TREASURE from TRAGEDY!! Milling Burned Wildfire Logs Into BEAUTIFUL Beams 

Good neighbor’s looking out for one another is great to see. Great looking beams.

Good evening, Those 6" x 10" because I see vertical grain, could almost be select structural lumber. Beautiful . Have a blessed Resurrection Day.

If you have room to put an air hose nozzle between the de-barker and the saw blade, you can blow the black sawdust off before the blade comes in contact with the wood.

The first couple cuts ended up looking like a well smoked brisket. I’m hungry!

Awesome beams, beautiful grain! Love me some Olight!! Thanks for sharing, God bless

Good neighbors are great! Growing up in rural, coastal Maine it was similar. And there was frequently a shotgun somewhere to hand. Thanks for the video! (Once again, impressive hydraulics on the mill.)

That's some amazing beams that came from that log. Even with the knots, that is fantastic straight grain wood.

Sweet cuts! Thanks for sharing your work!

Excellent! So good to see something positive come from such a trajedy. Well done!

Awesome job,,,thank you sharing

It is Taylor's Saw Mill on Island Pond Road in Derry, NH. It is closed but you can walk around. They built a house on site with lumber milled right there.

That's good looking wood, Jason. It's amazing how much beauty can come from such darkness and disasters. Stay safe. Bill

Looks like a Nice Log 👍Small Wood Mizer tip is always have the mill running when using the log handing equipment as the system needs the alternates positive amps on heavy logs. Nice work on the Video 👍🍻

What a productive day. Love the mill. First time viewer. My Woodmizer left Indiana yesterday. Hopefully I will get it soon. Not as fancy as yours but I’m excited. Loved watching you mill the lumber. I’ve subscribed to learn what I can from you. I have lots to learn. Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful night..!!

Getting wood from wood,great recycling. I've seen so many good logs shredded . noyce to see you saving theM

Welcome back online. Role model of resiliency. Touche.

Glad to see you using the sawmill again! I hope things are getting better for you and your family. Stay safe.

Tight grain on that pine will make strong beams for structures.

Such beautiful logs! Beautiful logs make beautiful beams! Keep the great videos coming!

Just found your channel, so now I have to go back to see what I have missed. Thanks for sharing.

1:22 😲 that was kind of awesome. Mad trailer-hitching skillz.

Nice beams! Did 6 hrs of chainsaw milling today making 50" wide maple slabs and have about 6 more hrs tomorrow. Cant wait to get back to the Woodmizer, the chainsaw mill is so much more work!

I do not think the Northeast has seen a tree that was straight enough for a 16 ft beam in the last 100 years. Great wood and fine sawing. Thanks. Oh, there is a working sawmill about a mile down the road from my house here in southern New Hampshire. There was an operating up n down mill driven bt a water wheel a few miles away that operated as a museum until some cheapskate governor shut it down.

You have a nice portable mill doin great things with the burned timber cut some nice beams

Beautiful piece of lumber....👍🇬🇧

Some nice beams. Thanks for showing us.

It’s amazing to me how the fire only burns the exterior of that tree and not all the way through. Your patience in approaching your projects and work helps me deal with my jobs. Great work and videos.

Working with burned logs reminds of when I was a pre-teen and we built 200'X200' pole enclosure with posts and poles we cut from a burn outside LA Pine. Nasty, nasty work

It was interesting you were able to include your neighbor into your sponsor commercial. Those trees, despite the char, look to be in great condition. The house I grew up in was built in 1902 with dimensionally exact lumber. When we went to remodel and add on it was hard to match the walls even after the lathe and plaster was torn down

I think it would be interesting for you to perhaps price up the wood you saved from those trees after completing the cutting I’m sure plenty would be interested to know the cost of that much lumber at current prices brother.

Good looking wood!

Make lemonade from lemons. Don't worry about removing the bark after milling shashugi ban the wood.

Awesome! Peel that silver lining so you have useful lumber to rebuild.

Great episode. Beautiful wood

Well. I leaned something. I need to weld me a hitch on my grader box! 😬 nice logs with a good centered pith. Great work!

That would be lumber I would be proud to re-build with. Especially with lumber prices during this pandemic. 👍

That lantern is bright. It would be nice if the lantern has a reflector shield, so that you can choose between a 360 degree illumination, or a directional shine.

Nice looking lumber 👍👍👍👍👍👍

Beautiful lumber from the wildfire. Lucky your neighbor didn't come down with his 1911 when he was doing his neighborhood watch.

Good stuff!

Great video , wow lot of effort to get a bit timber , I guess you guys use what’s local. Fantastic job . Respect from paul in England

Nice job. Silver lining to a dark cloud.

10/10 for trailer back up skills!!

Top video 👍🏻

wonderful, they won't go to waste

Its good to see you back. I always enjoy your videos. Stay safe.

Just a gentle suggestion.....put your tape pouch on the left side of your belt. When I worked construction; the "left" side was considered the "dumb" side. Holding the tape measure in your "dumb" hand allowed you to use your "smart" right hand to do the "smart" stuff like marking boards. 'Course if you are left handed then you would reverse this logic.

Its amazing how fast nature makes everything green and normal again 😃

Great job!

love that debarker

I'm wondering if pre brushing these logs with a twist knot brush 8" or more might be worth it, if a guy set himself up with such machinery to do that, one could make a good business of it right now. Brush & powerwash logs for the mills or own use.

Awesome camera work

Looks like some counter weights are in order to move those heavy logs with. Nice video. Subscribed.

I hope you will be able to get the bark from the logs before you cut them.

thanks man, love the videos

I saw the blade exit after the first flitch and said "that blades dull!" But you caught that too 😉

Awesome neighbor 👍.

Good to see you're up and running. Been hoping for a video from you for a while, been wondering how you're doing. Best wishes from Norway.

Burnt bark is ok at mills! Burnt wood is no pay or big hit on price! I’m a operator for a logging company out of Estacada! We have 3 big jobs past your house salvaging timber before it’s no good

Olight’s are the best

nice beams .

I noticed you had to take the tractor in order to carry that blade up to your sawmill that must be one heavy blade LOL.

Would one consider cutting the beams a smidgen wider and or taller, then taking a veneer cut to get rid off the black ash marks?

After watching many videos on many different sawmills I believe that the LT35 hydraulic is what I'm going to get. I like that they come with most options already on the machine. Right now the Debarker is free add on promo. Do you think it's a waist to get the 2 additional hydraulic side supports. You must only use them on very short logs. Do you feel the 25hp Kohler has enough power? There are many different blades you can get from Woodmizer, do you have a favorite blade you like to use? Do you send your blade back to woodmizer to get sharpened? I went to a local sawyer who gives demo on his mill for woodmizer and he uses there blade sharpening service. His mill was an old LT15 sitting right on the ground and I didn't like it much. I also demoed a pretty new LT15GO model, it was mush better but I know I would out grow it very quickly. I've learned a lot from watching you work and enjoyed how you do your videos! Keep up the good work!

I sometimes pressure wash my logs if they are super muddy it sucks but may make it easier if you are going to pressure wash anyway just a thought. Nice beams.

Been watching ,” out of the woods” sawyer. He has the same wm but I think he has a couple more bells and whistles. 👍

Sadly we now have a couple generations that will probably never understand the idea of setting things up so you can get something done, "when you come home from work".

This is an awesome video I’ve never seen this done before

I want to say thank you for being a perfect example of using safe at all times. I'm referring to you working on your own property and wearing your hard hard hat, safety goggles and ear protectors. Lot of people think,"it's my own property I don't have to wear safety gear.

👍👏

Awesome job, as always, keep making lemonade! 👍👍👍👍💙❤️💚💜🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸. God Bless 🙏

JASON, just thinkin, to eliminate the concern of the charcoal on your sawmill cuts, use that traditional Japanese style of wood finish/ preservation ... 'Shou Sugi Ban' !

GREAT JOB SAWYER!

Still have lots to do..God bless friend!

Might one make these boards candidate for shou sugi ban? I see where Out Of The Woods did this process to his timber frames.

Nice job and have a nice day.

I know of many people who were sold Oregon that was recovered after the Mt St. Helens eruption, and it was all very poor with no "heart" and absorbed moisture easily and rotted out.

When you do a big job your mill is covered with sawdust. How often do you clean it and what do you use--compressed air, regular hose or pressure washer? What do you do with all of the sawdust and scraps too small to use as fuel?

Cool video and nice lantern as well ,would be nice to see some of the wildfire lumber used in one of your firepit builds

Love your videos

just a thought. what if you made 8-12 cuts circumferentially around the log? Thereby removing all the bark. Make an oversized cant ant then mill the cant down to desired dimension? Would that eliminate the scorch. We cut SYP all the time around here with char on the base due to yearly prescribed burns in the south. We do this a lot.

Great video mate love them all keep it up

Out of the fires of hell has come some good

such a sad thing that happened for all the the people in the west coast but Im so glad you can use that and some good can come out of it and not just wasted. question I have what kind of blade is in the debarker is it like a circular saw blade? God bless you and all the families

Jason, good video. Please remember to add the subtitles feature to your videos for those of us that are hearing-impaired.

40k view in 10 days . . . from a 34k sub pool? You have one amazing video.

Good evening from St John Parish, Louisiana 25 Oct 20.

Who the hell dislikes a guy sawing wood ??? That is just mean.

Can't you cut the largest cant then slice off 1/4" on sides 1 & 3 then 1/2" off of sides 2 & 4 then 1/4" off of sides 1 & 3. This way you'll never have any bark stains.

Have you got job orders for the lumber or are you milling to common sizes to best recover and maximise the log Jason.

We use a log wizard and remove the burnt bark first saves the blade

new sub, just found you, i really like seeing making little ones out of big ones...so-to-speak! i worked in a sawmill when i was a kid, i can still smell the lumber when i'm watching you.

Would be awesome if that new lantern had a magnetic base.

Hi Jason first timer .Liked the saving of the burnt timber . Did you loose your home to the fire ? Retired from TFD 7 years . big fan of bucking Billy ray Smith on Vancouver island . Mike Draper

Beautiful wood out of the charred trees. So sad so many trees god destroyed.

That first log would of been a good pole log to sell. Good pole logs bring more money than a lumber log. Burn usually done matter because they debark them and cut them down to size.

NiceJob!!

Nice milling skills but one question....how do you plan to dry that stock so it doesn't crack, twist, or otherwise warp? Best wishes and stay healthy.

I wonder if using a high pressure water hose or pressure washer could get rid of a lot of that soot? Wishing you the best after those fires. God Bless. Terry

Beautiful beams man. How close are you to Florida? I would love to start building my cabin.
