Sawing 40 ft Pine Log Into a 12 x 12 Timber With 66” Solid Tooth Saw #17

[@roderickmatheson2770]

I worked at a Sawmill some 50 years ago when I was 20 years old, this brings back lots of memories .

[@herbbenson6884]

Like three of my fingers and part of my foot. Naw just kidding. Looks dangerous. Good video. Thanks!

[@realrural7876]

I worked in a sawmill on 3rd shift as an electrician while going to school during the day to get my associate degree in electrical technology. I started two months after I turned 19. That was some great head-rig footage. It brings back memories.

no idea why i love watching the saw cut these boards but it gives me wood.

The precision and skill required for logging like this is impressive. It takes years of experience to do it right!

[@dougsmith548]

My goodness, those are the longest logs I have ever seen horizontal. I’m seeing a few trees that tall, but I’ve never seen a log on a sawmill that long, and I watch all the sawmilling videos I can find. Take care God bless.✌️🇨🇦

Hull Oakes Lumber Co. runs a steam powered mill in Dawson, OR. They saw the BIG log that the 2x4 mills can't handle. Lots of long and big beams. kzbin.info/aero/PL2deVLDq3XCOp1GyG5CluFwkPVztWA7kE

[@realprogamer]

[@richardbritton5280]

[@arkansas1336]

Awesome! Need more.

[@SolidToothSawmill]

Thank you 👍🏻

[@JamesSimmons-pz7wn]

Nice sawmill setup

[@SolidToothSawmill]

@@JamesSimmons-pz7wn thank you 👍🏻

[@johnmcgarvie4061]

I like how u load the carriage with the log turner. Being an old time sawmiller I still refer to it using the N-word but only to myself. In the early 70's the mill I worked at had a steam powered carriage and log turner.

[@JohnNaturkach]

Ha ha, I still use the n word when talking about the “turning “ with other sawmill people, otherwise they wouldn’t know what I was talking about.

Wow, pretty sad you are so proudly racist. You're probably inbred too.

giant wooden trunks. Used to make beautiful tables and chairs❤

[@dougalexander7204]

Fascinating. How were the planks cut in thirds as they were rip sawn.

[@SolidToothSawmill]

@@dougalexander7204 we use a pop up saw

[@fricknjeep]

hi there that was interesting , john

[@SolidToothSawmill]

@@fricknjeep thank you! Thanks for watching!

[@rogerhodges7656]

Impressive! This is the first video of yours that I have seen. I would love to see footage that shows the operation of the cross cut saw a little more clearly. Who is the user or end consumer of 40' 12 x 12's?

[@philipinchina]

That's quite a stick.

[@JohnNaturkach]

Don’t know why they just didn’t cut the log in three pieces to begin with?

[@SolidToothSawmill]

@@JohnNaturkach we get a lot more money for 40 ft Timbers then we do for 12 ft Timbers

[@JohnNaturkach]

@@SolidToothSawmill sorry buddy, I guess I didn’t watch the video til the end. My bad. I was thinking that people now use laminated timbers nowadays because of less warping and much stronger. But I get your point. 👍😉

[@siding8]

You need to reposition your camera

[@rat8356]

why does it look like the saw is smoking?

[@SolidToothSawmill]

It’s water 👍🏻

[@rossmorrow3013]

I maybe old fashioned, but I sincerely hope that the operator here has some sort of hearing protection!

[@SolidToothSawmill]

We do lol 👍🏻 Thanks for watching!

[@anthonygnewbreast1609]

Sound like your a democratic

[@philipblick8887]

I think most people with an interest in machines would far prefer to hear them in operation- instead of dumb garbage music….

[@frankanddanasnyder3272]

Lot of butt end wasted timber cutting logs that long..

[@SolidToothSawmill]

@@frankanddanasnyder3272 they were turned into chips. Not wasted
