      Lol, in seriousness, when a broad is cut it might bow due to resistance. When I started working in the mill I thought the lumber dried enough to bow. Then I moved up in the mill, after the out feed of a saw. I'd see broads get cut off a square cant/ block come out the other end ready to be the bowel of a ship.

    I quit school and took a job at a lumber mill, being not a large guy I failed the green chain and was put in the planer and molding mills, best decision of my life I was able to buy a fancy car etc at only 18 years old, of course school is good but a guy working hard is also good i have great respect for the people who saw the wood we all use, its hard work no matter what department you work in.

    I've said it before, Mark. But your thorough experience really shows up big time when you saw a large log like this. Cut by cut, you make the best decisions on the best way to process the logs. You get the most out of them, with little waste. Good job!

    Have a great story to tell ! A old time farmer had a round potbelly stove that he heated his house with but he had a great idea to wrap the stove with heavy duty copper pipe pipe several inches from the stove insides thus heating the water running through the copper pipe that in turn heated the whole house with the hot water running through the pipe ! He even though he thought of using steel pipe since he was a boiler maker and using steel pipe and wrapping the boiler with old radiators that he removed from old houses that he removed from old houses ! But that would need to do a lot of welding to wrap the boiler with steel pipe !so he wrapped the copper pipe with manny coils of copper pipe he used a full coil of about 100 feet of water pipe used for underground water service to houses ! It heated his house and it worked great !burning wood instead of gas or oil or coal !

    Mark L'm glad I built a custom band mill that I can saw a 36 inch log by 21.5 feet + long! Some times I thought I wish I had made it for 48 inch; until I think about turning that size log at 74 years old and 130 pounds! Of course I did get a 4500 hundred winch and made it so it mounts on mill to turn bigger stuff! Have fun and keep making sawdust!

    I grew up working at my father's sawmill in early 60's until 1970 when he got a town job. We lived in West Central Indiana in Parke County Indiana. The county still has 31 covered bridges. The sawmill was a four head block Sinker Davis Sawmill made in Indianapolis. With some maneuvering, it was possible to saw a 26' log. It was amazing to see the amount of automation at this mill, especially the log turner and automatic log dogs. My first job at the mill was skidding logs and positioning them on the mill skids. I used a big Massey Harris tractor with a front loader. I also used a small Oliver dozer. The little dozer could push a lot more than it could pull. The mill also had an edger where we could length wise trim slabs and bigger pieces into different board widths.

    Love to watch this mill running. I also love the saw marks on a board. Band saw doesn't leave that circular mark. When I make anything, I make sure that I don't sand or plane them off. Looks older that way. Any old lumber almost always have these marks on them. Just a fun time watching this mill.

    I'm 70, but as I watch this, completely transfixed, I'm back to being 9 yrs old, watching powerful machinery do what it's designed to do. Making huge wood cuts like a hot knife going through butter. I've never seen wood go through a saw at, like, 5 mph. This, of course, is no longer new technology, but it sure the hell is impressive, nonetheless!

    I grew up watching my grandfather and dad run a head rig with a circular saw like this. After that mill closed I worked in a big mill with 2 band saws on head rigs and a third band saw cutting the cants into usable lumber. We never cut pine into 8 quarter only 4 quarter. Brings back fun memories.

  • @crushthis123

    Holy! my home made gauge adds the width of the blade and the lumber size and accounts for every cut, and I always get 1 inch strapping first, and after I square it up i get exactly what I planned with my home made gauge. You can make your own easy. And the only waste I have is saw dust. Also I start by canting the small end over, and that is my first cut and everything after is exactly 90 degrees to it. As long as your having a good time and as a rule. I like to have a totty as well to warm me up on them fall days when the bugs are gone. I also noticed how many friends like to bring their logs to my house and buy me a beer lol.

      I've worked in a hardwood mill since I was 19. I'll be 61 in December. Have run the head rig (47 foot band with optimized scanner) for the last 26 years. Starting to think I've had enough.

    I was a sawyer from the time I was 18 years old until I was 29.
    My boss would have my kick my butt if I took that many shims to get to the cant
    that I needed to cut multiple dimensional lumber.
