Why did you go from a gas powered mill to a diesel powered one?
@@bryonwilcox4408 Nathan's previous sawmill was also diesel.
I don't think I will ever tire of watching Cedar get cut, it is a beautiful timber & these boards are beautiful. Thanks for sharing Nathan, Don from South Aust.
Remarkable! I was amazed by the detailed process shown here. The way you handle those massive logs is impressive. The video quality is top-notch. Looking forward to your next upload. Continue sharing these fantastic videos!
Beautiful cedar boards. Thanks to all our Veterans who served. Semper Fi.
Please stop thanking veterans on Memorial Day. Memorial Day is a day of reflection to honor and remember individuals who paid the ultimate sacrifice. Veterans Day is when you honor and thank those that served in the military. Thank you.
What a way of life. Congratulations on what you have accomplished! I love your channel. Thanks again for sharing your time and way of life! KANSAS
Beautiful cedar boards. Much richer colour than our coastal red cedar. Wish I had some.
I enjoyed this video! Thank you for sharing!
mowing is like maintaing roads , painting bridges and buildings as by the time is fished start again at the beginning, want rain then grass grows lol but that is food for stock and bedding coming your way
You might enjoy this with a cup of coffee. a competitor for Mr KAto 🙂
Mighty beautiful cedar you got there.
VOTE Folks I say Yes to Nathan’s first published basic guide to the introduction of sawmill ownership & operations for getting going in your own how to guide. Sign me up for an autographed copy volume #1 🤠🇺🇸
You would think that Woodmiser would put some cash behind that idea just for the placement.
A book on sawmilling from you and a bunch of other contributors would be incredible
That might happen we will see
I will buy a copy the week it becomes available.

Nice looking wood friend! 👍👍🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🤘🏻🤘🏻
Mother Nature is beautiful.
Good channel is engelscoachshop a true wheelwright. Death valley wagons was my start.
I watch him a lot
My great Uncle Charlie made his living, most of his life as a Wheel Wright. Went the era of the wooden wheel came to an end, he went to making furniture. His specialty was spinning wheels. I have a set of the plans he worked from. Unfortunately I was too young to be in line for any of the specialty tools of his trade.😊
dude...I bet that t25 is a beast of a grass slinger!
👍
Beautiful wood. 😊
Some beautiful lumber!
Beautiful wood Nathan!! Stay safe!!
Here in North Carolina we call that cedar as well. Juniper is a short bushy evergreen, not a tree.
Its cedar! juniper is a planet. 😂
lol
Nathan, those red cedar boards were so nice I could almost smell the wood all the way down in Alabama! I always liked cedar even as a young boy & now at 76. I really enjoy your videos. It's right out in the back yard. All you need is good weather & good logs. Thanks!
That cl35 looks like a perfect machine for you. All the best.
Nathan my great grandfather built his house on his farm in northern New South Wales and his son's pit sawed all the timber in the house
hello nathan its is randy and i like yours video is cool thanks friends randy
We call it cedar in East Texas, never heard it called anything else until you mentioned it.
Holy moly those boards towards the end of the video are BEAUTIFUL!
Absolutely love cedar, beautiful timber. Thanks for the video friend 👍🇦🇺
Gum wood was used for wheel hubs and had to be cut in November in order to last 50 years. This my mentor told me of a local wheelwright. My mentor was born in 1889 and died 1981. And great music by the way! DaveyJO And some very pretty cedar boards!
Love the guitar playing at the end of this video. Very relaxing and also very beautiful. I also love watching you saw "red cedar". The wood is so pretty . Your videos make this 76 year old woman very happy. I love watching you work around your place also. Thank you for sharing with all of us.
That sounds like a great idea , with all of free time you really should write a book on sawmilling . I'm serious on the book .
I wish I could be there to smell that!
Juniper is a tree that grows in the south swamps that is in the Cyprus family it's a every green where Cyprus loose it's needles juniper stay green but you can find them in the same swamps juniper as sweet order that you can remember if you ever smell it and it is a real clear wood that is good for making boat's I helped my uncle bluild and few win I was younger he had a frik sawmill and I would go with him to the swamp and find one that was just right for what he wants and we cut it down and floated it back to the mill in the river.i have a few of them here on the farm ithe swamp .I would love to have the old mill he had but it has been gone for a lot of years God bless yall keep making the videos you are one of the few that I can understand what you are saying on utube
Thank you for the live feed last night and though I had nothing to say I still enjoyed it. Also with you showing a bit more about what you do around the ranch is nice. A lot of videos other put out you only see them at work in 1 specific place and with yours they show you as any hard working man would be. Thanks again
Just 1 more note : I have to go with you on the red cedar where I came from as a child on the west coast we called a tall cone shaped bush a Juniper they grew pretty tall and people hated them because when they were small folks would plant them by the side of the house and they would grow up under the eves and just be a plain mess over time since they are an evergreen and shed all the time. But you know some people you just can't teach even with a big hammer and duct tape
👍👍
Nathan you're exactly right. As a guitar player for the last 26 years, I have never seen a top wood referred to as juniper. I have seen hundreds of guitars built with Western Red Cedar tops and that is not an east coast/west coast argument. They use the same terminology in CA as they do NC.
That is red cedar, Juniper grows more like a bush around Northern Arizona. I haven't noticed them in other places and only know how they grow here. Juniper trees can have a large base but their branches grow in a twisted mess.
I live on the Navajo Reservation and we have a choice of burning Ponderosa Pine or Juniper. Juniper burns the best, the coals last long enough it is easier to keep a fire burning. Our pine trees aren't as sappy as the pines I grew up around in the North West panhandle of Florida.
Nathan, if you are ever concerned, about your camera being stable, in the wind,
hang a several pound weight, from the leg spreader. Hang it long, near the ground.
That should keep it very stable and, possibly, keep the camera from jiggling, too. 😁✌🖖
Great video Nathan, I think your book would do very well, take care
Thanks Bruce
Stay safe.
Thanks for sharing with us Nathan, the mowing is easier with the front and rear attachments off. Rides pretty decent too. Milling the cedar sure turns out some beautiful lumber that can be used in many ways. Stay safe and keep up the great work. Fred
Beautiful Cedar (Juniper). Seriously when I was in college (Industrial Arts Woods major) the "old time" professor called it "Eastern Aromatic Red Cedar" to differentiate it from "White Cedar (somewhat popular here in New Jersey: Though Eastern Aromatic Cedar is here in abundance also!!) and Western Red Cedar. The "White Cedar" at one time was actively "mined" from the Jersey Pinelands bogs as the sunken logs produced amazing rot/weather resistant house siding.
Built numerous cedar chests in my shop class in HS. Also built a few gun cabinets there. I'm very thankful my great uncle John who had a sawmill and he also grew tobbaco and a large garden so he made $ selling vegtables. He paid me well and glad I gained that knowledge.
OU love the KATO!
That is a gnarly looking log! But I do like the alternating red/white pattern of the wood. The grain pattern on the second log is spectacular! Thanks for posting.
Eastern Red cedar is technically Juniporus virginiana. So, call it what you want. It's still gorgeous stuff.
I can only wish I could smell the beautiful cedar!
I envy you working with that cedar. Not only is it beautiful, but I can practically smell it via the video… I love that aroma!
I have some very distinct memories of using a Crescent Nail Puller in the past, it’s a great tool and I wish I could remember more about where/when I used it. It might have been one of my father’s tools, which means that (since I don’t have it) my brother-in-law may have it squirreled away somewhere. He’s an aircraft mechanic, so it would not be a heavy-use item for him; but, I’m always tinkering with wood and would love to have it. Gotta remember to ask him about it!
We've always called it cedar in Indiana. Juniper is usually an ornamental shrub here.
That's some killer cedar! And I can only imagine how good it smelled!
Yes red ceader 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Go ahead, call it Cedar, that’s what we call it in Arkansas. Sounds good to me.
Fun fact about the "Pit Saws" you mentioned ... she came to the idea of a Circular Blade by watching her husband and friends, noting that the Pit Saw blades could cut more if the blades weren't "straight":
"Did Tabitha Babbitt invent the circular saw?
A member of the Harvard Shakers in Harvard, Massachusetts, Sarah “Tabitha” Babbitt (1779-1853) was a tool-maker and inventor. She is credited with inventing the first circular saw for use in a saw mill, the spinning wheel head, and false teeth."
Those boards at the end are truly epic and need to be part of some cedar chests the way I see it. It is very rare to see such wide boards in that "aromatic red cedar" from Tennessee which is the name I learned. Not so important since we do not wear wool as much as the old days but that is definite good moth control stuff there and wool is making a bit of a come back these days for clothing.
Clothes hanging in a cedar lined closet smell so good!
gorgeous wood!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent as always!!! Thank you, sir!!! I appreciate you spending your time to deliver such excellent content!!

I know knots aren't good for building for strength . But makes the best looking boards.
Love your videos. I always use a metal detector when I cut cedar. Many times my cedar comes out of fence rows with nails and fence staples or I discard the bottom 4 feet of the tree.
Would enjoy a "short" on the loader removal procedure. Great stuff as always!
It is Eastern Red Cedar.
Well produced - great content!
That book sounds fascinating. I'm sure you would do a book good service. You already tell good stories. I appreciate your sharing.
Now THAT'S a mower. Would be perfect for my boy's 9 acres. :)
When you mentioned the naming thing it reminded me. I'm an amateur wildlife photographer (extremely amateur LOL) and I grew up with the common names of species as were and still are local to my region. Now when I go bush with other members of Birds SA (South Australia) I get told off for using the bird names I grew up with. LOL. Some are so deadly serious about naming they are actually cranky when I do. So being the type who likes to pull elitists down a peg. LOL. I just continue on calling Sparrows, Spogs and Rosellas, Goppers etc. So every time you say "Juniper" in this vid, I've told my (feeble) brain to hear "Red Cedar". LOL.
You need to put a sign on the wall behind you at the saw mill that tells everyone you are using "Joe Maine Silver Turbo Tip 7 Blades" . Never mind ,people will still ask
It may be Juniperus virginiana to the scientific crowd, but regular people have been calling it red cedar for about 400 years now.
Thanks again Sir.
Out west we have alligator juniper which is classified as a "medium tree" at 20-40 ft tall and upto 7ft in diameter
We call it red cedar here in SE Pa. too Nathan. A few call it juniper but red cedar is my vote. Kind Thanks and Many Blessings! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
Just thinking and started wondering I think I herd you say one time that you were a police officer befor you started this just wondering and if so thank you for your service
That’s was pretty red cedar, here in Texas that’s what we call it too. Someone asks for a Juniper bench or table and they’d be told it’s not available. And you’re right, you say Juniper and you think about a plant you buy at a nursery.
Definitely turned out nice brother👍🇺🇸
Beautiful stuff Nathan
How did you ever get by without that KATO? Great piece of equipment, but all your equipment is nice!
Great video, thanks for sharing
👍👍
So beautiful
You should plant some trees on all that property!
Good idea
#outofthewoods N8 if you knew the weekends spent with my dad watching the woodwright shop. And thinking about that I remember episode of Little House on the Prairie where they duplicated and ran a pit saw team. And the faster you went the better you were paid
I live in Chapel Hill NC and I am familiar with the man you are talking about. His show comes on UNC tv and he is enjoyable to watch but he sure likes doing things the hard way.
Juniper berries are used in gin 😊
Red cedar is not juniper. Juniper is what we New Englanders call White cedar. Anyhooo, that's some nice looking planks.
Those solid cedars milled into lap siding would make the inside of the timber frame smell awfully good.
Hey, Nathan. I have a sixteen year old daughter. I told her boyfriend that he had to subscribe to your channel in order to date my daughter. As a seventeen year old that has a farmer for a grandmother (his primary caretaker,) he already has a great work ethic. But, he can still learn a lot from your channel. We will discuss your newest postings as a way to produce a method of “male bonding.” I love woodworking. I only wish that you were closer to me (I live in Ringgold, GA) so that I could buy my lumber from you!
Bet that smells nice when you saw it!
Great recommendation on the book Nathan. I will also recommend 2 books that I have enjoyed since I first read them in the 70's. Reverence for Wood and Museum of Early American Tools. Both written by Eric Sloane.
I agree when someone says juniper I think of the evergreen that only get 6 inches high that's and is used as ground cover because it spreads out as it grows kind of like an ivy. People plant it on hill sides too steep to mow. There's another decorative plant I think about too that looks almost exactly like red cedar that grows like a bush but only gets 2 or 3 feet tall. I just can't call a red cedar tree juniper.
Good stuff
Hey there firewood man
Beautiful looking timber that Red Cedar is. Can the colour of it be maintained when using it as siding for a building? I’m not sure how but if it could be then it would be magnificent.
I like the control better without the bucket and all that stuff out front it drives better they are just easier to steer on ours I used to tell my Papa that I felt like a bobblehead every time I hit the breaks it nose dived and just shook your head around
Is the red cedar you are sawing the same as aromatic cedar used to line cedar chests and closets around here.
Honestly never understood the need for the t25 to have a bucket on it, when you have other options, but at least it is easy and quick to take off for mowing.
The proper name in the USA is Eastern Red Cedar, or as most farmers call it in Oklahoma and Texas parasite Cedar!
The 8 "arms" with the white paint that bring up the rear,,what are they far,,,,I see the ones on the other end pushing the cut piece back to you but I just can't figure out what the ones on your end do
ever thought of doing bookmatched stuff for making guitars etc?

It sounds like you should be keeping track of all the sawmilling literature, all your own knowledge, and then compile it all in one book. Doesn't have to be done tomorrow but you might want to start putting ideas down on the computer a little at a time. In a few years you might be the one who writes the comprehensive book on saw milling! Passive income. By the way, I love your taste in music. Thank you.
Is red wood used for anything but paneling or furniture?
Grapefruit
First, let me compliment you on your sawmill and farm equipment. They are always clean and well maintained, never "rode hard and put away wet!" My question is about your mill, there are 8 jointed fingers hanging down on the operator's end of the mill, "what are they for?"
As a welder / CAD (Computer-Aided-Design) Designer/ Metal / Steel Fabricator, person who doesn't play with dead tree carcasses, I would venture to say they are supposed to protect the operator in the event of a broken blade (or part of a blade) being thrown back at the operator. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
Big shout Out to the men & women & their families for their service for this country. May God Bless you one, and all. Remember, FREEDOM isn't Free.
When the lumber is dragged back they ensure that it comes back straight & doesn't move to left or right.
I like how the T25, with those big things sticking up off the back, makes it look like a big push lawnmower. I can just imagine a 15 foot Nathan pushing it around, with the little Nathan riding it!
Wow
