Wormy Pine on the sawmill and there’s a jumpy governor on the Farmall

Gonna need a governor Spring very soon. This pine log was crooked and wormy on the outside but it made a few good boards.

Thanks for the video, Nice to see old American equipment still being useful.

we had H's but my uncle has super M's that has got to be about 75 years old!

[@tennesseesawmillguy1590]

Thanks. We like the old stuff with lots of ‘character’.

What a beautiful pine log!!!

[@TheOldManAndTheSaw]

Good video. The mill seems to do a pretty good job on that Pine. Dave

Go down to your local Tractor Supply Company, and look in the spring section for part number C-173. Thats the one you need to make that Super M come to life.

Thanks! I did think about wiring up but I’d better do it right. 😉

[@Adam-uk8pw]

@@tennesseesawmillguy1590 LOL wiring the spring will basically disable the governor, and shell turn 3k until the center main cracks🤣

I guess the winter time has given you some sawmill time. Glad you and your videos are doing well. I have many beetle kill pines standing. More than I’ve ever seen before. But hickory is on the log rack and my blade is dull!

[@tennesseesawmillguy1590]

Yeah, we mow for 40 weeks of the year, so not much time to saw when the grass is green. I bought around 3500 ft of Pine logs last Spring, just to keep something to saw and build a few things. Hope you’re doing well.

You need to come to Ga. to my house for a few days. I could keep you busy...

[@charlietanner6211]

[@JamesSimmons-qf4hb]

What type of sawmill are you running?

[@tennesseesawmillguy1590]

It’s a Foley Belsaw m14.
