Start to Finish!! Sawing a 34 inch diameter log

[@410Gregj]

I don’t know what’s more impressive the log flipper or that horizontal laser guided gang head. Amazing! Thanks for sharing!

[@mikecrockett3669]

Awesome. Never a seen a mill that cuts and edges at the same time. Thanks for sharing!

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

No problem!! Thank you for commenting!

[@Svendus]

Very impressive and fast with the two vertical and two horizontal saw blades well done, thank you for shearing ❤

[@veterantechus]

Sawing a 34-inch diameter log from start to finish is an impressive feat that truly showcases the power and precision of modern sawing techniques!

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

You should watch some of my more recent uploads!

[@thomaswhite3831]

I ran a Head-rig like that for 15 years, I really miss it . 56'' bottom saw 38'' top saw .I would have appreciated those two edger saws , and my rig was left hand feed ,log turner and infeed deck on the right . Thanks for the memories .

I have logged in the field and worked almost every machine in a sawmill. I really appreciate it. The smells, the beauty of the wood. If I were still able to I would still be working with it.

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

No waste of wood on this setup.👍

Did you not see how much was wasted every time he flipped the log?

[@gmyers4366]

Seems some people forget that the lumber cut here will go thru more steps before being finished. Its rough sawn lumber like this. I love the blade cut marks in the wood comparde to bandsaw cutting.

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

Thank you! Good followers and people that truly understand the industry leave good comments like this! And I’ve always thought the same about the sawmarks!! Bandsaw marks are generic. And every one of those 4/4 boards is going to get finished out at 13/16’s inches. I’m glad you understand that.

[@wilmamcdermott3065]

Top saw edger all in one fast production no edger no resaw

[@rammy630]

Nice job. looks like tooth alignment maybe , irregular saw pattern on that bottom saw.

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

Oh I assure my guide pins are always correctly aligned and I keep my teeth filed straight across. Where the bottom of the saw enters is correct. But our motor is larger than a typical saw. And due to the increased rpms, it likes to lean in a little bit when the saw is buried. If my feed rate was quicker it would do it even worse. I’ll make a video on it some time. But when you see cuts that don’t look aligned with the bottom and tops saws, it’s not about alignment. When you catch them running together under different circumstances, the alignments are different all the time. The saws behave differently with different species, widths, lengths, which end of the log is facing the saw when it’s put on, etc.

[@rammy630]

Yes I understand what your saying about the saw wanting to cut in like that , What I meant was the cut pattern on the bottom saw looks very rough like a few of the saw teeth are mis aligned that is all . Hard to see from a video. It dose look like you have plenty of power . Years ago when I used to saw white oak all we had was a 401ci. Case diesel power unit with a 52`` saw ,it did good but you had to feed pretty slow with the old Lane mill. @@Helmsburgsawmill

[@d6c10k4]

I get what you're saying about the top /bottom saw alignment being difficult to get perfect. Always wondered why I see a step on wide lumber. Kind of seemed like it should have been planed out.

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

It got sent to the grade lumber outlet. They run every board through sanders and planers. When we do grade lumber, we just get the logs turned into boards. Now we have milling equipment for doing smaller projects

[@robintaylor-mockingeemill8223]

great to some one milling some real logs!! keep it up,AAA

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

Thank you!! I’ll saw any log that can get loaded onto that carriage!

[@petervoyt24]

Love your videos. . It is fascinating to see both the vertical and horizontal blades cut a finished product in one pass. I noticed what looks like saw marks on the boards, is that typical of a vertical circular saw blade cut ? And is their some computer tech involved in adjusting the blades or is done manually ?

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

Yes the circular marks on the log and the boards are typical. As the teeth life go down the marks become less aggressive. As you could imagine, as you file a tooth, it gets narrower, and cuts less aggressively over the course of its life

[@Angkertvg]

Amazing ❤👍🙏

[@nadeemmustafa6450]

WONDERFUL ❤❤❤

[@alanstrong55]

White oak is Supreme wood. Good for lining the bed of say an old Ford or Chevy truck. Imagine a custom home built from white oak 4x4's. Far too costly.

[@joestone2068]

Cool video love watching you I noticed on this video the Topsaw is not aligned with the bottom. Do you use shims to line that up?

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

So it may appear that way! This is an older video. The saws are always aligned and shims are never used! However, when that bottom saw is sharp, the top of the blade leans inward. And the tip of the bottom saw is getting pushed out. This causes an overlap. However, you’ll find in the video I uploaded earlier on that big poplar, that over lap is barely noticeable;)

[@garylarson6386]

the horizontal blades really add to production

Could you do a video explaining the quarter sawn process?

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

I would sir but unfortunately I can only do flat cut. I can’t quarter the logs because the edger box won’t allow the clearance. However I can tell you flat cut has a different grain compared to quarter sawn

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

How bout this? I get enough subs, and I can get enough viewership. I can see about getting a little quarter sawn mill made

where did the tree come from, old growth forest?

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

Correct! It came from the heart of Brown County Indiana. That was a top log. We sold the first 25’ of it to a veneer buyer. Brown County Indiana grows some of the best White Oak in the world

It’s a combination of defects and what pieces I’m going for!

Big beautiful log that could have yielded some nice wide quarter saw boards🙄

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

Nah bud. That white oak wasn’t nice enough to make quarter sawn boards in these parts. That was a tip log

[@firecaptaintom]

Are you shaving to account for log tension/movement or it sitting imperfectly on the carriage?

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

I shave for log tension but that isn’t my reason in this case! Anytime I flip a log to another side I have to re-establish my cut. It’s all manual. This is an unconventionally large log, and normally I’m not flipping them that many times. Usually I never come back to a side

until the log is square they waste a lot of wood, hope they put those pieces in a chipper and making wood pellets or something useful

It's not waste, its required to get boards from lumber.

The Horizontal saws badly need adjustment ... cutting too deep?

[@Helmsburgsawmill]

The guide pins are set where they should be. The adjustment doesn’t help with the top of the saw. And if it’s sharp, the teeth grab and pull the top of the saw deeper into the log. If I would’ve went faster, it would’ve been even worse. You can’t really avoid it with exceptionally big logs

Thanks for sharing! Why do you sometimes stop the log during sawing and move it backwards? As a week-end woodworker i've always heard not to do this on my table saw for safety reasons. No safety issue or risk of damage on your hardware ? I guess nope and i'm curious to hear from you 😊
