Why I swapped blades on my sawmill woodland mills hm126

what's going on guys outdoors guy here today i wanted to tell you guys about saw blades saw blades can be your best friend or your worst enemy whenever it comes to a woodland mills hm126 i've had mine for three years first of all i'll just go ahead and get this out of the way the blades that they send you guys does not work very good at least at least for me i used them for a year i used the inch and a quarter which is what this is this is an inch and a quarter i believe it's like a o45 thickness and then 144 inches long guys i use this blade for a year not this exact blade i switched my blades but i used this size of blade for a year now look i cut hard wood i cut beach i cut oak i cut all different kinds of things i've even cut hickory i cut maple you know i cut railroad ties for the railroad is what i do so for me using these type of blades on hardwood let me tell you it is very tough not only will you get waves in your wood whenever you cut it's a slow cut and also it's just complicating i mean it's just complicating you're sitting and you gotta you gotta keep the water fed to it really good always keep an eye on it you know it's just it's just tough so what i wanted to tell you guys today is if you've got an atm 126 an hm 130 or whatever you got of woodland mills it don't matter if it's a hudson whatever brand if you're running these blades and you're not getting the results that you wanted i wanted to suggest this blade to you this is an inch and a half this is an inch and a half blade i believe it's an old 55 thickness and uh it's 144 inches long now you know the length varies on whatever type of sawmill that you got like the hm130 i don't know the exact size that it uses but i know that it's longer than 144 inches i have an hm126 the only thing that i had to do was widen the guide blocks on my sawmill now guys i'm telling you if you've ever run these blades i know that you've cut waves in your wood it doesn't matter how perfect level that you get it it doesn't matter of how many instructional videos that you've watched and all that stuff you're still going to get waves in your wood the reason why is this blade is thin so when it's thin and it gets heated up it doesn't matter if you're pouring the water to it or not it'll still get heated up and when it gets hot and stuff it flexes when it flexes it'll follow that wood grain and you're going to get waves in your wood so i wanted to tell you guys this blade right here now you can see them compared this is a lot thicker and a lot wider it you know it's a quarter inch wider is what it is it's an inch and a half wide and i know what you're thinking you're thinking hey that that's too wide and that won't work well i've got an hm 126 and it works fine on mine now guys you know just a little disclaimer uh you know this may wear out burns faster it may do it i don't know but i can't tell a difference like i said i cut almost every day not in the wintertime but in the spring and summer i cut almost every day and when i do these are the blades i run those small blades there i'll get three logs out of it total max i don't care you're getting three logs if you're cutting anything more than that then you're pushing it as hard as you can and and you're burning through that log you're not cutting through that log okay and i've used linux i've used simmons i've used wood mizer any of them i get these blades right here guys i can cut seven logs with these seven logs now you know that might vary depending on the size of log but just in general seven logs is what i'll get with these now with those thinner ones if i'm cutting soft wood like poplar like pine spruce if i'm cutting uh even cedar then i'll get more than three logs you know out of it but with these logs right here you don't get near the waves you don't get that dip when you first go into the log they cut so much better the lumber quality is so much better with these i just wanted to kind of tell you guys about that now look i know what you're thinking uh these blades are a lot more expensive well i'm going to tell you something if you're ordering off the woodland mills website in the beginning and you're giving 25 uh for a blade and you're paying shipping you're paying too much anyways those blades right there are those small blades i'm giving 14 to 15 each depending on the brand and that's delivered to my door now guys look i'm gonna i'm gonna go on here in the description and i'm going to put a uh some contact info for the company that i order off of if you guys are interested in that you might be you might not be but these blades right here are 18 apiece and they're well worth the money they resharpen better you're going to get more resharpens out of them if you're uh sorry about that wind's getting to me if uh your water tank clogs up these can actually stand a little heat you know it's not going to stand a ton but it stands way more than those you know if those get hot you can't hardly resharpen them guys i just wanted to kind of tell you guys about that and also i wanted to thank my patreons hey the last month patreon has uh doubled in membership i want to thank you
