  • Milling an incense cedar log that is too large for a Woodmizer LT15 Start on a Woodmizer LT15 Start Sawmill. Dealing with all the things and problems that come along with doing such a thing. Opening it up to see what it looks inside to decide if I want to mill it into slabs or just regular lumber.

    A couple nice table tops and some premier slabs to book match for chests, boxes or other.

    Well, just 'wasted' 15 mins enjoying another one of your excellent vids when I should be outside running in a rebuilt saw billeting next year's firewood in the logging brake... Gorgeous looking sawn timber. I'd love to be lumbered with that log and an LT15 here in the UK.....

    Great content! I think if I ever get a Woodmizer it will be the LT 15 Wide Model. Then I don't have to mess around with the stick, just load and cut.

    "Let's see what kind of trouble we can get into..." Prophetic ?
    (Reminds me of the most terrifying phrase I've ever heard: "Hey Sarge, what's this button do?" Closely followed by: "Hey guys, watch this!")
    Cheers from a slowly drying Linn County.

    "If I played the lottery, I'd go buy a ticket today..." It never works that way for me.
    The timing of the fuel/log-end/top-off-tank ratio would have used up all the luck for that day; best I could hope after that much was a good nap. But, that's just me.
    Cheers from a raining and once again, soggy Linn County

      Yes it is familiar. I think I remember seeing a couple guys somewhere named Paul and Andy doing something similar.

    I’ve only milled a few species. My mentor loved big sugar pine but for me it was always cedar. Beautiful log! 👍🏼

    As you stacked all those little pieces of wood together you probably noticed it to be a lot of handeling. You will also have to handle it again to get it into the house. What I do now is when I cut the wood stack it on end in a large plastic planter tub. When that gets filled I tie a piece of cheap clothes line around it to make a tight bundle and stack that. Make it all into bundles and when winter rolls in it’s easier to fetch one or two bundles than to fiddle with all those loose pieces. It works for me.

    Nice jab at the swing blade sawmill owners. 🤣They are certainly great for making dimensional lumber from big logs. What was the cost difference between the LT15wide and regular mills when you got yours?

    • @WilsonForestLands
      @WilsonForestLands  Рік тому +1

      Nothing against the swing blade mills owners. It was in response to one commenter on a past video. My way of perpetuating the childishness. 😁
      Mine is the LT15 Start. The lowest end model I think. It was on sale for $4500 or something like that. I think some of the higher end ones were 10k or more.

      Thanks Dave. Yes that was the butt log of the big Cedar I pulled out of the canyon. I would say I lost the video of where I mentioned that but it’s more likely that I forgot to mention it.
