It's amazing what a good saw can accomplish. That's a lot of nice lumber to work with.

[@louisvanoudtshoorn5350]

What a beautiful setting, you guys are so lucky to live in that part of the world. Thanks for the videos Cody , so look forward to it.

[@brianquillen8702]

Cody I live in an Apartment in a Suburb of Ohio and Sir I've really loved watching these videos from beginning to this one regarding you helping your neighbor with his Trees and especially the Milling Process of the Trees, I really have, it's fascinating to see how you gentlemen have Milled those Trees like that, again this is from a guy who's never experienced ANYTHING like that before, my background was in Law Enforcement with the City I live in as a Policeman, so seeing you do this is well again fun to watch and fascinating to me. Thank you again for another great video on this Subject. I look forward to the NEXT great Adventure Sir.

[@jclaydon3454]

Nice woodshed! It's also wonderful to see friendship working...

[@Dream4Design]

Nice work guys, I saw everything what I need to know about your work! Last Sunday I sawmill alone three large pine logs, and now I see blade sawmill benefits better.

[@montycantsin8861]

Videos like this practically hypnotize me. Cool tools, good teamwork, making valuable things from the land. It geeks me right out.

[@Bodgemiester]

Ditto, I’m working on getting there

[@anthonyrobinson6448]

Great video, thank you. As a newbie, I learned a lot especially seeing the smart way you moved the log and rolled it! Thanks again!

[@ThePantyVigilante]

Great Music, Great Editing, and Great Cuts

i like seeing the lumber cutting for some reason its kinda satisfying can't wait till winter to see the shop work

[@chrisspence3216]

Love this stuff your living the dream Wranglerstar Family keep up the good work !!

[@btrnsfrmr]

Faithful are the wounds of a friend... {insert sigh} as much as I have watched you emphasize safety to your son and your viewers, my kids who help me on our micro-homestead just watched you 'ride the log's.' I have on past occasion told them no to such activity because of the potential dangers involved . I am now explaining that just because Mr. W. is a professional with years of experience teaching young men the importance of strict adherence to safety, that doesn't mean he is perfect and that we should now pray without ceasing for God's mercy for him and the rest of his viewers many of which watch his video's as part of a homeschool discipline . 10 of these homeschoolers are my children as well as other children whos families are in our circle of influence. Well... I have ridden this log long enough , I am still a loyal fan, and just cuz mama burned the biscuits dont mean I stop eating.

[@Fattigbrukarn]

Haha! Husqvarna is a place in Sweden. 70 km from my place. South of Sweden. Great video as always cody!👍😁

[@carlzirk]

Cody's a work horse - putting out a lot of good quality videos.

[@BloodSprite-tan]

cody could make anything and we'd probably consider it good quality.

What a beautiful property that is. I hope you managed to relax on the porch for a bit

[@brianb6603]

Excellent as usual!!! Love the sawmill videos!

[@jaredboyd4578]

Very entertaining video. Thank you, Cody

[@leederdavid4782]

Cody, I know you love that Lucas mill, but it would drive me nuts! We just milled 76 logs in three days on a Woodmizer - about the same size as the ones you're working through, mixed posts, beams, dimensional lumber and inch board. We did, however, have the advantage of three guys and two tractors to load logs and cart material away. Enjoyed the video and seeing how other machines work. Thanks!

[@brokenujoints3811]

I used to mill 7 to 10 logs every evening after work, with my son and wife on our 827 Lucas we got 13 years back. You can make a lot of lumber in a few hours. I just roll them into 3 notched 8 x 8' s ( slight downhill on the outside bearers, and a pry bar up to about 24 inches. Over that, I'll raise the mill and carry in on the forks) the middle one for a wedge to support the center over 10 feet, rail tracks set at 17 feet so I can roll in 16's, they drop in, wedge it with some pine, line up the head to optimize and cut. Plus, I've done 50 inch oak...took lumber off the top, flipped on the forks, machined the bearers, set the flat side down. took lumber off the other side and wound up with a 6 inch thick bar top 16 feet long for my neighbor. Local band mills wouldn't touch it as it was over 36 wide. Took about 4 hours. Blew his mind. made many bar tops like this, trimming both side or leaving bark. Skim it with the blade and it looks milled. Took 6 guys to lift it onto his horses for drying. Plus I have the 'weatherboard' beveled siding attachment and the slabber. Many homes and garages around here have our beveled siding. Finally put it on our house as it's really nice. The blade can be angled and you get tapered pieces every cut cycle.. Super fast...love cutting it.. Closed the business a few years ago when my son got married. I just mill for fun now, or stuff the local band mills can't do. Or my son in law..8 x 8 x 16 wet hemlock yesterday...HEAVY!!! A swingblade (Peterson is thier main competitor) is more of a planer mill than a saw, and the Peterson can cut 8 x 16 easy. I removed a guard so I can cut 2 1/4 x 16 after leveling the blade, and cutting on the other side on the way back. Learned a lot over the years. 2 x 12's are easy. With a nice young feller to pick them off the log!!!

[@upward_onward]

In 30 years time I'll too enjoy this pleasure in my back yard.

It's interesting that in the beginning of this series Eric was new at it and out of his element, now he is sure of what he is doing with confidence. Nice job gents

[@martblart285]

Its very cool how you put it up. And loud!

[@KoalityofLife]

Thanks for the tip on canting the log around with the block of wood. I often have to work at lining up my bigger logs with my sawmill, kinda a pain sometimes. This tip will come in handy. :)

[@ScotWalt858]

Most enjoyable. Thanks!

[@gerardosegundo6068]

This is cool how we can see how 2x4 is made and cut

[@clamum]

Very cool video, Cody, thanks. Makes me kinda wish I did the whole homestead thing too. It's a lotta work, I'm certain, but it seems like it would be fulfilling too.

[@justinbussell7637]

Thats is an impressive woodshed!

[@eddeetz493]

Here comes the new deck one board at a time. Heck of a way to help a neighbor solve tree problems, leave firewood and sawdust for the gardens and animal bedding for rich compost. No heavy equipment says how great the Lucas design performs. Thank you.

[@johnmontague69]

There's something therapeutic about watching log videos. Good Job Cody and Eric. Not afraid to put a bit of sweat into it. Cody with the amount of logs you get offered and all shapes and sizes too, do you think you'll ever put a log cabin on your property? ☺

[@jonathanallen3833]

Get it! Dang that must be really satisfying to the soul.

[@andrewwaterman9240]

You've got a trailer load of freshly-sawn lumber and, presumably, all your fingers and limbs. What a delightful, delightful machine! Also, you both set up your shots and edited this video very nicely. Well done, Cody.

At first I thought the video thumbnail was of PANCAKES and got really excited... Lumber milling is good too. I'll be right back to watch the rest of the video, now I have to go make pancakes first.

[@duck-ng1xm]

How did you get pancakes from the thumbnail?

lovely stuff.

Just curious, is creosote an issue burning these softwoods? In New England, where hardwoods are abundant, softwoods are predominantly used for outdoor campfires and the hardwoods are burned indoors.

[@scootermcgooginhime2464]

Man i gotta say uhh ou have yhe beat taste in music!! This is one of my top ten favorites

[@shaolindreams]

Trees are so awesome... and so is that sawmill :)

[@skillage18]

I like smaller saws now like the one you took the branch stumps off the tree with. My dad has/had an old Husqvarna but the crank and piston died in it. And I have also an older model stihl. Both saws are one of the larger models. I jsut bought a new Ms170 from stihl at a flee market. I use that thing for everything. So much lighter and convenient.

[@xback40verland38]

Loving that intro music.!!

[@jamieayy260]

WRANGLESTAR..... I've watched nearly all your KZbin videos you are an extremely amazing person!!! Such an inspiration. Please keep it up what a legend!!!! Jamie, Australia 🇦🇺

[@Scotland1766]

Some nice timber. Lucas is a superb machine. I believe you are supposed to press the lock lever when winding up also. Not just wind it up at the start as you did. Wears the mechanism out and should be in your manual. Also wide horizontal cuts 8", are better done in two passes, stops the blade getting packed with sawdust and rising up. Some great scenery and good video.

[@Hato6]

Next video in Swedish!! Husqvarna is the town in sweden where the company was started!

[@martyd4619]

Yes, in the swedish parish (landskap) of Småland (

[@adask330]

But it's correct it means " the house where the mill is"

[@ianmacfarlane1241]

@toulouse666 That's hardly surprising as there are at least 420 million people in the World who speak Arabic as their first language, making it the sixth most popular language in the World. Sweden has a population of 9.9 million people - the vast majority of them are fluent in English, so it's not difficult to imagine that you're far, far more likely to hear someone speaking Arabic anywhere in the World, (outside of Sweden) . Although Sweden has it's own significant issues with immigration, so who knows what the current situation is in Sweden.

[@epeome5]

Well, not really... The name Husqvarna (witch is an old spelling of the town Huskvarna) comes from the Mill that stood near the river Husån or Huskvarnaån. the river was before called Humlarumlaån, which got its name from the nearby castle Rumlaborgs Hus. The mill was called "Huskvarnen", the "a" in Huskvarna is dialectal, they pronounced it as "Huskvarna". And if you want to say "the house where the mill is" you would probably say "kvarnhus" instead of "huskvarn".

[@Weirdyzz]

”Hus” means house and ”kvarn” means Mill. But Husqvarna is the name of an area/region/village/city It was spelled with an q until the early 1900s, but today is spelled Huskvarna

[@esraelemiru7900]

Amazing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@WILSON.1]

Great video.

[@robinlilja744]

Huskvarna is the name of a Swedish city, which the company Jönköping-Faktori (Husqvarna) moved to during 1650-1700, to be able to take advantage of water-power. It was later renamed Husqvarna.

[@McAVITYourWay.]

Thank you for another interesting video Cody, I really have no need for a sawmill, but if I did, I think I would prefer this over a band saw :)

[@jeznashalie]

Hi great video as always but why don’t you use a pencil on the end of the log to figure out what you can get from it before you start cutting

[@Xander_Zimmermann]

I like that style of saw mill.

[@goodtimeclub]

One can only imagine how good it must smell working on that mill .

[@redeemhoodlum777]

Thank you for sharing. I have 4 reloaded trees that I cut down and I saved 24 feet logs about 36 inches in diameter. What would you recommend will be the best strategy to mill my logs? Never done it before. Planning on buying a nit so expensive sawmill for the job.

[@jnsdroid]

I just had one of those Ah-ha moments at 5:37 I always wondered why the gas station firewood was chopped into such thin planks ... it's probably all lumber off-cuts

[@beebob1279]

A lot of mills will sell that stuff. They end up with piles of it.

[@larrymiller6285]

Lol the kids always have to try to ride the log,used to do it when I was a kid lol

[@joshd8654]

What made you choose this type of mill? I've been looking at getting a bandsaw mill

[@somerfordparkfarm1265]

How big a log can the Lucas mill cut in half ? ... in either one cut or two. Thanks looks a heck of a piece of kit !

[@xADDxDaDealer]

Did you cut these to rough cut dimensions? Will you plane them down to the standard dimensions? Or do you just leave them as is?

[@ericcote132]

Hello Cody. I noticed that you saw a lot of 4x6.. what is a typical usage of those? Thanks

That was satisfying.

[@MDmountain505]

Have you considered kiln drying? I know some youtubers take personally cut loads to be dried and it’s pretty reasonably priced. I guess there’s no reason to if you aren’t in a rush though.

[@sudo_nym]

Love the vizsla.

[@hamishdunbar5836]

Hi Just a question How come you do more than one pass per cut ? Is the blade not big enough or is that the way you are ment to do it ?

[@JerkRice]

It is fun to watch the Lucas Mill in operation. Are you still as pleased with it as you were when you first got it?

[@JahaJaho]

Hi, I have two questions for you and a clarification about Husqvarna. The questions are. How come you could not saw a bord at the bottom of the log. Is it too wobbly when it is soo little wood left or did you lay it on to low support beams? Don't you feel it is a bit unsafe to walk so close to a live cutting blade walking over beams on the ground? Have you thought about adding some kind in push rod to get you a bit away from it? And about Husqvarna. As your friend said in the movie the name is made up of two parts. Hus is not from the modern word for House. Hus here stems from the middle age term Keep or Castle. Qvarna that is the word for grain mill. So that is the history behind the towns name. Later the water flow was used to setup the industry that took on the name Husqvarna we know today.

[@robm.6400]

Husqvarna is a small town in Sweden south of the Vättern. The company was started there and still is located there as far as I know.

[@iliketobuildstuff7013]

great video! i just finished a side job im doing between classes at uni, got a Husqvarna 445 with a 20in bar and im cutting up a 5ft diameter maple. I wish i had a portable sawmill to slab it, its some really beautiful wood. But i dont have the money or equiptment to make it work right now so i guess it will be firewood :/

[@iliketobuildstuff7013]

also LOVE the saw, i got it used the other day and I am confident it is the best purchase I have ever made
