- Today we are going to be picking up our new sawmill from Timberking! They walk us through the machine giving us operation and maintenance tips. Before we go we get to run the mill through its first log, giving the machine along with us a test run. Thank you to the Timberking staff for all the help.

Are going to be doing that as a side business? That looks to be a top of the line product.
For $90k they better be good at service and adding in wear items.
Years ago, I delivered a Jonserred chain saw mill in the middle of a guys property. First thing he did was mill locust posts for a shed to cover his mill and then he proceeded to mill the wood to build his house.
At 19 years old my grandfather bought a sawmill kit in 1949, it was a belt driven system with a stationary circular saw that has a large carriage that runs the logs through the saw. and to this day we still run that old mill, we sawed a bunch of hemlock lumber that we used both for my barn and will be using on a new shed, very cool old tech. the mill you guys got will be amazing!
That's quite a nice unit you got there George. Congrats, looking forward to see it in action
Awesome machine !!! Now when you need lumber around the farm you have a saw that will produce>>>>>>>>congrats !!!!
If you haven’t watched his TH-cam channel is
TC Sawmills. He’s based out of norther Wisconsin. He’s an expert on the Timberking Sawmills.
So happy for you guys. Your Dad is “wired” for one of these saw mills. Surprised he’s waited this long! Enjoy
Welcome home. i miss you. Your brother did a good job milking the cows 🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄
First order of business. Saw lumber to build a sawmill shed. 😂
This is the video you burn to a DVD and keep on the shelf with all of the other shop manuals! Lots to remember and I know I always forget some detail "what did that guy say again?" Look forward to the lumber videos!
❤😊COOL 😎 YOUR BROTHERS AND THE GIRLFRIEND DID A GOOD JOB 👌👍 !! LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING THE SAWMILL WORK !!! WE HAVE A BIG SAWMILL AT THE LE SUEUR COUNTY PIONEER POWER SHOWGROUNDS ❤😊 FOR YOU GUY'S CAN COME AND SEE IT IN ACTION IN AUGUST !!! AND YOU CAN COME AND SEE MY 4 BOTTOM ROLLOVER PLOW 😊😊❤❤
We had a Frick sawmill. Had to set foot posts and rails. Took awhile but she was quite level. Had a Chevy motor that drove the belt.
Timber King has a long history. They started over a hundred years ago as Belsaw.
I worked for a farmer in Indiana who also (unfortunately for me), had his own timer mill which he used for cutting railroad ties. It was old and archaic. I hated that thing. If he had a mill like yours, I might even have enjoyed cutting the odd railroad tie.
Almost all of Jonas S's sons have cut logs for me in the past ten years. I was telling Sam the other day that you guys were getting a new mill and he was wondering what kind I guess now I know what to tell him LOL
I bought a sawmill to save money on lumber no matter what it cost 😂
I think you’re all really going to enjoy it 👍
Are you doing custom work with the mill?
I have a Woodmizer sawmill and I like to use a small paint brush and ATF to oil the chains. Less mess and the ATF only goes where you want it.
We've had a 1600 since we bought it back in the 90s. Ours maxes out at 17'
Wow! It is the sawmill you have been talking about! What a road trip!
That is a heavy duty looking mill .there will be great video,s with it in use
Welcome to KS. Couple hours south of KC.
Wow! Gierok lumber company coming soon.
Your farm was in good hands !
Nice new toy! You're going to give the Amish a run for their money!
I started with a Norwood sawmill and upgraded to a Woodmizer. The Timberking is a great mill too. I have a friend that has one. They are lots of fun.
thank you
My neighbor has a woodmiser. He gives me all his saw dust for bedding lol
That is one sweet sawmill!! Very heavy duty. Will last a very long time. Thanks 😅.
very VERY heavy duty. Or as we say, Built Like a Tank.
For the money ya paid it it's well worth it cuz I do see it as a great side business especially cuz I bet alot of people would love to have some of there wood cut on site instead of going to building supply store
Check out a square to round plastic pipe adapter. To get sawdust closer to the ground . Thanks
I do not know anything about sawmills, but I know to come to your farm if I need help 😂😂😂😂😂😂Great Video Aaron and George.
CONGRATULATIONS MR GEORGE !! Can’t wait to see using the mill at home. Thanks guys!!!
That is one nice portable saw. Friend has a very old portable saw but it is all manual, always have to do all the calculations manually, no computer control on it.
Looking forward to sawmill videos
Nice Christmas present. You got it home just in time. There's lots of snow now as of this morning.
With all the firewood you cut and the real nice stands of trees you have it only makes sense to have a portable mill. When needing hardwood lumber for your barns and other projects, that machine is easily worth the investment.
As far as I'm concerned you got the best. If I were to get one it would be a timber King. I think I would get a debarker on it. Thanks for the videos.
Yeah that was a very impressive walk thru and serious unit. I’m in love.
You folks should have plenty of raw material with the wooded areas around the farm. The representative gave an impressive hands-on tutorial for operation of the mill. It will be a learning curve getting used to all the features, etc. The band type blade is sure different than the circular blades on local Amish sawmills in our area.
Nice purchase, It looks like a good unit.
I can already see that that saw mill will be a very useful tool on the farm.
Lumber, woodworking, land management, income generation - no way to run out of uses for a TimberKing on a farm!
That is a big mill. I guess you guys are going into the timber business. Always good to have a side hustle.
My best advice for you would be to join the Forestry Forum. There you can get true and honest advice and real world experiences about sawing the right way and help in any situation you might find yourselves in. I personally bought a Cook's AC36, but TK was my second choice. I'm located only 3.5 hours from Cook's. Be careful and keep safety your first priority. Good luck!! Sawdust is adictive!
Great purchase. You use the sawdust for calf bedding. Can not wait to see it in use
7:55
Really enjoyed watching this. Something I have never seen up close. You will enjoy using that.
Good vid. I enjoyed the trip for your new piece of equipment
Liked the video, a lot of valuable instruction. Look forward to your videos using the sawmill.
Wow alot to learn Its great to have the video to fall back too
I have a timber king 1600 good and reliable. I like the auto log turner on your new toy.
I think this will be a great addition for your Farm!! You guys are so mechanically inclined, and obviously have plenty of trees available to mill!! Very best of luck on your new venture, as it appears to be very well designed, and constructed!! Thanks again, Vic!!
I'm a regular viewer and I'd like to welcome you to the sawmill family the timber king looks like a pretty good mill I myself own a wood-mizer mill I've built many buildings on my small farm and saved thousands of dollars milling my own lumber
So Congratulations!!
2 farm boy in a big c>ty always a good time lol
Nice !! waiting for videos on this.
That’s a good investment for your farm you have plenty of trees that you cut when you are cleaning up the woods and fence lines. You can always use the lumber on the farm. Great video god bless
We have the new York style tiestalls . We took the water out of the neck rail and ran all new pex in the ceiling directly to new farmer boy ag drinker cups .
What all do you plan on doing with your own saw? Mill your own? Custom work have projects to do in the near future? Looks like a good unit
I’d say you purchased a beast , it should serve you well. Congrats George
That’s an awesome mill!!!! We bought a Timber King 2000 about ten years ago. We made the same trip you guys did. They are a great company. No issues with our mill except the usual wear parts.congrats!!!!!
I had a Cooks MP32 back in the day when i was still farming. I lived about 1 1/2 Hrs. away from Cooks so it was a logical choice for me. I loved sawing but I also had 4 chicken houses, about 70 beef cows and row cropped cotton so after letting it sit for about a year while busy with the money makers I sold it. Sometimes i wish i had sold everything but the cows and saw. Enjoy watching the videos. Look forward to the sawmill videos now. A lot different from South Alabama. lol
Good video and job really nice mill nice they showed you everything. I have a woodland Mills 130 max there was know way I could buy a mill like that. I hope Dad gets a lot of enjoyment out of it. Aron you and your brothers may have to milk the cows for a while first 3 months I sawed every day I could. All of you take care be safe and well. Mom may want to run it to.
This is the exact machine that I would like to get. The staff at Timber King/Woodmaster are the best. Even to us tire kickers... Great video, congrats on getting a great machine
This is a 100k machine minimum. The farm is evolving. Acquiring the tools that they believe are needed to grow the business. Huge outlay not being purchased to cut up a few logs. Should be interesting.
Utube money
No way! That’s awesome! I have a 1220 Timberking that I have used for about 10 years. Works great but everything is manual.
How good is your new mill fantastic I worked in our timber mill in the south East of South Australia when I was young thourly enjoyed it I can't wait to see what you mill great video cheer 😊😊
That is the nicest sawmill I have ever seen for residential customers.
This is one of the nicest compliments we've seen in TH-cam comments sections.
Wow!! Milk prices must be good! That’s quite the investment
Milk prices are not that good, they have very nice machinery for a small dairy operation. Two skid steers, two very nice JD tractors, just got a new baler, there has to be another income stream, now a 100k for a mill. Great operation very thrifty, they take very good care of their equipment. Enjoy watching this channel, along with One Lonely Farmer.
friend has a timber king its the base model cut a lot of wood nice unit
Hope you had a good trip. Looks a very interesting set up. All the best 🇬🇧.
Nice machine congratulations on getting one I hope everything works out well for you have a good day stay safe stay healthy stay happy And we'll catch you on another one
Wow. I hope you took notes.
I ENJOYED WATCHING THE VIDEO GUY'S 😊
Congratulations on the 2520. I have had a 1620 Timberking for a few years now and the additional features would be awesome, I just couldn't afford them at the time. I like the TimberKing sawmill and their service is second to none. I had to call for a replacement drive belt and they replaced under warranty which I did not expect. When you call, you are talking to the experts and not a call center somewhere creating a call ticket and you have to wait a few days for an answer. I have called them sitting on the sawmill in the field and had the answer without missing a beat on the job i was doing. Everyone I have talked to is very knowledgeable. They even helped me on how to saw extremely small log like a telephone pole. The really small stuff is harder for me to deal with on the sawmill than the big stuff. Enjoy!
Very nice sawmill 👍🏾 congrats on your purchase!
Hello awesome machine. We have alot to saw up here. I hope to get something going someday also. Enjoyed your video have a great day.
Another side benefit for the farm sawdust makes decent bedding to supplement y’all corn fodder
Good luck with the new mill. I look forward to the videos. Looks like a formidable piece of equipment that can benefit your families.
good for you guys cant wait to see in action at the farm cheers
You guys are good people I hope your new machine works out well for you deserve it
it is beautiful. I wish it serves you well.
Nice looking unit. Will be waiting to see you guys using it. Congrats on your new purchase.
Super excited for this new addition to your farm! Can’t wait to see all the adventures you’ll have with it.
Looking forward to the videos😊
We've got a Norwood but I can see some things I like about your system and a couple of things that concerned me based on years of using. I think you'll really like it. Good service is a key!
Just noticed, that poor guy lost part of his finger on his right hand. It's all dangerous work, we all know that. every injury happens so fast, we never knew it till it happened.
Nice addition to the farm it will come in handy when you you need framing lumber and sheathing boards, square fence post etc, nice useful purchase guys good luck with it George.
Very good mills
Always thought my own mill would be nice, but I always work alone at my place, and have gotten to the point it's lost appeal. Looks like a great unit, that Kubota engine is a long way from steam powered mills! 😂 Great video, Timber King should pay y'all for using this for advertising!
Curious if the saw mill is bucket list item your finally could pencil out financially and available time or if you are buying it to prep for a large building project or new business adventure into larger scale furniture building? I was also wondering if the motor controller has option for inputs which could be programed for an idle/max power switch to idle down without having to repeated tap the up and down the engine speed. Thinking the repeated taps to a button that is exposed to the weather. Just a suggestion to you and Timberking.
You guys were only about 45 minutes from where I live . I don't own a mill but looked at the TimberKings when I was thinking about getting one. They're in an industrial park off of Hwy435 and Front Street. That looks like a really nice mill, and I'm sure it will serve you all well for many years.
Congratulations on the new mill. My dad and I have a woodmizer lt35 hydraulic. Timberkings are good mills also.
double up on these set screws so the set screw in contact with the shaft remains tight and then the second set screw acts as a locking device. There are special set screws which are approx. 1/4-inch in length which are hollow through the center for this purpose. The length varies with the thread size, whether NC or Metric
Wow, very nice machine! As a smaller Woodmizer owner I'll give you my 2 cents. Take your time with the learning curve, it will make the future more enjoyable. Always be aware of the blade path. It's very easy to forget to lower the log stops, I know. Don't try and get more out of a blade than it's willing to give. Change it when needed. it will keep the frustration level down.
Great awesome video. Should put a link to timberking . I like it . Our if they have a TH-cam channel
Wow ! what an amazing bit of kit, cant wait to see you using it. I love the mill,I woud just have to have a fully mechanical system, I could never cope with the computer part ! Thanks for sharing yout trip.
I would bet George is going to do exactly what I build first, a shed to cover his investment!
Congratulations on the new mill. Looking forward to seeing some great video of this beast in action. Are you going to build a permanent location for it or leave it mobile? Guess we will find out soon enough. Congrats again.
Well that was very educational to see and very informative. Thanks for letting us see a small demonstration and I can’t wait to see it more on the farm. God bless
Congratulations on your TimberKing 2520 mill. This is the Cadillac of all mills. My farm is just 30 min north of TimberKing in KC, and I’ve just recently added the TK2220 sawmill to my farm.
I deliver these mills all over the country for TK, set up and teach ppl how to run them. The 2520 is one of my favorites to operate.
Looking forward to seeing videos of you all sawing on your farm.
