AMISH SAWMILL!!!!

Фильм және анимация

Amish Sawing a big Maple log!! Sawing logs is what they do and this log is a little bit bigger than what they usually cut...that’s what makes the video a little more interesting!! Finally got a video of Amish sawing up the log that Mike cut a little while back!! Sawing up this huge maple was not an easy task!! The boys did an Awesome job of turning it into fine boards! This mill is run by a 150 HP Perkins Diesel! Seeing this mill was a blast for me, especially with this mighty big log!! I did have to cut it twice with the Husqvarna 576 XP G!! After that the boys were able to saw it up!! This isn't no wood mizer!! This big log can't stop the guys from getting the job done. Sawing timber is there specialty. Man can these boys work!! The wood looks beautiful comping off the saw!! They got about 500ft off this maple log!! Logs to lumber!! These boys are extreme! Snow, rain, hail, they just keep sawing logs! Extreme Sawmill! it took us a little while to get things rolling because they don't usually saw logs this big. If you look at the other logs at the mill they are much smaller. This was a special saw log for us because they wanted to saw the beast!

    Been there, done that, got the t shirt. Had an old saw on the farm, older then the one they are using. The term we would use is tree butcher. Just because your Amish doesn't mean your good at everything, just means your blessed.

    the thing is, we don't know what this log was cut for. We can't tell exactly where any of the bad wood sits. We don't know what the sawyer's limitations are - though it's clear this is a big log for the saw. We don't know what the owner of the log wanted. We don't know much about this particular log and cut... Not knowing much doesn't stop some of us from spouting off though.

    These guys are operating modernized machinery and do not pay any taxes for their enterprise. So where do you draw the distinction between Amish and everyone else? When I was growing up in Ohio in the seventies my dad sold JD construction equipment to an Amish clan in northern Ohio who had 220 volt wired to their saw mill, but prided themselves on not using modern conveniences in their home! Go figure!

The buggy ride to the store is always interesting. The "English" as they call us get a lot of looks when you pull up at the grocery store in a one horsepower 4-wheeler. Some of the nicest, down to earth and funniest people you will ever meet.

    Same here worked my first job as a young man from 14-16 at the sawmill at the end of my road. We also had to stack them 25 pallets high so after they were built you’d walk them over to the loading site and stack them neatly one on top of the other until you were having to throw them up into the air over your head to get on top of the stack. Great experience and made some muscle lol

    There are all kinds of Amish that practice their own way of life. I have worked at a sawmill very similar to this one and believe me it is hard work when you do the way this family does it. The mill I worked in was built in 1924 steam powered and the cutter was unhappy with the fireman who couldn't keep up steam. I was interested in steam and got selected by the cutter by simply asking me can you keep up steam? Yes I replied and started firing the boiler, the fellow I replaced told me I was firing too heavy to which I replied you need to build up your fire so that power is available when needed and I did. I only lifted the safety a couple of times an hour. In between firing I would refill the oil cups on the engine and jack shafts to keep them properly oiled. The cutter told me I had a job for the summer as I wasn't family but took a liking to me and my appreciation of the old ways of doing things. I had a blast that summer in 1965. This brings back a lot of memories. I was 15. Cheers

    Been using a Lucas mill for the past few weeks and love watching all these saw mill vids. Just did a bunch of slabs and milled a bunch of 1x 2x 4x and 6x. Not much waste. If you have a lot of trees to mill that have a fair amount of good wood, you arent so picky about the waste. But if your hard up for trees like where I am then we try and get every bit out of the tree. So if the Amish went thru the trouble to build that saw mill and saw mill bldg., then chances are they have a lot of wood supply to choose from. No one builds a mill like that to let it sit there and collect dust.

It's been sitting for close to 15 years now. These were and still are fast mills. They have become very unpopular due to the blade's kerf. I was throwing away a 1x in sawdust every two passes. These guys in video are definitely production guys, hence the fact they're not so conservative with this log. Judging by their saw yard stock, they may just cut railroad crossties for a living.

    At first I'm scratching my head on how they are ripping it down thinking it is wasteful but as they progress it all makes sense as they end up with a lot of good lumber out of that log for their needs. They know what they are doing with the tools are their disposal, thanks for the vid!

    Doubtful they’re Amish. More likely they are Mennonite. That’s just a guess though. Amish not only don’t let you film but also don’t use power tools. These fellows had the mill and also the crane and that’s just what I picked up in the video.

    Cockroach: That is TOTAL BS! These ARE Amish. Most contemporary Amish are allowed to use power tools, computers, cell phones, at their work. When they go home, it's a different story. It really all depends upon what the local "Bishop" says. I live in PA among many "plain" sects, including Amish. I deal with them at times. They cut ornamental lumber for my house. They sided my house. They built my shed. They cut trees for me. In turn, I allow them to hunt on my land, fish in my pond, and pick berries for themselves. I DO get some of the best jam, and apple butter, and baked goods from them. You just have to know how to deal with them and have some respect for their traditions. Such as; always ask if you want to give their kids some candy or something. Mostly it's "Tsure, he likes that, nah", or "Machts nichts" (it doesn't matter).

This type of work needs both skills and some people used to cooperate. Also, my Swedish hart melts, seeing that Husqvarna saw! Having 2 of my own. 😍 Sending some love from Sweden! Keep up the good work and spirit! Just keep on doing what you do, not letting anything stop you.

    you guys talking about this guy making firewood and ruining this log, and making all this waste, obviously buy your lumber strictly from home depot and do not understand how hardwood is milled. It gets milled in stages from rough cut (this video) to S4S (surfaced four sides), like what you get at Depot. And if you watched to the end, all those off cuts were brought back so the sawyer could get every inch of material out of it. This guy did a phenomenal job. The only waste I saw was the pith and where the log was squared up. Awesome video, and thank you.

    Elias maendel: Yes the Hutterites are the most modern Anabaptists. The 3 kinds of Hutterites are the only Anabaptists that live communally, with very minimal personal property. Others in the Anabaptist general grouping are several kinds of Amish, River Brethren, Mennonite & a few others. There are liberal varieties of some of these. They may as well be Lutherans. The others are varying degrees of conservative, which is closer to what the faith was supposed to be, with strong biblical guidelines.

    Worked an old mill just like this, 52 inch blade, at first it was powered by a vw, then a 2.4l nissan, and finally a 300 straight 6 ford, and thats how she stayed until the old man died. I'd love to build one of these in my yard someday. But I'll probably build a lighter bandsaw mill instead. For now I'll keep using my alaskan. It's not as fast, but it's great for bringing home slabs.

    I think that may be why some people have commented that this doesn't look hard and the diesel is doing all the work, etc. He is making it look easy. Also; and I see this in every comment section from a sawmill to a cordless drill, people rambling on about safety to a point that it has become ridiculous. First let me say I'm all about doing things as safely as possible and not taking chances, but there comes a point where you're so safe you just cant do anything but wait for your heart attack. It's lead me to a theory on us reaching a new mark in evolution. Upright man, tool man, and now safety man. Bicycles and playing outside is too dangerous so our kids stay on the couch overweight with diabetes while the parents work half their day to pay for the health insurance to cover the kids diabetes. From insurance on everything to 3 layers of eye protection so we cut our fingers off because we couldn't see anything. Safety to the point it's a whole new personal and economic danger.
