    I was buying two blades at a time from Wood Mizer at $25 a piece plus $22 shipping. Then you made reference to South East Metals so I checked them out and ended up buying a half box. The savings was fantastic and I'm very pleased with the cut I'm getting. My sawmill is home built, works great but needs tweeking every so often. Thanks for the tip.

    Taking a look over at semetals, I see that they have two brands for your saw (158") - going on the price, it appears that you got the Kasco brand, vs. the Simonds brand they also sell. Glad you found blades which are about $10 less expensive per blade vs. the OEM Wood-Mizers. Time will tell - with those prices, it makes it easier to feel good about selling off the sharpening rig you had. Have you seen some folks make their own home-made sharpers for those blades? That would be a fun project for you... if you were ever so motivated and had the time. Two commodities which are in short supply, I'm sure! Thank you for all the great camera angles. Very professional results with your videos and a pleasure to watch! The little guy is growing up so fast! A lovely family... 👍

    It depends on each individual log and imperfections but for basics the intention is to create a useable face just inside the bark. That on average at least 4 inches of surface but better 6 or more. The idea is to get the most out of a log without waste while milling economically.

    Great video! I've noticed that it seems to be the 'in thing' for many youtubers to make Wood-Mizer look bad. Wood-Mizer is an American company, owned by Christians, so... I'm a sawyer, and I know the complaints and hinted-at problems with the sawmill is exaggerated or even fabricated. The channel Out of the Woods is sometimes entertaining, but one of his videos where he showcases how 'fast' the Wood-Mizer is, he goes *super slow*, and thus misrepresents Wood-Mizer's great product. Pure Living For Life is another who basically misrepresented the sawmill. There are others also. OK, rant over.
