Black Walnut ALL DAY

[@marknunya3035]

Once again Chuck n Deb YOU'VE helped ME relax. My sister passed 2 days ago watching y'all work the mill makes me calmer. I amm a disabled veteran w severe PTSD. Thanks for calming ME. Don't forget to deb gets a foot rub and Chuck gets a back rub lol. God bless Iron Oak.

[@IronOakSawmill]

Once again Mark, you helped make this possible. You insure our freedoms to do so. I'm sorry about your sisters passing. Its never easy when you lose a loved one. We are glad that our videos help bring you some piece of mind. We will continue to make videos, as long as you promise to keep watching. Thank you Mark. Its the least we can do.

After pausing video, just finished watching the second half of video. Much respect for Deb at the controls! Team work!

[@IronOakSawmill]

She is getting the hang of it. More time will have her flying through the logs.

[@annoynmousk]

Love the voice of the guy talking, he sounds like a Golf commentator😊relaxing, Beautiful wood,

[@IronOakSawmill]

Thank you. As long as I don't put folks to sleep. 😆

[@shortstoriesbyjerry870]

I admire your ability to deliver that much information and spoken so consistently and easy to follow. Wish I had that ability to speak quickly and intelligently. Good job. Very interesting. My Grandfather Sprinkle worked and lived and was born in Birdseye, Ind. and made his living in the woods. He would go into a woods and tell the potential buyer how much lumber was there.

[@IronOakSawmill]

I just watch and learn from so many others. Plus go from my own experiences. Once you have the knowledge, its easy to speak clearly on the matter. Sounds like your grandfather was a good forester. Someone you want on your side bothe when selling and buying standing timber.

[@barrywest3758]

Totally awesome slabs guys and no metal. That was a huge job and I loved all the camera angles too! That blade was slicing right thru with no problems. Deb, good job behind the wheel, watch out Chuck LOL . Thanks, I really enjoyed it. Take care out there.👍👍 Oh, beautiful day and you guys made my Friday evening.

[@IronOakSawmill]

I was amazed there was no metal, considering where these were located. The LT35, and the 7° turbos were getting it done. We are really trying our best with the cameras. Our videos are long, but we like to keep as much mill time in as we can. Need to work on some editing skills though. LOL Deb was doing great. A lot less coaching. Maybe talk her through a whole log in coming videos. Let her do the whole job.

[@debfromthemill6945]

Hi Barry. Yes chuck is doing and awesome job with the cameras anymore. I like to take control of the mill every now and then. Glad to hear that we made your Friday evening. Thanks for watching as always and take care Barry.

I know you don't need another comment on this video, but I really enjoyed you working a small log on that mill, what an awesome site to see. I plan to do the same soon. Waiting on mine to get here, but its a small mill. Thanks again for sharing and keep up the fun videos. New sub as well. Dale

[@IronOakSawmill]

No problem. Comment anywhere you want. We wanted to salvage a such of the 2 trees this guy had. He knew the value of what we were cutting, and he wanted to salvage all he could. You're gonna love the mill. Short logs can be a pain, but are worth it when it comes to some pieces.

Appreciate the pre milling video, the stuff you have found that you need to carry.. I appreciate it as I have just bought my first mill, I bought a woodland mills 130 max.. for my beginning then plan to buy a Wood-Mizer once i educate myself in the milling processes

[@IronOakSawmill]

As long as you are cutting lumber, and having fun. Thats what matters most. Be safe, and learn your mill. Ask questions of those who know. There are many around who love to help out. Let me know how you are doing with the mill.

Another awesome job. That was some nice wood!

[@IronOakSawmill]

Thank you Comp. This was another fun mill job. Plenty of help, and good tempuratures, to go with the awesome lumber we were milling.

A great days work there Chuck and Deb. The mill looked like it was cutting like a dream. I’m sure the customer is delighted with the results. Enjoyed the different camera angles and Deb looked really professional handling the mill. Take care and stay safe guys. Stan

[@IronOakSawmill]

Hello Stan. We had a good time milling these beauties. I'm still trying to better the camera work, and editing. Sounds like we are headed in the right direction. Deb is gaining more and more confidence when she runs the mill. You take care as well Stan. Its good to hear from you.

I completely agree with you James.

[@d11rdozer]

That pile of sawdust at the end of the day was impressive. Looked to be the equivalent volume of one of the logs.

[@IronOakSawmill]

It was a lot of cutting, yet still less waste that a thick kerf circle mill would have. Should make some food mulch for someone.

[@buggsy5]

If you number the slabs as you cut them, it is easier to do book matching. It eliminates the chance of getting them mixed up.

[@IronOakSawmill]

Very true. The client was re-stacking them in the order they were cut. At least that's what he said.

[@jerrylittle8922]

Look forward to seeing the Hickory Sawn. I actually have a Butt cut Hickory to mill with ddbl heart. 👍

[@stevenkoya5236]

The work on the black walnut looks awesome: weather, machine, teamwork, environment. How long does the blade last before a replacement? Watching from Papua New Guinea(PNG). Thanks for the vedio.

[@IronOakSawmill]

The walnut is a beautiful wood. One of our favorites here in the states. We work together, to reach our goals. It gives a great sense of accomplishment. We enjoy sharing the videos. It depends on what type of wood you are cutting to how long a blade lasts. Typically about 300 to 500 board feet of lumber. They can be resharpened, and work very well.

[@richarddunn7040]

Fantastic 😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@IronOakSawmill]

Thank you Richard.

[@stukaman1162]

As much as I enjoy watching that Wood Mizer do its thing, I would really like to see what happens to all the finished slab wood you create with it - does it go to craftsmen who turn it all into killer dining or coffee tables, or other kinds of furniture? Perhaps you could expand your present platform to include those who buy wood straight from your mill and follow what they do next to add additional value. Everyone's looking for a unique hook to get more viewers in an already crowded sea of sawmill operators who gab and slab on YT - developing video partnerships with those who take what you create and turn it into functional accessories or works of art just might be the ticket.

[@IronOakSawmill]

We currently post customer creations on our FB page. Just still shots though. Maybe a compilation video of some of those photos would be a good start. Tough to keep track of so many people, and their projects, but it could be done.

[@stukaman1162]

@@IronOakSawmill I didn't mean this as a criticism, but thought it might be a way of expanding your viewership and recognize those who relieve you of all them slabs you cut and turn them into nice things. i wish you well, IOS.

[@MrThenry1988]

Looking good. Looks also like a long day. Do you charge by the hour?

[@IronOakSawmill]

Hello Tim, and welcome. It's always a good day though, when you're milling black walnut. We charge by the board foot. We can calculate it before hand, and give a quote. We add a little on for delivery and set up of the mill, and if we hit metal, or something else in the log. People are surprised how little it costs them to have their logs milled into lumber.

[@sameemsyed3283]

Very nice

[@IronOakSawmill]

[@hughgriffiths5837]

Nice stuff Chuck and Deb! Short logs with a hydraulic mill are a challenge indeed. What degree blade were you running? For what it’s worth, I love seeing the slabs wet down. The above complaints about waisting their time cracks me up - don’t watch it then lol 😂 Keep up the good work 👍🏼 ***Edit - just caught you stating 7° Turbos 👍🏼

[@IronOakSawmill]

The struggle is real with the short logs. LOL I would have answered your blade question anyway. That's just how we are. The majority wants to see the water splash, so, water splash it is. Thank you Hugh. Good to hear from you again.

I am having trouble getting hold of woodmeister and to be honest I don't want a sales pitch I'd rather talk to somebody who owns one what is the difference between a 15 and a 35

Hello Lyle, and thank you for your question. You are in luck. We have some videos of us running our LT15 and of course, our lt35. Just look back in our video list, and you can watch us running the LT15, and see there are HUGE differences. You can also visit their web site, go to their "Configurator", where you can build and price a machine with whatever option you want. I hope this helps. If not, let me know what else I can help with.
