I sure will.

Glad you like them! I will be sharing more.

@@shadyoakssawmill7754 I almost sent a link to an asian saw mill. The board they found in this tree was too amazing to describe. Not to mention it was 30 ft x 6 to 8 ft wide. Those guys have no respect for the tools. They work in flip-flops and stick they're arms next to the running blade. I have a hard time watching them for long. Keep on keeping on neighbor. Love the show.

This is almost an obsession, I enjoy this so much and would love it if my grandchildren would get involved. But I don't think that will happen. I'm really glad that you enjoy watching and Thank You. A P "Tony" Ciardo Shady Oaks Sawmill

Thanks, I have been selling a lot of hay and trying to get more work done on the remodel of the house before I wind up sleeping on the sawmill, trying to keep my better half happy and my customers gets a little tricky at times.

@shadyoakssawmill7754 it's important to keep the wife happy.

I can use all the luck that anyone wants to send.

Negative to any metal the entire mill is grounded. I loosened a screw and slid a spade connector under it.

Ground to anything metal, the entire mill is grounded.

Agree it is a safety issue I'm sure but many times I would really like to make adjustments when the head is at the other end.

Me too. I still forget it doesn’t work off the copper strip and try to use it. Only to realize I have to back the head up. Kind of frustrating.

Thanks for the comment, there is something really different about Pecan it is really hard to describe and the pictures really don't do justice.

Thanks for the comment, we fell in love with the both of them. We started out with 5 strays and were able to rehome 3 but these 2 had to stay together they would not leave each other's side, and we were afraid they wouldn't make it without each other. It has been a very costly endeavor, but well worth it.

I'm currently looking for some Cedar Mill Logs to make more, I lost my Cedar Plot due to the passing of my contact and the family sold the property. As soon as I acquire more logs I will be cutting more.

Thank you, I would have watered but forgot to fill the jugs I will make sure next time they are full.

Thanks, Pecan is one of my favorite woods to work with.

You are correct I cut Osage Orange from time to time, (When I was a kid, we called it Horse Apple Tree).

@ I brought back a log from Oklahoma last year and milled it. Great looking stuff.

Thanks, I really like the setup; the only thing I need to do is to add 4 more exhaust fans down low when we get a south wind it tends to fight the fans so a mask is necessary. Along with milling I also use this area for planning lumber.

They work really great at times I need to mask up when the wind is strong out of the South. I will be adding another row at the bottom and in doing that I believe the South wind want be an issue anymore.

I really like working with cedar it and pecan are my favorite woods. Sorry about the video it was a lot longer, but the wireless mic batteries went dead and all you could hear is buzzing.

I'm like you I do everything myself and have to come up with ways to get things done without busting my tail, I broke my back in 1990, so I work really hard at working smart and not hard I'm sure you know what I mean. I was using one of my tractors to set it on the mill but that was still a chore, so I invested about $300.00 in a winch pullies and cable, now problem solved. Thanks for subscribing Tony.

Yes, I watch it all the time great channel.

Yes I subscribe to his channel and enjoy watching when I have time.

I really enjoy wood working it has always been a passion of mine. In early 80 I had my own company doing custom trim but it was tough trying to raise a family so in 84 I went to work for a water utility and retired this year after 40 years so now I spend my time milling or cutting hay.

The Osage Orange is what I called a Horse Apple Tree when I was growing Up it puts off a big round bumpy fruit.

That was a good one, no a great one.

I have people come to the mill that tell me they can smell the cedar as soon as they get out of the car. I guess I am so used to it I never notice the smell except when I am bagging cedar shavings for sale.

I have it setup so that the mill can be moved in and out as needed, there are times that I will have an order for 8/4 X 20' Oak and due to the weight of the Oak I have to pull the mill outside, not that often but on occasions. I installed exhaust fans that work very well to keep sawdust and exhaust fumes out. As for the hickory no plans just yet but I'm sure I will come up with something if I don't sell it first. I am really happy with the setup; I'm only a one-person mill (I broke my back in 1990) so I have tried to make things work specifically for me and so far it works well the only time it is a little difficult is when I'm cutting Oak, it would be nice to have some help. Thank You for the comment Tony Shady Oaks Sawmill

​@@shadyoakssawmill7754Awesome work

@@keithbonds947 Thanks

Thanks for the advice! I appreciate you subscribing. The exhaust fans do a really good job removing the dust at times I do have to wear a mask due to the wind direction not allowing the fans to work well.

Glad you liked it.

I do like it. I got it to make shingles and very please, it takes a little time, but I really enjoy it. I have a customer that was restoring a 150-year-old cabin in the town of Edgewood and wanted to put it back as close to original as possible, I can truthfully say it turned out really nice. I believe there are some pictures on my Google site www.shadyoakssawmill.com.

Yes they would.

I will do that thanks

I don't think you will be disappointed.

I hope to get to making some more soon I have been really busy the last few months fixing to retire from my 8 to 5 and spend more time with the mill.

@@shadyoakssawmill7754 Congratulations on retirement. The mill work should be enjoying to you

Radio is for me.😊

Thanks for the information.

Thanks for the comments

@shadyoakssawmill7754 your welcome. Great video. Question: Do people buy cedar shakes?

Thanks

Yes I do sell them

Never get enough music. UA-cam checks all these videos for copyright content, during their review they check to make sure that the song isn't copyright protected.

I forget at times that the music is going I tend to tune it out.

This was one of the first that I have found that was so well uniform

Thanks!

Thanks 👍 it has worked out well. Because it's pretty much enclosed I will be adding one set of fans down low to help a little more with the sawdust.

Very Welcome hopefully in time my videos will get better, I'm learning all this video stuff

😊

That was a customer order for 8 Cedar cookies that are going to be used for table decoration at a wedding. After they are cut I clean the bark off and sand them down, some customers want them natural others want them rubbed with mineral oil I'm guessing that depends on how they are going to be used whether it's for decoration or used as a charcuterie tray.

Yes, soon
