Great idea you have for your sawing set up. Looking forward to see how it all works out for you. Thanks for sharing with us. Fred.

Very nice set up and I love that once the slabs are processed, they do NOT have to be picked up off the ground to take and stack....saving your back!

you need to sharpen your chain

Are you still liking your power lift?

Similar setup mine less robust. But I do mine as you said : mill and move slab to sawhorse, then when done the cant, back to horse and cut slab and move/stack to fork-lift-able racks to bring to the barn for winter warmth.

Nice ! Now show me what you do with that mountain of sawdust from the mill 😂

Great idea there. Do you burn that pine in your fireplace/stove?

I just ordered the HM130max on the trailer today with the Power lift. I just saw your channel now and saw this one too. Very nice!!! Can’t wait to see the power feed! I sold my RS31G sawmill yesterday and went with the woodland. Seems to be a very well built mill. I’m pretty excited!!

Nice job on the cutting table. Keeping up with the slabs helps avoid a big pile that is overwhelming Thanks for the video

Nice place you have there. Cutting table is handy

Smooth update. When milling your own dimensional lumber is there any advantage to sticking to today's common dimensions, other than yield, or would it be nice to go back to full 2"x4" dimensions for example ?

I'm waiting patiently for my power feed. Been quite awhile but hoping comes sooner than later

I would like to see how the iPad interface works with the power feed. For now, it seems a bit redundant since you are standing in front of the control panel as you push the saw through the log. Thanks for the video!

I am right on the same track ... haven't built but milling for the build of the shed. Bumped my mill bed as well trying to roll a 20" log on my 122 mill. (will correct tomorrow!) ..., used the strap method and it did well but the hook might be handy as you said. Will continue to follow your progress and thank you for sharing experience.

I use an old style bumper jack modified with a shallow hook welded onto it. I made mine from a broken jaw of a crescent wrench and sharped the tip. Have a wedge piece of wood to hold the log in place as it usually takes two goes to turn a big one.

I love it. The hook works!

There is also a fellow Sawyer that has a harbor freight winch mounted on a pair of eight wheel trolley's that run in a super strut that is mounted to the roof joist, centered on the log bunks, he's happy with it.

You did good, congrats!

Great it work out for you in the poplar log 🪵. 😊

Good to see both methods in use. Nice of 6.8liter to make the hook and send it to you. Thanks for the video

Both methods look better than hefting it by hand but the hook does look like it'll be better in the long term. Thanks for the demo

It's nice to see an idea actually work! Thanks for the shout out.

In the long run, the winch with a hooh is ideal, as it sure beats getting on and off of the tractor, but for now that hook sure seems to work nice!!

Beautiful country. Better to have the storm bring down the trees than to have them fall when someone isn't expecting them. Thanks for the video

That stream !!! Any brookies in there ?

Glad to see your downed trees become lumber or even firewood and not just bug food. Also good on you for wearing proper safety gear.

I've tried this on my mill, and what I found out that works is get some 8 quarter By 10 inches.Cut it the size between the 2 bunks.I cut mine at 43 inches and then Use clamps To clamp it down to the bunks.And then you'll be able to cut cookies with no problem

You could lift your log off with the tractor, sit it on on the ground, turn it over, then set it back on the mill. I’ve done it that way for years…..slow, but it works.

I spray my bunks with non stick cooking spray it helps. You got some nice lumber out of that big log you really had to work for it 😮‍💨

When you build a sawmill shed, build it tall enough and strong enough to put a winch above the mill. It's not as fast as a hydraulic log turner, but it is a lot cheaper and easier on the body. Thanks for bringing us along

Great vid...It looks like your second last bunk is missing its stainless steel cap. Did WM short you?

I have the same mill and find that moving the log away from the stops helps a lot, also I use a strap wrapped around the log like a chocker, hook it over a grapple tooth and lilt up. I got a new stop from woodland mills and it has a roller on top, so I'm experimenting to see if that works better. Thanks for the video, now I get to go saw on mine!

O , and by the way, where did you get that long handled Peavy? Or is it a cant hook?

I have run into that same situation,and my Peavy is much shorter than yours, what I have resorted to is using a long nylon lifting strap with one end wrapped around the log in the direction I want the log to go and gently lifting it straight up with the tractor. And Bob's your uncle!

It's good to see sawdust flying this morning! Lesson learned on the log turning, nothing damaged, no one hurt, and now you know.

I'm glad nothing was damaged. Gotta get it turned though.

I think that a guy my age needs a little bit of time to recover. Saving my arm and shoulder is well worth any extra time. And the accuracy is worth any minor time loss anyway. Thanks for the video.

Best of both worlds !

Wow, huge improvement. Thanks for the demo.

Nice details

I just found your channel a couple of days ago. I’m very interested in the power lift and your videos are extremely informative. Btw, I’d say that’s pretty darn good repeatability. Thank. Looking forward to your next video.

Nice walk-through. That powerlift guy should give you a commission!

Looks like a very helpful upgrade

Oh! and pay close attention to putting ties onto the sensor ... don't accidentally strap your lift cables. It's happened before ;)

I really enjoy watching you learn about the new features. :) btw, 'Kerf' in the presets are for whether or not to apply kerf compensation on a per-preset basis

Looks like some great upgrades. Glad to see that they are continuing to make improvements. Thanks for the video

That's great thank you... I actually already have one ! I'll give it a whirl.

Cool new features. I'm looking forward to seeing you put them to use!

Good one! Those PVC tubes work great. Using the battery grinder to only clear off debris on cut line saves time too. Thanks!

That's a nice setup I like that I'm gonna be looking into that have a good day stay safe my friend
