I built my own dryer last year, I build live edge tables and repair power tools, I remember working on a saw mill about 40 years ago and the old guy who own the mill came in one week end and painted every moving tool RED, and the log turner was one of the things he painted, never met a log I didn't like, grown and cut in the USA, if anything has happen about covid-19 is that we have learned something, and it is time to start acted on it, Made in the USA we could bring back millions of job back to this country. even in lumber, cut on my friends, wash your hands and stay safe, thanks again for a great vid.
That machine sings now! It was so cool that you cobbled it together and used it before all the repairs so that we can hear the difference between a worn mill & a beautifully rebuilt one. The carriage rides those rails like a new rail car now. It just sounds so smooth. That engine hums too. She sounds like a happy bee. Always a thrill to watch master tradesmen working at their craft. Thanks for a other great video.
There is NOTHING like watching a sawing video by Mark Galicic with THE Eddie Horvath! Thank you for brightening my day! That is one nice log turner! I could never imagine having a mill where I would have to manually turn logs! Too much work! Happy Easter to you, Eddie and your families!
I just now (10-19-2022) found this "movie" as John Clark says, and the difference with camera work and more important the sawing is very satisfying to see. An oldie but a goodie! Also glad you both survived the epidemic, and now we have ZZ Mark!
Mark, the log Turner works really good now, I still wish I could smell the aroma of fresh cut lumber and also the sound of the saw singing, You can hear it slightly,but it's nothing like being there in person to appreciate all the sounds,sights and aromas that go with a sawmill.
Mark, you probably would never get the chance to saw a Ponderosa Pine log, kinda tough when it grows out west, lol but I like all the logs you DO get to saw, that's why I like your videos so much, one of the reasons is because I am so mechanically minded and over curious about a lot of things. You and Eddie are doing a great job. I know I've asked you this before, but I'm in the market for a well built,solid wood 4 or 5 drawer Dresser, most places I've tried all they have is particle board, but I'll keep looking
Thank you from this side of the pond both of you and your families keep and stay safe, as usual great video again thanks all you over the pond stay safe.
I just got done watching the log turner’s and you guys were practicing distance from Covid.I am kind of said .I lost 😞 my dad do to it.I love you guys!😎😎😎👁🤟👉
You two man are a great team and that was some nice wood...I'm sure I could smell it here in Cape Breton...You just know so much and anyone here watching can't help but learn from you...Take care...
Log turner works better, doesn't disappear in the bottom but grabs the log lower, less tear out.All good here in the Yukon, maybe 5 cases of the made in China flu, spent the last 2 weeks harvesting 125 trees out in the forest for this summers cabin build on the bandsaw ,thanks again for another interesting sawmill video.Happy Easter
The log Turner worked beautifully and I love red oak we have a fare amount out here on the west coast along with white oak thanks for the show Gentalmen...
Always great videos from Bus Motor Productions. When you guys go to work you don't mess about. I like that, oh yah plus the bellow of the 6-71 Detroit Diesel. LOL
mark galicic not only the edger but please explain/show the entire process downstream of the saw. What board goes where and why. Great video as always. Thank you.
I will be watching for your kiln videos . I was thinking about doing one in a 20 ft container . Glad the turner is working better for you . It is Nice to see your work paying off .
You mentioned adding a kiln and a shipping container. Ramp dirt on sides of container to hold the heat leaving front and back accessible for loading and heater hookup lines for fuel, add one of those cast iron radiant tube ceiling heaters like they use in the garden section of almost every Walmart. you can get the burner assembly for about $400 and the tubes about $50 a section and to save money some run on waste oil then add salvaged furnace fans to circulate the air through the lumber stacks. (Kiln on a budget) Add a 500 or 1000 gal oil tank (check your local zoning) and let your neighbors know they can dump waste oil from their cars and you can heat your kiln for free.
Great job on the turner. I didn’t see any wasted motion on those two logs. It looks good and it works good so one 👍 for Mark and one 👍also for TEH. Industrial sized man glitter was in abundance today! 😎👍👏🇱🇷
The log turner looks like it is a much more precise tool now. To bad you can't rig up an automatic carriage tracker on the camera, but I saw what you built and that works great! My idea would just be something more to break.
Hey Mark I looked at a few old episodes and found the reason for the hoses more visible is the camera on the outside! Problem solved! Thanks MB from Long Island NY
That is SO true, when you rush, THATS when accidents happen, Better to be a little slower and come out careful, Kinda like the old saying, slow and steady wins the race.
Hello Mark and Eddie , Glad you guys are doing well over here in Oregon i live in Josephine County there are only 16 cases here most of them are in Portland but down here less people but were doing good here , Man you need to paint the whole thing now that log turner is sweet , you guys take care see on the next
Hi Mark and T.H.E. and that was some FINE sawing and FINE lumber! Pretty red oak and the bus motor got to burn up some soot if it ever had any! We're fine here and sure hope all yall are too, BUT the whole world is going straight to hell in a hat box, looks like. The worse part is that it's going to get that even if you mind your OWN business, everybody around will HELP you mind yours and snitch on every little thing. Getting goofier by the second. Our son-in-law is the head surveyor on a big development/golf course job and there was a landscaper came in wearing a mask and gloves, trying to see what he needed to do. I'd like to see him do hard labor with that garb on and not vapor lock. Beats all I've EVER witnessed. So yall remain calm and just stay hid. We will and GBWYall! Blessings galore from us Hillbillies!
Good vid Mark ,. I have an idea about the killem . Have you thought about getting 2 containers , cut the backs out but them together weld them up Yes a tunnel killem , then rollers on the floor and line the sides to prevent the od stick from gaming the pallet in the tunnel . All so using pallets would give you the under flow of hot air escentual for drying timber , Hope this idea helps ,
G'day mate, I've had a look around, next video tell us your dream on how the kiln will look (more info) it's a big World out there. Search - kiln, 40 ft .... size fron say a 12 in pipe to wow!! Best bet get it out of weather as soon as. I have seen where after 40 years uncovered sawings I forgot l had that!! Stay safe.
I have worked at a few sawmill's during my younger year's , such as J.W.Porta & Son's Heyfield , Victoria , Australia - Cabbage Tree Creek Sawmill near Orbost Vctoria , Australia & Brodrib Automatic Sawmill Orbost , it's not a job for the faint hearted in the Hardwood Forests ,as most of the people are rough & rugged here is Aussie ..... I did about five year's of it although my full time job was with the Australian Army , when I was on leave that's when I decided that I was lacking the ruggedness of the outdoor's , so I got my gear together put it all on my Kawasaki 900 & went looking for an adventure !!
@@Builder99 Yes cobber it was an adventure , I was bought up in a semi = rural area , so when I left school I took on a job as a Dairyhand on a farm , from there I got a job with a Forestery Company & learnt about different types of tree's that grow in certain area's of Victoria , I stayed in that job for 5 year's then tried my hand at working on the railway , but wasn't suited to working in the City , so i gave it up & went back to the bush , anyway the rest is what I wrote last time , in my life so far I have had plenty to do & I am happy to just sit back now and look at the life I had when I was younger !!
Nice mill, wondering why you always keep the log so far forward on the carriage and not using that last dog?I ran a sawmill for many years Lane mill and edger. Do miss it.
Oh OK Hard to judge by a video. Years ago I started a sawmill in much the same way with a partner , we started with a lane 00 mill no edger and ended up with a Lane #1 semi automatic with Barry feed. ,Mellott log turner ,lane edger , Morebark em16 debarker, Forestall duster for waste wood . good times . We sawed mostly eastern white pine hemlock white oak, and did a lot of custom sawing. keep up the great videos
Looks like you did a good job in the turner. One of my sons works at a mill, they do just eastern white pine. A small mill producing around 90,000 board feet a day and they use the sawdust to run boilers to produce steam for the kilns.
Is there a location on the bus motor for you to add a hydraulic pump to power the sawdust blower? Seems like it would be better to utilize the bus motor for power instead of buying gasoline plus now that the wall hides the sawdust blower you wouldn't really know when blower runs out of fuel. Or can you add to the hydraulic pump that already exists to power the blower? Merely trying to possibly improve the ole bus motor sawmill. Cheers!
Thank you for the video.I'd like to second some of the comments; edging and what happens to the lumber after it leaves the saw.Those 1 X12's, are you worried about them twisting or warping? When you stick them will you weight them down somehow?Will be very interested in you all constucting the kiln.
Did I understand correctly , is lumber cut from the center of the log less desirable than lumber cut from the outer part of the log ? Thanks , enjoy the videos . :-) Wyr God bless
Thanks Mark (And THEY Eddie) Looks like the log turner is starting to hold its own again. If you have any trouble finding a 40 container, let me know. I have a source that is up North of Pittsburgh on I-79 that can hook you right up,and deliver without a problem. Yes, a little oak sawing did help this cold afternoon. 70°and sunny one minute and 38° and snowing the next, Baaaaahhhhh... I'm ready for warmer weather. And some social distancing Turkey Hunting.
mark galicic right now is a really good time to get a container Mark, the prices are way Down On em right now and here in NC I can get a 40’ HC and it is 9’6” tall for $2,900 delivered.
Mark, when you get the dry kiln in operation do you have a building to put the dry lumber in? One that is temperature controlled to keep the humidity out.
Just my opinion, but you should tip your camera down a hair more to catch more of the log entering the blade. A little less sky and more about sawing. Thx Btw, log turner looks great!
@@markgalicic7788 You flipped the can't @ 28:30, for example. Why not continue there without turning it? Sorry to bother you, love your work, thank you!
I just can't wait for the next video you make. I saw on another site that they had a saw very similar to yours, but it also contained a vertical cutter that allowed them to cut board vertically before they ran it through the horizontal saw blade. They ended up with a board without the bark. It was between the controller and the loading rack. Is this available for your saw?
Robert I worked on a mill that had a vertical edger all controlled by the sawyer,no lasers back then. Made the sawyer think but he got the hang of it pretty quick
I would love to hear from T.H.E. Eddie during the cutting process. Put a mic on him. You two obviously know what you two are thinking . I would love to hear him.
@@markgalicic7788 NO not during the cutting process. Before the cutting starts. I see him throwing scrap wood in a pile, I under stand that. But I also see him stacking wood in a couple of other places . I was just interested in what he is doing and thinking.
I know that your not supposed to clean a Detroit engine unless your looking for new oil leaks but as an old 'diesel dummy' I sure wish you would give that old Bus motor a bath. That Detroit green paint looks real good without all that black on it.
You always rotate logs 3/4 of a spin counter-clockwise after completing a side ... wouldn't it be better to ever the motor and the chain, so you spin a log 1/4 spin clockwise?
HI MARK I seen 1 👍👌 man log turner use turn logs by ✋ hand he didn't use a cant hook very much 😉 he use to turn for dad and another sawyer he was a great man 👍👏😉😀 a little bit older than myself that 😉👍 fool would laugh like a fool full of jokes OMG 2 24 2022
I hope I never go through another week like last week as I cried hard for the friends I lost. Two were corona 19, and one traffic fatality. One was a guy who refused to be tested and had been putting off going to be tested. He waited too long and it was hard. The next tho is one that will need to be discussed. This friend worked at home depot, he stood six foot four and in good health, he was sixty three. He didn't feel well tuesday and they sent him home to be safe. He got home and felt better but next morning calls his son in law and says will you take me to the auto store as I need some parts for my truck. His son in law is also a friend an prince of a guy. He told him yes he would but why wasn't he working? He told them that he didn't feel well tuesday so they sent him home to get tested. So dad, did you get ahold of the doctor. Not yet but will get my truck fixed and go then. Dad, call the doctor now and I am going to call too. If your sick then your putting your daughter and our kids at risk... dad said your right, I will, i wasn't thinking straight and they hung up on each other. that was already in the evening hour so son calls him and said what is the doctor saying. Oh I will be okay till tomorrow and I can come in at the morning hour. Son talks to daughter and said dad ain't making sense like he normally is, he sounds confused, we better get ahold of the doctor and find out more right now, we can't risk the kids either. So doctor said that "Dave had called to make a appointment" and he told the doctor that he thought his dad was sounding confused. So the ambulance is dispatched an he met them at dads with his wife in their car. Dave doesn't answer the door so he unlocks it an he and ambulance crew go in. Here is Dave in bed, he had past away in his sleep and did look content...... From tuesday, then wednesday and thursday death is caused from corona 19. I know i messed part of this up as the way an how time did get by but dead in three days is solid.. That was quick for someone who was just never sick, they lived in the Edmonton area of canada. I would have to think he did contact it through a customer as they have snow yet and it really isn't a high tourist area. This family is torn up and the what if's and what not, a very close family who the son in law did do the right thing and get the doctors involved. I really LIked Dave and will miss him. He was a very kind man who generally showed using common sense more
Morgan Adair sorry for your loss. My brother told me a story the other day. Lady goes to Boston to visit ,goes out to eat, comes home ,doesn’t feel good,calls work and they say come on in,at work she tells her boss she is not feeling well, the boss says just stay, about a day or Two she gets tested and finds she is infected.
I live in California. We are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Our governor acted the fastest in the country so we are going to make it. How well did your governor do?

I will be watching for your kiln videos . I was thinking about doing one in a 20 ft container .
Glad the turner is working better for you . It is Nice to see your work paying off .
thanks Robin.
You mentioned adding a kiln and a shipping container. Ramp dirt on sides of container to hold the heat leaving front and back accessible for loading and heater hookup lines for fuel, add one of those cast iron radiant tube ceiling heaters like they use in the garden section of almost every Walmart. you can get the burner assembly for about $400 and the tubes about $50 a section and to save money some run on waste oil then add salvaged furnace fans to circulate the air through the lumber stacks. (Kiln on a budget) Add a 500 or 1000 gal oil tank (check your local zoning) and let your neighbors know they can dump waste oil from their cars and you can heat your kiln for free.
we are going to insulate the inside & a DH kiln.
That is some beautiful lumber...nice job!
thanks James.
I really enjoy your videos. A good friend of mine has a band mill every chance i get i go and do what Eddie does
at least you get a long break between boards.
wow, that blade was just barely able to cut the second side of that log. just left a tiny tip.
it's nice to see the mill running so well.
thanks Dave.
Your mill is a little unusual, in that logs are loaded and lumber boards unloaded, on the same end of the building.That cherry was beautiful!
Tell T.H.E. I like his work habits.Youngsters could learn a bunch from him on how to NOT waste time and energy. GO EDDIE 👍😊
Great job on the turner. I didn’t see any wasted motion on those two logs. It looks good and it works good so one 👍 for Mark and one 👍also for TEH. Industrial sized man glitter was in abundance today! 😎👍👏🇱🇷

May I ask why you don’t center the log on the log turner? You wouldn’t get that off center wonky lift on the front end
Is there a location on the bus motor for you to add a hydraulic pump to power the sawdust blower? Seems like it would be better to utilize the bus motor for power instead of buying gasoline plus now that the wall hides the sawdust blower you wouldn't really know when blower runs out of fuel.
Or can you add to the hydraulic pump that already exists to power the blower?

Yes, a little oak sawing did help this cold afternoon. 70°and sunny one minute and 38° and snowing the next, Baaaaahhhhh... I'm ready for warmer weather. And some social distancing Turkey Hunting.
thanks Dan , we may want to get a price from your guy on a 40' container.
mark galicic right now is a really good time to get a container Mark, the prices are way Down On em right now and here in NC I can get a 40’ HC and it is 9’6” tall for $2,900 delivered.
@@1982MCI not bad.
Just asking.... what are you trying to do with wood your cutting? Meaning... what’s the finished product other than just boards?
this wood will be used for anything from cabinets to trim work , flooring , furniture , ect.
Mark, when you get the dry kiln in operation do you have a building to put the dry lumber in? One that is temperature controlled to keep the humidity out.
we will use a second container to store lumber in.
4th MARCH, it' 10th April here in Australia?
we shot this video April 4th.
Mark, at 1 min you say March 4th
Hey guys, got an old time Oxford up and running. I'm looking at rebuilding the setworks , wondering if anyone has any drawings for pnumatic dogs
Just my opinion, but you should tip your camera down a hair more to catch more of the log entering the blade. A little less sky and more about sawing. Thx
Btw, log turner looks great!
thanks Tommy , hard to judge the camera angle but will try to set it lower.
Is a kiln available that is heated by burning scrap / waste wood ?
Thanks , :-)
Wyr
God bless
I never seen the place without plates and flags. So how long has the mill been at this location?????
I think about four years now.
Is there not a higher value for rift or quarter sawn stock there Mark? It seemed you purposely cut higher amounts of flat sawn out of these?
yes there is but its hard to do on a circular mill.
@@markgalicic7788 You flipped the can't @ 28:30, for example. Why not continue there without turning it? Sorry to bother you, love your work, thank you!
Mark I really enjoy the videos you put out and I had a question, Does T.E.H ever operate the mill or does he just off load ?
thanks Rich , no Eddie never ran the mill.
I just can't wait for the next video you make. I saw on another site that they had a saw very similar to yours, but it also contained a vertical cutter that allowed them to cut board vertically before they ran it through the horizontal saw blade. They ended up with a board without the bark. It was between the controller and the loading rack. Is this available for your saw?
Robert I worked on a mill that had a vertical edger all controlled by the sawyer,no lasers back then. Made the sawyer think but he got the hang of it pretty quick
thanks Robert , yes I could install a vertical edger on this mill .
I would love to hear from T.H.E. Eddie during the cutting process. Put a mic on him. You two obviously know what you two are thinking . I would love to hear him.
not sure how to do that Mike.
Afraid the busmotor noise would be way too loud. You wouldn’t hear anything but noise. Wouldn’t work.
@@markgalicic7788 NO not during the cutting process. Before the cutting starts. I see him throwing scrap wood in a pile, I under stand that. But I also see him stacking wood in a couple of other places . I was just interested in what he is doing and thinking.

What do y’all do with the ironing board pieces?
Nice cutting, when are we going to see that Hudson slab a log?
thanks , we do have some videos on the bandmill.
Oh I us going to ask we're is your mill at if you don't mind saying ?? It's a good running mill .
pittsburgh PA.
I know that your not supposed to clean a Detroit engine unless your looking for new oil leaks but as an old 'diesel dummy' I sure wish you would give that old Bus motor a bath. That Detroit green paint looks real good without all that black on it.
yes she needs a bath Don.
That second log was putting out some nice table top boards. Do you guys ever get beech logs in?
that was some nice wide oak Scott , we don't see much beech but if we do I will make a video .
How much can you saw in feet before you have to sharpen blade .
about 1500 feet.
What is the make of this machine, I am interested for my Husband, another words where can I Buy this kind of Machine?
this is a Edmiston sawmill.
You always rotate logs 3/4 of a spin counter-clockwise after completing a side ... wouldn't it be better to ever the motor and the chain, so you spin a log 1/4 spin clockwise?
very hard to down turn with a chain turner.
Hey Marc are those hoses hanging a little lower above the saw blade? I don’t remember them being so visible on camera!
I don't think so Michael but I will look at them .
Been watching your vids for while. Wondering how you governed your 671

I hope I never go through another week like last week as I cried hard for the friends I lost. Two were corona 19, and one traffic fatality. One was a guy who refused to be tested and had been putting off going to be tested. He waited too long and it was hard. The next tho is one that will need to be discussed. This friend worked at home depot, he stood six foot four and in good health, he was sixty three. He didn't feel well tuesday and they sent him home to be safe. He got home and felt better but next morning calls his son in law and says will you take me to the auto store as I need some parts for my truck. His son in law is also a friend an prince of a guy. He told him yes he would but why wasn't he working? He told them that he didn't feel well tuesday so they sent him home to get tested. So dad, did you get ahold of the doctor. Not yet but will get my truck fixed and go then. Dad, call the doctor now and I am going to call too. If your sick then your putting your daughter and our kids at risk... dad said your right, I will, i wasn't thinking straight and they hung up on each other. that was already in the evening hour so son calls him and said what is the doctor saying. Oh I will be okay till tomorrow and I can come in at the morning hour. Son talks to daughter and said dad ain't making sense like he normally is, he sounds confused, we better get ahold of the doctor and find out more right now, we can't risk the kids either. So doctor said that "Dave had called to make a appointment" and he told the doctor that he thought his dad was sounding confused. So the ambulance is dispatched an he met them at dads with his wife in their car. Dave doesn't answer the door so he unlocks it an he and ambulance crew go in. Here is Dave in bed, he had past away in his sleep and did look content...... From tuesday, then wednesday and thursday death is caused from corona 19. I know i messed part of this up as the way an how time did get by but dead in three days is solid.. That was quick for someone who was just never sick, they lived in the Edmonton area of canada. I would have to think he did contact it through a customer as they have snow yet and it really isn't a high tourist area. This family is torn up and the what if's and what not, a very close family who the son in law did do the right thing and get the doctors involved. I really LIked Dave and will miss him. He was a very kind man who generally showed using common sense more
Morgan Adair sorry for your loss. My brother told me a story the other day. Lady goes to Boston to visit ,goes out to eat, comes home ,doesn’t feel good,calls work and they say come on in,at work she tells her boss she is not feeling well, the boss says just stay, about a day or Two she gets tested and finds she is infected.
very sorry to hear that Morgan , we haven't lost anyone from this yet , take care.
She is a cook in a federal prison.
Wow..some $200 boards ..nice
yes some 12' x 12" clear boards.
Ummm I don’t see your laser. Did you stop
Using it?
yes it's there.
if in doubt eddie would line it up before you would notice.
Present buddy,join listenig🙏
or how did you get it .
Are you going to cover the end of the line where the boards come off the saw?
yes sir Steven.
We are surviving here in Canada so far!
So what are the plans for the band saw mill beside you?
glad you are ok , we are sawing live edge with the bandmill.
I live in California. We are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Our governor acted the fastest in the country so we are going to make it. How well did your governor do?
he did ok but lots of people did no want to his orders , you can't fix stupid people.
