Watching the sawyer work. Two Bakers are belted into the saw at the 2018 JS Company sawing day. The engines are a 23-90 Baker and a 19-65. The saw is an old Frick mill modified by JS Co. with air setworks and hydraulic log turner.

This guy is a beast - he could work a crew of men to death trying to keep up - If you’ve ever worked at a sawmill you know it’s work Green lumber ain’t no joke

As someone who has sawn on a manual mill and full hydraulic this is a slick setup I like that kicker on the carriage, saves a lot of scarring on the wood. Also would like to say that I have turned cant on a fast manual mill and that is no easy job either, it appears to me that the sawyer I would say a very good one is also a very powerful man to be throwing logs and cants like that. Love the steam power Great video!

He sure is a good sawyer, he has each log eyed up to take max from everyone.

Grew up on my daddy’s sawmill. Never seen one run this fast. Really neat setup on the carriage. The fellow running the saw is a beast lol would not want to be stacking. That kicker is something else also. Great setup

I was so fascinated by the sawyer I didn’t notice the huge steam tractor running the mill. Workers are like a colony of ants running to and fro. Great work ethic.

I love how the stack clears under load as the engine drafts through the smokebox.

M Gbill hey thanks for your reply. Very interesting information, just a couple gigantic hurdles . One I am out here in western Colorado and two I don’t have enough money for that kind of expenditure. Thanks again for the offer though. P.s. is it an 0 or a 00. 😀

The amish familys are raised up different than others in america, honesty, hard work and luxry items are not part of there life. Men work with there bodys all there life. It use to be this way for everyone but now americans for most part are unable to do hard labour but there is still a few.

@@brandocommando36 Actually I was just giving info out. I am not affiliated with the video poster. I have spent since 1982 working in the timber industry. I worked as a millwright from 1987 to 2012 when my back finally needed fused...twice. My body is not willing but my brain is still in the game. My son was trained in my pocket and has been maintenance guy since 2000. My Dad was in maintenance from 1970 til the late 90's. I love the sound of a saw running!
