is like an alaskan mill but is all electric. The two hubs are ebike hub motors, about 12 inch diameter or so, and the supporting frame is lightweight, as hub motors are lightweight for what they are too. The motors are driven in paralell, and the driver is high current, not cheapo chinese shit electronics.
The power is connected with either a battery or a high current dc supply. Solar or extension cord or whatever makes most sense.
The main advantage is no noise, dust, smoke, vibrations,
ANd the logs can be milled in place, as this is a much easier thing to handle, the logs dont need moving. The waste is just shavings and offcuts and that will be fine if left on location or whatever.
2 hub motors instead of one power wheel and one follower means you get twice as much avaliable torque, Less likelyhood to break a blade, and better tracking. The tensioner can be aired up tires, and alignment can be done with shims.
This has all of the advantages and very little disavantages. If it works on 120v that would be prefered, if not, then i think 48vdc is the only other sensible operation voltage, like the motors accept stock.
They deliver alot of power and torque, I think 3kw per motor is easily attainable. That means 6kw of low loss power transfer. Low vibrational loss, and smooth laser like cutting. I would make one that can do 10 inch depth 42 inch width.
The starter board straight edge method works great. and its very easy after that first cut, which is also easy. Then the slabs can be put on sawhorses and cut diemsionally with a circular saw.
It makes most sense to leeave them as slabs, stacked dried and somewhat cured, in sun with black tarp.
Overall, I think it would beat all other sawmills.
Have a nice aluminum frame, light, anodized, with a throttle handle and a big flat platton.
The tool would be useful and durable and easy to repair. The wheels are very sturdy though, and the motors too, because bikes take lots of differnt loading.
What do you think?? Yours is good concept, but is not as streamline as it may seem. I think it needs to be lightweight, so no moving logs, just fork the stack when its cured in place.
sounds pretty interesting
Please send me a pic:or send measurement of your build.I like i want build one like.AL
Check out my other video's , I have one with dimensions. Thank You
