In the olden days the grain mill was most often the “Heart” of a community. Here at Metcalf Mills our goal is not only the preservation and education of the grain milling process, but also to help provide a service and products that help make good, healthy, fresh milled goods more available to individuals and communities. And hopefully bring back some of that “Heart” and maybe a little more Love.

THANKS for this video Justro. I have my grandfather's 22" sears and roebuck mill that was manufactured by Meadows. Pap told me the millers measure (payment) was a peck per bushel. Love your channel.

Bear makes a great part of the clean up crew! Very very amazing Justin. ❤️

[@metcalfmills5679]

He sure does! Thank you

[@ronmack1767]

Enjoyed the video Justro. You have the patiences of Job. I couldn't do it. That is a lost art for sure. Bear was sure enjoying him some meal. That is interesting the New South Mill was made in Winston Salem. Thats just 45 minutes from me and that other mill you have shown in the past was made in Ronda, just 10 minutes away and Meadows Mill is 30 minutes away. Thanks for the video. You take care and God bless,

[@metcalfmills5679]

Thank you for sharing. Glad you enjoyed. God bless you as well Ron, thank you

[@uncledanny7]

Have you ever just set back and thought about what somebody was thinking thousands of years ago when they came up with the idea of using 2 rocks to grind grain up to eat. It’s amazing to me how most inventions come from everyday use. Looks like the boss was keeping you on your toes and hear really seemed to like the cornmeal lol

[@metcalfmills5679]

Yes I sure have. It is amazing to think about how it all progressed. Ha ha! Right on both counts! Thanks Danny

[@dw6090]

Very nice my great grandfather worked on water mill , not shore if only did carpenter work only or worked with stones as well,

[@metcalfmills5679]

That is good history to know. Thank you for sharing it

[@donp5774]

Nice work! How about that, my first experience with a Meadows mill was a sawmill, and here New South came from JA Vance, I've run several of their woodworking machines. Turning raw material into something everyone can use must be what gets in our blood, and in our pockets and boots.

[@metcalfmills5679]

Thank you for sharing! For sure

[@allonesame6467]

@12:30 Bear liked the corn flour just fine! Thanks for sharing your creative process!

[@metcalfmills5679]

He sure did. Glad you enjoyed

[@DustySplinters]

So sweet when you knock back those high spots and get the stones properly mated to each other. How many years can a dressing last?

[@metcalfmills5679]

It depends on many variables. Some need dressed once a month, some once a year, it all depends. Thank you!

[@thenewyorkredneck4735]

We were just on my property looking at the stream and talking about how I need To hire you to build our community one of those amazing water wheels so we can mill fresh daily

[@metcalfmills5679]

Thanks for the thoughts. It will get in your blood

[@thenewyorkredneck4735]

@@metcalfmills5679 building community and prayer is the best thing I have ever done. Got a long ways to keep going

[@tammy5590]

How often do the stones have to be dressed to maintain a good working order? That is so awesome. Bear dog is like heck yeah and good snack.

[@metcalfmills5679]

There are a lot of variables. Once a month or once a year, it all depends. He loves it! 😆

[@jerryhuntjj2885]

Wish I could find a mill like that to buy for grinding grain in my community. The closest mill is over 2 hrs away

[@metcalfmills5679]

Email me. [e-mail]

[@sandrahouse9322]

Fascinating. After dressing the stones several times do you have to deepen the groves? How long from start to finish did this take.?

[@metcalfmills5679]

Yes the grooves have to be deepened from time to time. I will have more on that in the future. It can take from 1-3 days, depending on how bad they have been neglected. This one took 2 days.

[@robertlusnia506]

Enjoyed your video, alway wonder how you dressed the stone

[@metcalfmills5679]

Thank you

[@minielektricar247]

after how many years it has to be dressed again

[@pyburn1212]

Awesome videos!! What can you tell me about vessot mills and WR & Davies fanning mills

[@metcalfmills5679]

Never heard of them. Thank you for your compliments!

[@pyburn1212]

Very little info about them

[@bigcountry1009]

Justro do you ever make the grooves deeper? If so, what tools are used?

[@metcalfmills5679]

Yes, if they need it. I will have more details on that in a future video. I use the same hammers accordingly. Thank you!

[@МистерМеханик-з9п]

Отверстие тоже так выдалбливали? Или сверлили както

Are you still planning on making community mills?

I am building mills, my hope is that they go to communities. Thank you
