In this video Greg builds a slab rack for all of the slabs that happen when milling lumber. In the past, the slabs just get thrown in a pile and that pile just keeps growing. Ideally, we want to use these slabs for firewood. It's pretty easy to want to just gather that pile and burn it when it just keeps growing and is an eyesore. This slab rack or slab cradle will let us collect the slabs and then easily cut firewood. It just feels a little more organized and a lot cleaner. Or, at least, that is the hope!
We have A LOT of milling coming up and the more organized the sawmill area is, the better. Having this slab rack / slab cradle will definitely help.
We are definitely ready to start milling ALL of the lumber for the barn, but there a few more steps to complete the sawmill cover first. It will be so nice to have a cover completed and ready for our Woodland Mills HM130 Max sawmill. We are ready for Fall and all of the weather that comes along with it! Excited to have a covered sawmill!
Did you know we are also building a barn?! If you haven't followed along with our BARN Build, make sure to check out that series in our playlists. We recently finished the foundation. Our next step will be milling the lumber for this build. We have A LOT of milling in our future.
***If you haven't checked out our Sawmill Cover Build from the beginning, definitely check out the playlist at the end of this video. We have shared the process of building this sawmill cover from the very beginning. We have a Woodland Mills HM130 Max sawmill and live in North Idaho. This sawmill cover / sawmill shed is vital to continue milling in the winter months, but it will also be a great way to keep out of the sun during the summer months, and of course all of the rain, in between! We are excited to complete this project, so we can continue milling lumber for our barn build.
Here are the specs on the sawmill cover / sawmill shed we are building:
3 posts in the front
4 posts in the back
Overall dimensions are 15 feet wide by 36 feet long
Longest beam is 28 feet
Front part of the lean to roof is 11'9" and back is 8'
It will have a 3 :12 pitch
Posts and beams are going to be 7 1/2" x 7 1/2"
We will be sharing the entire build!
