In this video, Greg gets back on the sawmill... it's been about two months since the last time he milled a huge timber. Feels good to be back on and so thankful for this sawmill cover because it rained ALL day and Greg was undercover!
Greg grabs a doug fir log and mills up a 6x10x22 timber (the 4th post out of 14 needed posts for the barn). He is also able to get two 2x6x22s and two 1x6x22s. Slowly, but surely getting back to it! It's going to be the winter of the sawmill!

Did you know we are building a barn out of wood that we are milling on our own sawmill?! If you haven't followed along with our BARN Build, make sure to check out that series in our playlists. We finished the slab this summer and are on a pause while we mill all of the lumber needed for the barn build. We have A LOT of milling in our future.

Here is the video where we share our barn plans. Our plans are from ‪@BarnGeek‬ and we are excited to build one of his beautiful barns!

   • Why Do We Think WE CAN BUILD A BARN?!...  

***We are so excited to have completed our sawmill cover enclosure (sawmill shed). Definitely check out our Sawmill Playlist to watch it all happen. We have shared the process of building our sawmill cover from the very beginning. We have a Woodland Mills HM130 Max sawmill and we live in North Idaho. The sawmill cover / sawmill shed is vital to continue milling for our barn build 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!

Here are the specs on the sawmill cover / sawmill shed we built:

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 have shared the entire build!
