Thanks to the camera person who showed the different view of the saws plus the outfeed process and rolling the logs to other faces.

@nicloewenhagen5557...I agree, one of the other channels does come across as less than professional and childish.

Impressive log. Crazy wide boards coming off 2 at a time. Its always aggravating when you get a big log opened up and discover there isnt buried treasure inside. Lol. Nice video

I haven't seen poplar that big outside of Spring Mill Park! You subscriber numbers will grow. You have the best sawmill operation on KZfaq.

I have nothing to do with the timber industry other than being an end user but watching this process is oddly satisfying.

That's a big ass log. The building must have shook a bit when it hit the carriage blocks.

I have never seen this type of mill, impressive that you cut dimensional boards out while milling. Seems more efficient.

@marcchatterson-xq7qt 4 ай бұрын

Just a little more waste with a vertical edger being the head sawyer and edger operator you got a split second when coming back with the carriage how your going to edge that board They are great setups a lot of different companies offer the same thing helle or cardinal for exemple. Helle has a new one that has presets for the edger which is pretty cool

Never seen a poplar that big!

@Helmsburgsawmill 6 ай бұрын

I’m not going to lie. I’ve seen and cut poplars larger. Maybe not in circumference. But some of the sticks have been close and over 50 ft long. I recently slammed a White Oak much larger. And yes! Central Indiana! The best hardwood in the world

Love your videos........but you need to switch to a bandsaw if you continue with the extra large logs!

Curious what your top and bottom saw motor horsepower is?

@marclangevin9152 6 ай бұрын

Just found this chanel and this is the second video .i've watched. One thing I noticed .Is the sawdust on the floor and everywhere. A real fire hazard. Do you ever do a cleanup ?

@Helmsburgsawmill 6 ай бұрын

Every day. And the motors get blown out as well.

@charleshodge6202 4 ай бұрын

What is the diameter of the top and bottom main blades?

@beyondmiddleagedman7240 6 ай бұрын

I'm sure it's been asked, but why the green lighting on the feed side?

@Helmsburgsawmill 6 ай бұрын

Oh I assure you it just appears that way on video. When you’re actually underneath of it, it just seems like a bright light tbh.

@ShannonFreng 3 ай бұрын

What would cause the blades to lean and why in differing directions?

@Helmsburgsawmill 3 ай бұрын

The blade being sharp makes it lean in. And the saw being dull makes it lean out. The feed rate also makes it lean in more

@arkansas1336 6 ай бұрын

Doesn''t seam to be an ideal diameter size but I still throughly enjoyed the milling.

@Helmsburgsawmill 6 ай бұрын

I agree! Tbh I just wanted to do it for the video. We can make more money sawing better smaller logs all day long

@BobBauguess 6 ай бұрын

Why does the two blades not line up ?

@Helmsburgsawmill 6 ай бұрын

I explain it in a couple past videos. The top of the bottom saw leans into the log. And the top saw leans out. It’s not near as bad in smaller logs that require the top saw. Remember everything that comes off of the saw will more than likely get plained and finished out
