Please make a note on your calendar for about a year from now, to look at the lumber in place, so we can see the extent of shrinkage and where it is. Your initial explanations are great; it'll be really instructive to see how your timbers develop and change over time.
great idea, will do, thanks for the suggestion,
If you take two stainless rules and stack them above each other and pin them both at the outer edges, you should be able to record the timber shrinkage and expansion cycles.
ha should have known you would have a clever method Joe, will do,
It’s been two years, is there a video? Would love to see!
Thanks for sharing with us Nathan. It's always inteeresting to learn more about milling boards. Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.
I love your show.. you sound like Dr Phil but you actually know how to do something ❤️
What a beautiful way to showcase finished products. Thamks
Its refreshing to see someone who understands about centering the pith, and why. Great explanation. Best way to make them.
When is your next video coming? I have not seen one of yours since Labor day. Ron
@@ronwood7040 working on editing now. Check my community page. Things are upside down at the mill, not to mention trying to replace a totalled vehicle.
I feel bad about missing so many weeks. Life got in the way. LOL
After seeing all the gorgeous hardwood slabs come off your mills it just make my skin crawl when you saw a pitchy ol' piece of pine
I find your videos so relaxing. BTW . Love your music selection
Thanks 👍👍
It's 2 am in the morning here in the UK and I can't sleep due to surgery I've had but I watch this video and forget about it for a few minutes, great work Nathan.
Thanks buddy 👍👍👍
The way you care about your work and the meticulous way you do it should yield you a very nice barn when you are finished building it and so far has been a good learning experience for all of us that watch your videos!
That post will look beautiful in your barn and that fact that you sawed them out will give you much more satisfaction. Thanks Kindly Nathan! DaveyJO in Pa.
agreed, only 5 more to go, not counting all the other parts,
Great info for those of us that do not have our own mill but are buying timbers.
I would say that I know much more now
I am enjoying this so much - learning a lot too. (I didn't know anything to begin, so everything you are showing is a learning experience!!)
Looking forward to this video👍
thanks Hank,
That just makes it that much more personal, knowing it came from your sawmill Nathan!... Thanks for sharing that man...😎
thanks buddy 👍👍
Thanks great video 👍,I don't have a saw Mill and probably never will , nothing wrong with learning about things you like stay safe and God bless you and your family 🙏
Looking forward to seeing this build, Nathan. Timber frame barns are in a class all to themselves.
Thanks for all of the great videos! I sure have learned a lot from them, take care and happy sawing!!
Thanks, you too!
Excellent video, Nathan! Really looking forward to this mill/build series! All the very best! #KeepTheChipsFlying!
thanks buddy,
Looking forward to watching and learning this entire process! Keep up the great work!
Thanks 👍👍
@@OutoftheWoods0623 You are truly welcome Brother!
Was the intro the old hit or miss engine sound ! You are taking good care of your mill, clean as a whistle !!
I'm fascinated watching this. We don't get many wood-framed buildings in this country these days but there are still lots of old barns, some going back hundreds of years. It will be very interesting to see what traditional techniques you adopt but using modern equipment; makes me want to have a time machine. I could be the Doctor Who of barns! I'd take the cat with me of course, as my assistant. 😉
The beauty in timber framing is you dont need a time machine. Many of the barns and buildings are still standing. You can look at them and see the techniques in the finished product. A lot of modern timber framers still use the old technology too. We might have a mortise machine and 14" circular saw but we have the chisels and hand saws on standby with the skills to use them too.
Watching and learning.
Love those levelers but I almost always forget to lower them after use and then saw an angle in the next cut! Can't wait for each video in this series. Enjoy your build.
Yes. Done that also 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Till I accidentally for this I never even knew these type machines existed. I have learned so much from these films. I warn you though if your next film shows that woodmiser 40 painting your house I'm going to quit watching!
lol, noted,
I would love to build a barn and cutting the lumber too WOW very cool . Looking forward to the build.
Looking forward to the build.
thanks Kevin, appreciate you watching,
That is going to be a nice break. I was involved in several post and beam buildings when I had my millwork company Nathan.
As you saw l can smell the wood somehow.....l wish l was able to come over to your place and help....OF course for free....l lived over in Maynardville Tenn for 35 years...Sold my new house..Came down to Middlesboro Ky to take care of my Mother she was 95 years old when she passed away that was in 2013...l am 76 years old now...Love your videos...Many thanks...!
I am not a sawyer and this is my first time to comment. I have many likes here; from your positive attitude on how to reinvest making a dream become reality to the technical side where education in both teaching and learning is fundamental. My question based on observation is: With the increased amount of water you are using when cutting Pine logs, does it help keep the pine tar buildup off your blades? And if so, it is just water or have you found a product that actually helps in this process of keeping your equipment in peak operation performance?
Thank you for posting your video I sure do miss those live chats I got a lot of good information from you too bad about the trolls
I’ll be back at them soon 👍👍
Very nice intro. Thanks
Thanks for watching
That's how it's done. Pay attention people.
Learned that from a guy named Tim 😁
If the log has a crook in it the pith will be to the side accordingly to the bend. But this is the best option if you use it green great explanation of it thanks for the video
Thanks for watching
@@OutoftheWoods0623 thanks for the reply you do a great job explaining I have done exactly what your doing I have a LT 40 the old model keep on keeping on 👍
If you don't already know of him you should get to know Mark Bowe of Barnwood Builders I believe located in White Sulphur Springs WV.
I know you don't like softwoods but this looks to be a very nice piece. Mostly Douglas Fir, Hemlock and Cedar out west here.
What would be everyone’s recommend sawmill? One that is cheap but good quality. Can’t afford a new wood mizer like his lol
What’s your budge?
I am curious if you have a market for the weirdly-shaped cuts that are generated by the first passes on logs. I suspect that there is plenty of good wood for smaller projects in those oddments. Jewelry boxes, cutting boards, cabinet handles and knobs, birdhouses, etc.
When you're done with the barn your going to be expert on sawing pine
Glad to see some pine logs being milled. Down here in SC we have more than you could ever need. Milling pine has built all my pole barn and lean too's. Great content!!
thanks Paul, appreciate you watching,
Well done. Keeping the pith in the center will keep it from twisting.
that is my hope, thanks for watching buddy,
It's not so much for the twisting as it is to keep checking from going all the way through the timber. Boxed heartwood gives the most stable timbers for this type of thing.
Sweet
Enjoyed this video, learning a lot from you. How much money have you saved cutting your own timber compared to buying from a finished product?
Great video as usual Nathan, I always look forward to watching them. I was wondering if you have made a video using the chainsaw mill method like the viewers project slab. I recall you mentioning about this method in a few videos but I’ve not seen you do it, if you have could you leave a link to the video, I would love to see how it’s done, keep up the good work.
not yet, I have a chainsaw mill but its still in the box,
I was a lil pithed I didn't watch this sooner.....😆
😂😂
Did you ever get the wood to Curtis Buchanan? I just got through watching some of his chair videos and was just wondering.
Love your vlogs, watching from the UK...one question.. do you have to manually adjust the blade guide to account for bulges in the logs or does the machine do it automatically
Just a question for my knowledge . Knowing where your kinda from and the availability of it and how you hate pine , why not use oak or another hardwood for your barn ? I’ve have seriously considered my next one to be out of cedar because of the bugs , especially wood bees . And I have cedars big enough around here . Great videos tho . Keep them coming .
Thanks for asking him this. That is another thing I like about his films, people ask him something and it makes me think. I feel like I'm getting a PHD just watching his films and listening to all yalls questions! Cant wait for him to answer you!
Pine has been used historically for timber frame post and beams due to its strength, low cost and most importantly its much lighter and easier to work with than hardwoods, However I will be adding some white oak and of course walnut to this barn. cant build anything without walnut,
I agree with easier to work with . Have a barn on my place that is old but in excellent shape , built out of oak . It is literally bolted together . You just can’t drive a nail in it . 😄
That intro video track got me pumped up!! Would love to know what that was of anyone knows?
MMM...love the music today.---And what a beautiful hunk of wood (you folks know your slabs, but I'm stuck being in love with knotty pine!)
Any recommendations for timber framing books ? I'm planning one myself for the air drying stage of my lumber and firewood.
So far I’d say it’s a very good looking post.
A single log would be nice to see start to finish in one video. Been lacking the completed project on a bunch of these videos.
Feel free to come help film and edit.
I’ll be there at 6am
6am? That’s when I eat lunch. We start early here.
That’s when I’ll be done with my first two jobs of the day... I’ll bring lunch!
agreed
When you first started filming did you ever imagine just how popular your films would become? I am sure you never expected that cat to become so popular! You film something and I think ok this is it, I have seen it all and then you do another one even better! You have certainly made a great life for yourself and family. I look forward to seeing this project going up. Be safe!
the cat was not expected lol, appreciate you watching Jim,
where did you get or learn how to cut your lumber
And also after seeing viewer projects , if you know anyone interested in a poplar built old loft barn that would want to tear down for the wood in it , and tin . Let me know . It’s going to get pushed into a pile and match put to it this winter if its still there . Thanks
Yes, very. Just depends on where in the US.
Anywhere even remotely close to NE Kentucky?
Western Kentucky . Crittenden county .
I have been a builder and Home Inspector. May I suggest you mill your posts and square the bottom end and then stand them up in some sort of pans and soak the bottom ends with copper naphthenate or BoraCare until they won't absorb more. A few days. I did it on many porch columns after realizing they rot from the bottom up. It really works and you will appreciate it twenty years from now. If you are not willing to do that, look into Impell or Borate rods. Or Drill holes into the posts at a downward angle and pour the preservative in and let it soak from the inside out near the bottom.
Just wondering why you don't use the saw blade gauge to determine the height of the pith on both ends?
What gauge is that?
@@OutoftheWoods0623 the one on the cantalever post or does the saw with the new setworks not have a log scale
Have you had a saw band break while sawing?
Yes 2 times
10:20 No spiders were hurt during the making of this video. Can not be to careful now.
thanks goodness,
Idk maybe it is just me but i think you made a mistake on the second cut. the log looks like it isn't flat on the mill on the back end. I have had this happen to me also when you go to snug the log up and it moves. just don't put to much pressure on it when you do. the log is pretty heavy at this stage so a light snug will still keep it in place. btw you can really see it at 9:48
Nope it’s you. Post is done and co planer on all sides.
Sometimes the cameras and shadows make it hard to see what is going on at the sawmill. I’ll go back and look. Thanks for watching 👍👍
You can tweak the center beam a little and balance the timber out wane wise by just centering and taking in account any bow the log may have. I noticed your second cut face was much wider than the first cut face, more wane on the first cut face which showed in the unbalanced timber. If you calculate the timber on the side of the log and not the center you timber will come out more balanced. Here I show how I balance from the side of the timber.
ua-cam.com/video/PytO0RtUc4w/v-deo.html
Looks like most of the wane is removed but I guess we'll see tomorrow.
Why didn't you show the finished post?
Tomorrow. Video ran to long. Try not to make them this long usually
Looks beefy!
And sticky 🤦♂️
Your music is way too loud. Love your channel. 👍
Sorry about that
THERE WAS A SPIDER! DID YOU KILL IT?????????
First commenter gets a free walnut slab?
we have a winner,
Thanks man, love the channel. Keep up the great work!
Was expecting a 30" log to lathe turned toothpick.
This is the obligatory UA-cam comment section peanut gallery, right?
correct,
So I guess that if you really blow this cut, you'd get really "pithed off".
It began in Afrika
What did?
Out of the Woods - The Chemical Brothers. I said this because of the intro music.
👍👍
Out of the Woods - it’s a nice touch. It kinda reminds me of the chemical brothers. Also I really liked this post sawing video. I learned from this video.
