Moving a shed full of lumber is harder than it looks. I'm getting down to work today as I've got some stumps to grind, sheds to move and land to clear as I make way for the new sawmill shed that I"m about to build. With the weather quickly changing from summer to fall I've got my work cut out for me. Looks like it will be a race against time to get things prepped and ready for the next step which will be concrete footings. Let's take one step at a time however and keep my fingers crossed that today goes well. Here we go!

Its like you took a big eraser and wiped the slate clean. Good stuff! I was reading the comments about taking down some trees and my thoughts are if you can't go completely around the structure with your tractor, I would consider getting them down. It would make it easier to clear debris, plow snow and to turn around. So exciting, take care Sandy! 👋🍁

@sawingwithsandy 15 дней назад

I think you’re right there Jill. Getting all the way around the shed is key and something I was missing out on before

@bobwollard9105 17 дней назад

Sandy, it appears to me that now would be the perfect opportunity to remove more of the trees around your sawmill area to provide additional working space. You'll never have a better chance than now. Looking forward to the new build.

@sawingwithsandy 17 дней назад

Thanks Bob!

@aspendell209 15 дней назад

I like where you're going with it so far. Also, consider drainage. If the ground is flat for 20 meters around the structure, it may be worth raising a pad about 8" high, out 20' or so from the building where u will be accessing it with tractor and such. That way you don't have to drag logs and your equipment thru a mud-hole to load logs, move lumber, etc... Then during snowmelt and rainy seasons, you will have a dry island to work on.

@runsolo7418 16 дней назад

Just a couple ideas. You could reuse the old lumber and build a quick easy-peasy shed for all your implements. Nothing fancy, just something to keep the weather off them, and make remove/attaching them easier. My vote is that sawdust management be a key factor in the new sawmill shed design. The old shed deck was constantly covered in sawdust, and I'm trying to think of a way to attach some sort of flex pipe to the mill to direct the sawdust outside. Once outside you can use the tractor/rake to move the sawdust wherever you want.

@sawingwithsandy 16 дней назад

I like that idea you've got there! Getting rid of the dust will be key for sure. I think I"ll look more into the flex pipe like you mentioned. Thanks for that idea!

Howdy Sandy- you sure made your area look nice. I could watch videos like this for hours. Could almost smell that fresh churned soil. Hope you are able to get your shed up before bad weather sets in. Back up in the nineties Fahrenheit here this week. Take care and God bless

It’s sure been warm here too! I’m shocked I haven’t had to have the woodstove on atleast once or twice yet this year in my house.

@dougpark1025 17 дней назад

Just before you started talking about possibly not having enough space I was thinking it would probably be a good idea to take out more of the trees. At the very least give yourself enough room to drive your tractor around all your structures. The trees close to where you are going to build will only get bigger and be a lot harder to get out later. Looks like you have a good start.

@sawingwithsandy 17 дней назад

Thanks Doug! Yeah is a good time to take some trees down for sure.

@deprived56501 17 дней назад

@09FLTRMM77 16 дней назад

MM77 Approved 👍🏻 👍🏻………………………………… I know it was hard to take down a perfectly good building, but in the end I think it will be worth it and you will have a better sawmill shed. I’ll be watching no matter what!

@timscartoys9321 17 дней назад

Just remember that however big the space looks or how big the building looks on paper, it will be filled up the very second it is finished!! Buildings that seem huge on paper are soon overfilled with just the current equipment, not to mention anything new that is larger or just added to your equipment arsenal!! The best plans always allow for expansion, and they are built with the future in mind, so please make sure you plan ahead for lengthening or widening your building!!

@sawingwithsandy 17 дней назад

That is very true right there Tim. I could build a 1000x1000 building and eventually it would be fill too lol. Good point about expansion

@timscartoys9321 16 дней назад

Exactly!! I didn't respond sooner to your request for suggestions because I knew you would have plenty of ideas, but thinking about the future is so important with this big of an investment, so as not to have to tear it down to start over in a couple of years after outgrowing what you hope is the ultimate sawmilling shed!!

awesome clean-up job. Always nice to have plenty of space in and around the sawmill shed. This allow easy maneuvring and make life much more pleasant. Looking forward to the build. Yep, although its been 30+ humidex for the past 10 days, winter is just around the corner but still have many very plaisant days ahead

@growzen3853 15 дней назад

When I’m envisioning a structure or pile, or other obstruction around my property. I will take marking paint maybe some stakes and mark everything out and live with it a week or so. Drive around it with tractor, experiment with whatever might need to occur around it, look at it at night during the day etc. it has enabled me to make layout, location, utility, and just satisfaction with the final location and orientation adjustments that would always bug me later. Cheap easy no effort step. I don’t have the time left to do it twice. Enjoy your content sir trying do something similar on 30 acres in sc, USA. Did live in Nova Scotia so sympathize with your winters.

@carlmclelland7624 17 дней назад

Ha! Got the first comment. I'll edit it later. It's later, and you've just finished moving the shed and cleaned up the area. YES... it certainly looks bigger and open, and lot's of sky & sunlight. In planning the building layout, plan enough cleared area around them to get the tractor with snowblower all the way around. I sure wish I had those stacks of hardwood slabs! OK, it's look good, Sandy. If you have a small enclosed room, 10x10, for example, you'll have space for a sludge-maker, a folding chair, and a heater for winter. (I know where you can get firewood for your heater).... Thing better than a hot sludge when you take a break, and sweating from the warmth as the snow falls outside.......

@sawingwithsandy 17 дней назад

Hey Carl! You're right about that one. Nothing like a place to get warm and sit back and relax for a little bit to a nice hot sludge!

Good afternoon Sandy as I reed a few comment I we agree on cutting a few extra trees around the area would easy right now to make sure you got room to go all around the compound with the tractor and snow blower look big right now but once you put a building in there it will shrink and yes a little enclose camp would defenatly be nice to take a break drink some slug sit in a recliner take a nap lol and then back to work a little wood stove in there be perfect something to think about for sure that rake did a good job cleaning the place well have a great day

@Z-Bart 17 дней назад

A clean slate for the artist to begin work. If you could do it all over again, you are ;) would you have used more screws instead of the ring shanked nails?

@sawingwithsandy 17 дней назад

Good question. I wouldn't build with screws unless they were special screws strong enough for framing as the nails are a good bit stronger than traditional "deck screws" which lack comparable shear strength. The nails used where I live for building homes are the same ones I build all my structures with which are the 3.5" (16d) spiral hot galvanized nails.

@kenbowers8423 17 дней назад

Good afternoon, Sandy! You definitely have a large, fresh palette to build the new and improved sawmill/lumber storage building. That landscape rake does a great job of cleaning up the debris. The long-range forecast is predicting a drier fall, so this will hopefully aid you in your construction. Greetings from Peterborough.

Hey Ken! It sure has been a warm end to September eh! I'm out here sweating like it's middle of summer still. Leaves are changing quick though. Before I know it I"ll be back on the snowblower lol. I sure do like that landscape rake. I couldn't imagine now having one now

@xpoolguy5406 17 дней назад

That was a good work session with great results. It is always satisfying to have the tools you need when you need them. I'm in the same race as you. Halfway through setting piers for a drive shed to house tractor attachments etc. I have most of the posts, beams and lumber milled knowing that snow will be here soon enough. Still lots of other jobs around here that need to be settled too. Never ends but I love it

@sawingwithsandy 17 дней назад

I'm with ya there. Never ends but sure is a great time out working for sure. Usually my chores that I have to do before winter actually get shut down by the snow then I forget all about them until spring haha

Have you thought of making the buildings on skids? Similar to a shed construction. This way you can move the buildings around when needed.

I haven't seen that building method to be honest. Sounds like a neat concept however

@mikechristensen9744 16 дней назад

@@sawingwithsandy I've done exactly that for two sheds and an outside staircase so far. All I needed was some bracing added prior to moving them. My 20 x 30 foot vehicle building(carport) is on 2x10s in fact as it will be moved once I finish the house...about a 75 foot move and am very confident that I will have no issues in doing so. I built it prior to the house so I wouldn't have to keep tarping all my ATVs, snowmobile etc and would have a dry place for working on equipment and store some firewood...which worked well until I purchased the mill and it became my mill shed! oh well! 🙂

I dont think its a problem, as it seems quite flat in the area. But doing ground water control, in the form of a small open V trench. to control any water from a uphill area running water in to the mill area. Not having buildings right now would be a good time. 0.01c

I don't understand why so many on RU-vid talk about the red pine having been planted and does not self-propagate. What is the deal with this?

@sawingwithsandy 16 дней назад

Red pine are commonly planted in areas previously cleared where conditions are right. My land had these red pine planted by humans to fill in an area that was once open .

@ronatwell5379 16 дней назад

@@sawingwithsandy Thanks, but another part of my question is WHY it does not self propagate. It must propagaate somewher in order to get seedlings. What sets that area (wherever it is?) apart and allow the red pine to reproduce there?

@mikechristensen9744 16 дней назад

@@ronatwell5379 Red Pine has always been native to the northeastern US west to the great lakes area...and of course it can self propagate. I have never heard anyone state that they cannot self-propagate. The only reason a plant could not reproduce normally, in my opinion, is if a hybrid was created genetically and the Red Pine is not a hybrid. But as most pines were almost completely cut over by the early 1900's most of the red pine you see now are descendants of the plantation plantings that occurred in the '30s and '40s by the CCC (Civilian Conservation Corp). Many states outside of the Red Pine's normal native range also have had plantations placed.

@@mikechristensen9744 Perhaps I'm just thinking I heard them say that. But, i'm sure they pointed out how that white pine was coming up everywhere but not red pine seelings in a mixed stand. Thanks for your input and help.
