We wanted a new channel to be able to show behind the scenes, as well as talk and explain things more in-depth. In addition, we will be reviewing different items and equipment on this channel.
What I would do? Spokennoise is have a board the same width of each one of your 6 / 6 of your runners. Cover the top of it and then it's all screwed down. If you had to remove it, you could remove it and if it if the legs aint gonna go where the holes are just put you some little blocks, it'll cover the holes and set it. Set a screw them down and then take them off. When you need to to get to the bolts, whatever it'd be easier than by taking a plug and sticking in there and wondering if you can't get the plug out, what are you going to do? Is screw a screw down in there and pull it out. And what if that don't work? You just keep breaking it and it just shatters up, and you mass up your threads on the inside. So just take a block of wood, a little bigger than your hole.Cover your hole after you get your shawl set up and then you're fine
I think that’s a good idea and kind of what I said when cutting a plug to go in so I could pull it out. Can’t put anything else on top because I have already raised the total height 8 inches from normal
I like how you build your framework but it's not perfect in my opinion I have some experience with woodmizer and there's saw frames is not good enough in areas of content they move sometimes. I think you should of get 2 4/6 metal beams remove feet from saw and set directly on beams this way it never moves. Good luck with.
I intend to screw feet to 6x6 that way I can still level without using shims if anything ever settles or fails. But thanks for the comment. I had my last one tied to foundation and no way to level
@@OutpostReview on woodmizer it's constantly battle with leveling at joint " not good design " I would not recommend using those feet just custom bolt to another metal beam
Good afternoon Richard, I think that the holes can be filled with wax from an ordinary candle; the wax will protect the wood and, if necessary, it will be easy to reach the bolts. I do this, it works great
I’ve always heard , Richard , if you don’t have time to do it right the first time , how are you going to have time to do it over a second time ? You have done every job right that I have seen you do , congratulations 👍
You Guys are the Best! Thank you for the Shout Out on your Video I am so glad you saw our video, your comments are priceless! Ironic we both building bunks for our Saws at the same time. You guys take the prize for Most Heavy Duty! Keep it up guys! I’ll be here on your next one!🤠👍
Well, I’m not sure if ours is the most heavy duty, but that was the catchiest title. I could think to send out a video, lol. You guys are doing great down there. Just keep putting 1 foot after the other.
I think you have a winner there Richard. Having access to those nuts could save you if you would have to do any changes to the set up and moving of the sawmill. Stay safe and keep things going your way around there. Fred.
Yeah, I don’t think I would wanna close it up fred without being able to have access back into it just in case. But I’m hoping that I won’t have to mess with it in my lifetime.
Plug the holes with 2" wooden or PVC dowels, to keep the water and sawdust out of those holes. I think your son is think about when he has to change those out after you're gone.😂 always thinking about the inheritance right...😂😂
@@OutpostReview right I started flapping my digital mouth. I thought I heard you address that very issue. I’m thankful for your patience and I look forward to the end result with your sawmill. As always thanks for the RU-vid videos!
Well, I laid the track out with that in mind, but I didn’t have exact measurements on everything so I did allow. I think a couple of inches on the inside from what figures I could find. We’ll just have to wait and see when it gets here.
Coment: I watched the other video you talked about yesterday, I’m more impressed with your design than the other. What you have is like you said OVER KILL but it will be there for a long time!!! Great work !!!!!!
Thank you for the nice comment. I think it’s going to handle the load that that sawmill is capable of and then some. I’m at peace inside and I don’t have any worries about it.
Richard cover the holes with plugs and I would even cover the Timbers tops with ice and water shield to protect it from oil and other chemicals that might soak in to the timber that can cause it to deteriorate or become flammable.
Excellent idea, Raymond. My thought was if it covered it enough and won’t move, those holes would be covered, and the top of the pressure-treated lumber would be protected.
I would go ahead and plug the holes as you said, keeping the saw dust out on the bolt holes will save a lot of work if/when you need to get to the nuts to adjust them. once the timbers dry out you man need to run the nuts back down from time to time. you are doing great on your mountain, take care
Yeah, I’ll probably have to adjust them overtime like you say. I need to be able to get in there to fix something if it goes wrong. Can you imagine trying to replace one of those and not having access to take the nuts off? That could be a disaster, lol.
Not sure about the pressure-treated. I could rub some of the timber oil on them. It won’t hurt him one bit. I thought about painting, actually the bottom portion. If I left them, they would probably eventually deteriorate and break off.
I am so jealous of your set up Richard. The fact that everything you do is so amazing and that you have enough land and the equipment to build homes for your children is a dream come true. May God watch over you and your loved ones.
Well, I’m excited to be able to help them as well. If they decide that’s what they want to do. We want to thank you for all your support and hope that you’re enjoying the videos as we go.
Hey, Not sure but seems like folks like the “chat” instead of the “work” videos that take so much time and effort to make. Our review channel is growing and can’t figure out why, lol
G'day from Down Under. Looking forward to seeing the new Wood Mizer in action. With all your detailed and thorough preparations, it should go without a hitch.😊
Anther great video Richard; one comment, however, those of us who watch your channels would be well served to "do as you say and do". I have learned more from watching you build your homestead than from the others channels to which I am subscribed.
I’m with Jennifer, I’ve always called it a “small sledge hammer”. I looked up the definition of sledge hammer and all references stated it had a long handle. I guess that is why they call it 3 pound hammer.
We called it a 3 pounder as well...but somewhere down the road I started saying " bring me the man hammer"....and it stuck...at least with the buddies I worked with
Always great information. Foundations are important, especially if there are any vibrations or side load impacts. Years ago, we set up a 48x60 inch jaw crusher. The man they sent out to set it up left all kinds of voids in the blocking. I complained about his blocking. I told him that it would not take the movement. The first load through the jaw plant started to move. We spent the next two days stabilizing the plant. We crushed 160k yards through that plant, and it never moved. The total weight of the plant was 105k pounds.
