Bloody hell thats fast. Love the set up, especially the way it turns the log.

[@danielneikes5960]

@@waltersaari7954 Been at it around 15 years. Thanks for the compliment. The man that owns the mill taught me so I learned watching him as an owner operator. So I learned how to get with it. Lol

i am a sawyer in the pilipines i like a machine

[@georgewilson2185]

Black oak right?

[@daysofthunder1987]

yes

[@danielneikes5960]

We saw it all.

[@JohnNaturkach]

With the bark on the logs I’m sure he has to sharpen the blade quite often. Even if they were carbon teeth.

[@daysofthunder1987]

i'm not sure how often he sharpens but yeah when it's been raining the logs are full of mud

[@markbarton1468]

We would sharpen every two hrs at the sawmill I used to work at, unless you hit a rock or something

[@markbarton1468]

I never saw anyone saw this fast before.

[@danielneikes5960]

I sharpen every 2 - 2 1/2 hours unless there’s metal or rocks. Full disclosure though I had just sharpened the saw before this video was made so it was running its best.

[@AndyRyan-qt5ks]

First sawyer ive seen on KZbin. Not to much travel...actually keeps enough lead ect. Another 40hp on head and a scrag to take care of the little bolts and this fellow could do another 8000ft in a day.

[@markgalicic7788]

nice mill.

[@marfy01]

What an awesome set up. I need a hurdle carriage for my saw😅 How often do you need to sharpen?

[@danielneikes5960]

About 3 times daily. Unless the logs are extra dirty or I hit metal.

[@marfy01]

@danielneikes5960 Wow! 3 times a day?? Are these carbide inserts you guys are using? With a debarking process? That's alot of sharpening, I'm doing about 2-3 days before a touch up

[@danielneikes5960]

Simonds 9/32 carbides. No debarker.

[@danielneikes5960]

@@marfy01 what are you sawing? How much production do you get?

[@marfy01]

@danielneikes5960 We saw coniferous, mostly spruce and pine. We don't debark at this time either we pressure wash our logs on the infeed. We do approximately 25,000 bdft every 2 shifts. Nothing spectacular, small family operation
