Nice videos. Check out my channel. I have Wood-Mizer LX 25 sawmill.

Many people say it’s not worth killing your own wood because it’s so much work, but it’s equally satisfying milling. So relaxing!!!

@@makingitinalaska how much is one of those ? I'm going to guess at $40,000 usd

This one was right around $10k. Pretty basic mill. The $40k ones have hydraulics that roll the logs, bigger motors, wider and longer cut options, and they are on trailers… maybe someday. This works for now.

@@makingitinalaska awesome 👍

Yes! Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching

It is so much fun. Thanks for watching!

It makes the math a lot easier. No dealing with 1/2 and 1/4.

Yeah I'll bet... I never liked fractions.

@@randomconsumer4494 in the lumber industry in Finland we use 2x4 2x5 etc because it's more convenient to say but when you need 38x100mm you just say 38x100

Thanks for watching!

Loving mine so far. Very few learning curves.

Thanks for watching.

While firewood is good. That’s what the tree tops and first cuts are used for. We love being able to produce our own building materials out of trees that would otherwise just rot in the woods.

Very helpful. We are down closer to $5, but that still makes this log worth $80

Thanks for watching

Really want a better foundation for the entire mill. Maybe someday.

There are cheaper options. I know woodland mills makes some good mills, and I’ve also heard good things about Norwood. Just went with the woodmizer because I know many people that had them and loved them. And yes quartersawn is likely more stable. Not sure if it matters much for strength. These were turned into an outhouse the next day, and the log was dry when milled so not worried about warping.

They are awesome

Gracias!

I know this guy too!!!

Always try to get the most out of every log. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching

It would be better if the sawdust went out the other direction.

Thanks.

Thank you.

I did further process the outside slabs to get some 1x4 and 1x6

Thanks for watching... not sure what the mistake was.

Thanks for watching works well!

This one was pretty dried before we cut, and we build with them that day so they should be fine.

@@makingitinalaska I thought so.👍 From the Čech Republic 🇨🇿

It’s is a pretty amazing piece of equipment.

@@makingitinalaska Yes it was. 🔥

Thanks for watching!

@@makingitinalaska Just subscribed! 👍🫡

Awesome thanks. I have a longer video of a monster log I just milled coming in the next couple of days. Stay tuned.

Thanks for watching

18 out of this one plus a few 1x that I processed after.

Very sharp.

I prefer to use birch for that, but we have used some thicker live edge spruce for benches. Thanks for watching.

Woodmizer sis the name of the company. Not sure if they have any sales in your area. Search for them and check it out.

Almost as satisfying to do as it is to watch… but it requires me to get off the couch.

@@makingitinalaska 😀

It is, but not on that picticular saw mill. To much work.

We paid right around $10k shipped to Alaska. They are going. For about $12k now..

Only one sided blade. Cuts in one direction. Sawdust is no problem.

I am not a dealer. Just a consumer. Contact woodmizer in Indiana, USA.

These go for about 12k usd

I dont work in russian... but google translate works.

Completely agree. All of the trees I use have either died naturally or were removed because they were cleared to make room for building. I have not cut live trees just to mill them.

@@makingitinalaska treees dont live forever.. most softwoods life span is around 100 years old... either cut them or mother nature will claim them thru fires,blow down, heavy wet snow, or insects...just saying..

You do understand that trees grow back at an amazing rate, right? What happened when the lightning induced forest fires before human existence? The forest burned the undergrowth and induced a completely new Eco-system and trees amongst other vegetation. It is a cyclic world, just like our weather. The companies that cut down trees are required to plant three or more trees for every tree they cut down, in some areas of the world. In 20 years, nobody will even know the trees had been cut down in that area. You tree huggers need to understand farming and building supplies plus demand for our society. Let me guess, you want us to stop using petroleum too? Better stop buying phones, laptops, TV's, make-up, any plastic bottles, and pretty any vehicle because it even a fully electric call is full of petroleum and rare each metals like lithium-ion batteries from Ore that took incredible power and energy to mine to make your batteries. Then you have to use natural gas, coal or petroleum to make electricity to charge the car, your phone, laptop and everything else you buy. It is an Eco-system that is thriving, not dying.

@@Balticblue93 yup what he said…. If it’s dead either I turn it into something amazing or it burns down with all the live trees around it.

There are more trees today than any other time in human existence so don't feel so bad

Hello. Thanks for watching

No that one was quite dry. Not sure how long it had been down. It came in on a firewood load.

@@makingitinalaska do you guys treat the 2x4’s if you cut from fresh logs? If so, how?

@@miguellopez-ku8eb if they will be exposed to the weather we use use an Australian timber oil. If not we don’t treat them at all. If ground contact is needed we usually use a ground treated timer from the store to separate our material from the dirt.

@@makingitinalaska very interesting stuff, getting a band saw with my father out of Phoenix, AZ of all places. Partnered up with a felling company

@@makingitinalaska definitely coming back with more questions

These are made in the USA.

Thanks for watching

These cost about $12k usd.

As I have already stated. I don't cut live trees unless they are in the way for building... If there is issue with that then I wonder where you live? Land is all cleared at some point.

Thank you for watching.

Thanks for watching and the comment. They are rough cut off the mill, but if you have been to any lumber yard in America in the last two decades. I would take my lumber over theirs any day.

I own and operate a sawmill in America. I run Baker equipment. My lumber is always square.
