When I got passed 60 years of age I discovered it was a whole lot easier on me to watch others do the hard work. That's why I like watching ya run the mill. LOL. Just teasing.

As a man who lives and works in the city, I truly appreciate the life you live and the work you do, outside the city.

I just recently branched out into sawmill videos and found your channel. Great presentation. It's cool to watch older videos and seeing you so happy at having 14K subscribers. Now 4 years later it's 344K and this video has 14M views. You deserve this good fortune.

So that s how it's done . good learning vid

great to put that much work out there at the field and getting such a nice looking wood ! Well done! American hard working people, my respect and salute!

especially good video, sweet log . thanks for a fantastic upload.

I've watched a few different channels since stumbling on this subject and I think what I like about you is that you don't have the top of the line equipment. You just have the basics, which allows you to be proud of "doing it yourself," I mean how can you be proud when some machine does all the work for you like mechanically rotating the log for you, moves itself down the log etc. I'd rather be able to say, "I did it" Kudos. 👍👍👍👍👍 PS I love the outtakes.

I watched the other sweetgum video you mentioned here, and I'm working on getting all the logs from a fallen sweetgum in my neighbor's yard. Thanks for sharing these videos. I really enjoy the channel.

Your love of wood keeps me coming back; it comes across in your videos. I enjoy you being excited. I hope y

Fascinating work,keep these interesting videos coming,thank you for your time in producing it sir.

Very nice ! 👍

It's great to watch videos made from your wood

Nice work with very good machines. Thank you for sharing. From France.

Beautiful work of man. The wisdom of hundreds of thousands of years to obtain the most beautiful that nature gives us.

The wood milling is great to watch, and the grain in the boards is fascinating to see.

Gotta say that you make the best videos on UTube sawmilling.

You know, I hadn’t watched until the end until just now. No wonder my channel blew up! 1.5 million views??? That’s amazing! I’ll be able to tell folks “I knew him way back in the day!”😁 thank you for the shout out! And awesome job on the outtake edit. Perfect!

You were 13k subs at time of this video...you are now approaching 100k subs. Bravo! Congrats! I know absolutely nothing about lumber or milling but find myself watching because this is way better than all the junk on TV

Thank you sir it's good machine thanks for sharing very economical video I am from India

That's a good 🌲 tree... Thanks for the video...

Beautiful find!!! Love the colors of the wood.

That's beautiful wood ,what else ,we looking for like that man.👍👍👍👍👍👍😳😎

Great video and interesting content. I built a band sawmill years ago, and used trailer wheels for the pulleys. I got a lot of enjoyment out of running it. This brought back memories. Good luck with your channel's success!

Ahh a lovely faithful dog :) that’s some nice wood to use for some flooring, once polished or treated it’ll look stunning.

Love me some sweet gum. Good fire wood. Busted me up a a cord in 30 minutes with a splitting maul when I was younger. 😁

I loved this place

Thanks again for an awesome video! There are lots of different species I'll never get a chance to saw because they just don't grow here, so thanks for letting us have a look at what we might not ever see otherwise.

I literally jumped in my seat when I saw that poison ivy! I react badly to it and where I live it's everywhere, so I've grown to spot it quickly. Nice work on the log. Something new every time...

Fantastic detailed video. Thanks. Keep up the good work!

Always enjoy, thanx.

From Nicaragua I salute you man, you are good .

Great Job and thanks for the info on the other guys!

Awesome video ,well done.bring- em on

Wow nature sure does produce some wonderful thi things

I am amazed, I didn't realize how different the tree looks each time you cut a slice. I just started watching your videos. I'm mesmerized.

Great job ! From the 🇬🇧

great result wrg some timber that will look perfect when used plus knowing it grew and was felled and milled by you on your place congrats

I love watching interesting things like this. Thank you?

I enjoyed this video very much indeed, I appreciated the professionalism throughout, very educational and to the point, Thanks again! 👍

One of the best ford tractors ever made.

Definitely explains why this wood is used in all the trim for older homes. When we look for houses to live in we specifically seek gumwood out. It’s beauty can’t be matched. Drives me nuts when people paint over it.

Sweet gum is beautiful when finished.

Well done. Nice work... Greetings from Zurich, Switzerland.

getting such a nice looking wood

Nice. Love your channel. Also, anyone who promotes other channels shows humility. Your a talented man. This comment is from a Yankee friend in Minnesota.

Dude, you have the best cinematography on youtube. Hollywood needs you.

that would make a PERFECT dining room table

Enjoying watching. Thank you for sharing. From Papua New Guinea

Very beautiful round log,wow

A dog will never leave ya when friends get thin! Good on ya to make for your sidekick and yes I am subscribed

Wow, the wonders of nature.

Dog was really enjoying that back scratch!

Beautiful lumber! That will make some really nice flooring!

Sweet. Gum has less graining but nice and is like hickory wood and Australia cypress with beautiful heart ❤️ Thank you god bless you sir. Build a dry storage building on a show

Nice video I really enjoyed it and keep up. from Africa

Wow, what a find!

I love that old tractor

Respect from Italy!!

Great and very hard work ,congrat for you hability

Love your videos, thank you, from Australia

What a versatile machine,!!!!

Lots of opinions on this species. Experience helps: Sweet Gum is a WONDERFUL Wood, and HAS been used, and IS being used to make all kinds of beautiful and functional things. Yeah, there are defects sometimes. Same with Firewood use; LOTS of Heat. - look it up. Just because some don't like it isn't much reason to call it "trash". Nice Sawing, nice video, and thanks for sharing it.

So that's how it's done. Good learning vid.

That thing is a beauty.

Great content man. Loved it!!!

I would love to do this. Great video, I enjoyed it so much.

I saw someone use a pressure washer on a log before sawing it to remove rocks and dirt. That seemed a good way to preserve the sharpness of the blade. I think that pattern on that gum is beautiful!

Love seeing the LT10! I started on one several years ago and have fond memories of using it but love the bigger hydraulic mill today!

Mini sawmills... amazing

Sa Hoss, your right!!! That shit is beautiful! More beautiful than my old lady.

love the dog and yes they do know what their doing like you wood working

great wood and a nice hound !!!

What a beautiful piece of timber.

Boards look great! Can’t wait to see how they dry!

Parabéns, pelo trabalho. Sou do Brasil e acompanho seu canal...

I respect your work, success to you!

Three leaves let it be, that's POISON IVY!!! Excellent Production!!

You have very good equipments and machines...

Harvesting machines and cutting Machine are very useful

Man’s best friend!

That was a beautiful log! I was itching just watching you tear off those vines! Congratulations on the subs !

Good work, nice!

New to your channel will be watching just got a LT 15 I’m a Homestead channel great job

That is beautiful wood. Since this for a project at your home, how about doing a video on finishing the planks? The wood is beautiful in rough cut form. I'd really like to see the planks in finished form. And as always, keep up the good work.

wow nice project
