We're an easily distracted bunch.
Don't care what the web says I aint
adding fancy beer to my oil.

The day this post came up I was thinking.
Is it worth porting the oldies?
Probably not if hired out.

If a thread didn't get derailed, I'd become bored with all the saw talk.

In that case, when is your new sawmill supposed to show up? Got any good saw logs lined up to turn into cants for your GTG?
About two weeks from the day I ordered it is what they say.

I'll buy the cants rather than saw up my good logs. The poplar I have is going to be sawn for framing, fencing, and trim lumber.

I got a whole pile of oak, ash, and cottonwood to saw up down at my parent’s place…been too darn busy to get down there. Hopefully I can take the kids down for a sawmill day before the end of September.

Well, you got less than two weeks, lol.
I'm actually thinking mostly about setting up the mill in a way that I won't end up hating it later.
The saw in this thread has put a few on the ground,sure it could drop those too if needed.

Hullo Randy
Hello Brian. If my memory is to be trusted, I built this saw for you didn't I?

That is a good plan. We ended up building a 30’x50’ shed for mine, but it needed to be in order to house the husk & the entire track. Being that the frame is wood and that it is 80 years old, I didn’t want it being exposed to the elements. Nice to keep the sun & rain off you while sawing too.E69A04EE-A25B-4551-AB4E-1EEC7F8B068D.jpeg6F1C2479-D17E-4375-B537-816A84D275CA.jpegCECC9431-A92E-47E7-864F-8848C9F20D15.jpegDEFD13EC-4AE0-4892-8EAE-0CDEDB24FF6D.jpegDAF1210A-1500-428D-ABD7-4873E6A2F4E5.jpeg

I was planning on putting it in the old chicken house....but I think I'll put it over here closer to the house. 30x16 would be plenty big enough.
