Love the name MOTH and what it stands for! Good video to see what it reality looks like. Not scripted, not just showing a perfectly edited video. Love it!!
It always makes me happy to see families involved in making use of bgg their natural resources. I wish I had access to a portable sawmill when I was running the farm.
Yeh, she's a real trooper. That long dress is cause for a bit of concern, but she managed well. By the way, you've got a great UA-cam channel. Sawmilling, mushrooms, ham radio, & solar... looks like we've got a lot in common. If you're ever in southwest Missouiri (60 miles west of Springfield), let me know (and bring your mandolin).
Bet you can't wait to get going with the mill! Drop me a line, if there's any question I can answer. I'm working on a series on building the 36, but the first one (building the frame and track) is already on UA-cam. ua-cam.com/video/E7F1SWyn4nA/v-deo.html
Great video with tips that will help me when I build my mill. Love the cooperation and mutual respect. I noticed the dump trailer in the background. That’s another tool I’d like to add to my arsenal :-). Thanks Dave!
Thanks, Greg. I always enjoy meeting fellow sawyers & swapping ideas and stories. Dump trailer would definitely be an asset, especially for firewood. Best of luck in building your mill, & let me know how you're getting on with it.
I'd have liked that, too. Then I could have sold it and bought a band mill sooner. I've worked around circular sawmills and, especially for a one-man operation, a thin kerf band mill is safer and more efficient.
Good question. Every mill has its own tensioning recommendations, but I've run across people who are afraid to crank it down tight enough. If the blade cuts straight and stays on the bandwheels, it's probably ok. If the bearings are running hot, you might want to back it off a bit. I'm working on a universal tension gauge.
With an impact driver (there are close to a thousand nuts & bolts), it would probably take around 30 hours. It took me several weeks, because I was making a video of the process and having to stop to re-position the camera, or disassemble and re-shoot a step from a different angle. I posted a video series of building the HD38MAX, and will soon start shooting a video of building a HD36V2.

Dave I’m wondering if there is a specific way to cut a log according to end grain? Vs just cutting to maximize yield. Maybe I missed this information in other videos but if not maybe you could give us a run down with your experience
Hi, Jethro. Great idea for a video. Yes, the end grain of a log can tell a lot of the story of what's inside a log. For example, cutting parallel to the fork in a log (especially walnut) gets that fancy feathered grain. Off-center growth rings can indicate stress in a log, and there are ways of cutting to minimize the board bowing up or sweeping sideways as you cut.
I think this should have a deadman switch type of latch so someone cant accidentally bump the throttle and engage the blade whilst someone is say adjusting log etc.
You sound like somebody from OSHA. That would be a just another dumb electronic part to fail after the first time out in the rain that most people would end up bypassing anyway
You can still cut a lot of good lumber on a smaller mill... just takes a little longer. No matter what mill you have, eventually you'll push it to the max. For bigger logs, you can quarter the log lengthwise with a chain saw and mill 1/4 of the log at a time. I do that on occasion.

I just bought a Norwood HD 36...
I did it because of Dave Boyt's videos and the quality of the product. These folks in the video are awesome too!
Love the name MOTH and what it stands for!
Good video to see what it reality looks like. Not scripted, not just showing a perfectly edited video. Love it!!
Hi, Denver, thanks for the kind words. Hope to meet you soon
Good video and great couple eager to learn
Yeh, the're good people. But just try remembering the names of all those young 'uns!
Nice job Lady and Gentlemen.
It always makes me happy to see families involved in making use of bgg their natural resources. I wish I had access to a portable sawmill when I was running the farm.
The sawmill is a great way for generations to work together-- just gotta keep an eye on the young 'uns & not let us old folks over do it.
Loved seeing Skye jump in there. That there is a team.
Yeh, she's a real trooper. That long dress is cause for a bit of concern, but she managed well. By the way, you've got a great UA-cam channel.

Moth land that's creative
Thanks for the comment. Maybe they should call it "my own twenty hands". That's a passel of young'uns!😆
Awesome video Dave.. 👍 From Cadillac Michigan. Fellow Norwooder..
Thanks, Justintime. Always good to hear from a fellow "Norwooder".
Love all your Videos Dave. Got my shipping date for my HD36 Pro. Should see it in about a week. Pretty excited!

good hands on training with new costumer
Thanks. They're off to a great start.
Sure would have liked to have inherited a good old commercial circular saw mill with edgers and all acutrements
I'd have liked that, too. Then I could have sold it and bought a band mill sooner. I've worked around circular sawmills and, especially for a one-man operation, a thin kerf band mill is safer and more efficient.
Hi Dave,How do you know when the blade is tight enough?
Good question. Every mill has its own tensioning recommendations, but I've run across people who are afraid to crank it down tight enough. If the blade cuts straight and stays on the bandwheels, it's probably ok. If the bearings are running hot, you might want to back it off a bit. I'm working on a universal tension gauge.

Thanks Dave.
@@victorjohnston72 Any time!
How long did it take you to assemble your mill?
With an impact driver (there are close to a thousand nuts & bolts), it would probably take around 30 hours. It took me several weeks, because I was making a video of the process and having to stop to re-position the camera, or disassemble and re-shoot a step from a different angle.

Don't think the motor will fire with covers off..
@@jaytodd5809 watt i mean is that the lever needs a latch to prevent accidental activation [ eg flip the latch engage the throttle.
@@michaeljameson1046 If anyone gets anywhere near the controls while I'm loading or turning a log, I just holler at 'em.
You sound like somebody from OSHA. That would be a just another dumb electronic part to fail after the first time out in the rain that most people would end up bypassing anyway
@@daveboyt6810 Do you agree that it could be made safer without much effort.
Use a business card to adjust the guides
Or use a folded-over $20 bill. Then send it to me.
🤣
I'm still pissedy saw only cuts 29 inch's wide
