sawing white spruce # 328

[@lewiemcneely9143]

I feel for ZZ and the nights. We always pulled 12's and from 7 till 7 was rough but we sure yanked knots in the asphalt running nights but I'm a day worker and never had a chance for evenings; always days or nights and nights were usually just building up stockpiles but we made up for it by loading and weighing ourselves. Lots of tonnage and I think we could pull 10 loads and still stop for 30 minutes. Days were maybe 8. So NICE sawing! My pal at his saw shop was getting 10 white pines taken down and my pal with the sawmill had a truck load of fresh logs so he'll be sawing too. Happy week and God Bless!

[@markgalicic7788]

nights are hard to do , we got two loads of new logs this week for a 16' 2x4 order.

Thanks Mark and Eddie. Looks like John is just about ready to cut some boards on the big Frick. 👍🎅🏻

That was great so see all that clean wood go through the mill. Beautiful job, as always. Appreciate all the time you guys put into creating these videos and educating us on how all this works. -Brandon

Another great video, fun to see the front end loader footage at the end. I look forward to when you start sawing that load of hardwoods you purchased a few months ago. Keep up the great work Mark and Eddie!

Please, let's get a new valve for the log turner!! Please!! If it ain't tight, it ain't right lol good video as usual guys, appreciate you taking the time to show us as you grow your business.

Enjoying your show! Really relaxes me and takes my mind off of everything! Thank you so much!

Greetings from Mönchengladbach Germany. The license plates are funny. I guess the spruce was a good day for you and the customer. The sawdust goes to the horses. My Heart jumps for joy. Best wishes to ZZ Mark. Nightshift in a weekly change to early or late shift are the pure poison. I have made it approximately one and a half year for the Netherlands PACCAR company DAF in the Engine and transmission Department. Shiftwork is hell and burns you out. I have not any difficulties to start work with the Rooster Yelling till sunset. But Shift? No way!

I just wanted to say thank you for being so informative in your videos. With your knowledge sharing I was able to get a job at a local sawmill in Virginia. On a side note I do what Eddie does and that job is no joke. It's hard work but it's fun. Again thank you both for being such awesome content creator's.

Thanks Joe , glad to here it helped you get a job in a sawmill!

[@scssarge4409]

Mark; Taper to logs was originally only designed for the straightening of log to the heart of the log in quarter sawn timbers as this minimised twisting and bowing, thus your not fully using taper to its correct purpose so then have waist when sawing. Am I correct or not, thus wait your reply or explanation so others can understand taper also. We used taper in quarter sawn timbers on a manual mill as it was easy to do to maximise linear board feet with minimum wastage because was always cutting from centre to outside of log where you are cutting from outside to centre. The system we used was to split the log in half over the cut down saw then once split then came to the table to be split into quarter and then quarter sawn into lumber feet of various diameters thus maximising linear feet. I know with your automated system it is hard to do what we did on manual saw mills. Keep up the good work guys.

Thanks, guys. At last you scored some nice logs, and got some nice lumber (!) as well. Cheers!

[@markgalicic7788]

we like fresh logs.

[@randallknowles9240]

Hey Mark and Eddie! I definitely share your excitement and enthusiasm for being able y to I saw some fresh cut logs for a change. You guys have definitely paid your dues with old logs over the past several months! Really enjoyed the beautiful hard maple log that you sawed last time. It is a shame that you couldn’t have cut the entire log into shop project material. The beautiful bright white boards would have made some outstanding butcher block counter tops! By-the-way, did that second oak log get struck by lightning? Thanks for another awesome sawing video and keep the fresh logs coming!!! Take care!

[@markgalicic7788]

thanks Randall , the second log had two hearts in it.

does wood from a green log warp more than wood from an aged log after milling?

Do you cut the lumber to length after sawing or sell it in what it came as. Great video as usual.

we cut the log to size for each order , we try to get logs 25' long for 8's & 12's & 16's , 21' for 10's

Marc on that first log why didn’t you just keep sawing before turning it?

[@markgalicic7788]

because I needed 11-1/4" to get two boards out of the cant.

How much do you get a board foot for the white spruce? 1 common.

about a $1.00.
