Sean, Kevin could use some of those leaves for his goats. You might want to call him to come and get some. Unfortunately there is going to be a shortage on a lot of stuff and major hike prices. I have looked at that little chain saw but have those gone up in price. Love that saw mill. Enjoyed and thanks. Love y'all
Exactly what I came to say! It would be great forage for his goats and help him out with feed, and help you out with getting those branches out of your way.
Dutch, I would take down the damaged trees around the well house or any that could cause damage if another storm passes by. (You can always plant new healthy shrubs or trees to replace lost ones)
Nk, I am wondering about the message under both your and my comments ? How are you supposed to know if it’s really from Dutch or it’s a Hacker ? Nora🥀 I love their videos. 🎚
My ex husband worked for a tree trimming company for 16 years. They were contracted through our electric company. There was always boom trucks and chippers parked around our house somewhere. He'd bring them home to change the blades and stuff. You definitely need a chipper with all the clean up you have to do. Be safe Dutch!
You definitely did a good job with the tree by the well house 👍🏻! I And you milled some really nice looking boards out of the log😊. Awesome! I’d say it was worthwhile😁! Thank you for sharing, take care out there, God Bless🤗💕!
Use the holes to hold turquious stones/chips in resin for a table top. You can cut one side smooth and leave the other side live edged, and mount the two strait sides together to get your width. Makes a very unique top. You will need to keep it pressed flat as it dries. Hickory is so beautiful when finished that way. Can't wait to see what you end up making.
That's some good looking wood. Can't wait to see what you make out of it. Already watch HHF. Love watching both of Y'all. Two great families. Take care and stay safe out there. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.
Dutch , I just wanted to let you know that I have added Hidden Heights Farm to my viewing list and I really like it thanks for the heads up suggestion . I appreciate it thanks , I hope and pray that you will get the damage and down trees cleaned up !...!...!
Love watching you working on the saw mill its so interesting seeing the inside of some of the trees you mill...also love watching the clean up vids but love wen ur working on the hse best of all...
I love Hickory. It’s such a beautiful wood. We took out our original dark wood cabinets out of our kitchen and put in Hickory ones in a natural finish, kind of what Kevin and Rachel have. It really brightened up the room. There are so many different wood patterns you get from Hickory. I still think you should make a bench with some of that Hickory, even if you only use it for the seat part.
I enjoyed everything and I really appreciate the sawmill the wood is very beautiful looking 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 thank you for sharing have a wonderful evening 😊
Your progressing well still watching from the land down under. Glad the storm u had wasn't too bad for ur place. And how are those 2 beautiful German Shepherd's going? I still have mine.
That little chainsaw cleaned that tree up in no time. It was good to see some rain in your area. I know Kevin and all the other farmers really needed it. I hope it helped the ground.
That mill work is awesome! Hickory wood is great for flooring, cabinetry, and furniture, as well as tool handles for hammers, axes, etc. And is also great for smoking meats... it has tons of great uses. 😊
When you saw the downed tree, you immediately thought of milling boards (great idea!), firewood and chipping the little stuff. My first thought was HUGELKULTUR base. I’ve seen so many videos lately where limbs from downed trees are lined up on the ground in long rows, smaller branches/leaves intertwined and all matter of organic material piled onto them and then they get topped with soil. No need for the tubs you’ve been using although the tubs guarantee a certain height. Funny how two people see the same thing and come up with totally different uses.
You are so resourceful, cutting up that tree and using the saw mill to make some good size boards. I hope that there isn't to much damage on your trail's. Stay well and safe. 😍
Your Title broke my heart ❤️🩹 because you love what you’re doing for your Family. And you’re darn good at it. I can only imagine how much hard work it is but It’s One Day at a Time Sweet Jesus. 🎚 Love your videos. Many Blessings to y’all from Ohio 🥵 Nora🥀 I just hope the Trails aren’t too terrible.
Dutch,I find you milling those trees very interesting. I love any kind of power tools. I got my love of tools from my Dad. I watching anything you work with,you always make it interesting. I miss Brandi and the girls. I wish you a great day,God Bless you always
hidden heights farm, is practically family. he looks like your brother too, i am a subscriber for quite a while and the birds in that old building had me spooked too. 👈👦👧👀👀👀👀
Hidden Heights is great, been subscribed for a while! My dad has been wanting a sawmill forever, I really think we should go in halves with him, we would like to get a chipper for bedding, mulch, and compost. I definitely agree with you on the smokehouse, we've been talking about that for a while too, everything takes time and money, but as long as you never quit, it will all come together. Great video!
I'm sure Hidden Heights Farm could use your tree limbs for their goats, what a treat that would be...LOL...enjoy watching y'all and thanks for sharing...love hugs happiness and prayers...💗😇🙏🏻
I thought you tarped your milled wood. Did you not ever or just stop? I know you'll be really happy when you get the building up over the saw mill and wood. So many things to do you don't have any choice but to prioritize. Good on you for keeping those things in the forefront of your mind. Hi to Brandi and the kiddo! Hope y'all are well.
When you get wood with interior d as mage, you should clean up as much as possible and apply epoxy to it for cutting board. The epoxy with fill in the damaged areas, and look really cool. I've made a four of odd shaped cutting/charcuterie boards and covered with epoxy for beautiful, unusual accessories for my table. Great gifts too!!
Hi Dutch and family. I was wondering if you have read the book Shepherd of The Hills. If not, please do. Old Matt and his son Young Matt ran the sawmill in their area of the Ozarks. This story made the Branson/Lake Taneycomo area popular before Tablerock and Silver Dollar City were built.
Greetings. Love the channel. Been following prior to the move to Oklahoma. Amazing progress on the house. Close call with the pump house. Martin Johnson mentioned that you and your family inspired him so we are sending you guys some love from San Diego. Semper Fi from an old retired Marine. Stay strong Leatherneck!
Glad you guys got rain and have the equipment and ability to clean up around your place. Thank you for sharing everything and teaching us by showing us. Action is always better. God bless you & yours!!! ❤️🙏🇺🇸
Sean before you cut the limbs, Kevin could use them to feed the goats some healthy green. That would make some really unusual and tough shelves in the pantry or by the fireplace 🤷 Glad the rain came your way. God bless all.
I have only seen one other person with the sawmill like you have and his channel is called Stony Ridge Farmer here in North Carolina. He has a cattle farm. It’s awesome to watch how he feeds his cows and he does a little bit of everything like y’all do. The log looks awesome, can’t wait to see what you use it for.
What part of Oklahoma I've purchased property in reed's springs missouri so many nice trees around, I'm in the process of looking for 20 acres I've found some just full of trees
We're already subscribed, and just adore your beautiful family! However Martin Johnson and family requested that we send you guys a little bit of extra love and encouragement, so I wanted to make sure we did!! ❤ You guys are so amazing, don't stop going! You've got fans for life here in Kansas City MO!❤
I have a Stihl gas chain saw, but I have the Milwaukee M18 chainsaw. I was looking for a smaller saw and the local lumber yard had a sale. Having other M18 tools it allows me to use it for extended periods because of the other batteries. Dewalt and other brands have battery chainsaws, so depending on your brand of battery-operated tools your viewers should look into them as an alternative.
Hey Dutch, you could make some trivet out of your scraps. They set hot pans on it. Cut different strips and glue them together, kind of like a butcher block top. You could sell them. You could check out making lazy Susans.. just suggestions. Love your channels
Consider using some of those off-cuts from the saw mill to sheath temporary structures like your main chicken yard. Drill holes and hang them with bailing wire, or new school zip ties. Keep the plastic tarps underneath the sheathing for better wind, rain, and snow protection; use the sheathing for its R value and aesthetics.
That chipper that Kevin has is a beast! Did not know you were a part owner! That is great! You can get a lot of chips from all your brush around the property. Great for landscaping around the house! All the leaves would be a treat for Kevin's goats! God Bless!
Hi Dutch, Martin Johnson sent me over to say hi and keep it up. I love using my Norwood sawmill, very therapeutic and a good workout. Keep up the good work.
I would connect with Kevin at Hidden Heights Farm and have him come get the branches with all those leaves for his goats. That way the goats will be fed and after the branches can be used for firewood.
Hello From the South (So. FL.) !! Martin Johnson Off Grid Living Sends Y'all Hugs!! Heard about you from them! Hope y'all weathered the storm! Stay safe and positive!! God Bless!!
That one piece of hickory you cut toward the end of this video would sure make a pretty rustic bench to put on your porch. I love homemade stuff like that
You talked about a cutting board, but wouldn't it be cool to make a thick butchers block table for the new kitchen? So many things you can do. Stay safe out there.
Martin Johnson and the folks at Off Grid Living send you hugs. Sorry for all the storm damage. 😢🤗
Sean, Kevin could use some of those leaves for his goats. You might want to call him to come and get some. Unfortunately there is going to be a shortage on a lot of stuff and major hike prices.

I was thinking of the same thing!
Exactly what I came to say! It would be great forage for his goats and help him out with feed, and help you out with getting those branches out of your way.
ABSOFREAKINLUTELY!!!
I ditto this exactly what my mind was thinking!
Hey I want to get a pellet maker and turn leaves into pellet for my goats.
Thanks for the shout-out bud. That wood chipper needs to be used for sure. Can't wait to see what you use all this wood for.
Dutch, I would take down the damaged trees around the well house or any that could cause damage if another storm passes by. (You can always plant new healthy shrubs or trees to replace lost ones)
Nk, I am wondering about the message under both your and my comments ? How are you supposed to know if it’s really from Dutch or it’s a Hacker ?
Nora🥀
I love their videos. 🎚
Keep on working on the clean up of the storm, That is something that will be a never ending process in the woods!
I think Kevin and his family are awesome people they are honest people just like you and your family are May God Bless each and everyone of you.
Kevin is the one who sent me to your channel. You’re both great. Much love, prayers and blessings.🙏❤️

It's amazing how far the property has come and pretty cool to hear your ideas for the future. Love you guys!
Hugs from the Martin's in Idaho. They wanted you to know that they care about you and the storm damage that occurred at your place.

When we remodeled our kitchen we had Amish cabinets built out of hickory. They are absolutely gorgeous!
Thanks for sharing. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Your progressing well still watching from the land down under. Glad the storm u had wasn't too bad for ur place. And how are those 2 beautiful German Shepherd's going? I still have mine.
Already subscribed to Hidden Heights, Dutch! It makes sense that you and he are buds, seems like you have lots in common. ☺️
Your milling products are each unique. Such pretty lumber. Glad you can do it yourself. 😊💜
I came from them to you and I really enjoy your channel and your family
There’s always something ❤️ I love watching your milling!!
Love your videos and enjoy watching them every time they come on. May the Lord bless you and your family and the animals and homestead
That little chainsaw cleaned that tree up in no time. It was good to see some rain in your area. I know Kevin and all the other farmers really needed it. I hope it helped the ground.
Hey Dutch maybe you could cut it into 1" pieces and make a laminated cutting board so it has more stability when you use it as a cutting board.
Hey Dutch are you going to put some of the leafy branches in the pig pen? They love to eat vine and tree leaves. It could save you on pig food.🧡🧡🧡🧡
That mill work is awesome! Hickory wood is great for flooring, cabinetry, and furniture, as well as tool handles for hammers, axes, etc. And is also great for smoking meats... it has tons of great uses. 😊
Dutch I will feel so much better if you get the two porces upright supports completed, a strong wind will cause you problems
Martin and family sends their Love and so do we
Make a picnic table . Love the stuff you can make with your own trees .
Fun on the mill.. getting ready to get mine up and going to start milling the barn kit
Shelves, book shelves for girls rooms, cutting board for kitchen, many craft projects. Lots of ideas for creative things. Lovely wood.
Another great video thanks. Thanks. Chris from England.
When you saw the downed tree, you immediately thought of milling boards (great idea!), firewood and chipping the little stuff. My first thought was HUGELKULTUR base. I’ve seen so many videos lately where limbs from downed trees are lined up on the ground in long rows, smaller branches/leaves intertwined and all matter of organic material piled onto them and then they get topped with soil. No need for the tubs you’ve been using although the tubs guarantee a certain height. Funny how two people see the same thing and come up with totally different uses.
I'm not sure the phyres would work where there is a lot of rain coming down with force.
While a good use for a downed tree it is hickory so would make some awesome smoked food. lol. Save the crap trees for hugelkultur. lol
You are so resourceful, cutting up that tree and using the saw mill to make some good size boards. I hope that there isn't to much damage on your trail's. Stay well and safe. 😍
Give the leaves to your goats!
You're becoming a pro on the sawmill 👊💪 Thanks so much for the shout out!!!!! Much appreciated.
Your Title broke my heart ❤️🩹 because you love what you’re doing for your Family. And you’re darn good at it. I can only imagine how much hard work it is but It’s One Day at a Time Sweet Jesus. 🎚 Love your videos.

Hi from Syracuse NY everyone thank you for sharing your adventures and your farm
Love Hidden HeIghts! Thanks for the info about the little Stihl saw!
I'm sure Hidden Heights Farm could use your tree limbs for their goats, what a treat that would be...LOL...enjoy watching y'all and thanks for sharing...love hugs happiness and prayers...💗😇🙏🏻
Enjoyed your video and learned a lot. Thanks 😊
I thought you tarped your milled wood. Did you not ever or just stop? I know you'll be really happy when you get the building up over the saw mill and wood. So many things to do you don't have any choice but to prioritize. Good on you for keeping those things in the forefront of your mind.
Hi to Brandi and the kiddo! Hope y'all are well.
You are very creative, and I always look forward to your video's. Hope all is well with you and your family and all of your animals

I've made a four of odd shaped cutting/charcuterie boards and covered with epoxy for beautiful, unusual accessories for my table. Great gifts too!!
Special cutting boards, maybe with your logo burned in might make saleable merchandise.
It's fun to see what's inside🐦.
Thanks for taking us along 😊.
JO JO IN VT 😆💕
Hi Dutch and family. I was wondering if you have read the book Shepherd of The Hills. If not, please do. Old Matt and his son Young Matt ran the sawmill in their area of the Ozarks. This story made the Branson/Lake Taneycomo area popular before Tablerock and Silver Dollar City were built.
There is an old movie with John Wayne too !

Martin Johnson mentioned that you and your family inspired him so we are sending you guys some love from San Diego. Semper Fi from an old retired Marine. Stay strong Leatherneck!
Very nice slabs. I would clear tress away, around the pump house, just incase. 👍🙏🇨🇦😊
Glad you guys got rain and have the equipment and ability to clean up around your place. Thank you for sharing everything and teaching us by showing us. Action is always better. God bless you & yours!!! ❤️🙏🇺🇸
Sean before you cut the limbs, Kevin could use them to feed the goats some healthy green. That would make some really unusual and tough shelves in the pantry or by the fireplace 🤷 Glad the rain came your way. God bless all.
I would use those wood pieces for open shelves in the kitchen. Beautiful 😍
When a tree is down that is when the work begins and it is always more than you think 👍👍
Marty sent us over to see your build... Looks great!!
I have only seen one other person with the sawmill like you have and his channel is called Stony Ridge Farmer here in North Carolina. He has a cattle farm. It’s awesome to watch how he feeds his cows and he does a little bit of everything like y’all do. The log looks awesome, can’t wait to see what you use it for.

Thinking of you and your family and keeping you in our prayers lots of hugs🙏
Martin Johnson sent me over here to tell you hope your doing good due to the storms that you recently had come through your homestead,
How long before you put the wooden uprights under the porches? The tension I feel seeing the porches just barely held up is palatable to my sense’s.
Hey you can save those wood chips and compost them and use em around your gardening.
We're already subscribed, and just adore your beautiful family! However Martin Johnson and family requested that we send you guys a little bit of extra love and encouragement, so I wanted to make sure we did!! ❤
You guys are so amazing, don't stop going!
You've got fans for life here in Kansas City MO!❤
You have so many projects started. It's going to be fabulous when some get wrapped up. I'd be panicking winter is coming. You all seem so calm.
Keep the faith your doing an amazing job God bless

Dewalt and other brands have battery chainsaws, so depending on your brand of battery-operated tools your viewers should look into them as an alternative.
Dutch, you should give the branches with the leaf on it to your buddy Kevin of Hidden Heights. He can give the leafs (food) to the goats!
Awesome video Dutch. God bless. Love ❤ you all
Hey Dutch, you could make some trivet out of your scraps. They set hot pans on it. Cut different strips and glue them together, kind of like a butcher block top. You could sell them. You could check out making lazy Susans.. just suggestions. Love your channels
Have to say that wood you cut us absolutely beautiful. Appreciate the share.
Nice little saw.
The milled wood is beautiful.
I know nothing about this, but is it possible to run a magnet on the wood before cutting? Would it help find nails, etc.?
A cheap metal detector would work wonders.
The Martin family sent us to encourage and everyone is sending hugs keep the faith
Martin Johnson sends big hugs, we love you all too cleanup is a chore but fun too as it looks great when it’s all done
Glad you guys are ok, praying for all of Oklahoma!
Marty Johnson sent me. Pray you are well and safe from the storms.
Consider using some of those off-cuts from the saw mill to sheath temporary structures like your main chicken yard. Drill holes and hang them with bailing wire, or new school zip ties. Keep the plastic tarps underneath the sheathing for better wind, rain, and snow protection; use the sheathing for its R value and aesthetics.
I would use the chipper and a tarp and chip the smaller branches for a small smoker.
Awesome Dutch.
That chipper that Kevin has is a beast! Did not know you were a part owner! That is great! You can get a lot of chips from all your brush around the property. Great for landscaping around the house! All the leaves would be a treat for Kevin's goats! God Bless!
That lumber is going to look great, I love when ya'll mill up logs from hickory or oak and hang it on the wall. Love ya'll ❤️
That saw would (wood) be amazing to have! So many things you can make! Thanks for sharing!
Just a thought but I think the screeching sound and the little dark horizontal streaks on the wood indicate your blade is dull.
Sean,
Praying for you guys... keep the faith brother!!!
Hi Dutch, Martin Johnson sent me over to say hi and keep it up. I love using my Norwood sawmill, very therapeutic and a good workout. Keep up the good work.
The hickory looks awesome!
The holes in your boards might be from bores too.great videos
Martin Johnson sent me to give you support and prayers like you do for everyone else. 💞
I would connect with Kevin at Hidden Heights Farm and have him come get the branches with all those leaves for his goats. That way the goats will be fed and after the branches can be used for firewood.
Hello From the South (So. FL.) !! Martin Johnson Off Grid Living Sends Y'all Hugs!! Heard about you from them! Hope y'all weathered the storm! Stay safe and positive!! God Bless!!
Hi Guys, Martin Johnson sent us, we will be going back over all your videos to catch up, everything is looking good
That one piece of hickory you cut toward the end of this video would sure make a pretty rustic bench to put on your porch. I love homemade stuff like that
Thx Dutch always like watching all of your videos
Have a blessed week
You talked about a cutting board, but wouldn't it be cool to make a thick butchers block table for the new kitchen? So many things you can do. Stay safe out there.
Would be good to use your scrap hickory for your smoke house once you get it built.
Martin Johnson sent me ! Just want to encourage you guys after the storm.
love your little chair saw,love the video , any news on your missing peacock?? . Keep the video's coming.♥♥♥
