Sawing a Big Ole Pine

[@waynetharp]

1x20s now available only at McCoys sawmill !😮 That was a beast of a log and it sounded heavy, when it thumped being rolled. I thought the log roller was gonna make (2) 5 footers out of it for a minute there. No matter who's name is on the paperwork. It takes a Team to make the mill run smooth and you have the best one out there. The feller I sell logs to for pallet material can handle 36" logs but draws the line at 31". I sure see now...Why he doesn't want anything bigger! I don't know what warms me the most? Seeing the sunshine, the fact Paul is doing well and happy, or hearing you in such good spirits! Thanks for another great video. Have a Great Day!😀

[@davidgordy3358]

Forever Missed! RIP

[@mmccoy577]

You got that right 🙏🏻

[@oldschool6345]

Yard full of logs like that makes a checkbook healthy! Love the tough woman- make sure she got it if there was breakup. Tough women can be hard to live with but they're easy to love. Thanks for sharing

[@DarrelCarson]

I love watching you saw logs. My mill is Wood-Mizer, but I still have to turn the logs. I like to sit back and guess when you are going to turn the logs based on what I know about sawing. On this big beautiful pine, my guess was only off one time and that time you made one more cut. This is a real nice setup you've got. Hey you'll have a great day.

[@dancrafton89]

Great video Mike. That was a nice log. God bless you'll.

[@michellehoefer5922]

Thank you for the video. I like seeing how you-all manage the big logs. Don't understand how you keep from pushing the carriage off the rails with the log turner. I'm glad that Paul is Helping Mrs. Mccoy off-bear.I'm glad that your feeling good.Have the best day ever and don't drown!

[@wheezyjefferson9136]

I could watch this for hours. Glad you, Mother, and Paul are feeling froggy enough this morning to battle that giant log.

[@daveguffey9024]

I remember when we used to saw reject veneer logs...crawling up on the carriage to cut the boards off with a chainsaw. Then the company bought a vertical edger...what a difference!! Watching your videos brings back memories for me. I can almost smell the oak and cherry that we sawed all the time. Remember how my hands would stain black from handling the lumber. Great job...keep up the great videos.

[@williamjohn8404]

Best video yet,well done all of you.Thanks a lot.

[@robertkennedy3632]

Wow that is a biggen, it's a good thing you've got lots of patients. Love when those wide pieces come off the saw. Be safe see you soon Rob

[@leesteele9290]

I don't know what's so satisfying about watching someone who knows their machine operate it and can just tell they're happy with the way things are going . glad you're feeling good

[@jamescarter7752]

Sure was some nice boards from that big log. I really enjoyed your video.

[@chuckstevenson2929]

Good Job Mike Mother and Paul. That log was a buster.

[@prattsgreenhousefarm9473]

That’s a swarper right there. Maxed the ol mill out. Would be easy to lay down a slab that would be hard to handle. Another good one guys!

[@dennis4251]

Not sure how I ended up here, but love your relationship with "mother". "If I didn't have her, I sure wouldn't want this thing". Great video!

[@DobleWhiteAndStanley]

As a guy that grew up in a city, I'm finding that I'm loving the outdoors and working with wood a lot more than in the city.

[@randyatwood621]

mr. mike hope everything is good i'm watching some of your older videos and hope to see ya soon my friend !!!!

[@digbyodell2924]

Spring is just around the next dozen snow storms up here in WI! Them big logs is difficult to manage for any use but they sure yield up a bunch of nice lumber when you can get at the cant.

[@kevintreadway5963]

Big logs are a little bit of a pain but the lumber is great. Good video Mike.

[@tomstone3973]

What a beautiful log.... great job Mr. Mike

[@zlindauer5315]

i ran a corly 6 ft band in front of a 6 ft linbar resaw, the largest cant i could send them was 24x24! crazy! every circle ive ran had a top saw, i guess i got spoiled. theres some thinkin involved with the single saw headrig! nice sawin sir, and have a great day!

[@huckmiller1971]

They always get bigger when they hit the carriage! Very nice log !

[@buillioncubes]

They get bigger when you're felling them, then they're smaller on the ground, then they're bigger when you're moving them, and then they get bigger on the mill! And then they get smaller and stay that way.

[@nuts319]

that is a true beauty mike!!!! this time last year i was cuttin load after load of them!! sure miss wood like that

[@ronlitz9055]

Loved every minute of this vid, thanks for taking the time. What I love about USA.

[@jacksanders7018]

I sure do miss seeing these, Thanks more than you know.

[@mmccoy577]

I’d give anything to have him back making videos again

[@PowellRoadDIY]

Awesome saw work Mike. True experience.

[@mrbakerskatz]

Thanks Mike ,it has been fun and I’m glad you feel good .

[@paulcasefarms9933]

''sure couldn't hire 3 men that could replace her" So true. Mother is quite a hard worker!

[@kenstaniforth7060]

Man you got that mill runnin smoooooth Mike !!

[@andymoss3132]

Tuff not being able to see below the tool shed. Hahaha. Enjoyed video mike

[@bigfoot-wo3qy]

We had a pto driven mill for years. Ran an 1850 Oliver on her when we got into some big stuff. 90ish hp. The old perkins would start to throw a 6 inch blue flame out the stack you knew you were making her grunt.

[@Mainer1945]

I enjoy listening to you gabbing.

[@fricknjeep]

hi again that was just nice . how many b/f you reckin you got out of it . we got 4 " snow so far up here in carrol , MD no sawing here so i watch yours . nice job john

[@stevebumstead9840]

That was a tough one. Nice job Mike!

[@gahillbilly6566]

Enjoy watching you cut big timber... but its hard on the equipment all the way around my friend

[@thomasboyles6943]

I have a mill just like that one from my grandfather. I want to get it back running

[@davidwikle8067]

Thanks for reshaping sure miss him

[@mmccoy577]

We all miss him 😢

[@billcoley8520]

I wish you would explain why you flip the log each time and what you are trying to achieve... I know it’s squaring it but what size boards are to trying to get out of the log... I hope this makes sense

[@mmccoy577]

It all depends on what size boards I am needing. One reason I turn the log more than it seems I need to is to make sure both faces of the log are the same.

[@michaelreynolds3398]

Yes sir that's a big ole pine there Mike and mother

[@bradley.missick5976]

Love it man

[@forrestanderson2652]

Mike, for those of us who are not " in the business" , can you explain sometime the widths you cut versus the finished thickness we get at the lumberyard, and the length of log you cut that works best for the mill.. ? As we say in South Texas.. " Gracias ".

[@mmccoy577]

I will do that in a future video

[@josephboley]

good morning Mike and Mother.

[@MultiNailbender]

That's is about as big as ya want to do ain't it mr. McCoy ? Was fun to watch , Thank ya , Joe

[@larrymbouche]

Yeah. What was that log? 28" diameter? Or a bit bigger? Nice straight and clear. Pretty.!!!!

[@papaw5405]

What kind of rails does your carriage run on? I have a piece of dinky track that I been cutting up and making little anvils out of. It stands 3 inches tall. It makes a pretty little anvil. The track looks just like yours on the screen.

[@mmccoy577]

I think mine is about a 3 inch rail.

[@Torsee]

Glad you got your log spinner fixed! But you missed an opportunity to use that gift you got.. the one made in Bangor Maine! Old school! 😂

[@Torsee]

Course you probably need two of em!

[@VideosByAl]

Wide Circular sawn pine boards are in high demand in our area. Too bad the buyers have to settle for wide band sawn pine from us.

[@thederrick1966]

big ole log .. nice video

[@RAZNVA]

[@huckmiller1971]

[@williamjacobs236]

Those boards would look good as a on a floor !

[@deerslayer5863]

Is that old corley carriage with hurdle log turner

[@mmccoy577]

Frick carriage Miner turner

[@troyskeese1503]

Mike if you could get the loggers to cut you some bark lees square trees sure would make sawing easier. Lol

[@zalmaflash]

Mother and you get an "ATTA BOY" for that one.

[@marciam6224]

What state are you in? The comment you made about all 4 seasons in a week happens here in Michigan. We are on a winter weather advisory right now until 10 am Thursday.

[@toddreynolds8875]

[@JohnWhite-si4xc]

I love to have them for my mill and saw out nice looking lumber anyway

[@franklinbrooks9506]

Tearing up a lot of lumber with that chain turner. You need a flipper.

[@DavidMiller-jc4pl]

Where are you guys?

[@dantco]

Yep! Them board feetses was just'a rolling off that log.

[@MissouriOldTimer]

is there not much call for those 20" or wider boards?

[@jamesspears5127]

I cut some two by twenty four by twelve feet for the bed of a trailer and we could not handle them ended up cutting them down to 2 by 12

[@alanmagee1207]

WHAT A GREAT LOG.

[@bobwoodhams7242]

Mike I watched that video 4 times that was a good one...……..I told my wife sawing some logs like that is better than sex....she hit me..lol that would be hard on a old hand set mill....you sounded like you were having a lot of fun..good for you and glad your feeling better

[@JerrysWoodShopandOutdoors]

Sure wish I had a saw mill..

[@fricknjeep]

[@mmccoy577]

Albert Einstein well doggies

[@gatorsworld]

That was a hog of a log....you made a lot of board feet out of that one Mike.....I guess that when you get the most satisfaction out of that mill you put together.....when it`s able to do big sawing like the little train that could....CHA-CHING all the way to the bank....very interesting one my friend.....CHEERS

[@anthonyjackson6522]

Sure enjoyed that

Hitting the governor! Making dust!

[@sighpocket5]

Nice!!!

[@viscache1]

Sawmills take less maintenance and are much less demanding than wives.... I’d keep the mill.

[@mmccoy577]

True but sawmills can’t cook

[@Pimpmedown]

@@mmccoy577 i am sure some smart guy can fix that

[@SkidderKev]

It's a bit crooked but that's ok I fixed it hahaha love it Mike!

[@mmccoy577]

Sure does

[@billcoley8520]

Mother thinks you are a idiot, I can see how she is jestering at you. Plus I always said who ever screws up fixes it BUT THAT BEAUTIFUL WOOD

[@davidhorsley1149]

The bible say's; "whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing". Sounds like you found a wife, not just any ole woman. You can find a woman anywhere, a "wife" is hard to find these days. That job of offbearer would give these young feminists a whole new perspective on life in this world. Probably similar to the one that neighbor got the one time he helped you.

[@brentfarrow8125]

If you keep chewing away at the center pretty soon you will cut it in half 😳
