I've owned wood mizer LT 40 since 1987. Advice from a seasoned logger, always wear eye, ear and hearing protection. If you see any blue stain on the butt cut or as you are removing slabs, that's a 99 percent chance that you are going to find metal of some kind in the log.
For bigger logs and trees with a rough bark like hickory I switched to a bi-metal blade.
They are more expensive but are easier to touch up and last at least twice as long between sharpening.
I've cut 750 bd feet of Shag bark hickory with them before before sharpening.
I always out a few tablespoons of liquid fish detergent in my water for the blade lube.
A clean, sharp blade can double your daily board foot total.
My best ever investment was a metal detector. Consider getting one as soon as it is in your budget.
Awesome videos.
Been in the forest industry for 41 years. The portable mill and firewood processors I have worked with were profitable. Now semi-retired, cutting timber, firewood salvage and cutting lumber - well it is just fun! Great job of explaining how to do it right!
Teamwork makes the Dream work 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
I love watching you two work together, the love and respect you have for each-other, comes out, in the video..
🙏🏼🙏🏼 thank you so much
@@TimberMates each time you hit metal is it a total loss of a blade ? Or can it be fixed - resharpened ? What does new blade cost ?
@@wilsonnichols7088 It can be resharpened but really a new blade is only about 30 bucks, not a huge loss in the end. One day we might get the machine to sharpen them or hire it out to someone who has one
What your doing I would love to do but my wife is not like minded and a city girl, but you have found this one in a billion woman that has great bushcraft skills I've seen on her channel and now I know who her very fortunate husband is and your both blessed with each other more than you realize. It's when you don't have what you guys have is when we can appreciate how good a relationship can be working together as God intended!!!
Good to see a worthwhile Norwood HD36 sawmill vid on youtube after a month long dry spell..
You really seem to be enjoying your new work. Nice to see you smiling and happy.
Your new videos are very interesting.
Thank you so much Tom!
Hi Careena, Brandon, that is really cool, thank you, stay safe, be well my friends, and give Grizz a hug👍✌
Cool! I was exposed to a sawmill when I was a young lad. I could still smell it as I watched... Thanks!
You need to metal detect the logs before sawing them. Have a catspaw and fencing pliers this helps pull the nails out. Any trees that come from old farms will most likely have u shape type nails in them. Put some Dawn dish soap in the drip tank, it will keep the blade clean of any gunk build-up. Get some anchor-seal for the ends of logs, to keep checking down.
One really sweet looking helper. Not many wood workers built like her.
Very cool video! Achoo! Bless you Brandon! Careena I'm beginning to think there's nothing you can't do,you're definitely an inspiration to women(and men) everywhere! Stay safe! Love and hugs to you two and Grizz too!
Awe you are too kind! Thanks Stogie!!
I wanna see them juggling baby geese 🤯🤣🤣🤣
I guess you guys do it all!! And you also work so well together! Really enjoying these new videos.
I've always watched your videos. For some reason UA-cam picks and chooses what to send notifications on. This was over a year ago and I missed it. I've been subscribed since you told us about this channel. I love watching y'all mill the lumber you harvest from jobs. Cant wait to see it use on the new house build.❤️
Where on this earth did you find a woman who will stand by your side and help like that? Treasure her. Shes a blessing
@@Ragdillian 🤔 What’s wrong with you?
Great videos guys. Note the Hotrod mags., you don’t see the owners, they have a babe posed by the rod, just sayin.
Great to see the process from start to finish. It must be so satisfying to mill a tree trunk and then prepare it for a craftsman to take over and use it for a project that’s going to last for over a hundred years or so. Fascinating to watch guys.👍
Thanks David!!
Yeah, I could watch this all day.
What a great set-up, thanks for sharing...
Awesome piece of machinery and fantastic that you can mill your own lumber from the trees Brandon takes down, with the price of lumber these day's . enjoyed watching you folks mill those logs into lumber nice
Thanks 👍
Just found you guys and so glad I did!! Been watching Outdoors with the Morgans and Nathan from OTW for years. Brandon, don't hate me but your wife has the prettiest eyes on UA-cam! You two make a great team and I'm looking forward to more videos. Be safe doing what you do and Happy sawing!! Love from Alabama!
Awesome video again thanks, nice to see the different processes that you do, stay safe and keep smiling.
I love you two. Which I call TimberMates & TandemMates. Awesome couple!!!
Thanks Warren!! Rock on !
Just found your channel 👍
I don't know one woman who would help do this type of work. You two seem to work together so well. Going to watch all of your videos and catch up.
Good evening from Minnesota USA, you know I comment to help your chanel grow 😉 tonight I'm sitting on the deck, binge watching Timbermates, having a nice bourbon whisky and having a cigar!! Doesn't get much better than this! Well maybe watching Alexis Outdoors 😉😉
Haha you rock Patrick!! Thank you so much!
Good job Careena , you two work well together
Thank you so much 😀
wow I didn't know a dull blade would miss that much wood. Thanks for sharing.
Your filming and editing are really good! Thanks for sharing your work.
Thank you!!
You guys are awesome, fist Norwood video I watched!
Norwood didn't not take American express!
So I went with a Woodmizer!
Keep up with your videos, safe sawing friends
A 30 year Sawyer recently taught me that if you sticker your lumber way out at the very ends of your beams, cants or boards, it will reduce checking quite a bit. He also encouraged painting the ends of the logs asap off the stump with waxy paint (or pretty much any paint you can get a hold of) to slow the drying to reduce cracking and checking. Also, elevate log piles off the dirt or store them in a pond if possible.
That's my exciting comment! No go make some sawdust!
That is one nice timber saw. It seems to cut really nice. You two do great work together. Like your video’s.☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️
Thanks so much Roger!
Very cool. You guys certainly have a lot invested into your equipment.
Hard work makes excellent content 💪💚 Always good to see people appreciating Trees 😊 Thanks for sharing!!
Yo! Sick vid well shot cool tunes 🤙
Waddup Ted!! Thanks for watching my dude!!
Another nice toy! Thanks for showing what a nail can do to a band saw blade.
DIAMOND SAW CHAFFEE NY world's finest saw blades 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Great content! New Sub here, looking forward to more of your Channel Topics! I can relate to Saw blades/chains getting toasted. I've been Logging on my family Farm in Vermont for decades, and sometimes I run into old fencing nails that you can't see until it's too late. Oops...lol If you catch it in time, just a sharpening will fix it.
nice job,
You guys did great amazing job 👍👍😳😳👍👍👍👍😎
i would be just like Brandon sneezing with all the saw dust there!!! looks like alot of work but its worth it when you see all the great wood you create!! thanks for sharing
Great content, cool channel you two created.
Thanks Paul!!
i like your logo and how the 2 trees standing next to the log represents the both of you lol
Such an interesting process. I can just imagine the beautiful smell as your cutting. Great business to be in now with the price of lumber. Lol
That a nice looking log
That sawmill works pretty good!
Greetings from Missouri. Great video, glad I found your channel! Your techniques (like using the level to verify the log is turned perpendicular to the blade) are spot on. I've never known anyone who thought they had too many stickers. Nice editing, and I love your enthusiasm!
First video I seen of you two milling lumber. Great job with the video and hope to see more.
Hey guys, great video! When I first moved into my house 12 years ago the previous owner left 12 logs, 8 red oak and 4 walnut, so I hired a guy with a bandsaw mill to mill them into lumber for me. Blades were $50 a piece ( he warned me ahead of time)and we hit 4 nails in the first walnut log, so I feel your pain.
The lumber is still worth more though, and running the mill is just so much fun.
Cheers
Ohhh ouch!! Still really cool they left those logs though, I bet they both made some amazing looking slabs!
Great to you your new channel! Awesome setup...
Thanks for coming
I can't believe I'm binge watching your videos about tree cutting and milling. I'm in the southeast U.S. so I've cut up trees taken out by hurricanes. Major kudos on the work here. You're making it look way easier than it is. I'm looking forward to seeing what is next. After the wood dries out, I'm thinking that you'll run the lumber through a planer? Good content. I'm hooked!
What a beautiful wife you have look 👀 after her be safe with those tools
Rough sawn lumber is the best! Just had my friend cut all the framing out of hemlock for a 24x24 camp im building. Better quality and cheaper. The stores want $8 for a 2x4 that looks Ike a banana. Keep up the great job!
Haha so true!
Great video guys!
Thank you!
Good job mate. 👍🏼
Enjoyed the video. Nice equipment you guys have. Nice beams you got out of that narley old tree. 👍👍
another fab video, i hope you will still keep making them. Pat Whelan Ireland.
Yup; you nailed it. Thumbs up
prettiest girl on youtube
Another fun video! Keep them coming. You guys deserve a brewski after that one lol
Haha thanks Dalton!! And we certainly did enjoy a brewski afterward :P
Great job, very interesting to watch
Thanks Gary!
That's a sweet setup, very cool video. I'm a machinist and use the same basic technique for squaring up a piece of raw material. I cringe when I see someone establish their first side, then flip it 180 degrees (instead of rolling it 90 degrees) to cut the second side. I was also cringing that y'all aren't wearing safety glasses! I figure y'all know what you are doing, and your safety in other videos seems impeccable, but I couldn't help but mention it. Looking forward to more videos, say hi to Grizz from Texas.
Hey Guy's I'd posted on one of your other video but wasn't sure if you had seen it.Hey Guys here is a little FYI to help grow your channel, Ask your viewer
if they like your video to hit the Thumb up button. also tell them to subscribe so they won't miss you next new clip when come out. and if
they really liked to share with their friend and family that like the trimming, the stumping and even the milling, you guys have more to offer
than a lot of the other channels because you Guys are a full service Tree company. The only thing that I haven't seen you do is to dye your
chips different colors and then sell them, or even sell the fire wood that you all cut up.
Hey guys I hope you guys are doing okay that's a nice machine you got there, keep up the good work👷👷👷thanks for sharing your videos🎥🎥🎥be safe.
Yeah y'all probably get all kinds of trees and getting them close to the street probably find all kinds of medel. Enjoy it as always.
Very nice timbers.
Thanks 👍
First time viewer.
Enjoyed
Tom
Awesome, thank you!
Interesting to watch. My family owned and operated a sawmill back in the 70's and 80's. Quite a bit different from this mill of course. Nevertheless, same result. Good stuff.
Came here via your backpacking videos...I agree with the other commenters - these are fun and satisfying to watch. It looks like a lot of work, but it also looks like you're loving the work you do! I pray you draw in a lot of customers as they live vicariously through your day job! (){;o)
Fun to watch. ✌️👊
good safety glasses !!!
4:32 CASHEWWWWW! ...God bless you 😂
Cracking video. What a cool piece of kit that is
brandon and kareena love watching you two working together and ribbing eachother
hi there nice job john
Great machine😃😃🤩👍👍
No. Good, not great. I own it and looks like they've improved the bed and blade covers. Needs roller guides like the HD38. Had to replace my ceramic guides with roller guides.
So interesting to watch this process. Norwood needs to send you some blades for showing their saw in action. Darn nail! Would a metal detector pick those up? I'm sure you've thought of that. You two make a great team! Thanks for filming and showing.
A metal detector probably would have picked it up, and could be well worth the time if I had one. I’ve been looking into finding one
Great video guys! You have some great machinery! Wouldn't mind having one of those in the garden 😄👌👍
Awesome
It must be rewarding to see all your hard work turned into timber. From limbing the tree in the lift, chipping, grinding the stump and lastly to the mill. Quite a process, takes a lot of equip. What do you guys do with your cut offs and scrap? Do you have a wood boiler for heating your house?
Very rewarding indeed! No, we don't have a wood boiler yet, but one day we'll build our own place and get all set up with a wood burning furnace or boiler.
I have noticed on some other sawmill vlogs that has Norwood an the exit place of sawdust where it has 4 holes. They took a jigsaw or reciprocate saw an just cut all that away an made a big hole where dust comes out. That dust build up inside blade wheel will cause problems of blade running up an down during sawing.
that's probably a good idea, not sure why it wasn't that way from the factory??
That's what they said to. I think it's plastic so wouldn't be hard to open it up. I've watched a lot of vlogs trying to decide which one I one an what be right for me . An I've heard them talk about the dust building up on wheels an if it's pine or something that has a lot of sap in it sticking to the blade an causing it to vibrant an or make blade rise an drop when sawing. They talk a lot about using a solution or diesel to keep blade lubricated. Cook's recommend using machine oil or something to lubricate blade instead of a water solution. Make sense to me as long as blade don't slip.
In the business, we call that "going up and down" that the blade was doing after you hit the nail "snaking." Where I sharpen the saws, we run an 8"X30'6"X16 gauge horizontal bandsaw and a larger vertical bandmill. The vertical can hit a nail and keep cutting straight. But the horizontal will start snaking more often than not. I guess it's just the different dynamics between the types of mill.
Looking good. Oh for a mill with hydraulics, eh. My UA-cam learning came from Outdoors with the Morgan's and Out of the Woods for mill work. Tree work from Buckin Billy Ray...
Looks like the blades should be hacksaw quality since finding embedded nails and bolts is so common.
There are blades made for handling the metal surprises. We might spring for them in the future.
Brandon has a great Ahhhhh Choooo!
I hear the carbide blades are better and they're worth the money thanks for sharing the video
nice job. from mexico.. saludos
Thank you! Cheers!
I’m guessing that’s the chance you take when milling trees that were near houses, nailing swings and such.... beautiful wood though, especially now that prices are through the roof! Thanks for the episode
That mill is *awesome* !
Bet those blades aren't cheap to replace.
They aren’t probably as bad as you think. They are about 35$ each. Disappointing when one gets ruined but not the end of the world. Thanks for watching
Betcha Shawn James would have a use or two with those logs you’re milling 😉
Haha we’d love to build a cabin someday with the would we mill!
Just milling around today...👍
cool! Damn, what does a new blade set you back? Interesting reading all the comments here.
Thanks for checking it out Jason! New blades are only about $35 is, not too ba at all.
You should get yourself a metal detector and run it over your logs before cutting them it would save you a fortune on blades in the long run
Definitely something we are looking into!
TimberMates if you get one make sure you put it into all metal mode as they are usually built to ignore things like iron....especially iron nails. Give me a holler if you want any advice
Thanks man!
TimberMates no worries brother anytime
smart idea
Beautiful
Cool video, thanks for sharing. How much do the blades cost ? How long to change each blade ?
its about 35$ a blade and 5 minutes to change
I like your videos and was just wondering how often you have to change the ceramic guides on your Hd 36.
The blades arent supposed to touch them under normal use They last a long time
Great vid! Wish you had some eye and ear protection.. Again..Great info..Thanks!!
Awesome, can’t wait to see what you build with it!! Can you use the bark side for roofing or siding? Another great video guys.
The bark side makes great firewood lol not sure what else it would be good for really, too thick for roofing
How about siding for a small semi-primative shelter?
I was curious as to why you saw your flitches so thick? If you start your cut around 1” deep for large logs, you reduce waste and can get some nice 1” boards as you work down to your cant. Also, they’re a heck of a lot lighter to toss off!
Enjoy the videos, thanks for posting them!

Loving these vides. What will you do with the cut timber -sell it or build a cabin
Thanks! We’ll do a range of all of those things with the lumber we mill :)
cool channel
Up where i live in west Massachusetts they are taking down 200year old paper mills and alot of the sold wood beems got to be 20'-30feet solid 15×15 some are and their are thousands of the and a company came in and is buying all the realy nice ones he told me some are like gold amarican chest nut almost all was cut from virgin forest 200 to 100 years ago and its hard to mill but sells premium hard to find the wood
I need me one of those!
Nothing like having the proper equipment.
Maybe a metal detector would come in handy
