I remember seeing your first videos, when you only had a couple thousand subscribers, and were so nervous in front of the camera. You both have come a long way. The pride your dad must feel for all the hard work you both have done! As a parent, I can say we all hope out kids turn out even half as well as you have!

Em calling Jade out about her skills breaking the beam 😂😂 Big sis throwing little sis under the lumber truck 😂😂

Ah! The dancing Sawyers are back ! Simply beautiful. You ladies are really special.

I agree with Clay, it should be beside the new mil. As the wood comes off the mill Jade moves to her left and sends it back towards Emerald's right. A circle of efficiency.

You need a infeed deck raised up so you don’t have to lift each piece as you feed it into the edger , we had rails with small rollers on the lumber pilling end of the mill , you placed a piece of u-channel on the roller rails , and piled the lumber on top of the u-channel , when the pile was complete , you rolled the lift of lumber away , giving yourself space to pile another lift . Eventually the forklift arrived to remove the completed lift of lumber . We also used the same system to feed the planer mill . 👍🇨🇦

Happy and Blessed Easter to the Breon family, friends and viewers.

Today is beautiful day..the smile of jade and emerald looks sweet ,holy crap 😊👌

Damn that Jade is stoic Works hard makes it look easy. If I was twenty years younger, I would work for free to have these awesome Bosses. Thanks women of tomorrow you kick ass. Raised the bar for all of us.

America`s First Sawing-Mill Dance Company ... Great. 🤩

Us old timers measured the square footage and shape that each machine in the yard takes up, as well as the total area and topography that the yard has. Then scale down everything to the size of a game board and cut the outline of the machines out of different colour paper. Also, find a roll of paper and do the same thing with the yard. Now you can easily move the "paper machines" anywhere in the yard as many times as you like until you settle upon the perfect arrangement without having to repeatedly move the machines themselves.

Surely you can replace the beam that Jade busted or "sister" it up with another to support the overhead. With the new 70 on line working at an increased rate crew limitations you have an optimization problem. If you need to run the 70 at max caplacity with crew of two, then you need to calculate trade off benifit of standing down early in day to run the edger with the same two crew (Jade and Em). This is a labor resource constraint problem that you need to solve for maximum profitablility of product. Bigger businesses deal with this all the time and good number crunchers in operations could help you...if you had someone to help. Talk to people you know and trust and see if they can work it for you. The dance routines are nice and I am impressed with what you can do in work boots!

The 2 most beautiful sawmill operators, ever!

The best solution will be to build a big enough shed to house the mill and edger ...it's money , I know..but it will protect your equipment and be much easier for y'all , working the station

Hats off again to the hardest working family on KZfaq.

I was fascinated by your dance today! You have turned your workplace into a stage. Seeking a new style. That's so cool.

I like the pony tail look, maybe Jade would also like to try it!

Take the edger and remove the Convery off the feed end and but it up to the outfeed table on the Lt70. as the flitches leave the LT70 then they can be slid through the edger and put on a stack. Thanks for the video ladies, happy Easter and have a wonderful weekend. TTFN PS. Love the dance routine!

The way we saw up here (western Quebec) when the logs are being sawn to a consistent width, is to do the edging en masse on the mill (LT 40). Logistics - the science that makes a difference in real life.

Might I suggest putting the mill and edger side by side with the edger reversed. Jade could catch at the mill then immediately feed the edger. In turn you could catch at the edger, stack and run the mill.

My idea is line the edger parallel with the mill opposite of log deck. Mill operator (Emerald) as soon as the mill head is returned to the start position without dragging the flitch off, Emerald pulls the flitch feeds it in the edger. Jade can tail the edger and then return back to swamping the mill. Both Emerald and Jade will be moving together from mill to edger and back to the mill. Ladies stay safe. Happy Easter

What's hard to ignore is how beautiful these sisters are.

Emerald, thanks for asking us for ideas. The first idea for your dad would be forced overtime. once a week everyone work till midnight. That should catch you up in a month or so. Second would be putting your brother to work now. Don't video him for a while and he'll probably be old enough to work by the time the authorities catch on. Third would be to add another edger. Seeing you work that edger easily with one hand while drinking coffee makes it a no brainer. I think Jade could handle the other end of both edgers with ease. Have your dad contact me about more ideas. Instead of running from position to position, you could dance from place to place and sell tickets. It would easily pay for an extra employee or two.

I reckon that the strut got broken because Emerald was drinking a bucket🪣 of coffee☕️ instead of spotting for Jade😁! Have fun with getting the setup right. At least you are working in your yard, as opposed to some of the house sites I have worked on in my nice hilly city. Cheers from NZ🇳🇿.

U girls rock, keep makin us proud to b AMERICANS n the golden uniqueness we all hold, everyone n ur family is a positive influence from gramps to Judah, when I watch ur videos they make me PROUD TO B AMERICAN !!!!!! THANX

No worries Jade..........the brace is easily repaired. The dance segments rock.

we ran 3 people in our mill in the early 80's. one of the things you DONT have, is a conveyor, and a deposit table, where the stacker can recieve more than one board at a time, allowing the edger operator to run non stop for an extended period of time. if the stacker gets overwhelmed, operator can move to the back and help stacker. 2 people would get overwhelmed, (imo) to mill AND edge together. but edging to a reciever table, allows faster edging by using the operators help in stacking when the stacker falls behind.

Ladies!! You all always make each video interesting and informative. Thanks for including the dance moves :) I could have sworn, I saw the doggie's expression like: "Is it my turn to dance yet??" Thanks for all your continued hard work ;)

You two are nuts and I hope you never change. God Bless

Em, your hair looks terrific, very pretty, and it’s out of the way!

What a fun video. You girls are the best. Beauty,talent and hard working.

Move the edger so theinfeed stacks are right by the outfeed from the mill. Don't move the stacks until they run thru the edger. Shut down the mill about and hour of so sooner and run the edger then move finished wood only. No flitches on the forks. Jade, that cartwheel was impressive!

Stunning hard working ladies!

Nice spring day is there so dancing on the way

A simple solution is a belt drive conveyor placed between the equipment with a feeder on the output to send lumber into the edger. its done at most factories to automate some steps in production. buy a used one to begin with to save money.

Turn the edger 90° and put it at the end of the mill deck. That way Jade can remove the scales of the first cuts, run the following flitches through the edger (at a fixed width) and then , as normal, just take the finished boards of the saw deck. That would mean three pallets down by the deck. One for scales, one for sawn lumber and one for edged lumber. Guess the one for scales would have to be in the middle so Jade can put the offcuts from the edger on that pallet too.

LOVED IT ❤FAMILY FUN FOR ALL ☕️👍📹👌😉FROM 🇨🇦

I like the 3/4 turn towards the camera.

A big pole barn to house the equipement might be in order. Just a roof and walls to keep the cold wind in check. That expensive equipement including the girls will last longer.

Consider rotating the edger by 180 degrees to create a more linear production path. Positioning the feed end adjacent to the mill's output could reduce Jade's steps to just one or two when loading the edger.

Y'all are awesome. Keep up the good work! It is inspiring to see young people doing work.

Great Performance. You girls are looking good. Happy to see Jade smile.

Can you put the edger next to the mill (parallel) but in the opposite direction? Then Jade can put the boards on the edger and they come straight back to Emrald for stacking. Distributing the extra work. Not sure if that works out space-wise. You probably also need some room to stand between the mill and the edger.

Put the edger in the optimal spot to feed it right from the mill, then make a new roof that covers the edger and the mill. They both need to be covered.

Oh my I just can’t wait for summer, the spring is looking good 😊🎉

Love your hair Up. Cut boards in the AM and take whatever time needed to do Edger work each day. At the end of the week, done and done. Love the Dance Steps and leaps and everything! ♥

Third person would solve a number of issues.

If you can arrange the edger alongside the mill so that the boards can make a "U-turn" or side move if they require edging you will save much space and get a nice work flow. Boards not needing edging can go straight to the pile off the mill. The only thing to solve is to get some sort of saw dust removal to avoid having to work between the machines. Having them alongside each other is also beneficial if you later on want to build a roof over the machines for better weather protection. If you cannot have the machines alongside each other, try to think of an right-angle turn instead, but this requires more "floor"-space. The aim should be to have both an efficient work flow and avoid as much manual handling (lifting, twisating etc,) as possible Using ball rollers in turns are very efficient.

I’m with other folks advising moving the edger closer to the mill, or vise versa. Yes, you said the mill is bolted to a concrete pad but if there is a more efficient way to do things it may have to be moved. Think of it like a kitchen, where you have have 3 major places to get to: food storage/fridge, food prep/counter space + oven and cleanup/sink. A work triangle is most efficient where nothing is more than a step or two away. Working with 12’ boards expands that triangle and distances that have to be covered, but same idea. If you have to have the mill & saw 90° to each other, then maybe add a roller table or two and get an electric scooter or Segway so Jade can zip back and forth. Or a couple so Em can buzz down to help load the edger. Or like other folks suggest, incorporate edging each day instead of just Fridays. So, 6:24 sawing and 1:36 edging. Assuming y’all work an 8 hour day. Good luck! 👍

I ENJOY,your descriptions/explanations,good job

You two young ladies are absolutely beautiful and amazing ❤❤❤❤❤

yin / yang it with the mill! one is pulling off the mill and onto the edger, the other is pulling off the edger and running the mill. It'll be a bit of a dance but you two could figure out the timing

Set it up at the back of the mill. So when your board returns to you, you can go from there right into the edger

You guys a hilarious! Way to make it throught the work day! Far-out! Intense, and ever so graceful!

Jeeeeeesus emerald looks phenomenal lol

Awesome work accomplished today!! Amazing dance routine! Enjoy your weekend!! 👍💃🧙‍♂️🐺🕺🤙

Wonderful. This is terrific.

I love it . Fashion model Friday ,you look stunning Emerald .

I’ll tell you what works: Emerald with your hair tied up! You don’t have to hide behind those long locks, both you and Jade are ‘all growed up’ and you deserve to let off the steam with a few dance moves at the end of a busy day. Keep up the good work!

You must return the output of the edger to the mill end to share the labor time. That said. Lumber Capital Log Yard family thanks you. Your presentations make me feel more like family than viewer. Not many can make you observe, think about a solution and smile about it. But, coffee while your sister labors? LOL!

quick to learn congrats. Proud of you all. Love my Little Buddies.

Put the Edger to the road side of the new Mill (Parallel to the Mill). As the wood comes off the Mill, Jade slides it directly across and feeds into the Edger. Edged pieces of wood will end up back with Emerald to clear off the Edger to stack. This will reduce the walking issue you highlighted you currently have due to the length of the Edger.

Девчонки , вы просто молодцы!!!!

If you girls had boyfriends you could put them to work and have 4 people running the mill process instead of two.

Wow thank you for your video, the up keep and inventory at Lumber Capital is amazing…. I love the way your hair is put up. gorgeous lovely ❤❤❤❤

Have you asked Wood-Mizer's head office to look at your situation? They see hundreds of operations and setups and will advise you on becoming more effective. Good video yet again 💪👍🫡

Love the dance routine. You girls have got it going on!

You do need another person!

Emerald, it looks like they are in a "T" configuration. Could you place them side by side? Jade could take any boards that needed to go through the edger and turn them around, send them through the edger to you. 'Then, while the mill was cutting a board you could unload the edged board. Jade would continue to handle the boards that were properly milled on her end. It would kind of share the extra work on the edger between you with her loading it and you unloading it.

Loved the energy!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤

Wood Mizer has a customer spotlight video on a large mill with additional conveyor and the edger at the end. You basically need more room. A shed roof over the entire operation would be helpful, but again more money.

I like the dance routine at the end of the videos. You go girls.

great job love the videos have a great easter

We ran a heavy roller off the back of the table to a conveyer that would take it to the trim saws, The table had two rollers built in and we made a third to ride on top. It had two pivoting arms attached to the table. We then attached them together with square steel and had a chain attached to that going to a pully in the ceiling that the edger operator could lift. we also had a bracket with a hole welded to the front of the egder were he could put a pin in place to keep the arms with the roller up if we need to. Don't know if that will be any help to you, but good luck.

As far as problems go that’s the best one to have! Other than moving the edger closer to the mill. I’m not no where near an expert in milling lumber! But I’m sure y’all will get it worked out!! Congratulations on the new mill & have a great Easter weekend!!

It sure looks like a 3 person job to me with your current setup. I enjoyed the video explaining the issues and the dance interlude. I had to laugh when Emerald worked the edger with one hand because she was NOT letting go of her cup of coffee

Other than "automating" a transfer from the LT70 to the edger, an additional person is part of the solution. Moving the machines maybe needed to streamline the process. BUt whatever you do, please do not make HURRYING part of the solution. That will lead too someone getting hurt.

Perhaps the rite answers will come in time. Nice work in the mean time ladies!❤

Great video Emerald and Jade

Loved the trippy dance interlude!

Well done Ladies!

Funny, born and raised in Long beach CA. barely know what trees are. But its awesome to learn. Thank you for the help and education.

That big beautiful mill is so fast, you just need two helpers...1 stacking the good lumber, and another running the edger. An alternative could be to push the good lumber thru the plant, and sell the live edge fletches AS live edge boards, to woodworkers looking for that product, and save the time and energy needed to rip them down into a more finished product.

The edger needs to be parallel and very close with the mill's outfeed table. After feeding into the edger the edged boards and trims can then be stacked at 90* to the edger's outfeed facing the highway with the end of the boards near the center of the cant being sawn. Jade stacks cross ties/slabs at end of the mill and lumber (at 90*... or a "fanned station" for each of 3 products) and also feeds the edger in reverse to Emerald who stacks the trimmed/edged lumber.

You both are amazing work ❤️ 😊

Maybe a title for your dancing "The steel toed frolic" or "The work boot wham" or "The sawmill jig". I like "Babes in sawland"

Great video, makes my break time nice. Thanks to your dad for the lesson on chainsaws. Was one of the best.

Loving the high ponytail Emerald.

Thanks for sharing 🍸 and for the half-time show🎉

Edger and mill should be 2 separate processes. You two have a system of teamwork that works well for both jobs. Probably best not to mess with that.

Dance routine is back, awesome!!!. Not sure your logistics when it comes to the flow. Only been there one time and I think I can envision what you're referencing but a diagram of current setup would be really great to figure this out. I'm sure ya'll already thought of that though. Carry on.

Using roller tables reduces physical demands on workers and time walking. The rollers need to deliver slabs/boards to a collection point close to edger feed point and allows several boards to cluster without jamming the system/process. You may have to complete one log at a time through both processes. Having each work station lower than the previous one can help reduce fatigue

Wow, you out did yourselves! Great video!

I'm sure grandpa has the solution he is a genius. Maybe the bracing on the roof could be smaller 🤔

Only 4-6 boards from the log need to go through the edger so put it next to the outfeed from the mill(Log loading side). Don't block the space for offloading the square edged boards that don't need to go through the edger. So boards that need edging get pushed over to infeed of edger and these are dealt with while the mill slabs the baulk(square log), don't out feed one plank at a time from the mill if cutting all the same width boards, cut 3-6 before pushing off onto the out feed .this would give second person time to deal with edger before boards come off the mill for stacking. the edger would benefit from an out feed that holds the centre board but allows outer strips to drop away then the board travels further down 16ft at least and falls onto a return feed back to the second operator near to the stacking area.

Automation and robotics for improving wood stacking,wood flow and storage operations!

Great workers and awesome dancers. ❤️👍

Don't know why YT recommended this but it was very surreal. Great eyes.

you gals bring a new meaning to sawmill choreography

What a treat!! Watch the whole video, sawmill aerobics!!❤ How many years of dance classes for you two?

Your fashion for this episode was exquisite.
