Geniuses come in all shapes & sizes

It very simple how this happened, political corruption.

does it still work after a year of use?

Menards lumber is junk but they say that's ok to use. I agree with using your own lumber if you have that option

Was it the friction of the wood (yelp) that made him gobble or was it the kid 😅😂

All those trees gave their lives so you could have timbers and lumber.

Hit the treadmill man! Huffing and puffing over some chicken wire 😂😂

Sawmill lumber and even logs with only the joining faces milled is great for building. My concern here is: how are the joints done? I don’t see any proper wood joinery, or the alternative of bolted steel plates or bolted structural wood plates. Are these just toe nailed together?!? If so not only do the not meet any codes, they are DANGEROUS.

you drilled at an angle

This is a great band mill. Where is this mill? What is the name of it? Thank you

What is a "Prozzy"? even your subtitles said "Prostate"

You knew what you were getting before you bought it right ? Deal with it and remember , it was your choice .

I wonder if you could provide information on where I could get a mill like this.

I like what you saying. No buy nothing from China. Americans can build quality materials.

Good evening friend. It's Roger from canada 🇨🇦. I just fund your video, and i do loved it the way you explain all the details. I'm from Brazil, I'm thing going back to a small farm, and definitely i will need couple buildings. I willy want to leran all thing are. I'm a contractor here in Canada, doing lots renovation jobs, and finishing basement. Thanks to allow to lear from your expertise. God bless.

i learned to sharpen at a young age because when i started cutting firewood with my dad he told me if i hit the dirt i had to sharpen it. i learned not to hit the dirt real quick for sure lol. and it just takes practice to sharpen a chainsaw. people always try to find a gimmicky tool to get a sharp chain and non of them are really that great the stihl 2 in 1 file guide is alrgiht but not for me. and on a short bar yeah it can be faster to sharpen then change but i run a 24 inch bar most the time and it can take a good 15 minutes to sharpen one thats really rocked hard. even longer if you gotta hit the rakers. i switched over to square file and it cuts way faster. just need a double bevel file to do it. if you already can sharpen well it shouldnt be much of a learning curve. it makes cleaning out facecuts way faster it grabs those dutchmans way easier. and a good raker gauge is one that west coast saws makes its made out of good steel

You can you just wouldn’t be able to get insurance on the house because of the lumber not being graded but if it’s your land you can do it especially if you pay taxes on the land. So buy some land outside of the city and you will be fine. My family built their houses out of rough cut lumber and the houses are still standing can’t deny old growth wood you already own on your land is a lot better than what you can buy.

Do you do anything to dry those timbers before you build? Possibly seal end grain? I’m cutting large eight by eights to build some small structures on my Homestead like a bridge over a creek and a pole barn, etc. wondering if I should do something to preserve or dry them more before building with them.

Isn't it wonderful living in the only truly free country where you can own your own land and build your own house anyway you like without having to ask someone's permission or pay for permission? So nice not to be told what you can do and what materials you can or can't use. What a great freedom we have 🤔

I would like to be able to browse the plans and just buy one I like

The Amish get away with this threw religious freedom. I'm gonna try that approach when I start on my house next year.

I watched a video awhile back and this guy had his own sawmill and was going to build his own house; he was told the same thing, it wasn't graded lumber, but he was also told that he could call one of the the grading companies and have someone come out and grade his lumber; the only thing he had to do was be there to move the wood from one pile to the other ( once it was graded it was moved to a separate Pile or stack ) I don't know what the cost would be but it would probably be worth it.

The band mills are so much safer than circle mills. No comparison.

I just saw "Lifting Entire Truss Bays EASILY With Chain Hoists (My New Prototype)! | DIY Barndominium Ep.12" - Hart and Home. His trusses seemed to be on the lighter weight variety. I don't know what specs would be needed for a chain hoist for various beam/truss construction. He seemed to join two trusses so he could lift them square and keep them braced once in position. I'm new to this. I just know that getting a heavy machine in certain areas isn't always practical or economical.

Amazing video!! Thank you for making such great content

Hi Aron You did a great job for a post and beam. But you have it listed as a timber frame. Do you do any true timber frames without the plates?

Where are the piers?

Wow

I would like to see a video just like this on making this a house.

Woodpeckers and carpenter bees?

I've got to see if I can combine some of these techniques for a shed like on the woodwood1 channel for a Korean hanok. They tend to use full rounded logs for the posts and rafters although some lumber is milled square in the bent assembly. The precise joinery always throws me off even if they stick to 45 and 90 degree angles. :)

Can they use power tools? Or battery tools? If not, please state exact reason.

how much was the cost

Afternoon, I really appreciate your videos they have a lot of knowledge in them. I have a quick question i just recently bought 5 acres in Memphis MI do you have a way i could reach out for questions when i have them,

will it be kiln dried?

Those boys on that mill know what work is

Thx for the info buddy.. I’m looking into getting mill soon here in NC.. has there been any changes n do you have any info or resources here in NC that could point me in the right direction?

Thanks for the video very helpful

Edit for quality

If you were to build one of these barns to live in would it require many changes in the construction process?

May I have some oats brother

This is everything I needed!

It is most likely the Emerald Ash Borer, a destructive beetle that tunnels under the bark, disrupting the tree’s nutrient flow. Infestations can weaken the tree and make it susceptible to disease.

this mill will still be running after your 4th woodmizer. Many old Fricks and Corley mills sawed one half million feet per year since the fifties and still could produce 5000 feet a day .

This is interesting being I have a lot of very big EWP. I was told not to expose the WP to the elements because it s not very rot resistant? Also I was told not to use it in load bearing due to the number of weak spots from branching in the wood? For obvious reason I want to use the WP.

You didn’t do heat cycles??? 4-5 tanks to get it broken in.

Old style caps on it. Not the flipper caps.

Well at least your a pro!!! Can be rebuilt though.

Gratitude 🙏 I will check out your website and subscribe to mailing list. Good stuff!

I love the roof lines here. So many monitor barns I think are spoiled by the roof pitch differences or not. Is there a rule you go by? It looks like the lean too's are 4/12 whereas the center structure is between 6 and 8/12.
