This Beam Tried to Kill My Sawmill

Attempting to mill a giant beam and everything goes wrong...

😂it'll only happen once... the true safety guy's motto. Love that beautiful maple beam, a lot of folks have no idea how hard maple is and how much havoc it will wreak on a saw.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. That saw blade is terrifying.

So happy you started posting videos again.

Great video Andy, it seems the amount of maintenance never ends 👍✌️🇺🇲

Reminds me of the old Hee Haw song! "Gloom despair agony on end, if it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all!" Great video!

Sometimes it seems like the simplest things turn out to be the most complicated things. The most important thing is to keep at it and get the job done. Great job! God Bless!

I worked in a pallet factory, pile of sawdust in a corner no one saw smoldered for 3 days before someone smelled it-- a 1/4" farther and it would have gotten into the framing of the building...that was made of yellow pine sawed in the 1950s... Glad someone can smell better than I do!

I love how the more tired and frustrated you get, the more your southern accent comes out 😂

Love your content and the journey. Been around on FB since before your outhouse video (around the catfish in the outdoor kitchen). Started my family's Homestead journey in Appalachia this past spring. Keep lettin 'er wobble.

"It'll only happen once" LOL 😂

Using a battery powered grinding wheel to cut the other grinding wheel back to the nut was freaking genius! 😎

[Wil_Liam]

If you'll move the engine up until the driveshaft is straight and level, it'll help lessen the vibrations from the 2 less than equal angles joints .. I'd inspect that shaft for some wobble too..

You've been popping up on my FB with a lot of videos. This is the first ive seen you on youtube. Youre funny, keep posting on the ole tube!

[donaldhofman]

That reminds me of my days sawing at the mill in Northern Minnesota!

Every moment of you is Shear joy, being human is peaceful.

A little bad luck=greatness in the future

At least Jack's ears won't get cold in them Michigan winters.

7:12 yeah with as close to level as you have them and the fact its not on a truck… i dont think the double cardon was helping. If anything i think it was hurting.

I might be interested in building your slip clutch drive shaft.

I builddrive shafts out of my garage most of the time they're just for pickup trucks, but I can see what I can do for a sawmill
