Fantastic! I learned so much from this detailed video. It's fascinating to watch the precision in handling these massive logs. The clarity and detail in this video are top-notch. I'm eagerly waiting for your next video. Continue with the great work!
Most very impressive organization/business for which one has to be very proud of/ or to be associated with. I salute you for your endeavors Gentlemen 🤪☝️🤟✌️🙏🤪🇨🇱
Amazing! I really learned a lot from this video. It's amazing to see how big logs are cut. The video quality is excellent. I'm really looking forward to the next video. Keep it up!
My 6yo son watched this as a part of a lesson for homeschool we discussed harvest of trees to produce lumber so we learn about loggers and then the production end in the sawmill. Thanks for posting this!
As an amateur woodworker I watch every saw mill tour video on RU-vid that I can find. This is definitely one of the best saw mill tour videos I have seen. Great work.
finally a decent video of a sawmill in action. Well done. I just noticed this is almost five years old so it is well within my knowledge. A decent clean modern mill.
I worked in a plywood mill in the 70's in Jasper Texas. Very similar to this mill. So many chances to get injured or killed. And some did. My uncle lost two fingers, one finger on two different occasions. That way he got to experience it twice. An 18 year old boy went through a wood chipper. The biggest part of him that came out on the other side was an index finger still attached to a thumb. Not to mention breathing wood splinter dust all day. Beware. Avoid this job at all costs!
I started out stacking then move to operating the edger then file room for 3yrs working on band saws gang saw, edger saws trim saw chipper knives ..then moved to circular head saws now im a head Sawyer cutting the lumber I love a sawmill such fun challenging work
Great Video, I have worked in Sawmills for 18 years.This is the best one I have seen to date that explains everything. Good Job! How many GoPros gave their live for filming of this?
@@tomwolf4609 what is the most commonly cut timber in Montana? I'm an arkansas mill hand and we mostly cut yellow pine but also alot of red and white oak hard wood
normally a canter head is only used on massive over sized logs with big flares. they cause a lot of waste and pine chips are not sought after as much as spruce chips.
Wow very automated what an awesome mill. I thought the plumcreek mill in montana i worked at for 27 yrs was awesome (it was) but i guess that was 10 yrs sgo.
I worked at a dry kiln and planer operation that used Western Hemlock,Douglas Fir and Sitka Spruce.The boards would be dried BEFORE they where run through the planer,rather than after.

12:20 Our QC throws a fit if we stack a pack like that. He missed his mark a couple inches left and he stacked the pack crooked. The left side is even with the pack under it but the right side is askew and sitting too far back. They expect perfection from us altho our yard is full of dips, ruts, mudholes, and all kinds of uneven rough terrain that makes the job about as difficult as it can get. We also have to stack 4 high instead of 3 and our packs are all 38 inches tall (was 36 up til a week or two ago)
The existence of this place is very contemplative to me. On one hand - I can only marvel at the engineering wonder of the state. On the other hand.... this is how we treat one of G-d's most precious resources? To kill the plant and have not even dignity enough to touch it as each board from each long is cast into random stacks like broken bits off all the same log into random stores... I just can't help the feeling that this is as wasteful as it is efficient of time: of human life, ingenuity, metal, G-d, all of it. Super cool though!!
Did you even watch the video? People are touching the logs as they pass by. I don't know what you mean by treating lumber with dignity. Do you think there should be a rabbi there blessing it all? lol
The only person in that company that's expendable as the owner the manager the chief executive those people who are dead weight the employees to be the employee should be making all the money
I hate it when people use GoPros just because they can, even when it makes for a terrible point of view. This video is irritating to watch. You can't see anything.

This is an uneducated statement. Logging, at least the way we do it here in Canada, is world famous for our sustainability. In 2010, we lost only 0.02% of our forest land, and that is most likely due to urban sprawl. Whatever we cut, we replant and grow back. In fact, we cut trees in a way that strategically helps the ecosystem. For example, we might cut a patch of pine trees and replant with cherry trees. Those cherry trees will then feed local wildlife and encourage a stronger ecosystem and healthier biodiversity.
J what's missing in this picture employees this is more of the Rich and powerful starving the poor to guess that company should it be owned by the employees and that place should be filled with people getting 15 to $20 an hour the company should be making no profit all profits should be going in the pockets of the employees
Trees are renewable and can be replanted. Metal is not renewable and can only be recycled. Additionally, metal is significantly more expensive than wood.
