The way i watched this video was on 2 screens. On one this video and on the other the video of Eddie. Synced up so good that on Eddie's video a can lip read you speaking to Marc. Lots of fun watching this log. And congrats on hitting the 80K
I enjoyed the Q&A in the cab while you were sawing. You should do that more often! I enjoy your channel! Keep doing stop signs! Take care and God bless you all!
I watch your videos just to hear the sound of a 238 which brings bck the memories of the early days of my trucking career. I enjoy watching the logs go from large to small a you whittle them away. Stop signs are one of my favorites.
Every night I watch your videos before I go to bed here in paoli Indiana. I love the sound of the saw cutting the big logs. Thank you for the update on your videos.
No fingers were removed in the making of this video! No stop signs were damaged! Love seeing the American Flag at the end of your videos, keep up the good work! 👏🏽 👍🏼☺
I love your commentary, from sawing, to the occasional reminiscence of how you got into this mill, etc. Good stuff, and you have a very easy style of speaking that is good to listen to.
I was blessed to see a sneak peak on Mr. Horvath's channel. That yielded some very clean lumber. It was making Grandpa drool. He said when he was a boy his Uncle would turn baseball bats out of maple like that. Lots of education in this with your company in the cab. You answered a lot of the questions I was having.
As a pilot the plexiglass to clean it we all used Lemon Pledge for it was wax slick and the bug juice etc came off and did not scratch the windows… cotton diaper… just a thought … try it on a small spot to see what you think.. love your channel…former logger.. lol
I doubt it was silver maple, it was probably hard maple. In fact I'm still trying to figure out what they are going to use that stuff for, its not very desirable wood.
You can lay the squeegee down while checking the chains,, get more done with two hands,, thought you were about to wipe the equipment with it!!😂 just kidding around,, love to watch you guys
Mark, I had a delightful time Saturday morning meeting you, Eddie, and Z Z and I sort of forget the fourth guy, sorry about that. Me and your old friend, Mark have been trying to resurrect an antique tractor for nine months, he his a fantastic mechanic and friend. I can understand how you and Mark still have a relationship even though it's been 38 years! Great meeting you and your fantastic videos. Thank you, Skip
I actually enjoy the "stop sign" logs. Its a bit more challenging to saw i would think but the cant when its finally sawed down to 22 inches just seems to go on forever. What a jag of lumber you got out of thst log. Nice video guys. Very enjoyable to watch. 👍
Still love it when you include the edger footage. When we ran the older mill which didn't have a top saw we made stop signs too, and it didn't waste wood at all!
I really like y’all’s videos. The first truck I drove OTR back in 1977 had a 238 Detroit in it. I knew when I heard your bus motor I knew it was a 238 lol. Keep em coming. I love men stuff. My great grandfather owned a sawmill in the early 1900’s.
Hi Mark and team. I just watched your latest video In quiet amazement. I have never really been working with wood, actually High Tech Aircraft alloys, but just love watching you guys work. fresh cut wood does something for the soul of a man. Thank you.= Ian. UK.
@@markgalicic7788 Keep an eye out around your area for old stores, liquor stores or banks being refurbished or torn down. Check with the crew working on it to see if they have a piece of 3/4" thick bullet proof glass from Customer service or a teller window that's as big or bigger than the cab window that you can salvage. A friend of mine who passed away about 30 yrs ago gave the crew that was emptying out an old bank in Baltimore City to build new buildings in the Inner Harbor a few dollars to let him inside for a week. He pulled 1" thick slabs of marble off the walls and 2 big wrought iron doors and emptied out the old bomb shelter under the bank and used most of it to remodel his house he bought up in Whiteford, MD near the PA line back in the late 80's. Every little bit helps with that blade and the chance something might fly the wrong way. Marty in Baltimore.
Good preparation is and will always make the day easier, as you know one missed pin or broken bolt can cause a disaster (especially cutters coming loose)! Keep safe and thanks for sharing those things that many do not realise need to be done regularly!
👍👌👏 Well done again (video and work). Maintenance is quite an important thing to do. You really got a lot of good boards out of this big log. Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and especially health to all involved people.
Hey Mark, there is a product called PLEXUS made for the plexiglass. We used it on the windscreens of the helicopters in the Army. It would fill in some of the chips and defects in the glass. It helped us extend the life of our windscreens.
You are not joking about the oil for the Detroit. Had a few in some fire trucks I drove over my career. Daily check and if we were busy check it again. I have told THE Eddy I could listen to that all day. I like it when you show more of the behind the scenes. Thank you again. Great videos, stay safe.
I love your channel I love watching it I love watching Eddie's I watched his last night and yours today it was like having an insight into what was happening
Sawing a monster silver maple log with a 56 inch saw #532 - Wow, that sounds like an epic undertaking! Excited to see how you tackle this giant log with such a massive saw. This video is bound to be impressive!
I love these vids. I have a HFC mill to cut up blow downs etc around here on my property. It's an addictive hobby. And my first years lumber will soon be ready to use.
I grew up in a sawmill. Helped my mom and dad for alot of years. We used lean for windows. It'll hold back a .38 if you ever needed it to. More expensive than regular plexiglass but if you ever hit a wire and had teeth fly out of a saw you'll be glad you had that in there. And a little trick to take pine sap off of your window is WD40. It'll take it right off. That and orange goo for cleaning your hands.
I grew up logging in western Canada and working with balsam and sometimes spruce would leave big goobers of pitch on equipment windows. I found furniture polish works wonders to keep the stuff from sticking as hard in the first place. Not all polishes work tho. Pledge is the brand I used the most. I forget which precise flavour tho. Lexan is much too expensive to replace much. But I don't mind sitting behind a 30mm piece when things get rowdy.
In the Old Days I ran a 15 foot travel saw and cut Bank Glass for the Banks. Inch and a quarter thick to an inch and three quarters. We took a German assault rifle from WW2 and fired it at 20 foot away and the glass didn’t give an inch. Cool Video Thank You 🙏
Half past four in the morning thems some good boards seen this log being cut with Eddie very interesting watching both sides of your operation, as an apprentice I remember splitting big logs with a chain saw down the middle them old power saws were heavy for a sixteen year old apprentice, no health and safety in them days just an old fella and common sense stopped you getting hurt, anyway you guys have a nice day
hi guy's good cutting I'm a sawdoctor to trade been doing it since 1970 back home in Scotland Scotland the blade your yousing we call them Yankee worked on a lot bigger blades all the best from Scotland
Cut the pith up into pen blanks or small turning blanks. I personally love making bowls and other stuff with some of the pith showing, it makes for some very stunning pieces. Now if only I was closer to western Pa
Hi from Adelide South Australia ,love your vids ,look forward to evey new one, so relaxing for me to watch , its be in the high 37c to 42 c temps here all week and round 5 % to 15% humidity, hot and dry ,look forward to it cooling down here :)
Strangely satisfying watching this. My wife (an accountant) was saw operator in a very large sawmill for a while. Apparently all the macho boys in the mill were a bit surprised she was better than most of them haha.
Thx Chuck awesome video you just keep working at it we all make mistakes. The person that dont make mistakes never does anything except make rude comments.
I haven't watched your channel for a couple of weeks and was spending the evening watching videos about Donald Trump and his money problems. Then I saw a notice for this video and decide my mind needed a good dose of plain old American hard working people to keep my sanity. I love your videos and God bless you and stay safe.
I already watched this sawing on Eddie's channel, was nice to see the sawing without all the chatter, and from the other end, LOLL, and yes, you are over 80k now, here comes 100k next. and we do love the faucet sawing
Just a rule of thumb about Detroit 2 Strokes If there's no oil under them it's because there's no oil in them Great to see you using an oil Detroit Great video 👍
I had to do a deja vu on this video Mr. Galicic. I figured i probably missed something. There was a lot of information and I had to be sure I didn't miss anything and turns out I did miss a little bit.
If you want to get sap off just about anything, use Eucalyptus Oil. Smells good and works brilliantly. Good for sap, glue, muck, tar and just any muck you want off.
You are right when this aired at 80,000 keep up the great work🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 looking at the way you saw that should I cut a donut off the animated table top a stop sign look would have been neat on a table
this reminds me of making juliennes out of potatoes in culinary school except we threw away the leftovers instead of making use of them. also the cut is so clean until you drag it back against the saw, is there a reason for that? is it a desirable aesthetic? ive used plenty of rough sawn lumber but i just thought it would be too hard to change the process to prevent the saw marks until i saw you make the equivalent to a facing cut at 28:03.
