One of the biggest, most impressive logs I have seen, and the most beautiful slabs made from it. I see great teamwork. Notice the bags of sawdust already cleaned up. Thank you for a great video. Hard work is worthwhile.

BEAUTIFUL wood with fantastic grain. I would love to see it after sanding, finishing and polishing. Those guys really work hard well together.

I like watching these kinds of video's. It's interesting to see how other people of the world work. These guys know about working together ( team work ). And they get it done with few resources. That is some great looking wood.

the wood is absolutely beautiful. my hats off to these guys. nice to see people aren’t afraid of hard work.

That is the best grain pattern I have ever seen in my life. Can you imagine a table made from this wood. Wow. Thanks for sharing.

Me encanta esos tablones posiblemente sean para mesas rusticas,que belleza😃👌yo soy ebanista por eso admiro esa calidad de madera

2/18/2019 USA Men, I've read many of your comments, and I agree with most of you: hard work does kill, maim, debilitate, wear out our old bodies. And if dangers are hidden by the bosses we are in danger of long, painful, agonizing deaths from cancer-causing agents in the processes. We spend our youthful vigor, proud in our strength. We sacrifice ourselves for the women we love and the children we sire. The landowners, investors, the white collars make their livings off the hard work of us. One hidden danger in this video is the band saw. I've worked one of those here in the USA in a mill. It is as dangerous as a semipsychotic PMS armed with a loaded gun whose child is missing. If one of those blades snaps during work, it speeds out of that saw and quicker than you blink your eye, it rips off arms, legs, heads, and bodies in half. The work it does is unequaled, but the danger requires respect. Our instructions were that if we heard a certain sound we were to back up as fast as we could. The men in this video who are making pennies a day probably don't have a real idea of how much money that great huge wonderful slab for a custom table in the USA is worth. As a woodworker I covet that center slab. To my eyes it is beautiful and capable of becoming wonderful useful things. Thanks to their sweat and spit, that slab goes to someone who will spend a small fortune unseen by the workers. I'm glad we get to see videos like these. I'm glad we've got KZfaq to watch. Our world is so much smaller now. I feel a bond with those men in the video, and with those of you who have commented. I don't know what good it does, and whether we die tomorrow or next year. Maybe what we are doing observing and commenting will have effect somewhere else.

Another amazing video Mikael, thank you.

THAT IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SLAB I HAVE EVER SEEN. MY CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL YOUR TEAM AND TO GOD AS WELL. PEACE

Thank you for the video. Hard work never hurt anybody. Very good team work to get a job done. Nice looking slabs and grain in the wood. I was trying to help you roll that log up on the mill i could fell my muscles tighten up each time you tried lol. Job well done. P.s new subscriber.

This is a great piece of equipment and it takes a great bunch of poeple to run it, they are really craftsmen, very good log, none better thanks for showing

Team work and knowing their job well are just as good as well oiled machine!!!!! Great job!!!!

Beautiful slabs of wood, sure would make some mighty fine instruments such as guitars

Super hard work ! Deadly as hell ! All in just another day on the job for these guys cool ! Awesome stuff

Dilihat dari penampilannya pekerja ini adalah saudara sebangsa. Dengan peralatan semi mekanik butuh tenaga yang banyak. Sangat positif untuk mengurangi pengangguran. Jika semua serba mekanik tentu hanya 1 sampai 2 orang saja dapat pekerjaan yang lain jadi penonton. Pertahankan seperti ini bos biar yang lain juga kebagian rejeki.

These guys are tough. I’ve done manual labor jobs for the last 20 years. I’d love to have these guys on my crew!

I don’t know, should I wear boots or flip flops (sandals ) or just go barefoot. These guys are hard workers.

That's one hell of a band saw! Beautiful wood. I wouldn't mind having even the waste from that log!

Beautifully figured wood. You guys are some hard workers.

Beautiful.....Walnutish looking wood

I see the PRE OLD SCHOOLERS are still going strong .GOOD work guys stay SAFE & GOD BLESS

Oh my goodness...what a beautiful beautiful grain and color that wood has.!!!! The conditions these guys have to work in...my my. My hats off to these men...that is some very hard and dangerous working conditions.

Que barbaridad!..Sin reglas de seguridad básicas y sin equipo mecanizado que puede hacer estas operaciones. Increíblemente bárbaro!

Dude worked all week to buy that pack o smokes..let em smoke. Forklift? We don't need no stinking forklift! Ha. Happy and glad to be working. God bless.

Guess they don't have to worry about machines taking their jobs ! All work together well and get it done!

Ini kayu trembesi pak? Kl jati da jarang yg diameter segitu... Oh iya... Itu pekerja tolong dikasi masker kesehatan sama sepatu boots. Kasihan pak

Great video, thanks for sharing! :-) May I please ask you on why you move the trunk manual when your motor could have done it? Also, why do you push the cart by hand instead of using your motor?

MANUAL LABOR!! Ingenious design.

I saw in Viêt Nam saw mill they got a kind of jack ( lumber jack) very clever and very effect to move heavy log like your place , your guy should not work hard and dangerous like that . My concern .

they have a winch and blocks.... a simple A frame would allow them to use it like a crane to lift and pull log into place.

Joss super mantab kayunya👍👍👍

Goodness gracious ! It’s hard to believe that it’s still done this way in some countries. I sure do feel for these guys

Beautiful wood. Everyone working knows what to do before it even begins and all seem to work well together. Are they cutting the approximately 4" slabs for big tables?

Gotta love the protective foot wear.

Beautiful wood!

real Roman style! I like it👍that’s how we used to work 100 yrs ago, and nobody gets hurt!!! Team Work!

A friend of mine moved to Florida worked for a mason contractor at the end of the street there were about six men sitting waiting for someone to get fired to take his job ! No kidding

Spending a few thousand dollars on some log and slab handling equipment, like rollers and winches would make the worker's jobs so much easier, safer and faster.But I guess it is more profitable to just buy a new worker when someone gets injured. In the US, only the smallest mills have hydraulics to load logs and rotate them to the proper orientation for sawing. And there are very few without at least a winch to pull the carriage past the blade.

Setelah di belah aku suka sekali lihat warnanya, abstrak, natural, si tauke pasti senang karna bisa untung besar, apalagi klw kolektor tahu pasti berani beli tinggi, karna sy tau harga kayu seperti itu sangat mahal sekali, bisa mencapai puluhan juta rupiah per lembarnya, tingal bagaimana warna alaminya, klw ada yg menyerupai gambar, bisa mendekati ratusan juta rupiah, karna sy pernah antar bos waktu beli kayu sperti itu

Waooww. Salut sama bapak"kuat banget semangat pak

Who says you can't work, get a workout in and take a smoke break all at the same time. Gotta love the effort and ingenuity.

Kayu akasia,,klw orang jawa nyebutnya trembesi....salut untuk pakdhe" yg masih semangat untuk membelahnya....

That is some dense hardwood & it's worth big money. I'm already dreaming (and drooling) about all the furniture that I could make with it. For those of you out there who've got the same "bug" you'll know exactly what I'm talking about.

This is team WORK very synchronized

I wonder how good their safety record is? I didn't see anybody missing fingers or limbs and there weren't any extra limbs laying around, so that's a positive thing!

I love the way that the guy in the blue hat covers his mouth to protect himself from the dust , but smokes a cigarette all the time!

Тяжёлая работа! Главное что дружно люди работают! Все вместе! Красивые доски, хороший заработок. Удачи! У меня тоже пилорама, но проще и слабее. Получил удовольствие от просмотра и командной работы.

Guess in the Philippines if a man get cut in half there are 3 standing in line for his job.

1st 6 min,I LMFAO!But gorgeous wood!And that poor truck,what tales it could tell............

The “steel toed sandals” (obviously joking) would make the safety labor unions have an aneurism here in the states. Oddly enough I don’t see any of these gentleman with missing digits or severe injuries. Just goes to show that having common sense is perhaps the most important part of this dangerous job. I wish good health and all the best to all the heroes involved with this endeavor. Much respect!

Biztosan szép bútor lesz belőle.Az erezte csodálatos.

could make a pretty table big enough to feed the whole village!

Can’t help but wonder what those men would do and think if they saw one of our modern sawmills that is all run by machines and computers.

Hard work. Respect from Canada

Very talented people are the Indonesians ,their furniture making is 1st class . 300 years ago the Dutch encouraged them to come to Cape Town South Africa to do carpentry and joinery , the descendants are still there . Maybe do a video on joinery and wood carving Arienpeople .

Jadi ngiler liat kayu smpe galihnya item gitu.

Endonde es que hacen ese trabajo duro dificil y peligroso ,y como es que son capaces de trabajar descalzos o sin zapatps apropiados La verdad que mis respetos para ellos

Great veneer wood, floor material. Wood has a lot of character.

OLE BOY IN DA FLIP-FLOPS IS SOMETHIN' ELSE!!!🤣🤣🤣

Very hard and dangerous work, people 0 proteccion.

Hati" om klow kerja.. Ngeri liatnya..

The real life expendables, that is some cheap labor force and I'am thankful for being born here.

Saran untuk mempermudah,coba untuk memasukkan log dari belakang graji,terus yang depan geraji kasih meja(pondasi semen)buat wadah hasilnya, efektif dan efisien.salam dari rembang

Great work but toooo funny, suckin on a dirty old smoke stick but then put scarf over face to not inhale wood dust, hahaha.

kebiasaan orang indonesia kalo kerja sambil ngrokok;D

I take my hat off to the work of these men and greet you from the heart of Germany! I would like to help!

I dream of having a table top like that beautiful slab of middle wood .And it makes me want to carve beautiful things when I see fine wood like that .I didn't know it took so much work to achieve that fine wood though.

I really hope they use sustainable harvesting practices there

Beautiful slabs but dagerurus and hard work they do!

And. Not a mechanised lift anywhere in sight! Incredible!!

8:17 UNBELIEVABLE! The guy smokes a cigarette surrounded by sawdust, but he covers his face to protect himself from woodchips! That's an interesting set of priorities!

OSHA would love this place!

Indahnya negeriku.. Negara lain sdh tdk pake tenaga manusia. Tpi di negeriku msh ada cara kerja model begini. Ya ampun. Hati2 Pak dee

I REALLY like the trucking, hopefully the ship yard is not far away.

The log turning was epic, it should haunt any qualified Rigger`s dreams. LOL

Да уж! Тяжёлый труд и убитая техника.

Saya salut di indonesia kayu raksasa di grgaji sama sawmill manual klu di eropa udh sistim mesin automatis di tinggal penct tombol . indonesia hebat 💪💪💪👍👍👍

Wong jowo pancen elok tenan....kualitas kayune yo josss 😍

What a primitive machine is this! People has to push the log, Indeed amazing!

People here in the USA see this and say. OMG that’s no way to work people. Well how do you think all the very old still standing buildings were done? Not like today’s crap that maybe will last 30 or 50 years. Nothing wrong with hard work. They use what they have and do it with pride and mill some of the best lumber you will ever find. To many so called men have gotten so soft and afraid to work without some Hightech mechanical item doing all the work. Yes that mill is old and maybe older then most of us watching this video Well why do you think it’s still running? Because it was made by real men, not the now a day fat belly soft hand wimpy man of today. So pull your panties up and do some real work

That is very beautiful wood. I'd love to have that (yea that wide) put in the flooring. Just wished I had a house to put it in. Must cost a lot of money to get such wood.

That wood is absolutely beautiful

2 things come to mind when watching this video: 1) Why don't they have an automatic blade watering system? Would that really be so hard to install? (instead of the guy getting dangerously close to that blade to lubricate/water it) and 2) Why would the one worker be covering his face with a rag, to keep from inhaling (whatever) fumes might be present at the cutting point, when he's SMOKING A CIGARRETTE??? LOL

The question is , how much for this entire log cut , shipped to Davao city , Mindanao ? In u.s.d.

AND SMOKIN' TOO !!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Good job . love this

After watching several of this type of videos, I still haven't found out what it is that they are lubricating the blade with. At least that's what I'm assuming they're doing when brushing that fluid on the blade as it rotates. Or possibly cooling the blade? Anyone know what it is?

Foreman: rubber boots Journeyman: flip flops Grunt: bare feet Your opium dollars at work. OSHA loves these guys. Never a claim to be found. Never a penny to pay out in insurance. Crushed toe, can't work? NEXT...See ya! Hand chopped off in century-old machine? NEXT...See ya!

You don't realize how good we have it until you watch a video of guys in barefoot moving big slabs of wood around by hand.

i really appreciate the work these guys do, to much criticism about conditions, with the automation suggested putting someone out of work, however that does not take away from safety concerns

I wished I had nailed boards on the end of my 2 inch walnut boards. They split like crazy.

QUANTO DESPREPARO SERVIÇO SUJEITO A ACIDENTES

Lovely superb Nice sawing and grain of the timber is very good.

Talented, hard workers! I cannot believe some work while bare-footed! Poor guys -- I bet their bodies are sore at the end of each day.

prrrrreprrrrriii naa naaa bugiey bugiey qwauk qwauk canoo canoo!!

Do you ship to US? Looking for a live edge 1 slab table...

i feel sorry though for that clapped up little truck. wonder how he will pull off all these heavy boards...

Madness. All I can think of is slipped discs, crushed feet plus regular deaths and amputations, and that hardwood's destination? Likely Japan where it's used for concrete shuttering!

Kayu apa yah,.? Gde banget, Smoga yg kerjanya selamat ..💪💪💪👍👍👍

Poor vehicle
