I was a heavy equipment mechanic for 45 years and on the road for 25. I loved it.

I worked most of my 48 years as a mechanic doing field work. I loved it. When people asked me what I did for a living I always told them that I kept the wheels of industry turning.

they certainly earn their money nothing is easy with plant

I'm glad things are looking up for you and you Cook's mill!

Why are running chains in that terrain , draggin small drag ?

A Stork delivers babies.. What does a Swallow deliver?? NO babies 🤣

They’re charging themselves for flight

Yeah 👍 you have gotten better at sawing with that cooks they make the best for the small operations if I was trying to make a lot of money and saw a lot of board foot I would invest in a Baker it's been used in big mills for years and it will saw a lot faster but they are a lot of money the one I would love to own has big band blade it makes the ones that we use look like rubber bands I remember that I worked in a mill when I was younger that had one and it would take a few hours just to sharpen one of them and we changed them out at the end of every shift that mill had a circle saw working on the far side of the band mill and were definitely going through a lot of logs we would take logs in 24 ,7 and we still had to wait on logs sometimes now the government won't let them run like we did back then there where a lot of loggers in North West Florida and south Alabama and Georgia and lots of jobs and they paid better than what they pay now I was clearing 3000 are better with my own truck and two Pitts but good job and have a great day and God Bless Y'all 🙏🙏👍

I'm sorry to hear about your issues with the AC36. Mine was the first Perkins Tier 4 Final engine sent out with the computer control for the engine. It has been completely trouble free. Any other minor issues I ran across were completely and quickly addressed by Cook's personnel. My hydraulics have no serious leaks and the support legs do not move. Mine will actually saw down to 3/4", but I only go to 1". I purchased my mill in January 2019 and picked it up in May 2019. I see many WoodMizers on UA-cam and online forums and there's not one made that I would trade even for.

Walnut is a very beautiful wood GTC

A pig?! I thought it was a turkey🤪

It looks like your final drive left the chat. That's going to be fun and very expensive to fix been there done that. looks like you're doing some pretty good work there . ✌️❤️🍺

Looks like about $25K in parts to me, and thats not Including labor. 😮

Beautiful! As Charlie Daniels said in his song "In America" "We're gonna put her feet back on the path of righteousness and then God Bless America Again!" And speaking of songs, this is a good time to listen to Johnny Cash's "Ragged Old Flag." As you said, we need to pray hard every day for our country, that we turn back to God and elect leaders that won't get in our way of doing so. HAPPY 4TH!☺

God Bless America and God Bless Y'all 😊🎉

Awesome

We have the same problem with ours. It really slows down production sometimes. If we have a good flat cut it’s helps a lot. But thinking of adding the pieces of on the bottom like you did

Logging equipment has come along way I have done that same thing that you are doing with a old bomb a deer and it took a while longer to do back then but we got er done God Bless Y'all and have a great day 🙏

We have the same mill. It’s been a really good piece of equipment for us. Might wanna tighten up that hydro belt a some.Congratulations on your mill Happy sawing 👍🏻

Do you run the mill full time?

I have read that pioneers found yellow poplars as tall as 190ft tall and 10ft in diameter in Ky and other parts of our nation when they were looking for places to settle. I've seen some boards in very old houses that were probably between 3-4 ft wide. Amazing! And imagine how long it took them to cut one down by hand and then turn it into useable lumber?!

We've seen old seasoned yellow poplar boards in late 1800's and early 1900's houses, that are still in great shape since they were protected being under roof, that are beautiful b oards

The live swivels leaking must be bad fittings, we use them on a bunch of equipment and don't see failures until 1000's of hours.

Miss you, love your videos

Awwww

I need a mushroom lesson😂

❤❤❤❤

I have some of those flowers blooming now GTC

Did you buy the mill new I have not had problems with my mill but cooks will tell you anything you have a ❓ on I have a mill that has a lot of cooks parts on it and any time I had a question they where very helpful to me if bought it from cooks they will help you with it for sure you have not seen problems I have had two different wood mizers and they were definitely a lot of trouble and I worked on them more than I sawed with them but they sale a lot of mills if I was younger I would have gotten cooks to build me one like I want but what I have is a little bit like that Johnny Cash Cadillac made from a few different mills but it saws good but it is a manual one there's no bells and whistles 😂 But good luck with it And God Bless Y'all stay safe

Turkey, the other white meat!

First comment of hopefully many

Hello, glad everything worked out for you. When your mill head is all the way back towards the hitch look up to the right hand corner. You will see two flow control valves that are factory set. In the middle of the two valves is a valve block controlled by a 12v coil. That coil controls the bypass and speed of the up and down of the head. The top needle valve controls fast, the bottom controls slow. You might have a bad coil or a wiring problem. You can disconnect the wiring harness and check the coil resistance and the harness for 12v. This is where you need to start. Good luck and happy milling

Use the cedar dust for walk ways in the garden. All the it messes with oh is fake and I have soil test to prove my ph is a perfect 7. I am cutting my cedar to 8 by 8s and leaving a live edge for the outside. Hand planning the inside wall face. Will stack them up this fall they been drying a year

Hi again, Check your downward blade adjustment, it should be 1/4” downward pressure. The roller guides push the blade down 1/4”, the blade should not be in the same plane as your band wheels. If your roller guides aren’t in the proper position you won’t be able to cut a 1” board. Good luck

Hello, it looks like your jacks are missing the pins. My cooks mill came with pins, there are holes drilled into the jack and square tube. I see the holes in your video. The pins can hold the jack in the up position for transport or down for milling. The other owner may not have given them to you. Section 2 of the manual shows a photo of them….. good luck

Hopefully cook will see this video & fix those issues

So glad Mernie is better! Silly old sweet girl!

Beautiful wood and smells so good GTC

Just found your blog and watching the sawing of the cedar lumber GTC
