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

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

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.

It took me a while to figure out how the boards where cut to length. Notice the saw that travels up and down. Don't need 40 foot boards, but, need 40 ft squares. First time I have saw this.

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.

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.
