My Next Project Begins | Successful Bow Hunt, Milling Oak Boards and Pine Timbers

...at the expense of nature. The world have so many, too many smog-and garbage filled cities! What we need is to preserve what is left of our flora and fauna. Destruction of a patch of these, -just for the satisfaction of just one individual, I believe, is simply just selfish. Just thinking aloud. -G'day mates...

[@Frankypik]

@@gavesbuds5934 Another neurotic environmentalist. “To the detriment of nature” what not to read. Man has been cutting wood for building, for heating...for thousands of years. So I'm counting on you this winter to run around your table just to stay warm, because fuel oil pollutes and you wouldn't have the audacity to burn wood after your stupid comment!

She have the perfect camouflage in that tree stand. Congratulations for your hunt. Hunting deer with a traditional bow, in my book it means that you are a good hunter. Thanks for sharing your hunt with us.

The guys from Simple Living Alaska built a beautiful Mill shelter . Does the job a treat.

[@stephenabril7084]

That mill has really been a constant blessing for your place.

[@BerndtNorten]

Yeah. A machine he used money to buy is a “blessing.”

Never run out of meat that is for certain, even Cali can vouch for that as she gnawed on bones whilst trying to hide them. Cheers Shawn.

The construction is always my favourite part of your videos. And , hey, someone shoukd invent a giant funnel for pouring cement into small spaces. Or how about a wheel barrel with a pointed extension for the same thing? Just spitballin’.

Well done, Shawn. Great to see your wife shooting arrows and in your videos!

[@shellmaker10]

Love these videos with traditional archery.

[@jlooseround]

Excellent as always. I thought i heard you say 6x6 for posts. I have found on my builds a 4x6 for a non load post works as good and saves 2". Doesn't sound like much but on the smaller logs I mill, it can make the difference between 1 post or 2. Keep up the good work

[@justsaynrush9689]

If you had to do over would you go with the self propelled mill. Lucky man to have a wife that will hunt with you. We love seeing Cali the more the better. We have had 12 labs over our 44 years and lost the last one 2 years ago. Miss them greatly but the older we get the more the losses hurt. Good luck and stay safe. From Idaho

[@TimmyHill-bv3iv]

Shawn I like how you tolerate the cool weather with your shirt off .. But you probably hot from working so much 👍👍

Put a counter weight on the 3 point hitch or load the rear tires with calcium and add wheel weights to the rims

[@MoondyneJoe]

Shawn, a thought for you, is there anyway you can hook up a 12v car alternator to your mill so when it is running you can charge up some 12v agm batteries for use around the home, may as well utilise the machine in as many ways as you can Tony from Rural Western Australia 🇦🇺 🦘

[@lindapetersen1800]

SHAWN & OUR CALI & MISSES there !!! Glad you got the DEER ONE there that was Great !!! Am thinking maybe jerky for some of the deer meat Shawn !!! I take Jerky and cut it up into pieces with potatoes & carrots for stew meat or even soups with deer broth for it !!! If Misses likes wine that is a plus in the stew or soup also it gives it a different but great taste !!!

Remember when this was more of a building channel? I loved watching all the cabin projects and the craftsmanship that went into them. Still enjoy some of the content, but I have to admit, I don’t care for the hunting content as much. Really miss the focus on building and self-reliance projects!

[@stephboeker7835]

I love watching your mill work w/lumber mill !! I have logs milled from time to time but around here & as few & far between logs I need milled, it's hard to find a steady mill guy that stays in business. Strange but true. Anyway, I want 1" & 2" finished dried product to work w/. But, have to ask for 5/4 & 9/4 to get that after stickering & drying time. I understand by the time you mill your logs they've been drying for quite some time already. How do you choose the thickness of your 1" & 2" boards for instance ?? Will hey dry after milling before you use them ?? Will you use them and let them dry on the project over time, taking into consideration the shrinkage over time like you did w/the adjustable porch logs on those metal screw feet ?? Thank you for your generous consideration, Sincerely ........................... God Bless.
