It was good to see you again Nathan, we had a lot of fun at Jake's place, and thanks for mentioning our channel. For you folks that don't know it, among other things, Nathan is a master drone pilot, he flew in some very high winds and tight spaces around Customsawyer's place, and never had a problem.
A master drone pilot. I suspected as much, seeing all those (addictive) wide landscapes that Nathan shows at the end of his videos, with soaring views that are yet languid and dreamy, with perfectly matched background music. Psychedelic experience with no harmful side effects! Thank you!
@@harimuzumdar8269 Absolutely he's a master drone pilot, coming from a licensed private pilot myself, the almost near miss with the bird was so awesome.
Thanks for taking the time to come by. It was great seeing you my friend. You are correct with most of the equipment. The Slabmizer is actually set up to do 18 ft long. I haven't tried one that long but it is in the near future. Looking forward to the rest of your videos. Keep up the great work.
I had no idea you were connected to Nathan. I don't think it is a coincidence that entrepreneurs eventually cross paths and find each other. I enjoy both channels. I will definitely check out Robert's channel. I learn a ton from you guys.
Boy are you correct on that one!!!! You RARELY get a chance to see a 20 friggin inch jointer!!!!! Let alone one as nice as a SCMI, I've used quite a few of their machines and every single one of them is TIP TOP!! I got a chance to run a 4 sided moulding SCMI at a cabinet shop I worked at for quite a few years. Which is something you kinda need to use a machine like that, years and years of experience!!!!! They are EXTREMELY easy to set in the incorrect way and when you do that it can chew up a board in seconds or worse yet, it can destroy part of itself!!! That jointer requires just as many years, if not MORE!!!! ANY jointer is tricky to use, but one that size will end not only your woodworking career, but also your ANYTHING career!!!!! Great tour my friend!!! I'm looking forward to the next vid!
If you're going to run a big business that requires machines, you obviously need very high quality and dependable REALLY BIG MACHINES. What a great operation, thanks for showing it.
Good road trip and looking forward to the rest of the videos and interviews with those guys. That's a pretty big operation they have. Thanks for sharing with us. Fred.
Such a cool sawmill! I'm looking forward to seeing it in operation in your next videos. I'm sure you got lots of ideas for expanding your operation as well.
Wow, What an operation! But yours ain’t nothin to sneeze at Nathan! I’ve loved watching you build up your operation over these years. And I’m looking forward to the future at Nathan’s Wood Shop Station! Kind Thanks and Many Blessings! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
My friend I live in the NW in Washington state, and I have to say, those aren’t mountains, those are hills. But it is pretty around your ranch, and I really enjoy your videos !
Thank you Nathan for taking us along with you to the Mill of Jakes Double LT70's, quite impressive, I kept thinking during the video, how does he control surface rust, I noticed moisture and puddles so I am guessing it is quite damp under that open air roof. Also Nathan, very important that you know I among many others greatly appreciate your endless long hours editing videos. As a long term Patreon Member I am proud of you and what you have done with your channel, Truly am proud to follow this amazing journey.
Kool! I remember your trip there last time, because of the impressive sawdust collection unit! That fella sure has had some practice with that fork lift!---Loved the road trip!
Sure like the look of those rolling hills out your way. Jake is a busy man with that fulltime lumber mill set up he has. His years of experience is something that would be a great resource of knowledge for people to learn from. Wish he had more time for videos. Looking forward to your up coming video or videos of what he has going on this weekend!
I sure do envy your traveling to places like this, I come from a logging/sawmill family and owned a few mills in my times... never a band saw mill as this is many years ago
Really nice setup that fella has. Your going to cause an argument with the wife if you keep showing all that neat equipment. I’m going to want to buy stuff for my shop.
Nathan, we crossed paths somewhere on the big road. Went over to Newland NC to deliver a friend a smaller used sawmill so he could start cutting his timberframe. Tell me what the poplar in that area are...they're definitely not tulip poplar trees as we have here though I did see a few. Nice and straight at the 3500' elevation!!! I liked your friends setup!!! Nice A.D. drying building!!! OH, the telehandlers are grand in that scheme of using. I just purchased a Bobcat v518 to use at my mill!!! Have a great week!!!
I really enjoyed this video and can't wait to see some more about that sawmill. Perty shore that overlook you stopped at is the Metcalf overlook. My wife is a Metcalf. That road went through her kinfolks land that's where the overlook got it's name. Thanks
Ded blasted! Did I miss that again shoot. I will have to make it next year! Me and Ann Margaret went up and had a great visit with Stuart and his wife and on the way there got to see the redwoods and Mr. Charles Bellows. I got a put it on my calendar for next year
As a northerner it always blows my mind when I see all the open sided shops down south with all that expensive equipment in it. How do they prevent rust from ruining everything?
I'm in NZ and the prospect of cross winds through that shed was the first thing I thought of. The area I'm in is really high humidity a lot of the year, so that would be problem one, then, all across the country we run into horizontal rain with snow in the deeper latitudes. Are there at least temp wrap sidings around the sheds?
@@davebryant8050 From my point of view, it is more about how they protect the steel and iron surfaces without creating issues with other processes or staining of some products.
I'm surprised you don't have a smaller commuter car. Must be a few hundred to fill up for the round trip. But that large cypress beam makes me wonder if he can mill the timber for the roof of Notre-Dame de Paris
Hi there : I’m in Cosby , have some logs that I need to do something with . I no longer have a mill and we are renovating a cabin and have some needs . Maybe we can work something out ? I’ve sent a couple comments to get in touch with you . Reach out if you can .
The largest milled timbers that I have seen were 24 inches by 12 inches by 24 foot long that was 85 years ago, I have often wondered how the were milled .
Biggest ridge beam I've milled is a 16"x28"x 29' long. All done on a 1987 woodmizer LT40 by setting up a crib on one end for multiple relocating since it only has a 21' "capacity"...
Nice setup but maybe a rude question but how come about 80% of those boards out of the kiln are cupped and warped? Wouldn't you want equal stacking and pressure on all ends to prevent that from happening?
Does he have something like storm sidings for those sheds? I could not imagine leaving gear like that permanently exposed here in NZ without massive maintenance costs.

Glad he mentioned you in this video, now Hobby Hardwood of Alabama Rober Milton just got a new subscriber as well as Mr. Jake
Man oh man!! I'm glad you didn't forget and leave us at that rest stop there on the top of the mountain! It was gettin chilly up there! LOL

I really enjoy these sawmill tour videos.
Especially at these fuel prices. It’s cheap visiting foreign me. 😂
My wish list just grew
Good morning to all from SE Louisiana 14 Apr 22.
I'm so glad you didn't leaves all there in the cold. LOL

@@OutoftheWoods0623 I've been hooked since the very 1st vid I SAW almost 3 years ago!!!!
I’m most jealous of the telehandler ! That thing is sweet!!!

I've been to that overlook, great spot.
Thanks for watching

That’s some nice country.
Nathan, thanks so much for these fact finding field trips. It's always good to see how the other guys do it.
Thanks for watching
I hope you didn't leave any water stains on the equipment from the drool as you were filming!
Boy that's a pretty impressive operation he has going on there
agreed
Good road trip and looking forward to the rest of the videos and interviews with those guys. That's a pretty big operation they have. Thanks for sharing with us. Fred.
Such a cool sawmill! I'm looking forward to seeing it in operation in your next videos. I'm sure you got lots of ideas for expanding your operation as well.
I like the non-pneumatic wheels he has on the JLG.

Here in Washington State, we would call those hills, not mountains. They are lovely hills, though. 💚
I agree. I live here too.
Interesting tyres on that telehandler style machine.
yes sir, I think they are air less solid tires
Wow what a setup.
Absolutely beautiful!! Such a clean operation also!
He has been in the business for many years, well established. Good tour.
Thanks for watching
safe travels sir! May God watch
over you.
Thanks
Amazing facility

hi there nice show looking forward to more . john
That is a really nice saw mill. I enjoyed the tour of the mill. Looking forward to the next videos. Thank Nathan 👍👍👍❤️
Nice Change of pace. Great vid. Thank you!
I sure do envy your traveling to places like this, I come from a logging/sawmill family and owned a few mills in my times... never a band saw mill as this is many years ago
That's awesome Nathan, and looking forward to seeing his sawmill in operation
Metal shop was 90' wide by 106' long. I was there with Nathan.
Hey buddy
That’s a nice setup. Can’t imagine how much those machines cost!
You are one hell of a guy. Keep up your great work Nathan.
He has a hell of an operation, I was admiring :)
Really nice setup that fella has. Your going to cause an argument with the wife if you keep showing all that neat equipment. I’m going to want to buy stuff for my shop.
Very cool! Enjoy seeing other operations! That's a BIG operation!
Great video, very excited to see your next ones, cheers Nathan
Thanks 👍
Good stuff. Lots of amazing machinery
wow! Cant wait to see more!
I sure enjoy watching your videos,very entertaining and informative. Thanks so much.
Looking forward to the next vids!
Heck of a set up. Looks like he's on top of it. 👍
Nice place, very tidy with that huge concrete floored open shed.

Always the best music!
Thanks for your efforts 👍🏼
Thank you too!
That precision with the fork lift... he could probably do one of those ballet dances with excavators and other big machines. .
Agreed

yes sir, you too, cya soon
Impressive machine arsenal!
That long lift looks like it comes in handy.
Impressive setup. Killer fork lift!
Really interesting facility. Thanks for sharing. Be well and stay safe.
You are in my part of the us. There is a ( Big lumber Co. ) just north of Appling Ga. Pollard lumber Co.
Nice 👍
Awesome video
Thanks for watching
Cool!!!
Looking forward to those videos. What an interesting sawmill. Thanks for taking us along.

I’m ready
Wow neat set up very informative video thanks for sharing with us
Jakes got it goin on. He’s definitely a helova sawyer! AC
Cool airless tires on the forklift... :-)
Indeed

Nathan, it's nice to see you back to your normal self after the last time I messaged you.
Dang, what a nice setup.
So nice I had to come back and watch it again :-) hard to stay away from Saw Mill porn😂😂
I enjoy watching your videos keep up the good work
Are those airless tires on the forklift?
Thank you brother what an awesome video
Glad you enjoyed it
I enjoy all you videos. This one was especially interesting. Missed the cats though.
Thanks for watching
Interesting stuff Nathan 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching
Really impressive setup.
Agreed
Nice
What are your top 3 favorite blades in order? And why? The short version, please.
Really interesting, my friend !!
Thank you! Cheers!
Good stuff.
Cool tools 🔧 😎 👍😊🌎🌞👍
Thanks 👍
MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼
I’m waiting on you to get that type of dust extractor! 😂
Want that set up
I'm surprised you don't have a smaller commuter car. Must be a few hundred to fill up for the round trip. But that large cypress beam makes me wonder if he can mill the timber for the roof of Notre-Dame de Paris
I'm guessing those straps were tight when the stacks went into the kiln, and the wood shrunk that much?

Eldred T. Glass - How old were you in 1937?
Nice hotel room :)
Thanks 😂😂😂
I hope you were not as disappointed as I was.
Nice setup but maybe a rude question but how come about 80% of those boards out of the kiln are cupped and warped? Wouldn't you want equal stacking and pressure on all ends to prevent that from happening?
Gotta love cupped and twisted boards.....
Does he have something like storm sidings for those sheds? I could not imagine leaving gear like that permanently exposed here in NZ without massive maintenance costs.
If these open buildings are in the woods, the trees act like baffles & are more protected than an open field... Not always, but for the most part..
I’ve been buying wood from Robert a long time. I was wondering why he was closed Friday.
Was the opening up at Sam's Gap?
yes
