Range Road 5022 Sawmill. Making lumber from a Fir log
Making a few boards from a Douglas Fir log. Not sure how much lumber we got but it'll go toward the garage addition and the greenhouse. Another video will follow of the 2nd log from this tree.

He does like his meter stick :)....though he cracked it off last month :( Good point about standing on the left side, never thought of that, thanks.

I'm sure you are making good use of it.
Great Job! the blade cuts like it was going through butter. I was wondering, do you use water or windshield washer to keep the blade cool? It looks pretty cool where your are.

Thanks. I think that was actually a blade that skipper sharpened, worked out good This time of year we use windshield wash.
How well built is your mill
Would you recommend this mill? I have a small concern for the 10hp.

Hey. Yes I would recommend it. For what we mill 10hp is plenty. That said, we seldom mill anything over 12”. Even the few times we had 20” logs, with a nice sharp blade we had no problems. If you read any of the milling sites and forums everyone there is saying get the biggest mill and biggest engine available…..but for us, the size of logs, the quantity we make and the speed we want to make it, the range road 5022 with 10hp is perfect. Hope that helps.
