Great vid Sandy! Always a pleasure dropping by the red pine forest with you! Good set up there on tying in the extension into the lumber shed 💯👍. Great video work and editing as always! Nice to see a driving video with the mill on back of the DK and great as well showing so many good angles! Thanks again for having us by! Andrew from NB :)
Love Hammer & Nails !!!! Great job , love when ur working by urself and things fall , but U get there I was self employed for 40 yrs so I can relate to U ….. Keep up the good work Rob from the US of A 🇺🇸
30 degrees and outside working in a flannel shirt! You are a trooper. This fellow Ontarian here would be half naked and hugging the air conditioner! 😆🥶
Great video as always Sandy! For those bugs, try out a chemical at tractor supply (or Canada's equivalent store) called Permethrin. 8 ounces per gallon of water in a hand pump sprayer. It lasts 3 to 4 weeks and really cuts down the bugs. I always had to wear a head net and jean jacket because of the bugs and misquotes. The last few weeks after spraying, I have not needed them. I still have some but now it is bearable. Cant wait to see the next video
Man, you kill me with the ambidextrous hammering! One thought I forgot to mention last video, when I'm cutting multiple boards like you are, throw a clamp on them to keep them aligned - especially sawing with the chainsaw. Good job and we'll catch you on the next one....
Can't stand the nets on my head either.good job.I've had the same thing happen w the level.my brother in-law use to say that I shouldn't work alone it's dangerous so I said when are you coming over.i work 7 days a week during the daylight.lol
Man I hate the mosquitos too! I've been having good luck with Tiki torches with the mosquito repelling fluid in them. The local hardware store here sells two different mixtures of the fluid that both say they repel mosquitos. So I bought them both and put one type in one torch and the other type in the other one lol. Figure I get the best of both then. Between those two torches and a therma cell I barely see a mosquito!
That stiletto hammer make short work out of those spiral nails. They're hard to nail due to the spiral but so is the saying," A hammer looking for a nail." The nails didn't have a change and the job looks excellent.
Watching you build this gets me excited wanting to start a new building project also I really wish things were not so expensive now but sawing your own lumber does really help with the cost. Looks like you're doing a fantastic job keep up the great videos thanks Sandy
I hear ya there Jeff. It's hard to buy the building material with it so expensive. Saving money on the lumber does help but even nails aren't cheap anymore
I love waking up to one of your weekend videos to watch while I drink my morning coffee. Keep up the good work, and have a great 4th of July weekend. ( If you observe it in Canada}
I have mosquitos, gnats, and the little black flies that like going for my eyes and nose. Bugs are so much fun. 🤨 I found that taking garlic deters the biting insects. Take enough to not stink but close.
Howdy Sandy- you’re coming along nicely with the shed. Ain’t it fun framing up something by yourself? Been there, done that. Keep fighting the bugs lol. Thanks for sharing the video. Take care and God bless
My suggestion, and it's worth what you paid for, is to cross brace the old wood shed/new mill bldg with wire, overhead at beam height. Four eye bolts, some princess auto aircraft cable and two turnbuckles, ought to take the wiggle out of the new mill bldg. Great video! On the East coast we call putting on bug spray as "basting." There's no guarantee it'll stop getting bit, but you'll taste better.
Hey Sandy I have a HM 130 Max I had a problem with the log dogs falling out and hitting the ground so what I did is punch out the bottom roll pin and put a 1/4 bolt in them they don't fall out no more thanks for the videos
Question on the nails you are using, they look like a galvanized ring shank. Other than cost is there a reason you use them on rough cut lumber, is there an advantage or does it help with the shrinkage and twisting of the boards, which leads to my next question we are wanting to do a cabin out of 12x12 square rough-cut logs from our property wondering how much twisting you will get or expect from your 20ft header. keep up the great videos really appreciate you sharing them.
Hi Howie, Thanks for watching. These nails are common for framing in my area. These are 3.5" ardox galvanized nails (spiral design). Do a great job at providing shear strength and don't rust. I've built several buildings including my tiny house from green lumber and I don't end up with much twisting. My other sawmilshed beside this one had timber posts built of green lumber and fortunately they stayed straight as well
Looks like you could use a few more knee and cross braces on the original building. Noticed it wobbling a bit when you were nailing up high on the leg. Love watching you work on this. Getting me motivated to build mine. 😀
MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼……………….aaaaaaahhhhhhhh, the joy……….. I mean FRUSTRATION of building stuff by yourself!!😡 I do it all the time and believe me, it doesn’t get easier as you get older, good job btw. I don’t know if that beam you held with one hand, while you drove the nail with the other was green or not , but I made a mental note never to piss you off!! LOL Green or not, that took some strength and agility! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Hey Sandy, looking good and seems like fun! I'm planning to build a lean to off the side of my work shop to keep my HM126 woodlander out of the elements. Are you ever worried about wind lifting up your structure off the deck blocks? I am debating deck blocks or 10" builder tubes filled with quikrete an post holders cured in the concrete - maybe that's overkill?
Hey Bill! I’m in favour of concrete footings down into the ground for sure. In my case back in the woods amongst the trees I’m not as concerned about the uplift especially with no enclosed walla
Hello Sandy! 👋 Are you using 2x6s for your header? Gosh you're going to be done in no time! Hope your enjoying Canada Day weekend, is there anything special you do? What's your go to foods on holidays? On the 4th we quadruple up on desserts! I admit I've had a little sugar hangover a time or to the next day. 🙄 Take care and celebrate however you do! ✌🌈 🇺🇸 🇨🇦
Hi Jill! Nothing too special going on here aside from parades and fireworks. Yeah the 2x6 is what I extended the lumber shed with. Worked out pretty well I think
Hi sandy - hope you are going to triangulate those rafters somehow. Watching that original structure sway when you were pounding nails has me worried with all that valuable equiptment under it (and you). Those snow loads are no joke. I know, we get alot here in Maine too.
Looking good Sandy, sorry I've missed some of your videos. Just working on our new pole barn, all logs cut with my HM122. Can't imagine doing this project or all of yours without a sawmill. Is your ground mostly sand there?Keep the sawdust flying! 🪵🇨🇦🚜🔨🪚
Good job on the build. Enjoying seeing you make all of the cuts with a "gas powered cutoff saw". Have you verified that the tractor will fit under the new shed roof? At least far enough to pick up lumber from the lumber shed. Asking for a friend.
Thanks for watching Mike! I just read your comment and almost spit out my sludge because I didn’t even think about the tractor height haha. Lucky for me it’ll clear it but don’t tell anyone I didn’t plan that one out haha
Quick question Sandy. Cut some 14ft pine 6x6’s today on my HM130 and it seems to be cutting wavy instead of flat. Blade sharpness issue or tension issue? Your thought would be appreciated
Hey Chris! I’m thinking that if the blade starts to dull there may be more resistance when cutting through the log and so the blade heats up a bit cause if the blade to get slightly longer and the tension to drip slightly. This could lead to some very slight waves. That’s what I believe can happen but I could also be way out in left field. I’d likely pit a sharp blade on with the same tension and see if that fixes it
Hi Chris, funny you ask! I was milling spruce the other day and decided to try some older blades I had kicking around, just to see if they truly needed a sharpening. I find usually spruce or pine cut like butter compared to Ash, cherry, maple, etc. The first blade I used cut extremely wavy, the second one cut as straight as an arrow. Same log, same tension. I think it is fair to say it could be what Sandy says, or it could be a dull blade. I also wonder if blades might get damaged, like stretched out of round, warped? Might just be a bad blade I tried the other day. Who knows. My friend who sold me the mill gave me 25 used blades with it. Good luck!
Yeah bit of an extra effort but I think it makes for some interesting videos for sure. Was surprising to see the lose link arm as I didn't even know about it until I was editing the video
I live in NS. We have blackflies and Mosquitos . The ones in Ontario are different, I just got home from 2 week vacation in Kitchener ONT. Got bitten at the local park and at a close by petting zoo with my grandkids. My arms and legs are covered in welts and weeping puffy sores from the bites. Very sore and gross to look at because of the weeping. They are a different breed of bug all to gether, Vicious little BAS%#RDS
Great question. I have considered it recently actually but I don't have any cedar or similar water resistant wood available and so I'm going to likely haver to stick with an alternative. I wonder if wood like Pine or Spruce would hold up as a shingle
@@sawingwithsandy not to be obstinate LOL.. but strapping is used when you have two sheets of plywood nail together side by side on a stud and you want to secure those two sheets of plywood together better.. in that case you nail in blocking in between the studs place the sheet of plywood on top nail them down then put metal strapping over the top of the plywood in line with the blocking below and you know them together.. it's something that we do in earthquake zones on engineered structures. But I do know what you mean when you call it strapping and I have no problem with that cheers and carry on
I'm going to likely just throw down some boards if I decide to have a solid surface other than the soil. I need to be able to back the trailer in and out of the shed easily so want to avoid a raised platform
Hi Sandy thanks for suffering, just to allow us to join you, cant be nice with all these bugs, bet you are happy at using your own wood or it would be more than a second mortgage you would have to put up your first born, the government want blood these days and not just in Canada. Stay safe and healthy, and watch out for that monkey that is running around, it is so sneaky.
Yeah sure is expensive these days. Feel very fortunate to have my own ability to make lumber. Surely keeps me making projects otherwise it may be too costly
By now maybe you remember me from the many who comment on your page. I am going to "Play safety sally" so here goes.. Operating a tractor with out the slow moving warning signs, going across a narrow bridge with no safety rails, plus when was that bridge safety rating done? Without our government checking on the load limit, you might of crashed through... killing valuable mosquito larva, the ones that are on the endangered species list! Parking the loaded tractor without proper chocking devices to keep it from rolling back and killing ants and other little bugs our birdies love to eat hence starving them to death.... oh this list could take up pages... I never once heard a horn blow when your line of sight was impaired going through the tree limbs. I told you that our government knows what is good for you.... and then building without a safety inspector on sight should a board fall and break a foot or put your eye out.... no safety helmet to keep that brain safe... As Gretta said "How dare you!!" I tell you, if you apply all the rules they dream up to ream us with.. the beams would rot off before the finish of this fine structure. There is a time for precision an there is a time for "close enough" ... just think, we will be wearing fire extinguishers to just drive a nail. I will apologize now if you don't find my brand of humor funny... after all, dad called me a half wit half breed. I hope for all things to go well here on the build... I do kinda wish that you had doubled the additional length of the mill as you will always want more for extensions or other things that do come up.. Have you considered raising the other mill to a higher milling height as you said, bending that you don't notice till something does change. Just asking Sandy I forgot another feature... the building plans that are always nailed in the sight area... ?LOL
Nice bridge over the drainage!!!!
Thanks for that! Keeps things nice and tidy on the trails for sure
Great vid Sandy! Always a pleasure dropping by the red pine forest with you! Good set up there on tying in the extension into the lumber shed 💯👍. Great video work and editing as always! Nice to see a driving video with the mill on back of the DK and great as well showing so many good angles! Thanks again for having us by! Andrew from NB :)
Your new saw mill will be happy Sandy. A home of its own. Thanks for sharing
Absolutely!
Love Hammer & Nails !!!!
Great job , love when ur working by urself and things fall , but U get there
I was self employed for 40 yrs so I can relate to U …..
Keep up the good work
Rob from the US of A 🇺🇸
Thanks Rob! Sure is nice feeling of accomplishment when it's all done knowing I built it myself
30 degrees and outside working in a flannel shirt! You are a trooper.
This fellow Ontarian here would be half naked and hugging the air conditioner! 😆🥶
Haha I do it more so for the bugs
Spray the bug spray on the outside of your hat as well - it helps
Happy Day after Canada Day Sandy. New sawmill shelter is taking shape nicely.
Thanks for that Ray! Coming along real nice
Thanks once again for the great content. I sure wish I was as effective with both hands and a hammer. Nice skill to have.
Anytime Chris!

Boy you're deadly with that hammer you don't miss much good job
I’ve got a few hand scares where I have missed but sure reminds me to pay attention
I like the speedy Gonzala nailing lol 😆 😂 🤣 coming right along one more push and you will have a shelter for the new mill have a wonderfully day
haha if only I could actually nail that much
Call it the Minnow SSS .... Sandy's sawmill shack lol... cheer's
Hey I like it!
Can't stand the nets on my head either.good job.I've had the same thing happen w the level.my brother in-law use to say that I shouldn't work alone it's dangerous so I said when are you coming over.i work 7 days a week during the daylight.lol

I’ve heard good things about the thermacel and torches but never tried them. I’ll have to do that
south paws do have a natural curve after all. especially when it comes to nails ;)
hahaha
Lefty troubles ! good name for another video !
Haha isn’t that the truth
Hillbilly hideout 3.0 is coming along. Will be nice to have a place to put the new saw
I like the name!
That stiletto hammer make short work out of those spiral nails. They're hard to nail due to the spiral but so is the saying," A hammer looking for a nail." The nails didn't have a change and the job looks excellent.
Yeah those nails do a great job of holding tight. Taking them out is a bit of challenge so I try to avoid that haha
Your doing a awesome job!!!! I learn a lot by watching the channel. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for that! Won’t be long now
I love waking up to one of your weekend videos to watch while I drink my morning coffee. Keep up the good work, and have a great 4th of July weekend. ( If you observe it in Canada}
Glad to have ya here on the channel Wallace! It is indeed Canada Day weekend here. Thanks for that
In Canada we celebrate July 1st as Canada Day but don't observe July 4th as a holiday
I have mosquitos, gnats, and the little black flies that like going for my eyes and nose. Bugs are so much fun. 🤨 I found that taking garlic deters the biting insects. Take enough to not stink but close.
I'll end up eating the garlic as I love the stuff to eat haha
Some call them “stringers”. Love watching your channel.
Glad to have ya on the channel. Thanks again for watching!
This is looking really good. Now you need to think about building an extension so you can have a bunk at your sawmill complex...lol
haha I hear ya there Barry
Howdy Sandy- you’re coming along nicely with the shed. Ain’t it fun framing up something by yourself? Been there, done that. Keep fighting the bugs lol. Thanks for sharing the video. Take care and God bless
Thanks for that. Sure can be a battle but hoping the bugs will be on the losing end

Thanks for sharing that. Definitely in need of some bracing or supports as you mention. Don't want this thing falling down that's for sure
hahah "blasting" I like it
Great progress on the wood shed! Great job 👏
Thanks for that Mark !
Hey Sandy I have a HM 130 Max I had a problem with the log dogs falling out and hitting the ground so what I did is punch out the bottom roll pin and put a 1/4 bolt in them they don't fall out no more thanks for the videos
Thanks for that Danny. Sure is a good idea that I certainly can use
You sure swing a mean hammer there Sandy lol. What’s the deal with the spiral nails? Always wondered what they’re for. Sheds looking great!!
Thanks Russell! The spiral galvanized nails are common for framing where I live as they hold the wood well
I keep looking for Kota , my pup would be chasing lizards thanks for. Show
Koda is getting older these days and hates being out in the heat and bugs so he's reluctant to come out with me much
Hi Sandy ,, You need a couple of decent F clamps ,, at least 600 mm , would make your life a bit easier,,
You’re right on there !

I agree with ya there Russ. Going to be sure to add those in to keep things well in place. Sure is a fun project if you do decide to tackle yours

noticed the same thing
Yeah absolutely .I"ll be adding additional bracing to keep the structure solid
That will be nice! Though I don't understand the new post on the shed. A ~6-8" long piece of 2"X6" nailed to the old post would have done the job..
The new post didn't line up with the old post as the new beam is not in line with the old beam with the new beam slightly in front of the old beam
Looking good Sandy, do you have problems with deer ticks too
Thanks Brian. Luckily very few ticks around these parts
Looking good Sandy, sorry I've missed some of your videos. Just working on our new pole barn, all logs cut with my HM122. Can't imagine doing this project or all of yours without a sawmill. Is your ground mostly sand there?Keep the sawdust flying! 🪵🇨🇦🚜🔨🪚
Bet that pole barn of yours will turn out nice! The red pine bush is pretty Sandy
@@sawingwithsandy lol I see what you did there.
Love your videos. Just wondering what is the future of the old mill. You don't see to use it anymore or rarely anyways.
I'm not too sure at this point John. I'll probably play it by ear over the next little while to see if it hangs around much longer
Good job on the build. Enjoying seeing you make all of the cuts with a "gas powered cutoff saw".
Have you verified that the tractor will fit under the new shed roof? At least far enough to pick up lumber from the lumber shed. Asking for a friend.

When I saw the level fall, I'll bet you were thinking you wish that you had 3 hands !
Am I right ?
Haha you can say that again
What wood do you use and do you build right off your mill (green) or do you dry your lumber first?
I typically use pine and often build with wood right off the sawmill
👍
Thanks John!
It must be work to setup those undercarriage videos. But hey you found a maintenance issue for your efforts.
Yeah bit of an extra effort but I think it makes for some interesting videos for sure. Was surprising to see the lose link arm as I didn't even know about it until I was editing the video
I live in NS. We have blackflies and Mosquitos . The ones in Ontario are different, I just got home from 2 week vacation in Kitchener ONT. Got bitten at the local park and at a close by petting zoo with my grandkids. My arms and legs are covered in welts and weeping puffy sores from the bites. Very sore and gross to look at because of the weeping. They are a different breed of bug all to gether, Vicious little BAS%#RDS
Sounds like a great trip to Ontario except for the bugs. They sure are bad right about now. Hard for me to be outside without Deet on
Is that a Stilletto hammer ?
Yessir
Ever consider wooden shingles?
Great question. I have considered it recently actually but I don't have any cedar or similar water resistant wood available and so I'm going to likely haver to stick with an alternative. I wonder if wood like Pine or Spruce would hold up as a shingle
You can get pine shingles they treated but being thin they soak up treatment well or guess they could be spray coated
A Like & A Comment For The Algorithm.
Thanks for that Tony
Who ever is calling it perlins are wrong....perlins are put up on edge giving it a structural value ...we call it skip sheeting
Yeah I know what ya mean. I tend to call it strapping
@@sawingwithsandy not to be obstinate LOL.. but strapping is used when you have two sheets of plywood nail together side by side on a stud and you want to secure those two sheets of plywood together better.. in that case you nail in blocking in between the studs place the sheet of plywood on top nail them down then put metal strapping over the top of the plywood in line with the blocking below and you know them together.. it's something that we do in earthquake zones on engineered structures.

And what about a flooring for it or did you forget what happened last time when you had no fool in there
I'm going to likely just throw down some boards if I decide to have a solid surface other than the soil. I need to be able to back the trailer in and out of the shed easily so want to avoid a raised platform
One man working alone makes for a piss, poor crew. I know, I do it all the time myself.
Yeah allows for great thought but can be a slow go
Hi Sandy thanks for suffering, just to allow us to join you, cant be nice with all these bugs, bet you are happy at using your own wood or it would be more than a second mortgage you would have to put up your first born, the government want blood these days and not just in Canada.

Yeah sure is expensive these days. Feel very fortunate to have my own ability to make lumber. Surely keeps me making projects otherwise it may be too costly
dont eat bannas or sugar foods, eat or drink citrus fruits or homemade citrus drinks without the sugar.
