Sawing Cedar Logs with the Vallee Big Red Saw Mill- E54

  • Опубліковано 6 тра 2021
  • Jason and his father Charlie are sawing out eastern white cedar saw stock with the new Vallee Big Red saw mill from Pascal Metals. They use the Kubota B2601 tractor paired with the T1750 Kranman Hydraulic timber trailer to load the saw logs onto the table. The Honda 520 Foreman ATV and trailer are used to haul the saw stock away and the Husqvarna 550 XP Mark II is used to cut the wane into firewood slabs. A nice little operation and a great way to spend a morning. Welcome to Oak Mountain!

      Thanks for watching our videos! We want to make more sawing videos in the future but our focus has been on firewood for the most part to date.

    Great to see your dad in your operation! Or his operation. And that Tiny earns her keep is nice too! I wish my dog could pick up refundables! All the best, Jeff and Leslie.

      Thanks! We are still figuring things out but we are definitely in a good position to work the woodlot and add value to our wood now. Love the smell of fresh cedar... We appreciate your support for our channel!

    Great video, nice to see father and son working together!
    I saw a lot of great reviews of the Pascal Metal mills, would love to see some larger/bigger wood on that saw mill.
    keep up the great videos
    Cheers from Quebec

      Most of the trees on our property would be maximum 16” diameter. We are trying to clean up blow downs and insect damaged first, but do have plans for some larger stock soon. Thanks for watching our channel! -Jason

      Thanks Grampie ! The mill runs great and it's lot of fun. Now when I see a piece of hardwood I can cut my own stock for woodworking etc. We enjoy watching your channel, keep up the good work.

    The guy my brother works for bought one of those mills last fall he really likes it I'm definitely considering one for my next mill I've often wondered if they have a charging system for the battery?

    • @OakMountainAcotts
      @OakMountainAcotts  Рік тому +1

      Hi, I checked with Dad and he said the sawmill has a charger for the battery built right into the unit. So the little Honda motor will look after the battery charging as well. Hope this helps, Jason.

    What do you run for lubricant on blade
    What size engine

    • @OakMountainAcotts
      @OakMountainAcotts  2 роки тому

      Hi Shawn, the blade lubricant is water with some Dove dish soap added. The engine is a 20 HP Honda with electric start. Thanks for watching! Jason

    • @ValleeForestryEquipment
      @ValleeForestryEquipment Рік тому +1

      @@OakMountainAcotts Although often used by sawyers, dish soap has degreasing properties, which is counterproductive for the purpose of lubricating the blade. We recommend a mixture of water and organic cutting oil for optimal performance and to extend your blades' life.
