Now that old boy has it down to perfection. I really like the hydraulic drive on the carriage. Great video !!

Tractorman44 yeah! My dad built most of the mill, for the operator in the vid. A neighbour. I’m using much of the wood sawed on this mill and some from our own personal one to build a little house :) good times:)

Jim - the fellow in this video - has passed away a couple years ago. My dad Bob is the fellow that helped build the mill. It was built so one individual could operate it on his own. He made a whole lot of lumber with it.

That right there is a fellow who's daddy raised a man.

He is making me tired i going to go take a nap

I had a ccarriage from Japan , it would off set the carriage deck about 10 mm on the return so the saw never rubbed on the return trip , then would return to saw line when you started it forward , saves the saw . I sure like the control you have for your feed speed , sure a lot better than the friction belt system.

Very nice idea. Do you have any photos of how that works? Might be remodeling the mill pictured and that sounds like an interesting design change.

I don't have a photo ,but it worked by have a cam on the front and rear axel , took about half a revolution to move the whole carriage back from or to the saw line ,, there was a solinode that could lock the pull back out it case you had to back up while in the cut . The carriage axels used slip bearings , babbit bears would work , that allowed the carriage movement . The system worked reall good , except once when the sawyer oiled it so friction was lost , took about 20 bucks of baby powder the get rid of all oil on the system , you have hydraulics , two small cylinders would work .

That is the slickest one-man mill I have ever seen. What is the name brand?

@Hello Andrew how are you doing

I would love to know how he does that by himself like that

I like the idea of setting the motor up and out of the way. You must have an invisible sawyer or is the help in town? :-) Good work you are doing.

My dad built most of this mill for the sayer Jim, who is running the mill in the video. He runs the mill all by himself. I am the one taking the video.
