[Music] hmm so [Music] [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] do [Music] do [Music] [Music] so it's not bad think do [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] all right friends welcome back to the sawmill i know it's been a while had to take a few weeks off here get some things done as you can see behind me all the slabs are out of here i went ahead and did a big clean out while the sawmill was getting serviced down north carolina and moved out all the slabs i got one more stack right here at the back and a small stack over here but other than that all the wood is out of here thank goodness i won't be bringing it back in here that was a terrible decision because i had to manhandle every one of these slabs to get them out of here because the roof is too small or too low rather for the tractor to pull in here that was a rough job right there took about three days by myself getting these things out of here i'm glad it's out of here and my goodness i have so much room now and now i can also go forward with setting up a dust collector for the sawmill hopefully in the next two weeks i used to wood nizer would do a service route they would send a service truck out to my state which is tennessee every other year and they would come on around in four feet they would service your sawmill check all your blade guide rollers the alignment which is very important and just look over it real good for you and spend a few hours with you kind of going over some things that you need to be looking for because those guys do on an everyday basis and even though i've read my instruction manual about a thousand times over the past 10 years i always learned something new but due to cove within the craziness of this last year and staffing shortages wood nizer hasn't been able to do that i don't think they're going to do it maybe until next year so that's why me and dad took the sawmill last week down the wood miles of north carolina and had some things done to it all right friends look over the background noise it's starting to rain here just a little we got new blade guide rollers put on this is the idle side this one right here the bearing was going out so that's why we had this one replaced and i went ahead since i had it down there at their shop and had them put two brand new ones on it even though that one right there was okay i kept the other one for parts for later on then the other thing we had him do was put a new high performance blade guide on here that's his whole assembly right here it hooks right here at the top comes on down on both sides of the blade there's two little pads in there above and below the blade to keep it straight when you're solid if you hit a knot or starts getting dull these right here help you out a lot and what happened was you have to loosen these on the front to make your adjustments and when i went to tighten them up guess what i did i broke them off all right guys let's try out the sawmill we got a fresh alignment on there new blade guide rollers wood meizer went over everything i think they even tightened up this feed roller chain on the side just a little bit as well so it should be in really good shape today we got a uh i can't remember that's the blade they put on it when they do their test cuts i think that is a four degree 55 blade on there i'm not sure i'll check it out below profile gauge here in just a second we're going to work on this pine real fast just to do a test to see how it runs and make sure everything's good to go because i did haul this thing three hours on the road and sometimes things do work loose on a highway 70 miles an hour going down the road so we should be in good shape though the famous last words we'll check it out though we're doing one by fours on this pine and then we'll move on to this nice big poplar it should be a good log so stick here with me guys see how it does [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] so [Music] [Applause] [Music] foreign
