Thank you Simeon for including your dad in your videos. I can see he's a bit uncomfortable being on camera but you can assure him that he is a welcome addition to your homestead story. Your english will improve as you learn new words to describe certain details and actions. You do not need to apologize for being yourself. It is because you are being so real and raw and so open that I am anxiously awaiting each new look at your life that you are so generously sharing with us. Thank you for being so brave to open up your life for the world to see. I hope you get a gazillion views so that all of your family can build and enjoy the homestead you all dream it can be. Best wishes from Canada.
Wow, that went through he machine faster than I expected. Nice to meet your Father. Need to include him in more videos, he is unique with a combination of teacher, homesteader and master wood worker/sawmill operator background that is cool. Simeon, you must have inherited some of your Dad's teaching skills because you can take complex subjects and explain and show us how to do things in clear easy-to-understand short videos. Very nice.
Great videos and information about the Logosol, it shows that you don't need full industrial quality machines to work commercially, very good top range craftsman quality is enough. Too many people promoting/owning the most expensive as the only option but then they never actually use it. What I like about your homesteading channel is that you show the actual reality not just talking about it, it's always easy to say do this or do that, buy this or buy that and this product is better than that product and never really use it. What you show is real life actually doing the tasks with the tools you have or can afford and the problems that can happen. This is truth, Thumbs Up
Love to see father and son together in the shop. My great grandfather was Krone Skogvacter(sp?) at Kolmorden near Norkopping. caring for planting and harvesting Taller and Graner. Our family has be woodworking ever since. Merry Christmas o you and you whole family!
thank you Simeon, it was nice to see your dad, your machine is a good one, it does the whole thing with one pass, it sure could me a money maker if you had the market to make custom flooring. have a great day.
please take this as a compliment. you and your family seem to enjoy a high standard of living. your tool shop is fabulous with many wonderful, and im sure, expensive machines. you seem to enjoy many of the latest gimmicks technologically, the children seem to wear new clothing. your vehicles are modern and well kept. you enjoy your life and you work very hard. it is comforting to see a man and his family enjoy the fruits of his labor. I compare your standard of living to farmers here in America and I cannot believe our farmers would be able to maintain your lifestyle here with the operation you run there. was your family wealthy before your involvement in that farm ? does your lifestyle depend only on the fruits of the operation we see in the videos you post ? I wish you only the best and continued success and prosperity in your endeavors.
I just noticed that someone gave this a thumbs down. Why oh why is the reason? This is my real name and you can find me in Calgary Alberta. I'd like to give you a thumb adjustment.
Great video Simeon, I also work with my Dad in our family joinery so I know the pleasures and pressures of working with your family. I aspire to one day be able to run my own homestead even though the rules and laws are a lot different here in the UK which make it hard to do so. Keep up the great videos. I hope you all have a nice Christmas :)
damn, thats a machine, ive been envolved in machine making and around machines my entire life, and that is highquality as f, the finish surprised me, i was expecting 4 plane side (which by itself was incredible) but you put in pallet wood and end up with art.
That was an interesting slow motion clip of cutter in action. That type of machine will quickly pay for itself with just a few flooring jobs. It is also a good compliment to a saw mill. Not every customer wants rough lumber. Many prefer planed lumber on all surfaces. or (dressed 4 sides as it is said in North America).
Yes. There is a bunch to think about but according to my dad it goes in 20-30min to completely set up the machine. He says that other machines take much longer.
fine job nice Machine hears one for your dad few years ago was looking at cabins they were just like the boards he was making with 2x6 frames nice cabins all in a kit for twenty grand nice shop
Look how fast that thing is! So neat and precise. I guessed right, no less than 10. I wasn't going to ask. :D Scandinavians and Germans/Swiss are great tool makers. First thing i look for when buying tools. I'm getting pretty tired of the chinese stuff. I just bought an old German scythe with it's own peening hammer last week. Needs a fair bit of restoration. It looks very well used and loved. Sign of good quality.
We have a Wienig moulder where I work. We take old barn wood and make it into flooring. It's gives the wood a new lease on life. The Germans build the best machines. Take care.
Would love to have one of these, have a sawmill already but am unable to produce my own paneling or wood floors. Excellent video, you are very good at showing the entire process. Keep it up
Love it. I buy rough pine in South Africa. The rough pine is not always very straight. I buy it in 38mm and deepcut it into two pieces then plain it down to 11mm thick boards. Will this machine work for not very straight boards?
Would that I could speak Swedish as well as you do English. I learned Spanish because......I had no choice but I'm glad I mastered it now. I'm really enjoying your videos.
We just got this machine. When you’re tongue and grooving. Do you recommend S4S before tongue and groove? What’s the best method. Thank you for your videos!
Cool machine, awesome results. A money-maker for sure! The last video I remember seeing a concave blade on the wall. Amazing what you could do with that. Could it do crown molding, or a railing and such? Seems like you probably could with that power. :)
Can you explain more about what the three grooves on the bottom are supposed to do? You touched on it in the first video, but can you explain a bit more in depth?
Wood is a living material and it often has some tension in it which will make it twisted or bent. The wider the board is the more the more the wood will work and twist. By putting the grooves in the bottom you reduce some of that tension.
what swedish said ... but the main reason is after the board is nailed down there is less chance of the board cupping from side to side ... it is done on cedar and redwood decking boards here
Hey simeon, can you tell me where your family or your dad are from? i´m from germany and just interested where you are approximately from :) i´m from the north of bavaria, called "unterfranken"
Not sure. But we usually put shorter pieces into our planer / jointer. I would think that 50cm should work but you usually have 5cm at the beginning that are not so nice.
the problem is that it's not easy to get this product in the third world countries like Indonesia due to the restrictions of import of machinery. it coud cost twice from original price. the ridiculous law prevents us, small furniture maker, from purchasing this machine..

Thanks Kevin. I appreciate that.
I appreciate getting to meet your father. I also liked watching the machine setup and operation. Thank You.
Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching.
Your dad looks like a great guy to share a few beers with! Thanks for the video!
Wow, that went through he machine faster than I expected. Nice to meet your Father.

Thanks. Yeah, we try to keep it real.

Wow. That's cool. I have visited that place. Nice. Thanks for sharing.
Give our thanks to your Dad, amazing machine.
love Dad! And great comparison wood in/wood out shots.
Thanks. Glad you liked it.
May God let you prosper and keep your dad in good health.
Thank you. He's had some health issues.
I will pray for him.
Thank you.
So glad I found this channel. The whole idea of homestead and DIY is my ultimate dream. Keep up the good work.
That slow-mo was unexpected - nice thatch to the video)
Glad you liked it. ;)
Hello! Semeon and Dad, thanks , for this video. That machine is awesome!!! some day my floors will looked like that 'beautiful'
thank you Simeon, it was nice to see your dad, your machine is a good one, it does the whole thing with one pass, it sure could me a money maker if you had the market to make custom flooring. have a great day.
Thanks Robert. We have sold a bunch but never enough for a living.
Good job simian, nice workshop and nice to meet the chief too, looking forward to every video.
Thank you. Glad you liked it.
That is a very nice planer/molder. I have heard of this brand but never saw any of their machines in video before. Top shelf equipment for sure.
Very interesting machine, thanks for sharing it with us
Awesome video. That's a great machine to have. God bless you and your family.
thank you nice machine glad to meet your dad

Hahahaha.
your safe people only go to Calgary once a year .

I like your dad. he is very experienced in wood...
Awesome machine does the work of a jointer too.
wow great job to see the machine works thanks for sharing
greeting from the netherland from yvonne
Frohe weinachten, merry christmas every one
Thanks. The same to you.
Excellent video, thank you for sharing that with us !
Great machine - thanks for the demo!
Glad you liked it.
What a fantastic machine!
That was an interesting slow motion clip of cutter in action. That type of machine will quickly pay for itself with just a few flooring jobs. It is also a good compliment to a saw mill. Not every customer wants rough lumber. Many prefer planed lumber on all surfaces. or (dressed 4 sides as it is said in North America).
Yes. That's why dad got the machine. It hasn't taken off as he had hoped but it has paid for itself many times.
Very informative. A lot of steps to set the machine up, but impressive results.
Yes. There is a bunch to think about but according to my dad it goes in 20-30min to completely set up the machine. He says that other machines take much longer.
fine job nice Machine hears one for your dad few years ago was looking at cabins they were just like the boards he was making with 2x6 frames nice cabins all in a kit for twenty grand nice shop

Nice. Hope the restoration will go well for you.
Thanks!
Your DAD's cool...!
Thanks for sharing...
wow very cool machine. love these video
Thanks.
Fascinating! Keep up the great work on filming, music, and commentary. Sometime I would like to see a list of the books you often refer to.
We have a Wienig moulder where I work. We take old barn wood and make it into flooring. It's gives the wood a new lease on life. The Germans build the best machines. Take care.
Sounds like a nice machine...
Excellent! Nice machine
It is a very nice machine.
Would love to have one of these, have a sawmill already but am unable to produce my own paneling or wood floors. Excellent video, you are very good at showing the entire process. Keep it up
Thanks. It is an awesome machine and you can do a LOT for the money. We have built a couple houses with this machine.
Luke Murchie ...enroll in a nights cool class. use highs choose machines and get tax deduction in the process. Works in Wisconsin.
Great video. Blessings!
Thanks.
that machine is awesome.
awesome video great machine I would love to have one
It's nice for sure.
well done !
Tack så mycket!
Love it. I buy rough pine in South Africa. The rough pine is not always very straight. I buy it in 38mm and deepcut it into two pieces then plain it down to 11mm thick boards. Will this machine work for not very straight boards?
Great machine! I want one! 😬
:) It is nice.
Would that I could speak Swedish as well as you do English. I learned Spanish because......I had no choice but I'm glad I mastered it now.
I'm really enjoying your videos.
Nice
Way cool
We just got this machine. When you’re tongue and grooving. Do you recommend S4S before tongue and groove? What’s the best method. Thank you for your videos!
in the long term it can save us a lot of money spent on the cost of production.
This may be a dumb question. Do you put glue on the wood before you stick them together?
Cool machine, awesome results. A money-maker for sure! The last video I remember seeing a concave blade on the wall. Amazing what you could do with that. Could it do crown molding, or a railing and such? Seems like you probably could with that power. :)
Yes. You can do a lot of different mouldings. You will have to go slower though.
Can you please do a video on wall panels and crow moldings? Please show the knives. Thank you
Hello Swedish Homestead, how do you dry your lumber? Cool vids, keep it up!
You guys look like twins :)
Yes, I look a lot like my dad...
I want one that machine would be handier than a pocket on a t-shirt
What dust collection do you use for the Logosol? Thanks!
Can you explain more about what the three grooves on the bottom are supposed to do? You touched on it in the first video, but can you explain a bit more in depth?

what swedish said ... but the main reason is after the board is nailed down there is less chance of the board cupping from side to side ... it is done on cedar and redwood decking boards here
Swedish Homestead Oh cool thanks. That makes a lot of sense.
Are the three grooves in the bottom of the wood for looks or do they serve a function ?
Ron Hart I think it is to relieve the stress that might be in the wood
Hey simeon, can you tell me where your family or your dad are from? i´m from germany and just interested where you are approximately from :)
i´m from the north of bavaria, called "unterfranken"
How short a piece can you feed into this?
Not sure. But we usually put shorter pieces into our planer / jointer. I would think that 50cm should work but you usually have 5cm at the beginning that are not so nice.
Only a German can handle a complicated machine like this as if he is making Tassimo coffee.
Haha.
What brand of pants is your dad wearing in this video?
Not sure. Might be Snickers Workwear or Fristads.
Thank You.
You can tell he is German; you won't find him smiling at the camera. :D
Dust collection. Please tell, thanks.
the problem is that it's not easy to get this product in the third world countries like Indonesia due to the restrictions of import of machinery. it coud cost twice from original price. the ridiculous law prevents us, small furniture maker, from purchasing this machine..
