How long does it take to turn a log into 2x4's

[@slrcustomguitars]

It takes me longer than that to sort through the bin to find a straight one !! Nice.

Nice video - I like the grinder idea to clear the dirt out of the bark. Just a heads up - Your log clamps (not the clamps themselves, but the housing they sit in) are technically backwards. The top of the log clamp should be tilted towards the log, rather than away from the log... When I set up my 130Max I ended up having one backwards and one forwards and when I rechecked the manual it was quite clear to make them tilt forwards at the top. "Ensure the log clamp tilts towards the log when clamping. If it tilts away from the log, remove the log clamp from the receiver, loosen the T-bolt, reverse the receiver on the shaft by rotating it 180°, and retighten the T-bolt. Insert the log clamp back into the receiver." Page 34 of my manual. :) There is a nice photo there that details what I mean better. Happy milling!

You are right. I checked my manual, page 27 for me, and it says they should tilt forward. Somehow I had it in my head that it said the opposite. Thanks for catching that, and thanks for watching.

I made the same mistake myself! Took me a year to get it right.

@@mylifedeliberately you’re welcome! Not a huge deal but they clamp more securely that way for sure. Cheers!

I liked your video. good job with the mill.

Great video! Thanks for taking us along.

[@mylifedeliberately]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching

Good one! Those PVC tubes work great. Using the battery grinder to only clear off debris on cut line saves time too. Thanks!

Thanks for watching!

[@robertlord7911]

Meant to ask... what disk are you using on grinder?

[@mylifedeliberately]

It is actually like a chainsaw blade. It is an attachment usually used to carve wood. Here is a link to a video where I explain it and show what it looks like. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oprSo32DepmegLc

Does that have an automatic up-and-down on that Mill I like that I wonder if they sell one for mine I got HM126 Have a good day of my friend

[@mylifedeliberately]

It does have an automatic up and down, very accurate and adjustable to 1/16 inch increments. They do sell a version for the HM126, here is a liink to their page. store.epicsaw.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=6 Thanks for watching!

[@thompsoncrusher7840]

Great job!

[@mylifedeliberately]

Thanks!

[@robertlord7911]

That's great thank you... I actually already have one ! I'll give it a whirl.

[@mylifedeliberately]

👍 let me know what you think

[@gregrupar135]

I assume the grinding is to take dirt and crap off the bark to extend blade longevity

[@mylifedeliberately]

You are correct. There is actually a chainsaw type blade on the grinder. Here is a link to the video where I explain it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oprSo32DepmegLc Thanks for watching.

Depending on where you live it could take longer than that to drive to the big box store and back. Good job

[@mylifedeliberately]

Thanks!
