- In this video Greg mills cedar logs that we will use for our barndominium. The first log is so unique, that he decided to use those boards inside the house, maybe in a closet or a hallway- the rest of the cedar boards will be used as treated girts on the bottom of the structure. Hard to cover up beautiful wood like this, but it is the best wood to use for these bottom girts.
Hope you enjoy this video, especially the "live" milling.
We are building our barndominium - barn house out of wood that we are milling on our own sawmill. If you haven't followed along with our BARN Build, (which is now our barn house build) make sure to check out that series in our playlists. We finished the first slab last summer, we milled most of the timbers needed over this past winter/spring, added plumbing, put in a second slab for our garage and now we have started building our barndominium - barnhouse - lodge - our home, with 8 bents going up being the latest excitement! Now, we are working on securing the bents and adding to the structure.
Here's the video where all 8 bents are put up in one day- it was pretty amazing:
• It's FINALLY Time To B...
Here's the video where we share our change in plans and decide to turn our barn into our home:
• EVERYTHING Had To CHAN...
Here is the video where we share our barn plans. Our plans are from @BarnGeek . We are excited to build one of his beautiful barns and turn it into our home:
• Why Do We Think WE CAN...
***We are also so excited to have completed our sawmill cover enclosure (sawmill shed). Definitely check out our Sawmill Playlist to watch it all happen. We have shared the process of building our sawmill cover from the very beginning. We have a Woodland Mills HM130 Max sawmill and we live in North Idaho. The sawmill cover / sawmill shed is vital to continue milling for our barn build in the winter months, but it will also be a great way to keep out of the sun during the summer months, and of course all of the rain, in between!
Here is a link to the video that shares the sawmill cover / sawmill shed build from start to finish:
• Sawmill Cover Build - ...
Here are the specs on the sawmill cover / sawmill shed we built:
3 posts in the front
4 posts in the back
Overall dimensions are 15 feet wide by 36 feet long
Longest beam is 28 feet
Front part of the lean to roof is 11'9" and back is 8'
It will have a 3 :12 pitch
Posts and beams are going to be 7 1/2" x 7 1/2"
We have shared the entire build!

Milling Our Own Lumber For Our Barndominium Build - Cedar On The Sawmill
September 2024
Appreciate your tenacity.
Mixture of sawing and building is the way to go
another good video. Looking forward to more building. Your new home looks awesome!
I like them both, keep them coming.
Awesome- will do. 😁
Looking traffic! ❤❤❤❤
Thank you, Deborah! 😊
Times like this I wish we could smell the wood being sawn :) Instead I'll just have to imagine how nice it was.
Wouldn’t that be great?! It smells so good! 😊
That cedar sure is pretty wood. Great work.
Thank you- it sure is pretty! 😊
Another great video!👍🏻
Thank you! 😊
Such a cool history with that log!
Very cool! 😊
Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much for watching! 😊
I love seeing the whole process, but if I had to choose, I’d say the build. It’s exciting to see the lumber become functional and turn into your dream! 🌲
Love this! I agree. 😊
New subscriber.
Sure is wonderful to see how methodical you work, highly skilled, pre-planning, set up is spot on.
I enjoyed your video. Thanks.
Satisfying sawdust scrape😂 I can imagine how amazing it smells!
Next time you visit, you’ll have to do this! 😁
@@ourdreaminthewoods would love to! 🌲
I like both. I like to watch the building, but I also like the milling.
Alot of beautiful wood!
Surprising an eighty year old cedar log produces that great cedar smell when it is cut. Look forward to watching you install it our your timber frame home. As for my preference, right now I like your construction videos but was pleased to have a break with you sawing some logs.
Milling our own lumber
Hi, Terry- Fun to think about the history of that old cedar log - pretty special. 😊
Well, it took me 8 days to binge watch all of your videos from your first one. I follow Martin Johnson Off Grid and caught you when he had you mill the hemlock for his mantel. 🤗
Wow- that’s impressive! Thank you! 😊
I could watch these milling videos all day long
That’s awesome- thank you! 😊
Sure is nice knowing that when I need some pieces for the barndominium, I can just make it on the sawmill! It's even cooler when the log has some history like this first log. Hope you enjoy this video. What do you like better - watching sawmill videos or building videos? Let us know in the comments! 😁
🇳🇴👍👍
Thank you! 😊
Hello ODW. Thanks for the new video. Very impressive and inspiring too.. GBU.
Thank you! 😊
Like it when people work with their hands and build things. I grew up in the 50s and 60s and my father was a home builder. He never knew what a nail gun was and had wristsd of steel.
Hi, Terry- I bet your dad had hands of steel.
I hammer for an hour and my tennis elbow starts bothering me. Still satisfying to build something out of real old fashioned timber and boards. It almost feels wrong putting the sheathing on with all that glue and protective coating.
Special stuff there sir. Definitely reserve those for Interior work. Perhaps some beautiful window sills and aprons and trim out the large picture window and your grand entrance to the pioneering homestead that is " OUR DREAM IN THE WOODS " DID those piles come from the Naval Base???
Thank you, Todd! I’m going to have to pick through them - lots of good stuff but some of them are split.
They came out of our lake. There is a spot that traps drift wood and debris where the Clark Fork river enters Lake Pend Oreille. We do have a secret navel submarine testing base on the lake- testing deep water stuff (so they say). 😁
So how do like the faster lift on the sawmill now. I finally bit the bullet today and bought a new electric start motor to convert my mill over so that I can buy a lift like yours and a monitor also. Good new video. Thanks.
Thank you, Tom- I really like the new lift and faster speed. Just feels dialed in compared to a year ago. Of course I’ve been milling some quality logs - that always helps! 😁
More milling less awful music,I m interested in the wood not the noise
Thank you for your thoughts. We do have a video that has just milling and the sound of the sawmill- no explaining- Milling in Real Time- It’s lonnngg and may explain why we use Timelapse with music. 😁
