Friend made his own kiln, made a frame on the side of his barn, sunny side, from his scrap lumber into 2X4, with those corrugated plastic panels from a box store, hinges the panels and can fill it from the outside, an also used plastic, visqueen on the sides, get hot as can be inside, stacks his boards inside, and has two fans blowing on the boards when the sun is out, dries his stuff in weeks. Great video and like to know more why you cut it the way you did, 1/4 sawing it saves lots of lumber, ??? Keep up the good work, my LT 15 GO isn't a wide one, sure would be nice, 👍👍👍👍👍
Well that came out nice.... Don’t forget to coat the ends... red oak really likes to check. Speaking of checks... if you arrange your logs so the end checks are horizontal... you’ll minimize the number of boards that have them. I realize that you can’t really do that when sawing for a certain grain figure effect... or when sawing irregular shaped logs. But, when they are cylindrical and straight... it yields more board feet of usable lumber.
Good morning from sweet water Tn. Love ur channel. U all do a awesome job. Hey just FYI u need a heavy ballast box 1k + pounds on the back of that tractor, I’ve seen people split the rear cases apart if the tractor has to much weight up front on the loader and the rear of the tractor keeps twisting like I’ve seen your tractor do several times. Just my advice and trying to safe u a whole lot of money in repairs. Keep up the great content. God Bless
Thank you so much. That is very helpful. I actually just built one a couple days ago. It is right at 1000 lbs. It has solved our issues and we can lift logs easy now
Just found your channel. Great job on the LT 15. Good looking Lumber!! Looks like you made that about a year ago can't wait to catch up on some videos and see where you're at. Speaking of where you're at I see a lot of Spanish moss and Palmetto. Where are you at. Well I'm headed back to quartersawing myself here in North Louisiana.... Have a good one
You're correct. Standard "rule of thumb" for air drying is one year per inch of thickness. One should also seal the end grain to minimise cracking while the boards dry. Polyurethane works pretty good. Some mills use exterior house paint.
We have some frost on the pumpkins this morning with a temp right now at 33 F. Other than starting out cool it’s going to be what I call, “A San Diego kinda day,” here in SE Louisiana. Severe clear all day with temps getting up to the mid 60s with the humidity in the mid 30s.
Suggestion: I would not use the orange square to draw straight and level lines. I would use a 2 foot level, that way I could use it to draw true horizontal and vertical lines. If you use a torpedo level to make sure your band saw blade is level. The 2 level may also be used. For wedges, I would the orange square to make blocks. (This square has 2- 45 degree angles and one 90 degree angle.) Note: The blue square (including the 2 legged squares) are seldom a true 90 degrees straight from the store. If you are interested I can tell how to check for square and how to adjust the square to 90 degrees.
I love the look of live oak, which as you know grows like wildfire in Florida -about the only thing I from Florida that I miss, it is a pain to work with but the grain pattern is amazing especially when the wood starts to splat (live oak can take up to 4 years before that happens). It looked like your saw was having trouble pulling the blade through- which is why I’m guessing live oak- so have you looked into the double hard 4 degree blades Nathan at OTW has been talking about lately? I ask because having experience with live oak and knowing how hard that lumber is those blades would come in very handy, being as how they are designed to cut frozen logs and lumber that rates high on the hardness scale. Anyway nice video and wow y’all are coming along nice since you started about 6 months ago. And have you ever heard of Matt Cremona? He has a video from a few years ago where he used a small log on his bandsaw and showed how he does quarter sawn lumber, I’ll look for the video and post a link in the comments to my comment
Ok so here is the Video by Cremona it can get a little boring but if you skip to 10:35 he starts the quarter sawn segment with a piece of branch log. ua-cam.com/video/IgMR1boYfTc/v-deo.html
Save your highly figured scraps for woodturners to cutinto pen blanks and bottle stoper stoppers ... Sawyers seldom think about value added products ... Hookup with local woodworking clubs ...
You may want to check out Bus Motor Production’s video on their kiln, here on YT. They are building one out of a shipping container. You can get them as small as 20 feet long and up to 53 feet long.
👍👍 what are the prices for red oak rough cut: Plain cut: Quarter sawn: I think the 3 of y'all make a real nice team. 👍👍Very nice guys 😀 I have some red oak and want to know how to price it. Thank y'all.
Josaljo Won on UA-cam, ua-cam.com/users/josaljo1videos made a solar kiln that would be cheaper, until you were ready to build one with heaters. You could search back in his videos where he talks about his kiln.
I would wear safety equipment when using a chainsaw . If it was just one cut as in the video i would at least wear safety glasses but that is just me. Everyone is different and i'm not saying what everyone else should do, just what i would do.
Great video. Really enjoy that we learn as you learn. Real world experience. Keep up the great work and I will keep watching.
Thank you Darrell! We love comments like this and viewers like you!
It makes me happy to see that there wasn’t any waste and that you will save the very little scrap there is for craft hobbies and sales.
Thanks
down in georgia i have to cut off all bark and spray for powder post beetles usually 30 inch logs for 1/4 sawing white or red oak

Beautiful lumber great job.
Nice job guys!
Thanks
Great job guys!
Thank you!! Wait till the video that’s dropping Friday! I mention you when talking to dad about milling.
Well that came out nice....

Awesome looking planks! Nice use of that log. Thanks for the great explanation and video. Keep it up!
Thank you
Load my truck up. I want all that lumber! Great video
Thank you
Super👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you
Good morning from Athabasca Alberta 🇨🇦
Good morning
iam liking the warmer weather hi zoe
Thank you
Good morning from St John Parish, Louisiana 18 Jan 21.
Good morning!
From what I have seen, air drying lumber is 1 year per 1 inch of thickness. Maybe that varies by location but not sure.
Thank you!

Great job guys! Hey was the power feed not working or did it just need help?
We have some frost on the pumpkins this morning with a temp right now at 33 F. Other than starting out cool it’s going to be what I call, “A San Diego kinda day,” here in SE Louisiana. Severe clear all day with temps getting up to the mid 60s with the humidity in the mid 30s.
Very nice! It’s a cold morning here today too.
Nice lumber ! I’m making a end table out of red oak right now
Very cool! We are about to start making so much stuff out of red oak
I made a solar kiln it can dry 2 inch thick lumber in 2-3 weeks depending on the sun.
We definitely need to do that
Suggestion: I would not use the orange square to draw straight and level lines. I would use a 2 foot level, that way I could use it to draw true horizontal and vertical lines. If you use a torpedo level to make sure your band saw blade is level. The 2 level may also be used.

Duuuudeeee. You're thinking wayyyy too much...

Will take longer unfortunately for those boards to dry properly! Year per inch
Thank you

Thank you so much Bill!! Very helpful comment
Nice work but never saw any kind of protection, like gloves, glass and ear plug...
Thank you
👍👍 what are the prices for red oak rough cut:
Plain cut:
Quarter sawn:
I think the 3 of y'all make a real nice team. 👍👍Very nice guys 😀
I have some red oak and want to know how to price it. Thank y'all.
I am not very skilled in the pricing yet. I would direct you to Nathan at Out of The Woods to seek the answer.
Zoe ever get board with the saw mill lol waiting for your next warm video
Thank you
Do a true 1/4 saw on a big sycamore and when you build a table use tung oil and you will be amazed
a kiln is just a heated box with a fan simple
on the front with glue or how
What is your question?
front wood with glue? or something else because of cracks in the wood during drying@@TripleLRusticDesigns
Cut some black walnut my favorite wood by far
Thanks
Good video. New sub here. I hope to add a mill one day. I also have been looking a Kilns. I may make one
Once you have your half on the saw split it than put one quarter up their at a time and cut from the bottom and flip it.
Thank you
Nice
Thanks
comment 23 like 199 Good Job Boys !!
Thank you!
Go to www.forestry forum and search "reverse roll quarter sawing" for the best way to qs with the most yield.
Thank you very much! That is helpful
Didn't I see you two on HGTV 100 day Dream home Yesterday.....
That was us
I knew they looked familiar.
@@TripleLRusticDesigns I KNEW IT!!!! Way to go on taking advantage of the moment #BlueBloods! Good luck! 🤙🏽
Watching your episode on HGTV right now.
Thanks lol

Boards look really good!! Missing Zoe, although your pants were almost as tight as hers lol
Thank you
I would wear safety equipment when using a chainsaw . If it was just one cut as in the video i would at least wear safety glasses but that is just me. Everyone is different and i'm not saying what everyone else should do, just what i would do.
Thank You!
Now THAT’S utilizing a log?
Thank you!
You know better than your wife 😄😄😄👍🙈
Thank you
I CAN TELL YOU HOW TO MAKE A HOME MADE KILN REALLY CHEAP
shoot me an email. TripleLRusticDesigns@hotmail.com
why not build your own kiln from design not from a kit
Where is your cute assistant today?
7minutes 45 seconds. I actually watched the whole video for the actual content lol
I posted my comment before she got her 18 seconds in this one. It would have been much better with her getting 18 minutes.
She will be in another one soon.
Triple L Rustic Designs That’s good!!! Besides being very cute, I like to hear her talk, love her accent.
