I tried to post here earlier but it wouldn't let me 

Thanks for the pics and the story to go along with it.How were the mill-fried pork&beams?

Actually, we never got around to eating them pork & beams. The sweet tater was rotten on one end so we chunked it in the bushes right off. This wound up being a photo opt to express our grief and absents in respect of all the funnin' going on at the pig roast at Jeffs place. Cooking an armidilla on the grill just didn't seem fittin'. We knew it had to be pork. What was good intentions of having a southern pig roast at DanGs house, turned into putting what we had on the manafold of his MD. A can of potted meat, vienna sausage, beanee weenees and a sweet tater. Hope to make it to the pig roast next year.

Now, I just want to know how much swing blade technique Professor DanG imparted on Saturday.  I taught him everything he knows

Just kidding, dimension saws and swing saws take a log apart in VERY SIMILAR ways,  ya got a good mentor there to learn from.  Hopefully we can help you more at Moultrie, still not sure if I am going or not...

Congrats on a fun day, and slow down in those bottom slabs...

Thanks Captain. Just one minor correction, though.  You taught me everything I SUSPECT about swingblade sawing.

I hope I can be a small help in getting Mike over some of the bumps in this road he is taking.  He'd do just fine on his own, but should learn faster if I can warn him of some of the potholes.  One thing's for sure, though!  I'll learn just as much, if not more, as he will.

I will say one thing, after the little slap hop, I am thinking REAL HARD about building me a dogging mechanism.  DanG, I haven't forgotten the design you suggested.  I've even been thinking about ways to make it more general.

So what would it cost for me to have a mill just like brdmkr"s . I am really turned on by this swinging kind of lifestyle    Seriously I think these mills are something I would like someday .
