Sawmill School - Making Your First Cut on Your Sawmill
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Expert-sawyer Dave Boyt is going to show you how to make short work of a burly log - turning it into 78 board-feet of smooth, straight, valuable lumber in under 30 minutes.
If you're just new to sawmilling, this video is a great tutorial to give you more knowledge, and more confidence, as you start on your sawmilling journey.
Once you see how easy and rewarding this is, you’re pretty much going to be done with big box stores and their wobbly, twisty, splintered lumber.
We always value hearing from you. Please call us if you have any questions, OK?

I'm 70 years old and got a saw mill 2 years ago. I love using it. It's very rewarding to make something useful out of a tree someone wanted to get rid of. I get a lot of trees free from the tree service companies near me. One thing I do after I put the log on the sawmill with the forks is I then park my tractor with forks facing the mill just a few feet away from the mill on the side I unload the cut boards. That way I can just lift one end of the board over to the forks then the other and not have to carry the boards or bend over. I put the good boards on the fork towards the tractor and the one I need to edge cut in front of them. I slide the bark slabs off to the ground on the side the sawdust it shooting out. When finished I just drive the tractor to the drying area to unload. I then come back with the tractor and use the forks to pick up the slabs and move them to where they will be chipped up or used for firewood. This method saves my back, minimizes the work, and allows me to handle boards 2" thick or more and up to 16' long. I hope this helps someone enjoy milling as much as I do.

Great video, I have a lumberlite 24 that I bought used several years ago. I set it up on homemade track 40 feet long permanently mounted with steel posts in concrete every 8 feet.

I saw the same way you did in the video with pine which is pretty much all I have available and it is a great technique for my purposes.

Sounds like you're going to have one sweet sawmill! Let me know how it's going.
I really enjoyed this video. I love watching milling, it is something that just feels good. I grew up doing everything from rough carpentry (barn building) to framing, to cabinet building, and so wood working is just a big part of my life. I have helped with milling on a large number of occasions. It is enjoyable, and I hope to buy my own mill and start this year.

With your experience, it'll be a piece of cake. If you worked with a circle mill in the past, you'll be amazed at how much easier and safer the band saw mills are.
Excellent, very well explained. Enjoyed watching the video, looks like fun. Thank you

Thanks. Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions for future videos.
Enjoyed this video and the safety video. Please do a video on quartersawing. I've been researching sawmills and Norwood is one of my finalists. Hoping to buy my mill very soon!

Well, as they say, "good judgement comes from experience... and experience comes from bad judgement".
