Very much enjoyed this, thank you. Our farm has about 50 acres of heavily-wooded land so we make use of a sawmill as well. For me, the decision to buy one came from a subscriber to our yootoob channel a number of years ago. He actually gave me the first $1000 towards the purchase. He became a highly-valued friend and mentor. Sadly, he passed away before I ever had the chance to meet him in person (he was in VA and I live in WI). I miss him dearly. Anyway, he told me that sawing cherry and walnut would make me cry, in that I would be seeing this beautiful wood come off the mill, but it would twist and warp badly in the drying process - even when stacked and stickered properly. He was right! LOL And yes, sawing hickory can increase one's use of four-letter words if you're not careful. Extremely hard wood and hard on blades. Keep up the good work!

I don't know anything about sawing lumber other than what I've seen you and your Dad do and Jim Gordon. Jim Gordon and his wife have a youtube channel called Working Horses with Jim. He has a Wood Mizer and has been sawing lumber for many years. He may be able to answer some of your questions. I enjoy your videos and watch each one. Thanks for makin em.

I’ve been enjoying your channel for about 9 months. It’s great to see how resourceful you guys are. I’ve spent many hours sawing lumber on a 25 year old Wood Mizer LT30 so I can easily relate to how you saw lumber out of even the most crooked trees. I hope your Diesel engine last many hours. The Kohler Command on the LT 30 was replaced 3 times in the first 100hours. The 4th motor now has well in excess of 1000 hours with no issues.

Y'all are sawing some nice lumber with the mill. I enjoy watching your videos. Yes I would say hickory is a tough wood on the blades it's hard on a saw chain for sure. Cherry is definitely easier on the blades. Y'all are doing a lot of learning and sharing what you have learned. Very nice sawmill. Handy when you need some lumber for projects around the farm.

Yes the bark is tough. But if your logs have been sitting for a long while they are twice as hard to saw. Believe me I know from experience. Especially Hickory!! It will bow and flex and twist. It’s a bear. Best to saw it green. Much easier my friend. Shannon

Dad's go a new toy!! That's how we use to edge lumber with the old circular, stack them up, and run them thru! Can you slow down the forward motion on the saw? I suspect hickory is the toughest! Maybe if you're sawing hickory going slower it wouldn't be wavy! I'm a meat cutter, and when I saw just plain bones, it takes the sharp out of the blade!

I have been operating sawmills for many years and without the benefit of learning from an experiened sawyer, most knowledge will be learned over time. You will learn to read the logs better, determine proper milling of log curvitures, where to buck logs to reduce waste, know species and so on. You will look back at your early days of milling and recognize you are presently producing a tremendous amount of waste. Most of the work is in the offbearing process. Handling technique and distance are everything in reducing material handling labor. Carrying lumber distances is not a good thing. Distance of moves converts directly into time and extra distance is lost time. Handling materials with the least effort over the least distance in the name of the game. You should quickly get the idea. Best of luck in your lumber milling ventures! Nick, North West Farmer (Oregon)

That shag bark will take the set out of your saw. I would think that is where the debarker would be nice. I don't think the hickory wood shortens your blade life. It is the bark.

Good morning hey I'm replying to the episode where you're trying to figure out what to do with a water in the barn in the tie barn my suggestion will be that you guys switch the pex go with 1-in feeds 3/4-in drops and run it in the ceiling where the heat is and drops to each individual waterer You guys will soon realize the affordability and the flexibility of packs and the durability is amazing I started putting this stuff in 15 years ago when it first came out and have had very little troubles if any other than someone catching it with a screw or someone destroying it You can also do steel drops with PEX overhead because they make an accommodation for that where you can shark bite into the pecs in and out and do a steel drop or a copper drop your choice Hope this helps in some way Peace and love and be blessed

By leaving boards on while cutting , does that put alot more stress on blade, and wear out drive wheels faster

Do you have a purpose for the sawdust?? Bedding?? Or do you just spread it around. I know the Amish sawyer we use doesn't care for sawing hickory either or elm. Definitely anything that has metal in it of course.... Nasty surprises that would make anyone curse.

I was told that hickory picks up silica from the ground while growing. As such it dulls blades quite quickly. It’s a real bear to work with.
