Careful with keeping on breathing that walnut dust. That chemical you mentioned is a "sensitizer" meaning that if you aren't allergic yet, you will be, and the allergy gets worse the more you are exposed to it. I have to wear a full respirator when I do walnut work in my shop because of lots of exposure over the years.
It's no fun. That's for sure. I also have a bad reaction to mahogany and I recently found out epay, which is hard as a rock and makes super fine dust as a result.
I was Exposed to Walnut wood working, and Breathing the Dust. But never had any problems at all!!! Alot of hand sanding, the Dust tasted Bitter!!! The wood we were using was Already Cured out real good. I never wore any Masks.
I've Never Been Allergic Or Bothered by """Anything""" Natural Especially Wood. Walnut Just Gets Into Your Sinuses And It Comes Out Of Your Mouth As With Sinus Stuff. Walnut Has A Bitter Taste To It!!! But Has never made me Sick. All woods Smell Good To Me. The Walnut Sanding Had Gone On many yrs ago. Only Man made Chemicals Are The Only Thing That I Dont Like To Breath. Anything All Natural Doesn't Bother Me At All.
I've had an allergic reaction to Redcedar on two separate occasions it first I didn't know what it was but when it happened the second time I started to be much more careful it's a shame because I love the smell
In the early 1960's I watched my dad build a beautiful book case, two end tables and a coffee table out of walnut. It was his favorite hobby and walnut was his favorite wood. To this day I love the smell of freshly sawn walnut and my wife and I cherish those pieces which reside in our living room. Thanks for this video.
It's great seeing you wearing hearing protection, but don't fall into the complacency that a lot of us older folks fall into when it comes to other protective equipment. Masks and respirators are a hassle and uncomfortable, but it's so much easier to keep your lungs in good shape than it is to fix them later!
When I thought about it I always wore hearing protection. I do only have very minor hearing loss for someone my age. I'm sure it could be a lot worse hahah.
Watching you 2 girls rolling logs is all i need to see to a subscriber. However, you all do such a great job i love the whole show. Please keep it up. Your channel is one of my favorite channels. Glad youtube showed it.👍👍👍
I used to cut and sell firewood. I had a couple of friends that were loggers and they would tell where they would be working and let me know when they were done. I would then go in and cut up the tops for firewood to sell. It was always hardwood, walnut, oak, hackberry, hickory (which I would also sell to a couple of guys who smoked meat) and red elm. I love watching your videos, thanks for making them.
Both of you are a PERFECT example that you don't need to take your close off to get likes... You two is what America is all about!! They want to come to America they need to do it the right way and get to working. Love you both!!
I agree with your statement of walnut being your favorite wood. Just watching it come off the saw a creamy pinkish color and turn to a rich, chocolaty brown as the oxygen hits the fibers is a favorite moment you never forget!
Another great job. I would never have thought I would enjoy watching logs being cut up so much. Creative camera shots, wonderful music, and pleasing and informative narration. Thanks for sharing this.
A word of caution from an old man who has been there and done that. when using the canthook on bigger and heavy logs; hook lower down so you are using your legs for the actual lift, your back will last longer. And always wear a mask if in doubt. some dusts build in your lungs and are not expelled. over time you will end up like me, on oxygen 24/7 with COPD. Take care ladies and stay healthy.
It was nice to see them with hearing protection. But I would hope they start wearing a mask all the time, use gloves, and wear shirts that tuck into your pants.
@Wayne Gilling. Amen to that. Like you I have copd and on oxygen thanks to dusty environments over the years. One of the bright sides in being housebound I can watch this hardworking,beautiful family as they share part of their day on CZcams.
Well didn't go looking for family owned lumber yard on CZcams, but here I am... Most Excellent channel have subscribed and liked. Hell even started ball rolling on the go fundme side , so come everyone lets chip in and lend a hand. reach your goal
Your passion for the wood is inspiring. Not many people have it. I once asked a retired craftsman woodworker to do some work. He wandered through his still extensive collection of wood telling me why he could not take on the job, caressing every plank and beam. Only my wife telling him about her father's love for wood and his furniture making career convinced him to build our staircase, a masterpiece.
Your camera work, music, editing, and narration are all so superb and artistic in your videos, especially this one. It probably would be good to wear masks or respirators to prevent the fine wood dust from entering your lungs over time regardless of the wood being cut. You don't want to end up with brown lung disease or COPD at young ages. Or use fans behind you to blow the dust away from you. What you can't see can still hurt you over time. My favorite wood is Poplar.
Also worth remembering that long lasting ‘hardwoods’ (some can be quite soft) have strong biological defences. Teak splinters are notorious for causing infections which is why British sailors preferred to fight a naval battle in a ship built of oak, as opposed to an ‘East Indiaman’ built of teak. We have a tree in New Zealand called the Ngaio (pronounced nyoh). Every part of the tree is toxic, to humans and animals (spontaneous abortions of lambs and calf’s were reported back in the 1940s). People who put Ngaio pieces through a chipper without wearing a respirator have been known to experience respiratory issues for several days thereafter.
@@michaelguerin56 That is incredible. So much valuable information is lost to history because people are being taught silly and perverted things in "school.".
I used walnut 5 by 7 lumber cut by a local mill to use as replacement window sills for historic buildings. I have one left after retirement to turn a few bowls. Another great video, thanks.
👍 thats what we do historical windows & doors we're both old enough to retire a few yrs ago currently we have enough work until we're dead but we love it
You do a awesome job on ur videos. Walnut wood is unbelievable. Have ya ever sawed any apple my neighbor sawed a big apple off my property and had a guy saw it up on a mill like y’all have and it was impressive
When I bought my LT40 six years ago, at the required training, I was told that folks I don't even know would be calling me about milling wood for them. I live at 4,000 feet right on the U.S./CA border in central WA. It's pretty quiet here, so I thought that that statement wouldn't apply to me. Also, I don't have a business per se, just kind of word of mouth, mostly milling for myself. A few local wood workers will buy some of my hardwoods, and neighbors will occasionally stop buy for some 2X construction lumber. Woodmizer was right. In six years I have yet to buy a log. Between property owners doing some timber thinning or clearing a building site and tree arborists giving me their butt logs that they don't want to mess with, I get all the logs I can mill as a solo sawyer. I call the logs I get from the arborists "yard trees" as that's where they come from. I've milled Doug Fir, Cedar, Aspen, Pine, Black Locust, Maple and Walnut.
Narration is incredible, work ethic by these young ladies is equally incredible. These video's should be mandatory in schools from 12 and older to show kids what the real world, real work consists of.
I so agree. I came across this video in my CZcams recommendations off to the side. Wonderful narration, editing and pacing to the story of a small family owned lumber mill. Please work safe around all those hazards!
I never knew any of this about Walnut. But I grew up in American SW desert where a tree was a rare thing. Love your family business. God Bless to y’all
Hi Emerald. I stumbled across your channel. I have found it oddly interesting. I say that because here in Kansas, we don't have any forests. I would like to offer a few suggestions. 1. Who started your operation? If it was your Dad, his imput on learning, and failures. 2. Have any of you been seriously injured doing this work? 3. How often do you have to replace your equipment? 4. And do you practice sustainable replacement of what you harvest? Just some ideas for future videos. Thank you for keeping this old man entertained
Your channel is awesome, I know zero about US family lumber businesses and your stuff is an eye opener, informative and fun to watch. I'm learning loads, like I did not know hemlock is a tree or even that its timber can be used for stuff. 👍and well done to you and your family
Your videos in itself are artistic. You gals are awesome and hope other young ladies see y’all breaking the norms of what women can do through hard work and be super successful.
These videos are top of the line! We run a Timberking 1400 mill at our shop with Set Works. I have not worked with Walnut Logs yet. Thank you for the education about the potential Walnut dust hazard. Great teaching video.
I'm hooked, found your channel by accident but wow, it's so great to see such a young family working so hard, I'm from the UK and like many parts of the world it's depressing to see just how many people can't be bothered to put in a decent days work, but you guys are all doing back breaking work with the timber, a lot of it manual, and although I have no idea what working with timber is like, it's clearly grinding and heavy work, wish you so much success for the future and good luck with the channel :)
Same here; I just discovered this channel a few days ago, have watched several videos and intend to watch them all. I have a smattering of experience with home made lumber on a Wood Mizer, and it makes me appreciate what they do all the more. Their total philosophical and aesthetic consistency is heartwarming. There's somebody who's living right! I love walnut lumber, but I live on the far northern edge of its range, so I work mostly with the very common poplar.
Really cool how you have figured out how to monetize by products like slabs and sawdust. When I mil or flatten slabs I always throw the chips and shavings down in the chicken coop. It’s amazing stuff, would love to have a local supply
Another amazing job explaining everything. Probably was a nice change to cut the walnut for your friend. You and your sister did a amazing job handling the logs. Keep up the great videos
Nice video 🙂 Family businesses are a great thing. I milled walnut to produce all the casing and baseboard for my shop. Cherry, oak, and sycamore too.😗 Thanks for sharing your day.
Yet another class act girls. On the sawdust, it doesn’t matter if the dust doesn’t bother you. There are quite a few species that are carcinogenic and that will not show up for many years. Best to take the precautions now rather than too late, don’t you think?
You may never know all of the heartache and pitfalls you have sidestepped by working. Manuel labor heals and cures. The great sense of accomplishments is great.
Wow, I learn little by little from your channel. I did knot know about walnut dust. Really enjoy these. I would love to invest in a mill myself, someday. Keep the content coming.
Love walnut! Last summer one about the size you just cut came down in a storm in the park behind my house and the DPW gave me some clear straight sections which I split into slabs and made some benches out of.
Great video M. Your videos are relaxing to me. I watched Wholesome , educational , adventurous , Videos. Your family is closely knit working in unity within the peaceful mountains of Pa. Heartwarming to watch. Thank you boss man.
you should be proud of yourself . My grandfather ran a couple Ireland mills in Otego, NY . in the 70s and 80s well 40s and 50s to , I have a young daughter and i hope they can achieve what your daughters have. . With that said i do have 2 younger sisters that do remind me somewhat of your daughters...
When I was in junior high school 2 brothers in wood shop built a complete bedroom suite out of solid walnut. This included all the interior blocking and bracing. I built a solid cherry single bed. It cost me $14 including the hardware. That was 60 years ago. One of the side rails got broken many years ago. That one cherry board that I bought to replace the broken rail cost me $40. Our government is doing us no favors by inflating the dollar.
Your doing a great job I like to saw bow up or like a rainbow up this helps me square up keep the great videos coming so proud of your family working together take care an besafe
Gosh I ve sawn Black walnut before and made things with it and never knew about that! Thanks for mentioning this in your video! In fact that is my favorite wood to build things with and cherry!
EB: Wonderful work, in content, narration and camera work. As much as I enjoy learning about your trade as sawyers, I think there is a more to be appreciated here. Clearly, there is a family unity at work for the business that really shows, although I am also a fan of Judah and Samantha, and some more of them at work could be a plus. I am extremely impressed with the abilities and contribution of all the women in the business - I know plenty of young men here in TX who don't have the character, work ethic or focus on larger purpose to do what you do - it speaks very well to how your family works. On the video presentation itself, there is an excellent quality of not being too sophisticated, which makes me feel like you know what's important in life, and you don't have time for fluff or pretense about who you are. And on this particular video, I found that I really enjoy this narration approach as much as the others where you are present in the situation and talking to us. All this gets a lot of respect from your viewing community. Great work Jade and Emerald, and thanks to the Boss for both his participation and for letting you publicize the workings of his business.
I got a chuckle from seeing the end of one log being marked "Bruce", since that's my name! I also had a 125 year old Black Walnut milled after it came down in a wind storm years ago, and had a good friend (An Amish sawyer with an LT40) cut it up for me! Overall, the continuing videos of your family business are inspirational, educational, and a joy to watch!
Poisoning of canines and horses by the black walnut is well documented. Black walnut shavings are a toxic bedding for horses. The innermost wood of the black walnut causes toxicity after oral or skin contact. Bedding containing as little as 20 percent fresh black walnut shavings made from old or new wood can cause toxicity. Look it up.
I had made a few small cabinets from walnut, I'm 65 and still don't wear any masks or hearing protection. I have been working construction up till about fifteen years ago. Found better money through yard and estate sales. Buying and selling.
Hi Emerald. I'm a new subscriber and a long time wood worker. I really would suggest using the masks for cutting walnut. The sawdust is so fine it gets everywhere. I don't wear a mask for anything-- not even CCA-treated wood-- but walnut? Yeah, I do. I haven't noticed any problem with breathing, but the oils in the wood also irritate the skin. So, no matter how hot, I cover up and wear a mask for it. I love the wood. It's beautiful and takes a finish like no other. But it is a irritating mess to work! Aside from that, keep up the good work. I love your videos and I like the idea of a log yard. Unfortunately I don't live somewhere with a wide variety of trees, so I don't get so many species. But it looks like fun.
I'm a knife maker and have been using Bodark wood to make some of my handles it is somewhat irritating to the lungs and eyes and I've been told it can be irritating to the skin but it just stains mine an orange color for a little while. Would walnut be worse?
Good job girls. Walnut is pretty wood. Looking at those logs I hope you're not allergic to poison ivy. Take care and have a blessed week and I'll see you on your next vidja.
I saw you have a metavic log trailer, these are made not far from where i live, they make great product, it makes sense you have very nice equipment for you business, continue the great work !
I'd suggest getting a Lumber Jack, Tri pod single adjustable height roller for hardwood heavy boards (dement ion) save your backs. You Guys are Quite The Crew!
Walnut is so beautiful! I love to watch women doing this work because it shows that you can do anything that you set your mind to do! No, I’m a man and I’m am amazed at what you do. You are very good at explaining your work. I assume that Hemlock is a low cost softwood that can be used for building? Where I normally think of pine, spruce and Fir. Is that right? I’ve learned so much from you, thank you
As a father of 2 daughters, I just wish I knew your dad. He's done everything right.
@@NewCZcamsPg lol what?

I also have a bad reaction to mahogany and I recently found out epay, which is hard as a rock and makes super fine dust as a result.

They’re mostly working outside so they’re exposure is much less- if they were in a woodshop it would be way more dangerous.
When I thought about it I always wore hearing protection. I do only have very minor hearing loss for someone my age. I'm sure it could be a lot worse hahah.

Hi Emerald. I stumbled across your channel. I have found it oddly interesting. I say that because here in Kansas, we don't have any forests. I would like to offer a few suggestions.

Walnut is not a carcinogen, trust me I’ve done my research. Any reactions to walnut usually happens within days. Thanks for your concern though 😁
That hydraulic nudging system is the bomb. No more wrasslin the big boles, just pop a lever and *boot* there it goes.
Fine looking walnut, it'll make some beautiful furniture for sure. I can't even imagine the cost of buying that many 6/4 slabs.
You may never know all of the heartache and pitfalls you have sidestepped by working. Manuel labor heals and cures. The great sense of accomplishments is great.

Clearly, there is a family unity at work for the business that really shows, although I am also a fan of Judah and Samantha, and some more of them at work could be a plus. I am extremely impressed with the abilities and contribution of all the women in the business - I know plenty of young men here in TX who don't have the character, work ethic or focus on larger purpose to do what you do - it speaks very well to how your family works. On the video presentation itself, there is an excellent quality of not being too sophisticated, which makes me feel like you know what's important in life, and you don't have time for fluff or pretense about who you are. And on this particular video, I found that I really enjoy this narration approach as much as the others where you are present in the situation and talking to us. All this gets a lot of respect from your viewing community. Great work Jade and Emerald, and thanks to the Boss for both his participation and for letting you publicize the workings of his business.
I got a chuckle from seeing the end of one log being marked "Bruce", since that's my name! I also had a 125 year old Black Walnut milled after it came down in a wind storm years ago, and had a good friend (An Amish sawyer with an LT40) cut it up for me!
Overall, the continuing videos of your family business are inspirational, educational, and a joy to watch!
Ducalin dust, poison ivy-oak vines wrapped around those logs!Check em with a metal detector.Change blades frequently with live edge logs!
Walnut is not toxic for animals or humans as was implied. You have to wear a good dust mask for any wood.
Poisoning of canines and horses by the black walnut is well documented. Black walnut shavings are a toxic bedding for horses. The innermost wood of the black walnut causes toxicity after oral or skin contact. Bedding containing as little as 20 percent fresh black walnut shavings made from old or new wood can cause toxicity. Look it up.
@@lumbercapitallogyard I was mistaken and you're right. Some people are also allergic.
You girls are absolutely adorable.
New to your page. I am impressed (not that my opinion matters) that you and your family work together. Even the youngest splitting firewood. Amazing!👍
Good one! LOVE the music!
Walnut is sooooo gorgeous!
I had made a few small cabinets from walnut, I'm 65 and still don't wear any masks or hearing protection. I have been working construction up till about fifteen years ago. Found better money through yard and estate sales. Buying and selling.
Isn't walnut beautiful? It is highly sought after for gunstocks. I am so glad you are wearing hearing, eye, and hand protection.
Good looking stuff...great video, thumbs up.
Hi Emerald. I'm a new subscriber and a long time wood worker. I really would suggest using the masks for cutting walnut. The sawdust is so fine it gets everywhere. I don't wear a mask for anything-- not even CCA-treated wood-- but walnut? Yeah, I do.
I haven't noticed any problem with breathing, but the oils in the wood also irritate the skin. So, no matter how hot, I cover up and wear a mask for it. I love the wood. It's beautiful and takes a finish like no other. But it is a irritating mess to work!
Aside from that, keep up the good work. I love your videos and I like the idea of a log yard. Unfortunately I don't live somewhere with a wide variety of trees, so I don't get so many species. But it looks like fun.
I'm a knife maker and have been using Bodark wood to make some of my handles it is somewhat irritating to the lungs and eyes and I've been told it can be irritating to the skin but it just stains mine an orange color for a little while. Would walnut be worse?
@@bobbyhempel1513 It can be. but not just to touch it. It's the sawdust that gets you.
Those are some beautiful slabs!
Good job girls. Walnut is pretty wood. Looking at those logs I hope you're not allergic to poison ivy. Take care and have a blessed week and I'll see you on your next vidja.
Mr. Ton sent me your way. I think it's so peaceful watch wood being sawed.
Walnut is definitely my favorite wood.
So good had to watch it twice!
walnut is a truly beautiful wood.
Y'all are awesome.
EXCELLENT job on this video.
I saw you have a metavic log trailer, these are made not far from where i live, they make great product, it makes sense you have very nice equipment for you business, continue the great work !
Great Job ladies!!

Those slabs are beautiful.
It is so amazing that you girls can do all that. I used to run a Crane. Norm
Great video. Keep 'em comin'
I'd suggest getting a Lumber Jack, Tri pod single adjustable height roller for hardwood heavy boards
(dement ion) save your backs. You Guys are Quite The Crew!
Walnut is so beautiful! I love to watch women doing this work because it shows that you can do anything that you set your mind to do! No, I’m a man and I’m am amazed at what you do. You are very good at explaining your work. I assume that Hemlock is a low cost softwood that can be used for building? Where I normally think of pine, spruce and Fir. Is that right? I’ve learned so much from you, thank you
Another great video!👍🏻
Thank you.....
