      Thanks buddy Gotta be fast to make money these days most mills just have the log turner. But this mill has cant flippers on the carriage it’s way way faster than turning the log all the way around with the turner

    We had -27* Fahrenheit this morning, no wind, in New Gloucester! How did your band saw do with dozen logs? How do you think a Solid Tooth Saw would hold up to frozen logs? Stay warm and safe! Dan

      The band saw ran all day I’m going to get a video tomorrow The bandsaw runs a frost notch for frozen logs it’s suppose to help anyways. I don’t know a whole lot about it tho Solid tooth sawmill would probably cut good since he needs to spray water on his saw at all times but I don’t know very much about those saws just what I’ve seen from watching

      So those pcs were 1 7/8 X 3 7/8. They were 108 “ longs. But we have another order for 1 3/4x 3 3/4. 51” long. So they will get plained on 2 sides then get cut in half to get two 51” pcs then bundled up and sold to a different customer

    I noticed that the lumber that was stickered was placed all Willy Nilly. Why not more uniformed? Less chance of warped boards.....

      It all air dries. We would make a bigger deal if it was being kiln dried and used for somthing important. But it’s only used to make more sticks and stakes

      And it’s been -20 Celsius for the past 3 days minus 30 with the windchill. It’s kinda difficult for the guys to do much of anything when it’s that cold. We are in a building but there’s no heat

    • @DanielParadis-sr5nh

      Wow! No heat..... Well, at least they're under cover and away from the wind!

      @DanielParadis-sr5nh I’m the only one the gets to stay comfortable I sit in the cab in a tshirt and those guys are working in -20 or colder sometimes I forget to give them a little break The building does stop the wind. But some days it’s colder inside the mill because there’s no Sun 🌞
