Having someone who works with you and the equipment is a TEAM. A team is not made up by one giving orders to another. It is by mutual respect and explanation. Howard (I hope) knows what is to be done through use and discussions. A proper team. A team gets more production than two people working. Nice job gentlemen. Amacf

I notice you cut an undersized plank second to last. When you have the full cant can you rely on the log scale to work out from the bottom up where your first cut should be, then when you get down to the bottom of the cant the last cut leaves a dimensional piece without the underside piece needing to be cut? It’s one less cut and the first plank would have less bark.

I just scanned through sixteen visible comments, and it seems that Howard has started to develop a fan base, me included. Your comments at the end took the words off my keyboard about him. He knows what to do, and when to do it without any thing from you. He really is a good man. I do have one question. What was wrong with that next to last board that Howard didn't put on the trailer?
@falllineridge5 жыл бұрын
Howard can outwork most 30 year olds I have no doubt. It's hard to tell the exact thickness from the video, but that last board was probably only about a half an inch thick. It was just the piece that had to be shaved off of the remaining board on the mill to get the last board to the thickness I wanted. It's tough to save pieces like that because I can't really sticker it with the rest of the 1" boards and it won't be as stable during the drying process. Also, I won't be able to use it for wall boards because it's just too thin.
@FLPhotoCatcher5 жыл бұрын
What I do with boards like that is dry it, then cut them on a table saw to 5/8" widths to make stickers 5/8" high. I know that's a bit thin, but it seems to work for me.

I am a new subscriber so I apologize if you've already covered this, but did you get the sawmill purely for hobby/personal use? Or did you have any plans to recover the cost by hiring out your services/reselling some of the wood? Just thinking through whether a sawmill would be worth it for me.
@falllineridge5 жыл бұрын
Ben Hey Ben! Thank you for your subscription. I had aspirations of milling for hire, but I never really pursued it. I use it solely for myself at this point. It is worth it for me to make lumber for my own projects and to trade with friends. Plus it’s a ton of fun.
