It's nice to listen someone that pronounces every consonant and vowel, and when that person is pleasant to look it's an added bonus.

[@nigelparker5886]

As a Brit and English speaking too of course, I picked up on your comments immediately! The girls don’t speak in what may be described in an exaggerated American manner, which can sound a little grating sometimes, ( and I’m not posh!), so my comment is that they speak delightfully clear and concise..a sure sign of both good parenting and importantly, good schooling too...nice to listen to! I like these vids and I hope it helps with your business too!? Waste not want not, is the way forward for us all! Cheers from England here.

I want to take this opportunity to thank you for the quality of your videos. Certainly you are in a unique position to provide interesting information about an elusive subject. But you present your subject matter in the most articulate way possible. Many other people with similar expertise make videos that should be of vital interest but they fall short due to bad camera angles and having marbles in their mouth. I have the advantage of replay, but sometimes it isn't enough.

This is a great channel. I wish it had been around about 20 years ago when I built my garage out of rough-cut lumber from my own land which I had milled at a local sawmill. They delivered the lumber in October but didn't sticker it. At the time I didn't know enough to insist on it or to do it myself. The next spring when I went to use the lumber it was saturated. Every nail I drove through it brought out a spurt of water. The garage is still standing but the gaps in the siding are far greater than they should be. I've learned a lot since then. Keep up the wonderful content.

[@bluenetmarketing]

The trees behind you on that mountain have rebounded pretty well after the insect attack this spring. You could do hair modeling and make million$. It is incredible.

Hmm " Stickers" In the UK we would probably just call it a stick? Why do you add the "ers" on the end?

[@jan-ovepedersen5764]

I log birch wood and a few other species on my parents land for firewood, mostly for our own use. We have a chainsaw, a log cutting saw, a log splitter, and a device for filling the finished product into sacks. We save a ton of money being self sufficient when it comes to frewood. It's great to watch your operation, your videos are very informative for a person that know noting about how a lumber yard works. I can relate to the firewood part though. Great videos, keep them coming. Greetings from the arctic part of Northern Norway.

[@josephtiberio2503]

If there is a "Floor Sweep" manufacturer within a reasonable distance try to get a contract to supply their saw dust. If not, start making it yourself. all you need is a tumbling drum, the right type of oil. and saw dust!

You guys rock.. love watching

[@donroo736]

My favorite part was the sawdust scene

[@theflyingcandleguyme6144]

I used to work double 9 hour shifts on a 1”x 4” cedar fir and pine dry chain piling boards as fast as a human being can move. I own 40 acres of Forest land in Washington State. When my Mom and Dad and I had the trees thinned the loggers left 4 HUGE piles of top about 30 feet long. I ended cutting splitting and selling it for $160.00 a cord. I easily got many dozens of cords of firewood out of it. You and you family are awesome🤠

[@jbbrown7907]

I often thought about all the wedges I cut in order to fell thebtrees. If someone came along behind me as I harvested forest products. I created cord after cord of wedges, all similar all unique. There has to be a marcñket for the wedges cut in order to fell the timber. Some ofnourngood oak shows paid a second crew or us a second shift to process the tops into cut split firewood. A 30" dbh red oak will have a cord in the top.

[@dennishinkle5010]

Firewood sales is a great business. Low overhead and little waste is a great business plan. This is how a business thrives. Thank you.

[@Mickeyj26]

just an idea (if you are not doing it already of course) those posts that you have peeled, if you keep the bark and let it dry, there is no better firestarter than dried bark. You dont even need to use kindling if you have really dry bark as it burns really hot......so that can be sold as natural kindling/firestarter.

[@dougeiswerth8683]

All I use to start my fire!

[@KenBreon]

Thank you. I am going to try your idea. Boss Man.

[@BWreSlippySlope]

Getting used to the sawdust in my coffee.

[@craigdonnelly2290]

Excellent conservation and harvesting practice. Here in Southeastern Ohio there is more wood left than removed because of there high-grading practice. Rewarding to see such a complete process of harvesting our forests. All of your group are and surely should be proud. Thanks for being good stewards. 😇

[@dpeterson9522]

I love the no waist of the tree. You are very articulate with your explanations . it's refreshing that someone isn't talking down to me with the great way to do things. Have you thought of a pelletizer to run some of the sawdust through for another form of fire wood. yo can get the pellets in just about any size you would like. The French braid is a nice touch!!🤩

[@KennyInVegas]

I sure wish I could walk around your mill. I love the smell of all that cut timber. Thanks for video... interesting........ Kenny in Vegas

[@mikep9690]

Have you thought about natural charcoal? Take everything from the tree that you leave on the land and pack it in a high ground pit . Cover the pit with clay . Dig a chimney on the side of the pit and poke vent holes in the clay . Build a good fire in the chimney and let it cook. I'm sure you have a Bob cat and a back hoe . This can make as much as the footboard per tree.

Wood chips is another good way of "taking care of it all". I make around 100 cubic yards a year out of everything crooked, cracked, bent and generally useless for anything else. In my case it is mainly for heating the house but I see on the market here in Sweden that it's popular for covering paths/tracks to even the surface out and keep the weeds at bay. The latter also goes for the vegetable garden &/or around your flowers.

[@jacklabloom635]

Sounds like an efficient operation.

[@marionecula9771]

Wow. It is amazing how many subscribers you have now , in this relative short time. It is also amazing to see how many men are interesting in milling logs.

[@mkllove]

Along with your other merchandise, maybe you could sell some of the sawdust packaged as air fresheners for cars, kennels, or even in your shoes ? They (air fresheners) also could be packaged up as part of an emergency firestarter kit to be sold with your bundled wood sales. Has anyone explored making charcoal from byproduct wood materials ? You could make a kiln out of a small sea container if bottom is buried to be sealed against ground (wooden floors would ultimately burn away) or invert one of those trash bin/containers and seal up gaps for air control.

What is so unique, (to me), about your operation is that you aren't really just a log yard. You're so much more! I'm not sure if you're logging your own land but you are loggers, a mill, and a lumber yard... not to mention a delivery system! That's pretty cool. Next up, create your own power with wood waste!

Emerald talked about future plans to put a solar system in but with all the buildings it would take a big array and battery bank !

While not in this video, you have shown milling basswood for the a business that I assume is using it for ax targets. Basswood is highly desirably by bird carvers. You can check Amazon to see the dimensions and prices and will be surprise. You might be able to wholesale blocks to retailers who sell to carvers. There is a constant demand for stakes, lath and hubs by land surveyors and others. Call a around and see it you get into that niche market. And finally, Boss Lady responded to a comment to a prior video that you are considering a chipper. Here in the West wood chips are used extensively for mulch.

[@ccrx6700]

Very good presentation Emerald. Mill workers put sawdust in their coffee, railroaders put creosote..... :-) Adds a unique flavor..... Not sure where you are located but around here (SW Pa.) there is a huge demand for cut hard wood railroad ties, perhaps that may also be an option if you have a creosoting plant close by. Tie plants are always running out of tie blanks to be treated here. We often have to order ties months in advance to assure getting them. Some tie plants also buy soft wood for ties and then sell them treated at a discounted price.
