In todays video I’ll saw through 3 white oak logs! I’ll get 3 cross ties and 4/4 grade lumber off of the sides. If you enjoy the video, please give it a like and hit that subscribe button.
Wow, I've never seen a machine that could make THREE simultaneous wood cuts before, set the wood up flawlessly each time & to be cut precisely automatically... and it's obviously an older machine, too! NICE! THANKS...
Put the camera in the cab with you and give some commentary as you saw. It would be interesting to hear why you make the cuts that you do. Thanks for the videos.
@Helmsburgsawmill...This was an awesome video, thanks for the great editing! In the early 1960's we cut all of 'your species' plus post oak, black oak, hackberry and elm....and, like you I may have missed a few.... We also occasionally cut switch ties (7" X 9" X 10' through 14') if the wood was higher quality. Where is your 'treating plant'/buyer located?
It just depends on the batch of logs that I’m in! If I get into a batch of good logs, I’ll just leave it on all day. I’ll use it almost every log. Other days maybe on just a few logs
I run the same style mill with vertical edger and I use the edger the same way. So the chipper doesn’t get jammed up. Less downtime means more money for the mill
