Short and sweet but lots of good info for those unfamiliar with grade sawing. Nice

Good video 👍 I worked on a band sawmill and appreciate your content on circular milling. We were associated with a high end flooring and moulding production and installation shop of custom order hardwoods. Oak, cherry, and maple were our main species, but we would, do whatever the customer would order. I like how you explain the function of your equipment and strategies of your cutting.

Also I forgot to add along with that, that’s why I like my belt speed up pretty fast there. It does spit those boards away from the carriage more efficiently

@@Helmsburgsawmill We did a lot of quarter and riff sawing so generally pith was not a problem since it was trimmed off on the edging process. We also ran different pitch blades for different species which obviously isn't feasible for a circular head mill but makes a world of difference in a band mill

Nice informative session. the pith is also somewhat unstable due to the nature of how the tree grew.

I’m glad you added this!! A board right out of the center of the pith, splits and cracks pretty badly

The saws for the vertical edger- do you bench and sharpen them yourself or do you send them to an outside vendor?

IAN, HAVE YOU EVER HIT METAL IN A LOG? DO THE LOGS PASS THROUGH A METAL DETECTOR BEFORE BEING SAWN?
