Jade is gonna be jacked by summers end! That thing really moves!
Jade is probably the most athletic saw miller in the business
Let's put it this way... I would not want to arm wrestle that girl... NOPE NOPE NOPE yeah a navy marine engineer saying that. She is going built that is for sure. She just might even clear the bar.
😂😂😂
I think the boss better be finding a second person offloading once Em gets the hang a that mill...
The new mill is a beast!!
A fast learning curve on your part Emerald !!
Jade is going to be asking for a raise!!
Am I strange or does anyone else like the longer videos watching someone else work?
Kinda relaxing. 😂😂😂😂😂😂❤
As a young boy in the early 70's working in my dads circle saw sawmill at the end of the shift he would get out of his chair and make a note of how many board feet of lumber he had sawed for that shift. All that math served him well as he went to work in a bank after the logs dried up. He ended up being President of the Bank of Barron. You are learning many skills on your great adventure. Use them!!
I hope that Jade is is able to learn the controls too; maybe switch jobs after a certain time. A business needs more than one operator, in case of sickness or accidents, etc. The more people that can operate the mill, the better for the business.🙂
A sawdust conveyor that catches all that sawdust and loads directly into a dump trailer.
That’s a good idea, look around for an old/used belt conveyor with an electric motor and your in business. A good place to look would be some old farms or maybe a machinery rental place. They already have a couple dump trailers but a covered one would be nice. That would save a few hours a week pretty easily.
@@Hoaxer51Except the part about no electricty. Have to run a generator.
Or a vacuum dust collector system that loads it automatically.
Emerald and Jade. Two of my favorite gems! 👍❤️
THAT THEY ARE!!!!
I'm disappointed there's no Ruby. ;-)
Like my grandma used to say, "It needs a roof." As always nice work ladies!
An all girl mill. I like how the little one was handing the sawdust. They still need a dust collector.
Your grandma sounds like my grandma! I bet she is an amazing person!
A Quonset open air style might be nice.
@@Spaltyslife, My Grandma use to say, “If you’re going to wish for something, wish for a million dollars. Every now and then wishes come true and there ain’t no sense in wasting one!” Lol
Love to the family! Forward allways forward .😊
Love your Shepard playing in the sawdust
Nice machine, I'm happy for you. Jade is fast and strong she still has no trouble keeping up.
That thing is amazing. What a powerhouse.
And that diesel is not messing around.
Nice mill...I sure hope there will soon be a roofed structure over that gem to protect it.
I bet Grandpa is drawing up the plans as we speak!
The log deck❤❤❤❤ that is a true dream.
Wow. That thing is nice. That log feeder has got to be a nice addition as well
9:23 puppy loves the smell of fresh cut wood
I see you got an automatic self propelled sawdust spreader too! Just in case the pile is too neat. 9:35
Wow! That is something. The feeder is really cool.
That thing rips. Jade is going to become a beast!!!
It’s so encouraging to see a family business experiencing the growth you’re going through with this new mill. Continued success and prayers for your family to stay safe and prosper!
That mill cuts in reverse, which when I see it in action, is a huge improvement in material flow. Making use of that difference will be important to realize the productivity gains you're looking for.
There you are standing beautifully in the rain, snow and wind
6:23 Are yall going to build a pavilion or at least a roof to protect it from the weather and so you can work in all weather?well, except lightning, tornados, and hurricanes 😂
Oh wow that thing is fast and I love the preload table and that black lift to roll a new log over onto the mill. Never seen that set setup before,very impressive sawmill and complete setup .
Ok I guess your probably not going to have a roof it would take a big one to cover all that .so just get yall those hats with the little umbrella attached over your head 😂😂.
And you have to dance in those two 😂😂
They'll need some lumber for that! LoL 😂😆
@@dans_Learning_Curve
Yes they will.
Emy is really busy and alot to remember to do and making sure to cut the right dimension lumber.
Looked like she cut several different thicknesses with that log so lots of learning to come to get really proficient with the new mill. That was really fun to watch how it all works though.
So are you all going to enclose that next winter?
Windy days might get interesting, shelter those girls from the wind.
If they do that, then Jade will always be stuck as the mill hand.
Jade's work has increased. I hope to see in the future a cover over this so then you can mill in the rain snow or whatever is falling.
Congratulations on the upgrade from the LT40 to the LT70 Wide. That log deck is going to improve production as well. Fill the deck and no manual after that. Yanmar engines are well known. I saw the removal of the old and install of the new. To see you folks working it was very pleasing. Larger price tag but long term, Your Dad is a smart man. So is your Grandpa. Say Hi to the family and wish you the best.
You ladies deserve the best. ❤❤❤
Slick rig....faster for sure.
I really like the design of the log deck...also time and labor saving.👍😁🇨🇦
Em and Jade; excellent video. Em, you are more and more professional and beautiful each time I see you. Jade, you are keeping right up with that thing like a pro. Tending, placing and adjusting the stacks as they grow and grow and grow. Jade needs to be in on the operation of the mill too for her resume. And that machine is something to behold. Please figure out how to put a canopy over it and in the area where the tenders work so the mill and you both will have some refuge from the elements and the sun. Being outdoors is great, but it can be overwhelming with time. Thank You Both for a beautiful show today and please have A Great Day. ben/ michigan
Congratulations LCLY that is an Awesome Mill!
Wow!! The speed of that LT 70 is amazing. It resembles what we call in backwoods Alabama a "shotgun" that can be run by either steam or an MG set. My background is in veneer mills so it even seems all the more amazing to me. I'm finding you channel to be a valuable educational resource.
It will never be like a shotgun carriage. Or the even faster pony mills. Quite simply the technology of the saw blades is the limitation and as for ever running with a blade that's blunt is crazy. Accuracy and production are paramount. I once looked at buying the stationery LT300 which is basically identical but backed out when I found that even a small wide bandsaw would use less power and cut in an hour what these mills do in a day.
Get upto the big wide band saws and shotgun carriage mills and a days cutting would take the best woodmizer a month.
these mills are really meant to be portable and go in the woods from job to job or landing to landing not really a stationary production Mill.
that new log deck bt itself self is a game changer to speed up production less log rolling and feeder chain/belt
Fantastic bit of kit.
You’re gonna get through a lot more logs with this.
Love it.
Eliminating bottlenecks and gettin it done Luvuguys and thanks for the doggie interlude it warms my old heart.
I can see where that automated loading table already saves you time and your back! You have to trust the machine and your eyesight with that cutting from the other end. Have fun and best of luck with the new mill.
That is just a whole new level of speed!!! WOW!!
Yup, it’s faster. Might be a good idea to ask Jade’s advice if there are any changes that you can do to help her swamp the slabs, flitches, and board lumber coming off. Just so that you don’t have to wait and can keep the mill going at 90%.
That log deck will help in production too
What a rig. I felt like I was getting sawdust in my eyes watching this.
You are going to love the log deck too...
Sooo much faster! And no more rolling logs! You're days will fly by because you both are constantly moving. Might have to get Jade some running boots!😂 Great job you two!
Nice editing Emerald! You have successfully merged in the best of mentioning the new machine adjustments you need to make with the puppy in the saw dust. Brilliant!
The wood look like butter... Nice.
I could hear the engine only when you first started it. That machine is quick! Jade might need Judah to help get those glitches trimmed. Y'all might need Mom to load logs onto the mill. I can see production doubled or even tripled. All hands on deck!
Thanks for the long uncut takes of the new machine in action. It really shows how fast it is with you guys running it. Enjoy - cheers.
That is a lot faster. I see production increase big time👍
Loading those logs looks a lot easier!
wow that engine didn't even grunt. You are operating it like you have always had one. Good job
Your new puppy is so cute. We have a female GSD, and she likes dig in the sawdust, too.
I think the hardest thing for me to get accustomed to would be the blade coming AT me instead of the way you previously had it, but it makes some sense in that the planks are pushed away from the unit with much more room. Gold luck girls!
Thank you very much. From Thailand
Very impressive piece of equipment, indeed!!
Great job of setup so far..and learning how's n where for's to get to top production!!
Stay safe, be awesome, stay
awesome !!!
🤙🐺🧙♂️🦊👍
The log feeding deck is a huuuuuuuuuuuuuge improvement!!! So awesome :D
Way to go Em. you catch on quickly. I guess you'll be putting a cover the mill.
I so love your videos youngin. My Great grandfather and Grandfather were both loggers who came over from Ireland in 1804. It brings back so many great memories thank you Emerald for all y'all do🥰👍🙋♂️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🐕🐕
THAT IS ONE SWEET SET UP ! I LIKE HOW THE LOGS LOAD AND YOU START THE CUTS AT THE OTHER END! NOW JADE HAS MORE ROOM TO LAY OUT LUMBER IT SEEMS .. GREAT MILL!
Nice mill. you should have your grandpa look at Robert Miltons modification on his dragback. it carries the wood as far back as he wants. He is a retired aerospace engineer. on the forestry forum as yellowhammer and run hobby hardwood in Alabama. I am doc henderson on the forestry forum. you guys should take a look at that forum if you do not already. I enjoy the videos.
The Robert Milton dragback modification that kinda hooks the board so it won't fall is an interesting idea! I will watch how things settle out at LCLY and make sure they know this idea. The way I see it, the flitches and slabs will need to go as far back on the table as possible and other lumber may need to drop off sooner.
yes. as soon as he stops, it lets the load down wherever he wants. It seems it would save work stopping at the far end for stuff that goes there. I enjoy watching the crew. Best regards, Doc. Henderson.@@scottsoper
It may be safer and speed things up if the off loader can stay back from the mill head. Doc.
That long table off set from the pile causes Jade a lot of extra work. Why not feed the cut lumber straight off the end (remove the added roller section) and then move the pile with the fork lift ? Lighter Slabs to one side. Sticker it as you go. Em needs a pair of cup holders on the console.
OK- that log loader is amazing. Keep working hard, keep building the business, Onward!! Success awaits. Teamwork, baby, teamwork. You guys are doing it right.
Wow 😮 big difference , nice work , that’s going to make a huge increase in productivity !!
It's really nice to see you gained personality and more humor in your videos. Now all your films have always been good and informative and straight forward, but you were soooo dry emotionally. The new films are happier.
Love seeing the new 70 mill, as I am in the market for a new faster mill myself. Thinking of putting it down stream of a circle mill ..
Congratulations on the new equipment
I am excited for your family! Awesome upgrade! You all have earned this big time.
Great job ladies. Looks like it won't take long to get comfortable
Higher productivity always means less standing around. The workers work harder, and the boss makes more money, that is just the way it works. Believe me I know. It is a great machine. This is not the only channel that has one.
That's true. The one guy I USE to watch would sometimes cut 2 maybe 3 logs a day with all the discussion, explaining and measuring to get the center jussst right. I don't know how, once you figure out the final location, that you can't build a nice shelter for it. That's simply too much money to just leave out in the elements. Heated would of course be great for both equipment and you ladies, but let's start with a roof and sides. That beast definitely moves at least 2x faster and probably faster than that. Be thoughtful to Jade and don't bury her, you are still sisters😂😂. Don't necessarily try to cut faster, but just let it happen. You look pretty smooth already and as you get more familiar with the controls you'll get faster and think less. Really happy for your family with this new mill and the "new" skidder getting into service😊😊😊
@@ronallen6578 As they work out the layout things will get better for Jade...
I watch both. I love him too, but he’s lazy. He’s uncomfortable cutting at full speed and that causes rough cuts. They do need his dust collection system though.
Can anyone say "Out of the Woods".
Ok Out of the woods. Happy now?@@boblohof4579
Lady I was jealous of the 40, this 70 looks amazing. My poor old manual mill looks so slow compared to the Production mills. Maybe one day I will have a grown up mill lol, and that deck, oh I wish. Congratulations ladies, may there be no metal in your logs. Good sawing.
All the luck in the world angel. Maybe an episode explaining how to store sawn lumbar so it wont warp/ drying procedure.
This machine looks far better to operate than the older one with the cut coming towards the operator, allowing better sight of how the cut is going and the lay off being away from the operator. There seems to be much more room and machine bed for Jade to work with and this must make it easier for her. Having spent most of my working life programming and operating wood working machinery I am well aware of the difference a better machine can make life for the operators. I hope you both find the new machine makes life easier for you although probably busier.
How awesome is that! That live deck makes quick work, and that diesel is a huge upgrade! It's a much larger operation that you are clearly well on your way to perfecting! Nice machine, nice work. 👍🇺🇲
Thanks!
Yanmar builds a good engine...
I own two of them on a couple of sailboats... never had a bit of trouble with either one..unusual for a boat, especially one of that size in a saltwater environment...
Yanmar is a workhorse... It just keeps going and going and going...👍
Wow I just got my LT70 couple weeks ago as well our machines must have been in line with each other going out the door.. I sold my 2021 LT50 gas and yes I had about 300 hours of time on and My new LT70 scares the heck out of me it's so fast. My only advice and can see you are really moving fast already, they say slow down till you get 50 hours into it to get your muscle memory. You can easily hit the wrong button on wrong mode over the log and that thing will drop so fast you'll damage machine. Even the hydraulic with engine at full speed will launch a 20" log right over those arms. I'm truly thrilled. At best I could only do maybe 400BF hour on my LT50. In 10 hours of playing around we are already hitting 500BF/hr and still not working it that hard. Have fun, because I sure am. What a blessing for you guys and good luck.
WOW!!! That is some crazy power!! That is sure a big step up from the LT-50!! Glad you are having fun with it!!!
COOL YOU ARE REALLY ENJOLYING THE NEW MILL I CAN SEE
The 70 moves much quicker than the 40.. All the Best with the New Machine, Em hope You an Jade get the Bugs worked out quickly and your back into Production Safely.. I'm interested to see what Your Dad and Grandfather come up with to Cover your Work Station.. Like all things new , they'll come up with something that is an improvement as well from your last Sheltered Area.. Cheers
Em, I remember the old business saying, you're either on your way up or your on your way out !!
True in all parts of life, You're either learning and growing or dying slowly...
Love the credits at the end!
I love it! Definitely faster and the log loader is excellent. Jade, the roller tables make life easier, when you get edger set up so you can run straight in your production should triple if not more. Hope you are able to get a roof on soon. Hey don't know what blades you are using but Joe Maine in South GA makes blade and his best is the turbo 7 blade and Grandpa already has the best saw sharpening machine👍👍👍. Boss Man the ladies are going to keep you busy too! but that's a good thing. This is exciting can't wait to see the next show... Cheers All! John Toccoa GA🤠
Seems the edger at the end of the roller bed is a must. The ones needing edging will really pile up fast. Will take one day a week to catch them up. Better to do them as you go. It may require hiring a third person. I know they probably don't want to, but if she gets fast sawing it will work Jade to death otherwise. The middle person can get the slabs and boards that don't require edging. The other can catch the boards that are edged and toss the trimmings. Plus they can help the middle person from time to time and load logs on the log deck. That's my impressions, but they have time to work out the details and improve the setup.
@@WPA33SCmy thoughts are similar but not quite the same. Jade stays with sorting and stacking the lumber. The third person can manage the resaw, chopsaw and AXIS to keep the fletches and slabs cleaned up.
@@scottsoperI agree there are different ways to get to the desired result. I think one thing we do agree on is the need for another employee. That's the problem when you increase production. Also a problem when you have to hire outside the family. W-2, insurance, state and local agents stopping by to check for safety are just some of the issues. By your posts here you sound like someone that has already had to deal with these things one way or another.
@@WPA33SC It is a heavy work load but I think family can still get it done! I see Judah as the third person.
Quite the machine. Works really well and fast. Thanks for video!
The arrangement of the deck and mill is excellent. I look forward to seeing how you arrange your edger.
im amazed at how fast you went through 4 logs
That LT-70 looks twice as fast as the LT-40. Only you can make it move that fast. God Bless
Build a roof above it. leave access for a front loader to get saw dust. God Bless
WOW There's no way the boss can keep up with you ladies NOW ❤Have a wonderful weekend 📹👍👌😉from🇨🇦
Get a carpenters self levelling laser level and mount it at same height as blade. It will put a line on the log exactly where the blade will cut!!! Faster better adjustment to set
height !! Just gotta bolt on a 8” metal adjustable pad to mount it to blade traveling frame. Put shields on it to control laser exposure.
There is no need for that. If it was needed it would have it. It is automated no adjustment is ever needed.
Emerald you are the real upgrade and look most radiant in the cold air of North-Central PA in March sunshine. If your reading this support the channel by sending $$$. Rough-cut lumber forever! .
Wow, Mega. 💪🏼💪🏼🥰This machine works very quickly and effectively. For you it is a great relief, but for Jade it is now sporty when sorting the boards. Physically better from the strength and the back in any case. Now you only need to roof the working area around the machine well so that you can work even in unfavorable weather conditions and not get wet. It's really fun to watch you both.🤗God bless you 🙌
It looks like a great improvement.
Emerald you do a great job running the new mill that cuts fast
Real Nice Lt70 , Its Fast ! Lots of Extra Work for Emerald and Jade . Did you all see The Puppy playing in The Sawdust ? 😅 So Darn Cute .😅😅😅😅😅
Yea man, the sawdust will fly now. God Bless from your Canadian Friend.
I think you are going a little faster than Jade wants.🤪
Love that log loader , i know rolling and loading the logs on the mill is one of the hardest parts.
You might have to get Jade a helper. Looks like you could go faster once you get used to it. Nice Mill, looking forward to more videos.
Really pleased you’re in a position to make the choice to upgrade your equipment.
Hopefully UA-cam is getting you a decent financial boost.
You deserve massive success on the platform Girls and your family are fantastic.
All the best to you all from us across the pond in sunny Southwest England.
Sunny?? I thought that was just a myth😂😂😂
@@ronallen6578 sssssh don’t tell anyone 😂😂😂😂
The Lt70 cuts like a hot knife thru butter.best wishes.
That thing sure is FAST, but can we also talk about that awesome log feed deck! What an awesome add on 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 this will triple production at least!
The live deck is sure nice!
Congratulations on the upgrade. Stay well be safe.
WOW,that was super fast, great upgrade.
The people at woodmizer best be backing up a brinks truck full of money straight to LCLY. Y'all are the best representatives and advertising any company could ever dream of. Keep up the great work and can't wait to see what y'all are going to be capable of with this new machine.
You can bet there's a deal going on.
Surely that machine was free.
I think not. I know what that cost not including the deck.@@BuckWheat0591
My LT40 super hydraulic 1996 is still going and the 40 hp Lombardini is still strong. But getting old and Fat maybe upgrading is nice . But not happening. Enjoy your mill and maybe one day when I head out east I’ll stop by.
You are a skilled operator Emerald and you and Kade compliment each other.🙁❤️
Wow you girls are on easy street now with that sweet 70. The log feeder just made your log grabbers old school.
What is a grapple.. Where I live.Those are called can't hooks. LOL
I grew up calling it a cantdog
@@jimmaag4274 About thirty miles to the north of .. where I grow up is a kid... They were called, can't dog..
Exceedingly well done as usual 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
