- Geometry may not have been interesting in high school, but it applies to things in our lives every day, especially for those who use tools. Or own sawmills.

Learned something new from your video today, can’t tell you how many times my log would get hung up on the log stop while turning it over. Just a simple fix of putting pvc pipe over it solves the problem.👍👍
When I first saw someone doing that, I was amazed I hadn't thought of it.
From a fellow Oregonian, you're doing great and fine example of the Oregon pioneer spirit.
Thank you, Anton.
@OregonOldTimer no, thank you for carrying on the spirit that built this land. I try and hope to continue doing the same. You, sir, are a national treasure.
I always thought that a smidgen was a small pigeon. Guess I was misinformed.
Good video.
Or a wigeon's sister.
I got a 122 and have cut about 3k bd feet with so far. I did find a great solution for the 2x4 cants wanting to flop over. I installed a bungee cord
around the screw clamp and
tightened it below. No more floppy
cants. I like to start with the uprights all the way down, probably so I don't forget them up.
I don't worry about forgetting to lower stops because I ALWAYS keep the blade guard installed and adjusted. If I have to move it to get past a gnarly spot, I put it back immediately.
I like your clamp assist.
Woodland Mills and Frontier back stops are INCREDIBLY poorly designed. I can't believe that they haven't changed them. Your idea about using plastic pipe corrects their bad design for just a few cents.
Good job.
Poorly designed but cheap. Some sawyers weld on bearings or skateboard wheels. I, being lazy, am happy with plastic pipes.
@@OregonOldTimer Your cheap-and-dirty works better than anything I've seen so far.
You got a new subscriber here Old Timer. I live in Oregon as well. Looking at mills. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for subscribing. I'll be getting back to the sawmill soon.
With the blade tension being on the low end of the specs. I'm surprised the cant shifting didn't put a kink in your blade. If you don't mind me asking, why the wooden bunk?
I think if blade tension had been tighter, it probably would have snapped.
I like to have both ends of the log supported. Made the wooden bunk that I can put wherever I need it.
Another amazing video Sir. Hope you and yours had a blessed Christmas Day. Until next time, keep up the good work.
Thanks, you too, Therold.
Why dont I see any wedges to keep the top board from adding friction to the cut or blades? Maybe Im crazy or water cooling the blades?
The kerf is much wider than the blade and the wood behind the blade can't pinch it. The only parts of the blade that touch the wood are the tips of the teeth, unless the log or cant shifts as this one did.

Thank you, Sue.
Hello I'm Donnie and was wondering what size mill are you running and do you like it .I'm planning on buying a mill and was just wondering what you think. Thanks for the video. 👍👍
HM 122, the smallest Woodland Mills makes. Great hobby mill or low-production mill. If I were young and going into sawmilling as a business, I'd spend more and get a Wood-Mizer.
@@OregonOldTimer Thanks for the advice 🙏 I like your video's
Except work.
Enjoy your videos a lot. I notice you have the log clamp angled away from the log. WM says angle it towards the log. Comment? Thanks.
I don't understand your question, Luke. I just watched the video again to see if I could figure out what you're referring to. Can you give me the time to which your question refers?
The log clamp has two main pieces. A bracket with a rectangular hole slides along a rod that attaches to the track. There is a long metal bar that fits into the hole in the bracket. This hole is offset so the long piece can tilt either toward the log or away. It appears you have the bar tilted away, as do other youtubers. WM recommends having the bar tilted towards the log.Clear as mud>? Is this something you experimented with? Thanks!
@@OregonOldTimer
@@lukefisher7618 The log clamp is installed correctly. In use, with all clearances in the assembly taken up by pressure against the log, the clamp does tilt past vertical and away from the log a few degrees. If the bracket is installed backward, the tilt away from the log would be extreme.
The pipes are a brilliant tip! Love your videos. Been following for over a year. Your videos convinced me it was safe to purchase this sawmill. Merry Christmas from Canyonville OR.
I can't claim credit for the idea of putting plastic pipes on the log stops, Max, but I'm happy to spread it around. Did you buy a Woodland Mills?
Why did you level the pith and then split it?
I try to cut parallel to it and box it into a post, but sometimes I don't pay attention to it. I know I should, though.
Another great video bro. I hope to be learning new mistakes and be as healthy and active as you are when I’m an old timer!
My uncle and family moved from Cal. To Madras OR. this summer. Is that anywhere close to you?
Madras is 200 road miles ESE of me on the other side of the Cascade Mountains. Big improvement over CA, I'm guessing.
Thx for sharing
Thanks for watching, John.
Thx for sharing
My pleasure.
Have you tried 4K video. I just started to video and edit in 4K. I think that you have a GoPro Hero 9? That is what i am using for the 4K. I thought that it would put extra strain on my editing and uploads, but I haven't noticed a big difference. One nice thing is that when you zoom in in your editor the resolution still looks good, unlike 1080P where the zoom in starts to look fuzzy. Let's see some video of how you survived the storm!
I use a Hero 3 and an 8. I don't even know what 4K is, but maybe I should find out.
Storm videos coming up soon. One on cutting down the trees overhanging the driveway that shed branches in every storm and this time dropped an entire top half of the tree just missing our car. And another one on fine tuning my makeshift basement sump pump so it will actually work.
@@OregonOldTimer i think that the 8 has 4K. Essentially it is double the resolution compared to 1080. 3840x2160 vs 1920x1080. Works well on my Hero 9. Sounds like you have plenty on your plate already, but look into it when you have time.
I see they have dropped the prices on the mills a few Hundred $. That helps! And another great sawing video from Oregon. :D Western IL says Howdy! ;)
US dollar is strong, I think. That would account for lower US prices. Check to see if Canadian prices have changed.
definitely, like, hello from Russia, dude, thank you for the video. happy man merry christmas to you
Same to you, Dmitry.
Eric;
A router bit will take that fuzz off the edges of your lumber. Works for me!
I'm sure it will, but, to me, it's not worth the trouble. Yet.
What is the corresponding blade elevation change for each hole on the hand crank? On mine one half turn seems to cut about a 7/8 board.
On my sawmill, the HM 122, each hole equals 1/16 inch. Kerf is maybe a smidgen under 1/8. Call it 1/8-inch to keep it simple. If I go down one full turn every cut, boards are 1.5 inches. For 3/4-inch boards, it's half a turn plus one more hole.
Affix three vertical dowels to the wooden floor of the sawmill shelter in a convenient location to store your plastic pipe when you have finished turning the log. It will make them easy to reach when you need them, keep them off the floor and minimize the need to bend over to pick them up.
Excellent idea, Art. Thank you.
I always enjoy your videos brother. Keep them coming
Likewise, Mark.
Enjoyable video Sir. It was good to learn that a smidgen is equal to a hair in my speak. 😀 Hope you have a Happy New Year, Paul.
Happy to expand your vocabulary by a hair, Paul. I don't know the origin of smidgen. Hair is self-explanatory...You got my curiosity up, so I Googled it . Probably an English variation of the Scot word 'smitch' which means the same thing. So now we've both learned something.
@@OregonOldTimer Your origin of smidgen sounds plausible! I re-watched your video...I think 1 smidgen is actually 2 hairs...who needs the metric system. 😁
Looks like you got pretty good yield out of that log. Hope your holiday was a good one, with Santa erring on the generous side!
@@valeriehenschel1590 Didn't go anywhere except out to dinner Sturday, and nobody came here. Perfect!
Merry Christmas Eric enjoyed your video.
Same to you, and thank you.
Enjoyed the video as usual.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Merry Christmas!!🎄🎁
It was. I hope yours was, too, Dave.
