You guys are nuts! So much fun to watch, thank you! God Bless.

I just Apsolutly Love to See the finish product that you produce from the saw mill !!👍👊

Mike, Lee McCallister Jr here. I'am retired from the Air Force and Lockheed Martian here in Texas. Love all your video's.. Making a 20x20 workshop and I got a lot of good pointers. Although, I would of cut all the my rafters first and then set them in. But I do understand why you cut the ones you made. Lupita and I send prayers out to your family and we just love your grandson. He's a character. God bless, we live in Burkburnett Texas.

Thank you for your service. [I think "auto-correct" may have added an extra 'a' to Martin] ;-))

You folks are great, you do wonderful work together. My wife and I are like you two, we do projects on our 5 acres. We have been married for 53 Yrs. and still going. We enjoy your video's very much, keep up the great work.

Liked the birds eye view of the debarker in action. Now I get it. Thanks guys

Mike & Melissa - Another winner. Thanks for sharing. I see you have plenty of advice on how thick to make the purlins. Sometimes free advice is worth exactly what you paid for it. Blessings to you both, and to the family. Hi Hunter.

Thank you, it is looking good. God Bless.

Can’t wait to see that new golden puppy!!! ❤️🐾❤️

Another great video to end my day after work! Thanks for sharing and tell Hunter to hang in there we should be over this stay at home..

Here is one viewers opinion. I ❤️ the fan based intros and outros. It’s a nice seasoning to go with the main course. I’m sure the fans love seeing themselves. I’ve been considering doing one myself but I’m kind of a homely mutt so ... The rest of y’all keep makin em and sendin em. Mike says we need to balance the boat so more outros are needed at this time. Everyone be good and stay well. 😎👍👏

Hi Mike Another great video, I’m loving your sawmill. Keep safe. Steve 👍👍👍

Award winning video content as usual!

Thank you for the angle today on the wood mizer showing the debarking apparatus works. I had been curious about that.

MIke...You impress the heck out of me. So happy for you that you are so close to getting the he-shed done. A lot of the questions I have in getting mine started I learned from you thru the invaluable video. Never take this video down, as it will feed many guys answers in the future. I think more and more people are recognizing the need to burn wood and rely less on natural gas or propane. We burn 100% wood (about 10-12 cords) to heat our house in winter, and turned the pilot light off. Our furnace is about 38 years old, but in usage years is about 5.

Good afternoon Morgan's! Wood shed looks great! 😀

Really good stuff. Thank you for sharing your day.

Finally I am all caught up on your videos! The shed is looking good!

I, too, am fully amazed when my carpentry ends up being square :)

5/4 will likely work for you since your rafters are at 16"o/c . Looking good Mr. & Mrs. Morgan the Morgan Enterprise is taking shape . Be safe we are now into mud season in northern Ontario the fun begins

Rafter tie downs, pretty good idea. They have done a lot with roof vents lately. I was thinking a couple of spring loaded hinged roof panels like they have on the NASCAR circuit now, that flip open when they go into a spin and head down the track backwards so they don't go airborne!? Just a thought. The snow would still slide off. My mom used to make liver sausage when we butchered Hogs. She used the Head meat, that was boiled off the bone , the liver , and I think some other organs, with a little tender quick. Made into patties and fried with pancakes and eggs for breakfast! My mouth is watering, I miss it a lot!!!

Braunswager, with a slice of vidalia onion and some spicy brown mustard! Makes a PERFECT sammich! Melissa doesn't know what is good for her!

Enjoyed the top view of the wood mizer cutting

Love the camera angle seeing how the de-barker works.

Another great video and ty for another great angle of the de-barker working. I like to see how stuff works. ty from so. il.

Isaly's Chipped Chopped Ham AKA chipped ham. Cooked in a crock pot with Heinz BBQ sauce on a hoagie bun - nummy nummy. Pittsburgh would like to take credit for Isaly's but I found they started in Ohio. They made the original Klondike ice cream bar. This was the stuff of my youth, way before wings (chicken left overs). Wood shed - I would use 1 1/2" purlins. More screw engagement. Open sided shed on a flat field, on a hill - good chance for wind uplift (you did mention hurricane brackets on the rafter / beam interface). Hey - what is one more log to mill? More fun for Mike. Always look forward to the next video. Love the family and the wood lot management. Thanks and take care.

Woodshed is looking great!

I call it liverworst and eggs. Fry it mix in scrambled eggs. I'm with you Mike. Delicious!

great to see shed was square first up

Wood shed is looking great! Since you like to over build and make a wood tank use 1.5" that way it will match the rest of the building. I was thinking,.... Mike all those first cutoff from the logs with the bark just get the big chain saw out cut them in your normal length for splitting and just split them up, if you did not want to sell them use them for the fires you have at home.

1 inch is plenty , great video , hello to Hunter !!!!

Perfection plus! Enjoyed it!

Hi ,Mike. As an old-time sawyer from the last century, I like your learning curve on the sawmill. I have a tip that might help you. I noticed a large amount of mud or dirt on the end if your saw log. I would always get as much dirt/mud off the ends as I could to keep my saw teeth sharp (52" circle saw). That dirt dulls your blade just as quick as what is on the bark Just a thought. Best.

It seems so nice being able to mill your own wood right off your property. I'd stay down there all day if I had one.

Good morning Mike and Melissa. Wood shed is looking great. The 1x4 is more than enough for your prelims. The dimensional lumber purchased is only 3/4” thick and it is more than enough, especially with 16” centres. Wishing you and all the subs a fabulous day filled with happiness and love for your fellow humans! ❤️ from 🇨🇦

Braunschweiger and chipped ham are good stuff. I Iived in the Pittsburgh area back in the early ‘70’s.

WOW, a walk down memory lane. You mentioned chipped ham. I didn't think that there were any places left to get that. Since Isaly's went out of business. It use to be a weekly jaunt to Isaly's (Jeanette PA) to get some hand-packed Ice Cream, a pound of chipped Ham. and We would get some Klondikes. We would get some Italian rolls from a small mom-n-pop Italian store called DeLallo. DeLallo is now a huge market place. However, that was a lifetime ago. You can't get chipped ham down in North Texas. But we can still get our Klondikes. 🤣

Spoiler Alert Melissa - we have Chipped Chopped Ham in Ohio !! We have bought it since the 1960's. First at the Lawson's Convenience stores in the 60's, 70's and 80's and now we have the deli "chip" or thin slice the chopped ham meat. Anyway, I still vote for the "Downstairs with Melissa" channel name...Thanks, Charlie

Mike, With 16 inch on center rafters 1 inch purlins will suit you fine for a metal roof application. If you had gone 24 inches OC or a heavier roof material then 1 1/4 or 1 1/2 in. could apply to avoid warp and pitch problems.

Icelys chipped ham in Butler in the 70’s was great , of course i was 10 , eastern pa , no pop , soda lol , i still miss ELMERS roller skating rink , across from Butler High School , We lived behind it , walking distance , started skating when I was 4 , Troutmans Store in town , Kelly Cheverlet outside town ,

I would go to 1 1/2" for the purlins. I built a couple of buildings using 1" purlins when I had my sawmill back in the late 90's. I have had a problem with the screws getting loose over the years. I built some using the thicker purlins, and have not had the issue with them. Keep up the great videos.

Braunsweiger mayo and onion on pumpernickel. Thanks alot, now I got that craving to feed so I'm off to the store. hope they have it in stock.

Interesting camera angle above the sawmill showing the debarker at work.

Awesome topside view of the debarked in action. I'm with ya there Mike, I LUUUUUUUV BRAUNSCHWEIGER. In German we call it Leberwurst. Lots of mayo and muenster cheese. I better stop now, my mouth is watering.

i agree a nice view of it in action and I also like Braunschweiger

If the screws that hold the tin down go through the purlins, they will have tendencey to back out over time, and you don't want the sharp points sticking through to cause injury to someone. You may want to make the pulins a little thicker to prevent this from happening. Have a Great Day!

Mike I grew up on Brunswauger. Still love it on a sandwich with gouda cheese. God bless

It is not very visible, but it looks like the saw blade hits the log at the very top or even above where the debarker removed the bark. I almost never miss watching your videos every day. Very entertaining and or interesting.

1” is plenty, have a few buildings within this building design and live about 8 hours north of you, this will be fine. Stay safe guys...

Fried bologna and onions chipped ham, how about french fries dripped with brown gravy over them? A shout out to RC where have you been old girl!!! Thank you for sharing your video with us. Hello Hunter. Ed

Nothing better than a sandwich made from home baked bread,butter and braunschweiger.

Born and raised in Wilmington Delaware, and we had chipped ham as kids. It was great with Swiss cheese and mustard! Good morning, guys!!!👍

I love braunschweiger! A local deli here in Cincinnati sells braunschweiger sandwich called The “Findlay Market” it’s braunschweiger, on rye with mustard and thinly sliced red onions. That sandwich, a bag of chips, a pickle and a pop is $6. Let me tell you they lay the braunschweiger on thick.

Shed is looking good.

Good overhead shot of the debarker in action

Here in Columbiana county Ohio we have both chipped ham and steak salads with fries. Good food!

Chipped ham. My Pittsburgh parent always got it even here in Florida.

I would go with the 1-1/2" thick simply because you can...it's not like you have to save the wood...or you don't have it. Better to over build than under build. Great video M&M, thumbs up.

Good morning Hunter ;-)

Mike, all is good in Old Bridge, N. J. The baby is getting big soon will be talking. Pretty soon I’ll be getting the property upstate , just waiting for title search company to open up so we can finalize this.

Braunsweiger/liverwurst with mustard and onion, yum. Another treat w use to get - Hudson spiced ham.

Oh, Mike, I Love my Braunschweiger Sliced THICK Also!!! I just order it in 6-inch Chunks now. I got tired of them cutting it paper-thin every time I went to pick up my groceries. I'm from Cincinnati, defiantly a German Thing here! Back in the 90's I used to go to Robert Morris University over in Moon Township every year for their Commencement Ceremony. I would bring the PA System & help set it up with another person from my friend's Sound Enforcement Co...

Good Work. I used 1" Hemlock under my metal roof over 4x8" Hemlock Rafters on 28" centers on my timber frame barn roof. All is well seven years later.

Back when i was about 12 my dad got me hooked on braunschweiger on bread with a slice of sweet onion.

Mike, I like 1.5 inch as it gives more material for the fasteners to grip on to.

Another good one

Shed looks great. The amount of uplift in a high wind would surprise you. A open face shed is basically a parachute. Would be good to add some rafter tie down brackets.

Shed really coming along nice. Great benefit having your wood, sawmill and way of putting things together. Lot of enjoyable hard work.

Weather was down to 39 degrees this morning with sun shining. Got baby chicks hatching out this morning. . Got 3rite now . Don't know how many we'll get .

Go inch and a half for the perlins ,,, But by now you already know that !!! I cant wait to see the saw mill shed !!!

This is a nice touch the way that you include your followers to do the intros and outros as always another great video again thank you for being open with your friends

Braunschweiger on rye bread...yum yum!

good help you have...I mean the DOGS! No really, nice that wifey helps too!

With the rafters on 16 centers. It is not necessary for the perlines to be 1.5 . All you need is 1 inch screws to. 😊😊👍👍👍💝🌹🌹

I think your work ethic and craftsmanship are excellent. The wood shed looks great. For a while I had stopped watching your videos because I felt like I was watching advertisements for heavy equipment sales. Your obvious sales pitch at the beginning of each episode was annoying because I pay extra to Google for the Premium channel which deletes all commercials from its content, but, Your new format, minus the hubris, is appealing and very enjoyable. Keep up the good work... Peace and Blessings

Hi Mike, don't crib about the 1" purlins. The 1 1/2" wide are better and don't cost you a cent more anyway so go with the best and forget the rest. Great video.

As far as support, the 1 inch is more than enough. However it doesn't provide as much for the screw to bite...which becomes an issue down the road. My 2005 pole barn has spruce purloins (big mistake!!!) and started shedding screws at about 12 years of age. Barns I built before .... and after.... use green white oak, which when it dries put a death grip on the screws and have never lost a screw.

On one of my sheds roof, 4/12, I used 3/4"x 1" cuz that is what I got for free. And it has been in some 50mph+ wind and she be just fine👍

Hi, M&M. You are a daily visit for me. You usually do a music credit. Can you tell me who was doing the piano on this episode? One summer in high school I worked cutting pulpwood-ONE summer. That was hard work. We cut mostly pine, loblolly if I recall-it was 1965.

Hi Mike and Melissa’s Dino from New Zealand yeah I love your commentation what are you guys are building and doing stuff for Santa as well. I can’t wait to you guys start building your shed for the wood miser awesome I can’t really see it because I’m blind so it’s all good though cheers Melissa and Mike and family all the best

I don't know how your steak salad's are prepared, but steak salad is my favorite food (Thai Yum Neua). They have a good version in some of the Thai restaurants around here (Augusta, GA), but they're all good in Thailand. Maybe we can send you an intro from there after we're able to go back.

nice content ... I would've built a jig for marking the plumb line on every rafter, both for the top and bottom rake ... just sharing a thought, not criticizing ... the jig is made out of two pieces, one the same width as the rafters with the plumb cuts on each end and one piece twice as thick as the rafters, centered and nailed on the top of the first piece ... anyway ... thanks for sharing the build and the experiences ...

We all miss RC. God bless

I haven’t heard about chipped ham or goose liver since growing up 40 some years ago. One of the things Mom used pack in our lunches was a goose liver or chipped ham and mayonnaise sandwich. Mike, you are debunking the saying “jack of all trades master of none”. Seems like you’ve mastered everything you put your mind to. The wood shed is impressive! Lotta good advice in the comments! Watching from Ontario, Ohio.

This is Guy from Montreal .i come from the country and miss every minutes of it but the job is here the wife to your video is a sort of therapy for me keep the videos comming that’s my pills

Looks good

Shed Work now coming along. Noticed when you cut up your red pine, that a bunch of DIRT was on the end of the log and could possibly dull your saw!! Keep up the good work!!

Your drying shed is more square (squarer) than my house. Beautiful work!!

Mike, you might could use those first cuts to make hexagonal or hexagonal-ish planters.
