Wade, I’m 67 and I have the utmost respect for you. You are a humble man who has done well in building a business. You respect and treat your employees well. Most important, you are a man who loves and cares for his family. That’s the most important job you have. God bless you and your family and business
Thanks so much bud
You put yourself down far too much Wade!! You're one of the smartest people I follow here on UA-cam!! As always thank you for bringing us along on your adventures!
He's the smartest because he's humble enough to learn at every opportunity.
I appreciate that!
I've been a follower of Wade from his first days on Facebook and you tube met him in person and I can attest that what you see is what you get in person he's a great person that learned his trade from the ground up so to speak he is very smart and helluva funny guy
Wade you got to give yourself more credit buddy. That looks like a very intense job sharpening those bands . Looks like your taking it in stride. My wife always tells me around the farm , " you can't expect yourself to do master everything at once ". Have a good one.
Hello Wade, my dad was one of the ole time band saw filers that retired back in the late 80's. As a young man, i spent a lot of time with him in the filing room and i can say that you do indeed have a good grip and understanding of whats going on with your saws, a whole lot more than i ever understood being my focus was on gang saws and chipper knives. Don't be so hard on yourself buddy, the world could use more men like you. Thanks for sharing. By the way, this is the first time that I have ever seen a leveling machine, the old timers hammered the saws on the bench.
Wade that looks like a place where a man could get hurt real quick if he didn't know how to handle that stuff. I love the way you take care of your employees. Good job.
I live in New Zealand, and in a younger life was doing exactly what this video covers.
This was back in the late 90s, early 20s.
We had a brand new sawmill, using all the saws - etc from a closed sawmill in Tasmania.
We had a Huge Main saw, 10 ft wheels with 46.5 foot long 14" wide 14 gauge saw with 2" varied pitch teeth
First resaw was a twin band saw unit, with 2 x 15 gauge 12" wide saws - can't remember their length
These bandsaws were all on 15 degree lean so there was no need for a "turner-down"
I was the saw filer there, on site when setting up the mill, and the saw shop.
All the bands were swaged and shaped, and the main saw was sharpened on Armstrong No-6 grinder.
The resaws on Armstrong No -4.
I loved the work, but at my age, would not be able to keep up.
Cheers - -Rick from New Zealand
Man you wasn't messing around
You have so many hats, I'm so surprised that you keep things straight. I give you kudos for all that you do. Always loved your channel. Keep safe, and the faith 🙏 😊
Man.....that is so impressive. As well potentially very dangerous. The skills needed to man handle those bands into position is crazy . Enjoyed this Wade...Thanks ❤
I would love to see more sawmill content. Those vidio bring many memorys and emotions back to me. Glad to watch your whirl wind life.Love to see the whole hartedness you put into evry thing you do in all aspects of your life. RESPECT
What an incredible amount of work to maintain these massive band saws. Fascinating. I had no idea of the complexities of a sawmill. Nice job, Logger Wade!
Thanks
Bandsaw filers are a dying breed. It’s a great trade! Should be pushed in schools more!
You’re getting the JOB DONE Sr.Wade that’s what matters BOY keep doing what your doing! Thanks for showing us how much you love your profession you do it justice.
Thanks man
Having had you explain these processes to me when you showed us the room, to now watch it all happening is just incredible Tater.
You have a skill set that many could only dream of driver 😉👌🏼
Wade spill the beans, we like seeing the inside workings in the mill, and all the behind the scenes action.
From 82 to 87 that's what I did for the pallet mill it had a 48 inch re-saw with a twin 24. chipper knives, de-barker knives, carbide gang saws and kant sizer heads. I knew what you were doing. Spent a lot of time on an Armstrong bench and grinder. This was a great video!!!
Great video Wade, being how I know nothing about the logging industry, I feel like I learn something every time I watch your video.
Loved seeing the filing room again! My dad filed saws for big lumber mills on the west coast during the 40's, 50s, 60's and 70's! The process now is very similar to what him and his dad did. A little automation but still a bunch of plain man power. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
Until I started watching I really didn't know how hard all your jobs are. Please keep doing and will be watching.
Wade it’s easy to smile with your videos. Keep them coming it’s extremely interesting to get inside look of the operation.
You do a great job Wade
Glad I watched ax men years ago and found this top notch entertainer
You are a talented guy Logger Wade!
Thanks bud
Loved it Wade! Really interesting. Thanks for posting. 🇬🇧👍👍
I used to take care of 3 band saws ! A 12” double cut , and an 8” resaw and a 6” resaw ! Only automatic part was the grinding. Was a lot of fun ! It was the early 80s !
Copy that
You make handling those big saw bands look like child’s play.
I've worked with hundreds of skilled labor people. I make a pretty decent living at fixing things. You're no dummy Wade. You can tell that bullshit to someone else 😂 This was one of the coolest videos you've put out. Appreciate it brother.
Why heck yeah thanks man
“Can we say shit show on UA-cam?”
😂😂😂
She’s a hoot!
Wow,,,, hands on for every job. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You do a good job . Team work makes the dream work .
Looks like your doing a great job Wade, give yourself more credit buddy. That looks like a high intensive job to sharpen those bands. I can see why they have to be perfect because it effects the efficiency of the mill. Have a good one.
Very interesting Wade. You really know your stuff. Loved watching it.
That was really neat seeing how to take care of the blades. Keep up the great work
Thank you Wade I learned something new, milling timber is so much more complicated than I realised.
Wade , awesome job, I like to know how and why things work. Thanks for what you do
There is so much more too sharping a band than I thought! You are great and are so talented
GREAT!!! Very informative and fun to watch. God Bless and Stay Safe.
great video Wade, i never realized there was so much work involved in sharpening saw blades.👏👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Always interesting and entertaining to hear what’s going on in your life. Really interesting to see how the bandsaw maintenance is performed. Wishing you and your family the best.
Thanks bud
Great video thanks for sharing
Hi Wade, love the variety of videos,
Wade what you do for the whole company is absolutely amazing. The amount of knowledge you is amazing sir.
I appreciate that!
For not having alot of experience, Wade seams to know what he's doing 🎉🎉 Good job
Haha got you fooled... thanks man
smithed circle saw for years, enjoyed it a lot
Good job man we're trying
Seeing what it takes to sharpen, I'm glad we never used bands at our Mill. Our Sawyer always took care of his own blades xo my maintenance dept. never had to mess with sharpening. Nice job Tater.
Very interesting video...I never realized how much work has to be done to run a sawmill. I hope you do more videos like this
Cool video vefy educational.
Trees Grows Jobs .
I love that wood floor. I wish i could work on a wood floor .
The concert in my warehouse is kicking my ass .
Very interesting!
Thank you for another great video. Stay safe out there. Cheers
Wade, you are one of the most honest, humble and genuine people I have ever seen.
Love this channel and your content.
And big thanks to Lord Muck for the recommendation to check your channel out 👍
Thanks bud
Great video once again by you
I found this very interesting, there is a lot of work that goes into the sharpening process, I learned a lot from this video sir, to me, you’re basically doing a machine shop work through a grinding process. Thanks for the video young man, stay the course, you’re going to win.
Yes something of that nature
Wade.... You are like me. High strung and trying to get stuff done. Best advice I ever got from one of my Chiefs (Military life). Slow is Pro. take the time to make it right the first time. Cause in the end it will save time.
Very very true
Great video Wade. Cool to see how that is done. It's fun and rewarding I find anytime your dealing with thousandths and tenths and dialing something in with a tight tolerance. I got Learnt today!😂 later good buddy!
Great video Wade
Great content. Love to see the behind the scenes work. I hope you have some type of statistical process control.
Working on it!
Hi mom ! ❤ damn wade dems some big ass blades lol. You sure do stay busy brother. Keep err going buddy looking good! The new Jersey logman 👍🌲
Dun learned today. Good stuff there Wade.
Thanks Wade, when I change the blade on my bandsaw without getting slapped by the blade, I feel good. So what I'm trying to say is, if the work you're doing is good, then it's good enough.
Haha thanks bud
Wild operation.
Mama don't look a day over 65, she's got nothing to worry about
Sweet job on them thier bands wade! Not an easy job!
I never really put much thought into how much work there is in maintaining a saw blade. You seem to have a handle on it!
Great video and keep up the amazing work. Looks like you are doing good. Just wanted to make a suggestion for you is on the leveler where you sit down and push the wheel out. Could you put a air cylinder in there and make it a little bit easier to make a adjustments.
Man I'd wish I have a boss like you at the mill I worked. I enjoyed watching your vids, Hopefully we can see some more of the mill soon 😊
Great video wade like to see how it actually works
Very educational I never knew how that was done 👍
Your Mam is great, 10 years older than me with more energy. Super personality.
Big Momma is looking well. Sounds like we are the same age but she looks a lot more spry . Maybe I need to do that reverse age thing.
When I was young the old neighbor guy had a sharping shop in his back yard. He let me come over and watch. He taught me a lot but it helps me understand and appreciate what you are doing on a much larger scale.
Copy that thanks man
Pretty interesting video , i had no idea all that was involved in a bandsaw .
Wade you are the master of your craft . GOD be with you and everyone around you. (In my younger days i was a millwright)
Copy that.. in that case you've mastered a few as well bud
@@LoggerWade Yeah, master Welder, mechanic( As a mechanic, I can work on from a little Nitro engine. All the way up to helicopters and airplanes.) carpenter, electrician, just a few.
Cool vidja! Thanks
Interesting video!
Can't beat a Hanchett swage and the Armstrong shaper combo. Only thing I would say is I would give that shaper a little more "throw". As far as tension goes sometimes you have roll in the same spot just a little harder the second time around. Just don't make it a habit. Lol.
Man it’s hard managing. I started a managing role about 9 months ago and it’s been one heck of an adjustment. I’m struggling with it, my mind wants to just focus on grading and forget the rest but I’ve got to keep my eyes on everyone. Sawyers. Edger. Trim saw. Stackers. It’s something.
Yup I know what ya mean
It’s wayyy better to take extra time and ask why or how something works than just to go along with it, ret video as always wade
That looks interesting but I would think it’s dangerous a guy could get cut Always great to see mill videos thanks for sharing 👍👋🇨🇦
I learned to sharpen bands in the 80s with equipment from the early 30s. I was 18 years old
Do you reduce the Hook Angle for Hard Maple and White Oak or just run one profile for everything ?
Same profile for everything it's such a chore to grind in something different
But you are probly exactly right if a guy kept a couple different saws for hard and soft.. My off the cuff thoughts though is we'd screw it up
Your a person of many things I know what that's like wade life's hard now days you gotta be able to do anything put in front of you I growed up learning to work on cars I learned to shoe horses learned to weld I cut timber I been trimming trees and cutting trees around power lines for 10 yrs now also run equipment around power lines just alot of different things every day
Amen, a guy like you has the right stuff
@@LoggerWade never could do carpenter work though my dad could build a house roof a house frame up walls that's the one thing never was any good at carpenter work I hate it
hi there this was a great video , think i will stay with my go round mill . best to all john
Thanks bud
Your channel is great. Love the family business.
Would a skidsteer load and sort those ties better? I run a skidsteer with forks on it all day loading bales of cardboard. Its surprising how quick a skidsteer can move/load and sort compared to a backhoe.
Not shore, that's a good question
👍✌️
Great video and amazing work. Just wanted to make a suggestion for you. On the leveler could put a air cylinder in where you sat down and push the wheel out. Just saying. Keep up the amazing work 👍
Thanks bud
Tater you know as well as anyone else buddy that the only way you get better at something is to just do it! Yeah sometimes it’s gonna cost you but that’s how we learn to do it right and get great at something! Plus your to hard on your self bud!! Great vidja as all ways!!
I wish you would make a video explaining the filing.
I miss my filing job lot to learn but once you do it's like riding a bike
Logger Wade how many times can you sharpen the saw blade until you throw it away or do something with it.😊
It depends usually in our current environment we destroy the body before its to skinny
I've heard in the past 11" down to as low as 9
Someday's chickens someday's feathers
Very interesting :)
Great video really enjoyed! Hard to believe big mama is 72
Boy you really get with it when mom is standing over ya, Shes got to watch ya like a hawk. 🤣 Be safe, Handling blades looks tricky
If I had half the brains you got I'd get a job and get off this social security retirement. $1200 a month is almost not living, 75 aint to old to move along. Keep on keep'n on you are needed more than ya know.
Why is the most important question. "Pump the old guys", for info.
Definitely a lot of work on them blades
great video' nobody ever gets to see the behind the scenes work that has to be done to keep the work going. seems you are able to fill in anywhere work is needed to be done. tough being the man in charge huh, but they got the right man in charge.
I'm trying is all I can say..
Wade when I was little like 4 or 5 I would always ask my parents why? And how come? I wanted to know more about life and understand it. I drove my family crazy with why and how come. True story. Peace
Haha well I guess I never outgrew it... great story bud thanks and I'll keep at the why
Wade we are missing you again lol
Hi if you are asking why and getting answers you are learning, if you are not asking you are copying, not learning. All the best👍🐝🌞
tHIS IS SO TRUE
I have missed your mother. She reminded me of my mother. My mother logged as a teenager with her father and brothers. Great woman but don't get on her bad side. Lol 😆 🤣 😂 😆
That's exactly right
I'd love to see a video on how welding teeth on a saw works
Nice saw shop! What brand saw are you running?
