Linda's Sawmill Cinema!
« on: July 28, 2015, 08:30:24 AM »
Hi there, all,

I spent some of a recent wet afternoon browsing Youtube videos and happened on 'LindasSawmillCinema'.  I found it interesting and impressive.

Start here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZV5-1UkBWX0 
Best regards,

Pete W.

Wow!

Think they used enough powder?

Kinda cool, but.....I might stick with wedges..



I love it when a Plan B comes together!

Thanks for showing that, Pete. :thumbup:  Funny thing is, I was just about to start sawing this morning -- cut down two black birches -- 75 foot ea. They don't need splitting, of course -- probably a foot dia at trunk, max.

Hi there, Steve,

Maybe I wasn't clear but there's more on that channel than just the log splitting!  The following videos showing their operations in their sawmill are amazing.  The coordination and choreography would challenge a ballet company!!  And they don't seem to ever stop!!!   
Best regards,

Watched them many times! My sort of people, hard working and efficient, I love sawing/milling timber. I made a chainsaw mill some years ago similar to the Alaskan and I'm still using timber cut with it. There is something about turning a useful bit of kit(tree) into smaller bits!!

I watched them at the time, too Pete. They do have a lot of nice equipment.
