I had 95 pulp cord of white pine harvested from my property this past year. I had a problem finding anyone willing to purchase it, but finally did. I have more left to harvest, some as large as 38" breast height.
Nice. Lots of firewood in those slabs. How did you get it square Case after the first cut. The backstops are not very tall. And what is the thing on the ceiling at the end of the cut that swings back and forth. Great video. I like watching that. Have a great day.
Thanks Noel. I just get it flat against the stops and eyeball it. I have used a framing square in the past, but don’t feel it’s necessary for framing lumber. The thing swinging is the hoist controller. 👍🙏🍺
Try checking the throttle cable near the motor. Sometimes it needs adjustment from the factory. SawingwithSandy has a video with this same mill and he shows how he adjusted his after assembly. Great looking outfit though.
Just a thought. Once cut #1 is complete, I have had great success with cut #2 exactly square to #1 by flipping the log so the cuts align perfectly. No need to be concerned about how the log “sits” against your stops for your second cut. Most of my milling is for cants.
Sawmills are no different than any other consumer product that has multiple manufacturing competition. (i.e.) The old adage, "You get what you pay for" is not just a slogan, it's a recorded factual truth within all commercial and industrial corporations. As such, anyone who is thinking about buying a sawmill should think long and hard about what their plans are for the mill, why they are thinking about purchasing a specific name brand and model, how long they expect the mill to last, what size of logs will they be cutting, have they got extra cash for breakdowns or will they be getting a good insurance replace and repair policy with the mill they are about to purchase, will they have a sufficient supply of tree logs to cut, if you are cutting for profit, will you have customers and/or mill competition, etc. etc. etc. The list goes on and on, so be careful and take your time, and most of all, consult with a long time sawyer before making a final decision to purchase a mill !!!
This may be too late, but I've had a generator that wasn't putting out electricity before. I started the generator, plugged in a drill and turned the drill by hand backwards while holding the trigger. Steve goes over it here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-z2_iYufvXcA.html
Thank you sir. I flashed this generator before when I had this same issue and it worked then. It was used up until not long before this video. Nothing is made to last anymore. I appreciate the link 👍
