    Beautiful! I’m amazed at how fast that saw goes. I had two huge eastern white pines and some smaller hemlock cut at my land in Nova Scotia three years ago and hired one of my neighbours to come out with a Woodmiser to mill it. The wood is so useful and beautiful and is basically money in the bank! Thanks for sharing this informative trip along the milling process.

    Rather lengthy video, but I found it so intriguing that I found myself mesmerized and ended up watching the entire piece. I have several comments:
    1) So *that's* where lumber comes from … before your video, I thought lumber came from the lumber yard (LOL!!!!)
    2) Very informative:
    a) I didn't realize trees had "tension" … after you mentioned it, makes lots of sense
    b) Drought weakens trees ("unable to defend itself"). Again, makes tons of sense, but only after you said it
    c) You may have thought you were wasting time showing changing the band saw blades, but this is the first time I've seen it done.
    d) Duh … of course you have to square up the round tree.
    3) Clearly you've done this millions of times. You weren't rushed and your movement was very practiced and efficient
    4) Even *you* weren't sure about the full beauty of the wood until you put some water on it (wow, what a difference)
    Thanks to you, I appreciate lumber craftsmen (folks who love what they do) plying their trade.

    I had a dead white pine in the yard about 18 years ago. I took it to my dad's mill and had it cut. I wish I had more of it. It made some real nice trim around the doorway to my daughter's room. Too bad he gave up on the mill. Since I have been building instruments, he has been bringing over some nice logs, saved from the firewood pile.

    It gives you a glimpse of how things were done by the earlier generations.
    Now it is done on a huge scale.
    Being from a farm and growing up with no indoor plumbing,running water, gas heating and a house that had 2 rooms for 6 kids and 2 adults.
    I appreciate the efforts of those that came before me. The effort and time it took to make the lumber needed to build a house was a huge effort.
    Now you just go to HDepot and buy a 2x4.
    I love watching these types of videos.
    Well done and nice music too.

I appreciate the fact you suggested you are learning how to do things instead of pretending to already know everything about your processes.

      Shai Kharkongor I always loved the smell of pine also. That is until April 27th 2011. That was the day of the biggest tornado outbreak ever recorded.
      I witnessed the horror of so many people injured and/or dead, and so many people who became homeless.
      Right after the EF5 Tornado hit, all I could smell was the fresh Pine. The tornado had broken and splintered so many pines that the tornado actually had a STRONG Pine smell to it. 🌲 🌲
      Now when I smell pine it immediately reminds me of that horrific and sad day.

    I swear to god I could smell that saw going through the wood. In the neighborhood I grew up in Michigan we were the sixth house built and there’s at least 200 homes in the the neighborhood I grew up in. so the smell of saws going through lumber brings up memories of my childhood. Building tree forts and under ground forts with the leftover lumber from the houses being built.

They're designed to be used by just one or two people.

      TheBostonstapler I've used both for years. The Milwaukee stuff seems to have more power but terrible battery life, weight, ergonomics, and durability. I like the 20V (and 60V) Dewalt stuff more than any cordless tools I've ever used, and we're VERY hard on them and they keep on trucking forever. I'll trade a little power for all that, if you need more than the 20V can give, you can use the 60V or an AC tool.

      That's simply not a thing.
      Poor battery life is what drove me away from years of Dewalt use permanently.

Do you make good use of those wood chips? Plywood ? Now I have a newborn respect for trees !! I think it's a shame to waste trees on junk mail. What you are doing is a noble service to man who want to build houses and such. Junk mail is for idiots who have no respect for how long it takes a tree to grow just to foolishly waste it on JUNK !! Thank you again. I can tell you enjoy what you are doing. It was a pleasure to watch !!

    Nice lumber from a dead tree this is indeed a perfect example of why someone who has a decent amount of forested land should invest in a little mill. Harvesting dead and dieing trees before they fall to insects and rot brings alot of value from nothing. I really miss doing this kind of work. Yes its hard and labor intensive but yet so satisfying.
