Curious, your thoughts on a mahoe vs turbo sawmill. I'm running a MD128 and have removable teeth, I never understood why most other sawmill companies are using blades without replaceable cutters.
Hey Kurt, the turbosaws look pretty cool. One thing I like about the Mahoe is that is cuts vertical and horizontal at the same time, then brings the board back. Saves a ton of work walking over and carrying the boards back to the pile. Also saves time not having to cut on the way back. And yeah I dont understand either, I just ordered some carbide tips for about $1.50 each, super economical. This mobile dimension mills look cool to.
Funny, you always see people destroy saw blades on wood-mizers. That would have completely destroyed a saw blade, that is if you could have got through all four nails in the first place.
Yes that is very true, circular saws are very tough, I kept cutting all day with those teeth after hitting nails, just in case there were some more hiding. I put new teeth on today so will have a video on how that works soon.
@@SharpeTimber Sounds good. I'll be looking forward to watching it. Did you film changing the teeth? It's interesting that you say that the teeth only cost $3.50 each. That's probably less than or equal to the cost of a bandsaw blade. assuming you don't hit any nails, approximately how many times can you sharpen the teeth before they have to be replaced? I saw on one of the other channels that a guy was using a pretty sophisticated metal detector that he used to run across every log. I think he commented check for metal or change teeth your choice! But I think those metal detectors are pretty expensive probably two or three thousand bucks I don't know. Depending on how often you run into nails, at some point in time it might be worth it? But you can buy a hell of a lot of teeth for $2,000.
Good choice in sawmill
Thanks! It has been awesome, we love it
Cat the supervisor?
