I like the way you rocked that 2nd log back and forth to get it onto the mill. Ive never seen you do that before. I think you might know what you're doing!
That’s good advice on the belt swap! I’m going to start doing that now. I had been keeping a log and swapping every 50 hours or so; but doing it every blade change makes much more sense. Kind of like flipping the chainsaw bar every time you sharpen the chain. Thanks!!
That land plane sure does a nice job of leveling your driveway and smoothing out the surface. Mike Morgan uses his a lot on his property !! Like you, Nathan, Mike keeps his equipment in fine shape !!
Awwww Nathan , fantastically creative shot when you opened up the belt drive cover to change the blade and Lo and Behold there was a camera in there taking a shot of you opening the cover …inspired my friend 👌 👍🏴
@@OutoftheWoods0623 was looking forward to tonight’s video Nathan and as usual you didnt disappoint . I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for the hard work and the editing behind the scenes that us subscribers never see , it’s very much appreciated my friend , cheers sir 👍🏴
I've seen a couple guys with these type sawmills under or in a building like yours and they have hung a 5 gallon bucket on the chute that discharges the sawdust to catch it so it doesn't make a mess. Have you ever thought about doing that? You could just empty after each log or ever how often the bucket is full into the dump trailer and you wouldn't have the mess to clean up off the floor. Wanted to tell you about this incase you've not thought about it before. 👍
Great video, lots of camera angles and excellent editing-all with super music to bat. Lots of work behind the scenes! Keep up the good work! Blessings.
Evaporust works really good to take rust off. I watch a channel that restores old tools and he's got a plastic 55 gallon drum of the stuff he submerges parts in for a period of time ,12 hours I think or overnight; to clean them when they have sever rust and it will take it off. That's when they are bad, bad rusty but just dunks them for a short period if they are cleaned off like what you did with the anvil and it cleans the rust off good.
Thanks, a video that makes me home-sick, just a little. A nice day to clean (just a little) an Anvil and I appreciate the ball-bearing test. Thank you.
Good Evening Nathan, Nice Cherry boards, and the Anvil looks great. Good cleaning and a Coat of two of paste wax should protect it for a long time. John
School just started here in Jacksonville Florida and Duval school just started here and Duval county have a ninth-grader eighth-grader and a fourth grader
I just started watching your videos not so long ago. You have an easy going, welcoming manner about you. I would note however, I believe most people call the rubber around the band-saw wheels, the tires. It's a minor distinction, but some may get confused. Keep putting out those great videos. You can count Dale from Michigan as a friend.
Nathan, I have to tell you a story of a good friend who was a machinest for 30 years working with on a lathe in a tool and die shop. When turning metal, there is a constant stream of coolant over the high-speed spindle. It's pretty common, right? Well, after 30 years, the doctor told him his lungs were full of liquid. Aka the coolant. Please make sure there's a constant air flow away from you when operating the mill.
You said you’d have liked to have the log further down closer to the saw head. I normally raise both row boards and am able to push the log up or down the length of the mill for those slight adjustments.
Take some old towels soaked with white vinegar and wrap around your anvil then wrap it all tightly with plastic. The vinegar will convert the red rust to black oxide which will be a protective coating from future rust.
Moving right along today Nathan. Got a lot done and more for you to do tomorrow with the anvil which really looks good. It's looking great around there, thanks for sharing with us. Stay safe and keep up the fun around there. Fred.
What a Lovely anvil and a great size as well! I’m looking forward to the results of the clean up. Some nice cherry as well. I never get tired of that sawmill working logs down to beautiful lumber! Kind Thanks, Many Blessings and a Great school year for Bruno! And indeed Nathan, back in April I wanted to start some projects. I have all this warm season, me thought. Haven’t started a few of them as yet. Where did the summer go so fast? DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
I remember you telling us about stressed lumber that pops up when you cut it. Do you have to do anything different with those boards when you stack them?
Who gets to keep the arms and legs after the wood that you saw is sold? I have been to stores where the wood types are sold and they want an arm and a leg for the wood. Are there specials on arms and legs every year? I would like to recover mine.
A track loader, a sawmill and an anvil walk into a bar. The anvil says to the bartender, "Hit me". The saw mill says "I'm short on cash, can you cut me a deal" and the track loader says "I'll take mine to go"....LOL
You had a great day Nathan! It’s also been the wettest summer in a long time here in the Cotswolds, I was mowing and ran over a frog, can I ask what the oddest critter you have mowed? Last point, you are not the only chap who has had an accident on TH-cam this week! Take care
Another great day on the farm. Nathan is it me or is that Cherry lighter in color than the batch you did a few weeks ago? Could be the screen on my computer playing tricks on me. And thanks for the lesson on the ball bearing test for and anvil. I will put a bearing in my pocket and go annoy the guys at a local machine tool shop in my area bouncing that thing! 😅
Out of curiosity - When making the first two top and side cuts, I notice you may or may not raise one end to keep the center level despite any swells on one end. I'd suspect these two cuts would level the log to maximize the output of boards. Is this the case or does it not matter?
Nathan, the mixture you spray on logs with ants. Can it be sprayed on living trees. My daughter and son in law have probably 30 pecan trees in their yard and one blew down yesterday in a storm. On looking at it, there is ants all over it. And looking at other ones there are ants on them as well. Was wondering if you can spray that on standing trees as well as logs. Thank you for running a great channel, keep up the fantastic work.
I'm just curious...you call them belts, but it looks like their primary function is more like a tire. I have zero experience with these machines, so I defer to the experts, but it just seems their function is to provide cushioning so the blade doesn't ride purely on metal,and added friction since rubber is a lot more grippy than metal. So I'm wondering if the manual literally refers to them as belts? And if so, why do you think that is?
He’s not had it very long probably still under 100 hours on the Hobbs meter. I’m curious also to see how it does long term. He’s very gentle on the machine so I seriously doubt he will ever have anything other than routine maintenance requirements.
not telling you what to do, nothing like that ,if you will make your gullet deeper when you sharpen your blades it will make your blades last longer, and also it give your chip more room to exit ive been doing it for years ,when i bought my sawmill i got two boxes of blades and still have some left and never used coolent . ps need to make gullet bout 1/4" to 5/16" deeper have nice dat and roll tide from sweet home al.

Nothing beats a healthy dose of fear. Respect things that can hurt you. Great rule.😊
That’s why I tell new dads enjoy every minute with your kids because one day you turn around and they’re off to college
Exciting to see the iron works coming together. Enjoyed the peaceful music 🎼 with my Gold Handle DUKE coffee this fun Monday morning
Sounds great!
good to hear you'll be back to Paul Bunyan -i'll stop by to chat a minute or so.
LT15wide same wheel with belt design like you said. Reversing them when you change the blade is really a good idea!
I like the way you rocked that 2nd log back and forth to get it onto the mill. Ive never seen you do that before. I think you might know what you're doing!
I’ve had plenty fall off👍👍👍
I agree all about time flying by. My son is a junior already. I vividly remember taking him to Kindergarten.
Very fast summer!
Ive never noticed that little chipper thingy me bob thats infront of the blade chippin the bark away. What a good idea.
That’s good advice on the belt swap! I’m going to start doing that now. I had been keeping a log and swapping every 50 hours or so; but doing it every blade change makes much more sense. Kind of like flipping the chainsaw bar every time you sharpen the chain. Thanks!!
I had one that size I gave to my son. it the same Pattern

Nice cherry. Well now that's one way to cool off in the TN heat - LOL. Stay safe.
Love your choice of music, Nathan !!

You bet!
aka Todd (Rochester, NY); You always come up with some great music to listen to. Be well.
Much appreciated!

I saw that one coming like Christmas. You needed a good cooling off anyway, its pretty hot out here in the south. Nice video Nathan......jj
Hard rain for two days here Nathan,,,,creeks are coming up
Waiting to see you test run of the anvil. Looks like you are going to enjoy it.
That's the plan!

Good looking wood
I love that beautiful grained wood there. That anvil looks like real good one. A lot of bounce from the bearing. Cool video Nathan. 👍❤️
Thanks 👍
Just like rotating your tires! 🗽
Great news about the Paul Bunyan! Hope to see you there!
My LT15 wide has the same v-belt/tire design
Beautiful cherry wood...... Nice work on the metal working stuff too..... Grass looks nice and green, no summer dead spots
Nice video, beautiful scenery. Lotsa run off this year, too.
That was funny!!!!!! Water gottch ya!
Hi Nathan ,if you think this year went fast just you wait until you are over 70 like me ,a year seems like 6 months👍
Nice shuffling 👍
Thanks ✌️
You said you’d have liked to have the log further down closer to the saw head. I normally raise both row boards and am able to push the log up or down the length of the mill for those slight adjustments.
Hey Nathan, there's a really good rust remover called Evaporust. It really works. Great video. God bless ya
I will check it out
The notorious anvil 😊😊😊😊😊😊
All 3 extremely hot pieces of metal in the summertime heat
That’s one way to cool off in that hot Tennessee sun…
I own a LT15 wide and it has the same belt on the wheels

best video in awhile, love the sawmilling.

Thanks
You forgot to sat how much you like the cab of your Track Loader. :)
I saw that spill comin. Reckon I shoulda warned you😅
Good information.
Thanks
Great video. Looking forward to the next one. Be well and stay safe.
Thanks 👍
@@OutoftheWoods0623 You're welcome.
hello nathan it's is randy and i like yours video is cool thanks friends randy

Are those wild cherry trees or from an cultivated cherry orchard ?
Excellent job and video Nathan as always some beautiful boards ❤😊😮
Thank you so much 😃
I remember you telling us about stressed lumber that pops up when you cut it. Do you have to do anything different with those boards when you stack them?
Is the wood miser TL 70 good to Lurn on as Think about buy sawmill when recovered from serious injury
Well, think of the upside on the water and pants. Save the wife from having wash them! Love the anvil, been looking for one for a while now.
Beautiful 👍💛🙏
Thank you! Cheers!

What is the purpose of the small circular saw that runs ahead of the bandsaw blade.
De barker
Good stuff.
Any use for flitches?

Screen color 👍👍
Rustoleum makes a miracle in a spray can called "Rust Reformer." It's black so it won't offend your delicate sensibilities. It works well, too.
Out of curiosity -
When making the first two top and side cuts, I notice you may or may not raise one end to keep the center level despite any swells on one end.
I'd suspect these two cuts would level the log to maximize the output of boards. Is this the case or does it not matter?

All tools?
You've taught the LT70 a few tricks Nathan. Can you teach it to "fetch"?
👍😂
DO YOU HAVE 50MM BLADE ON YOUR SAW MILL
Cheers
It’d be a few degrees cooler if you let the grass grow
Good stuff
Appreciate it
what does that motorized wheel/blade that runs in front of the band blade on the right do?
Takes the bark off
thank you - I really enjoy your videos@@OutoftheWoods0623
are you drinking a cold offey?
👍
Don’t sharpen the horn to much. They blunt the end so that when you bump into them, and you will, it doesn’t puncture your thigh.
I'm just curious...you call them belts, but it looks like their primary function is more like a tire.
I have zero experience with these machines, so I defer to the experts, but it just seems their function is to provide cushioning so the blade doesn't ride purely on metal,and added friction since rubber is a lot more grippy than metal.
So I'm wondering if the manual literally refers to them as belts? And if so, why do you think that is?
That is a really nice track loader you have, have you had any issues with it? I've heard the IHI CL35 is reliable
He’s not had it very long probably still under 100 hours on the Hobbs meter. I’m curious also to see how it does long term. He’s very gentle on the machine so I seriously doubt he will ever have anything other than routine maintenance requirements.
you need a back up camera on that track loader
While pretty much all band saws have "tires", I have never seen any that are lose like that.
Did I miss the Joe Mane statement or did you
Hello everyone❤🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜
👍
Fancy license plate you have there.
If you can I would like to hear about how much you charged the customer and if kiln drying is included.
this was for a friend, we did some bartering, I usually don't saw and dry for hire,
You ever thought about selling your sawdust to horse farmers?
Constantly. All I think about. That and nails
@@OutoftheWoods0623 I was also going to suggest nails
not telling you what to do, nothing like that ,if you will make your gullet deeper when you sharpen your blades it will make your blades last longer, and also it give your chip more room to exit ive been doing it for years ,when i bought my sawmill i got two boxes of blades and still have some left and never used coolent . ps need to make gullet bout 1/4" to 5/16" deeper have nice dat and roll tide from sweet home al.

the older you get the faster they pass.
Love the anvil but you shouldn't sharpen the horn. If you need something pointy to work your metal on get an anvil bick.
