Those slabs will help keep somebody warm directly and looking forward to everything and anything. I remember the guys down the road getting the carriage trued up. They replaced something which is always coming to pass. Thanks, Mark, T.H.E and added help! Can't have too much with an oak! GBWYall!
As an industrial engineer, glad you understand how computers make sawyers more efficient You are a fantastic analog Miller, keep up the great work. Without Eddy, the teamwork falls apart, great work, fellas.
Back in my youth,,, 45 years ago,,, an uncle of mine went bonkers one night and bought a sawmill he claimed was dirt cheap and his wife claimed was just a noisily heap of manure. We cut oak farm boards 5/4 from 12 ft to 18 feet every evening after chores 5 days a week for 3 months or so. Then we put a metal roof up cause running a mill open to the weather purely sucks. Watching you two gents progressing along is a treat. There are times when I swear I can hear Eddie grunting.
Mark you and Eddie seem like really nice guys. And I feel so blessed to have stumbled into this channel. John has an interesting channel also. Out Of The Woods," Nathan Elliott" is knowledgable but he is fully automatic. Have a good and keep on sawing.
That was an ugly log. However you did get some nice boards out of it. Yes, those carriage wheels are toast! No computer allowed. That would take away all the fun! See you soon!
I'm enjoying learning about the details that you don't get in other sawmill videos, like today, the worn wheels and track. Having watched you changing cutter bits, I was wondering if anyone has experimented with ceramic bits. You sometimes see engineers using ceramic inserts to the lathe, and they take a pounding.
Mark and Eddie, I love your videos and how you explain what's going on as you saw. The best part of your channel is what is not there and that is filthy language and the beeping out of all the cursing we seem to be bombarded with these days. You guys really work hard and are true craftsmen!! Please keep up the good work.
I found that when we rebuilt the carriage wheels on the meadows that if you pu the wheels on the wood stove in the office and heat them till the cups fell out the new feel back in and then let them cool .but you have to hold them in place!!! A lot better than driving them out and in . Getter done buddy.
@@evankibbe590 we put a cam in the refrigerator and hung the steel timing gear in front of a kerosene salamander until it was warm. Then put that gear on the end of the cam pretty as you please. Oh it was in a 300 Inline 6 Ford motor.
That one was ugly on the outside then gave some nice planks then got ugly again in the middle. But the order got filled and all is well. Y’all done good again. 😎👍👏🇱🇷
I could be wrong but you know I'll be the one to say it if you want to see a faster growth of the channel seeing the pile of wood after the cut is great the chatting before the cutting it's not so good The cutting of the wood is very relaxing
I use to never have to take a shim when sawing on my Frick manual mill. I just multiplied the mixed numbers in my head on the fly. But I was a lot younger then.
There are two kinds of Detroit diesels. Freshly rebuilt and painted, and oily. You can clean and paint an old Detroit, but it will look just the same in a few months. Detroits leak oil, it's a "feature" of a pressurised intake system and lots of odd little seals all over the place.
That one was pretty ugly, good thing you have those decking orders to use up logs like that one. Thanks Mark, I checked out John at fricknjeep and he needs an Eddie equivalent at the sawmill. He's a hard working man for sure and I'm liking his videos too.👍😎
Binged fricknjeep....thanks. that Frick saw mill is cool. I'm just amazed he still has all of his fingers. Unlike you....he doesn't give a damn if sawn boards lean up against the spinning saw blade then moves them with his fingers.....he knows his stuff.
Greetings from the Philippines enjoy your videos and just wondering where are you located?? If someone wanted to build and or start a sawmill like yours where might you find one and how much might it cost?? In the US not here in the Philippines
In the initial cuts, why don't you use shims on the small diameter end so that most of the boards will have straight grain rather than a slight cross grain?
Are the bearings in the wheels tapered bearings? If so clean and repack the bearings and replace the bad wheels then you're set to go. Can't the track be replaced with angle iron thats laid down and tack it every foot?
Thank you Mark & Eddie. Just a thought,.. Would it be pertinent to shroud the wheels or have sweepers on the wheels or both, to keep debris off both mating surfaces? I hope to make my own portable band saw, (if I live that long, I'm 60 now, lol), some day, and was thinking of doing that on it. Thoughts? cheers🇨🇦
Mark where do you get the logs from do you have to buy them or do tree people bring the in I live in Georgia don't see that much around in my small town that only log has some nice looking boards in it Koop old Daddy dry till next time
mark can you explain 1/4 sawing I went to out of the woods after you mentioned him neat, different but neat. and he was talking about 1/4 sawing and I didn't get what he was saying you can usually make me understand the different terms of the cuts. thanks also fricknjeep man that's some work later
find you one of those round bubble mirrors and put it under the green/white/green flags so that you could see the dogs when you are moving the logs on the skid. . .
I notice when you rotate those large logs that they come down hard on the poor table and track there. That has to be hard on the equipment, e.g. bent frames etc. Is this a problem in your mill.
hi there mark just loaded a log on my mill and came to take a brake and what a nice way to take a brake watching another show with you 2 guys in it . question what is electricity on a cairrage . hay there whats your magic number . thanks for all the nice people you sent me . john now i got to go saw a log myself
Hi John , I just watched all of your new videos . I need to put a 22" sign up on the wall so people ask what is that ! glad you are closing up the walls before snow!
I noticed the bus motor pic the front saw the line as the log looks like smoke moving maybe just my phone or did the person who made it make that effect .
Mark, I think you should have some sort of two way radio communication with Eddie. For example, things that you can see that maybe he cannot, Like that piece that could have flown off on the second last cut. Also, if there were a way to link Eddie into the commentary, so we could hear both of you talking, on the job, that would be great.
I thought of a set of warning lights pointed from the back wall across from Ed and where Mark can see them...Set buttons in the cab and where Ed can use them...Have each light mean something important and give you both a way to shut the system down fast...No power for lights , ? use rechargeable battarys Pick colours that are used everywhere with easy to understand meanings...The mill is very dangerous and with others coming around its just time and someone will be hurt...That you took something like this to help your safety, it will help you not to get sued...Put signs up on the wall to explane the lights and the fears...
Hi Mark, I sure enjoy watching you and Eddie work... I would like to send you a license plate from UTAH if that is okay... Do you have a mailing address? Thanks, Ron...
Ughhhh, I see a LOT of cutting welds, Grinding and welding in the new track. But like you said, If you own equipment you are going to work on it. Even new equipment needs TLC.
I think you also need that motor looked at. All the oil around the base is getting worse. It looks like it spraying towards Eddy. I do not want to see him hit the ground with our without a piece of lumber. This could and will hurt him
@@markgalicic7788 Yep, they are actually designed to leak oil. The bottom of the air boxes under the blower actually have drain tubes to let the oil that gets past the blower seals and piston rings drain harmlessly to the ground, instead of being consumed by the engine.
Those detroit diesels were 2 cycle engines back then and I've never seen a clean one. They stopped making them in 1995 because they couldn't meet modern pollution standards. The series 60 is a four cycle engine that was designed to replace the series 71.

HI MARK most people today like the push button sawmills the old 🏫 school sawmills you had to pull the Rachel on the old manual sawmills every time before you saw a line and you had to allow for 1/4 of a inch for everything you saw between the saw blade and the head block OMG 😲 4 11 2O22
Small mills seem to have only one sawyer, If someone else is running the mill he's as nervous as a mother hen. My offbarer wanted to saw sometimes, I couldn't watch.
HI MARK most sawmill Sawyers saw cold water 🍉 melon in the summer time there is nothing better than good 👍😀 ice cold water 🍉 melon on a hot summer day years put use to put water 🍉 melons in big foot tubs w plenty of ice and water the colder they are the better they really 👍 good if they are good and sweet black diamond water 🍉 melons are good and sweet but you don't 👀 see them anymore OMG 4 11 2O22
It's like all the cage fighting channels they announce the fighters three or four times before the fight actually starts so aggravating I don't watch it I only like watching the girls woman fight anyways
Lovely superb Nice sawing
Much as I love seeing the sawing, repair and maintenance is also very fascinating
yes it's all part of running a mill.
Those slabs will help keep somebody warm directly and looking forward to everything and anything. I remember the guys down the road getting the carriage trued up. They replaced something which is always coming to pass. Thanks, Mark, T.H.E and added help! Can't have too much with an oak! GBWYall!
yes THE got warm very fast , we just want to finish up the walls before snow.
@@markgalicic7788 Yessir, you get an oak or something with the sap running out of it and the old thermometer takes the top off in no time A-tall!
Another great video thanks over the pond here we're lon 1 month lockdown thank the Lord for you two you're helping keep us all sane.
Good luck!
As always I enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing the mechanical things with us. Love watching you guys bringing this mill together. God Bless.
thanks Mac.
As an industrial engineer, glad you understand how computers make sawyers more efficient
You are a fantastic analog Miller, keep up the great work.

There you go,again. Taking an ugly log and making something out of it!👍I'm enjoying watching John do all his alone.Thanks for the tip!
thanks.
Frick & Jeep's saw blade gives me nightmares! Love his videos just the same!
Mark you and Eddie seem like really nice guys.
And I feel so blessed to have stumbled into this channel.
John has an interesting channel also. Out Of The Woods," Nathan Elliott" is knowledgable but he is fully automatic. Have a good and keep on sawing.
thank you .
This log is like some people I know, ordinary looking on the outside but quite magical on the inside, for a worn out track it still does a good job.
well said.
Log: does this wood make my lumber look ugly?
Mill: no you’re beautiful on the inside!!
yes sir.
LOL, Cute
That was an ugly log. However you did get some nice boards out of it. Yes, those carriage wheels are toast! No computer allowed. That would take away all the fun! See you soon!
yes it was , hope to see you soon!
people dont understand how hard it is to make a circle mill cut good and accurate like yours does
yes it's a lot of work to keep it sawing accurate.
I like your operation. I will eventually be building furniture an cutting some trim if I ever get to it.
Go for it!
@@markgalicic7788 just curious, where’s your mill at. Might be interested in some lumber. Maybe I towards spring. Haven’t figured out heat source yet.
Ive noticed on lots of ugly logs ive seen usually has some of the most beautiful grain lumber. Stay and be safe Mark and Eddie. Love all your videos.
very true Eric.

Great video as always guys!! Very enjoyable. 👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it
The 56" looks good up there
Thanks Mark for telling us about "fricknjeep"sawmill.Happy days!

Thank you for the video.I think your mill cuts very well. You weren't off at all when you sawed the 21 or 22' foot beam for your building.
Thanks 👍
Great video again Mark and Eddie, stay safe guys
Thanks, you too!
Another great video-Thanks Mark and Eddie! Take care and be safe!
thanks Robert.
i love the colour of the flags in the backround it makes the place pop
thanks
The building looks great!
thanks.
As always that was a great video thank God bless you and Eddie
thanks Edward.
I think you handled that log rather well. Good job Mark and Eddie
thanks Jim.
That one was ugly on the outside then gave some nice planks then got ugly again in the middle. But the order got filled and all is well. Y’all done good again. 😎👍👏🇱🇷
thanks Joe.
Love the saw videos. Have you ever had a beech on the mill .
Would like to see the inside of one and how it saws
yes we have sawn some beach many years ago , I will try to do a video on some beach.
I could be wrong but you know I'll be the one to say it if you want to see a faster growth of the channel seeing the pile of wood after the cut is great the chatting before the cutting it's not so good The cutting of the wood is very relaxing
I use to never have to take a shim when sawing on my Frick manual mill. I just multiplied the mixed numbers in my head on the fly. But I was a lot younger then.
when logs bow while you saw them it's needed.
@@markgalicic7788 YEP
when you are repairing the wheels and track it would really be nice to give the diesel motor a clean up and paint ,,love your show
will try too.
There are two kinds of Detroit diesels. Freshly rebuilt and painted, and oily. You can clean and paint an old Detroit, but it will look just the same in a few months.
Detroits leak oil, it's a "feature" of a pressurised intake system and lots of odd little seals all over the place.
Your wheels may be worn but that mill saws better then my belsaw nice job as always.
yes I started with a timberking M-14 mill 28 years ago.
That one was pretty ugly, good thing you have those decking orders to use up logs like that one. Thanks Mark, I checked out John at fricknjeep and he needs an Eddie equivalent at the sawmill. He's a hard working man for sure and I'm liking his videos too.👍😎
yes decking is good for the ugly ones , glad you liked the fricknjeep channel.
I would like to see a shot of the stack when your running them big logs on the saw ,that ole jimmy is singin
good idea Doug.
Binged fricknjeep....thanks. that Frick saw mill is cool. I'm just amazed he still has all of his fingers. Unlike you....he doesn't give a damn if sawn boards lean up against the spinning saw blade then moves them with his fingers.....he knows his stuff.
glad you liked.
So you can adjust the pitch of the blade? also is there anyway we can see the inside of your control booth? Love the lumber that you guys put out.
They are not young people they are blisters, They come out when the work is all done.
very true.
Greetings from the Philippines enjoy your videos and just wondering where are you located?? If someone wanted to build and or start a sawmill like yours where might you find one and how much might it cost?? In the US not here in the Philippines
a great day at the mill, looking good
yes sir.
Hope you guy video a little bit doing the wheel changeout. Good show Mark and Ed.
yes we will.
In the initial cuts, why don't you use shims on the small diameter end so that most of the boards will have straight grain rather than a slight cross grain?
this log didn't have much tapper.
Are the bearings in the wheels tapered bearings? If so clean and repack the bearings and replace the bad wheels then you're set to go. Can't the track be replaced with angle iron thats laid down and tack it every foot?
yes they are , we are going to install new bearings & races . the track is 1x1x1/4" angle iron.
Have you guys ever milled sweet gum and if you have, what did you think of it?
no sir we have not.
What's leaking on the bus motor ?
if a Detroit isn't leaking its out of oil john
@@fricknjeep yes sir John , it's not house broken like a dog.
@@fricknjeep Bahahahahahahahahahaha
Naa, not leaking, it’s marking its spot!
Thank you Mark & Eddie. Just a thought,.. Would it be pertinent to shroud the wheels or have sweepers on the wheels or both, to keep debris off both mating surfaces?

thanks , we do have track scrappers on the carriage .
Mark where do you get the logs from do you have to buy them or do tree people bring the in I live in Georgia don't see that much around in my small town that only log has some nice looking boards in it Koop old Daddy dry till next time
we get them from a tree service.
Don't know if you knew it but the Michigan 1976 plate was made of Aluminum to celebrate the 100 years !
Another great video
thanks Robert.
Hi Mark love the video why do you have to keep readjusting on the Saw guide I have saw this on a couple of videos I know nothing about sawing lumber
we been having some cold mornings so the saw will run a little different.
Thsnks
mark can you explain 1/4 sawing I went to out of the woods after you mentioned him neat, different but neat. and he was talking about 1/4 sawing and I didn't get what he was saying
you can usually make me understand the different terms of the cuts. thanks also fricknjeep man that's some work later
Yes I can
Just watched OTW yesterday Nathan gave you a big shoutout!
thanks for watching our channel Carl.
@@markgalicic7788 I love it, It's really interesting and oddly calming! :)
HEY MARK all the old sawmills are old school they use a lumber gauge wheel OMG 1 19 2022
find you one of those round bubble mirrors and put it under the green/white/green flags so that you could see the dogs when you are moving the logs on the skid. . .
yes sir.
love that pickled cabbage! better than KIM-SHEE have you heard or seen fricnjeeps' other build?
yes sir.
I notice when you rotate those large logs that they come down hard on the poor table and track there. That has to be hard on the equipment, e.g. bent frames etc. Is this a problem in your mill.
no they can take a good pounding.

You are always checking the saw guide, what does it do?
keeps the saw running true.
That ugly Oak log turn out to be pretty wood inside.
yes it did Nancy.
sawing begins at 7:15 mark...
yes sir.
Switching between blade and bandsaw is interesting. I worked for a mill that had a blade. Moved a lot quicker. Wasted wood, I thought. Their wood.
yes we still like the circle mill.
@@markgalicic7788 yeah but you take the time to trim down your logs. Still some of your off fall has small boards for someone likes to piddle around.
