Looks great and the location looks real handy too.  :)  Nice smooth working surface, handy to the tools, and a place to start stacking lumber and to put the slabs.  A big blower to launch the sawdust at least to the neighbors will be good.

Wich I had that one sometimes. Even here in Rocky Småland a poor swede sometimes has to leave some logs too big for Amerika-Sågen.

Congratulations DonE911!

Actually the location is not so good and it can't stay there.

The driveway isn't big enough for our vehicles and it takes a 3 point turn just to turn around.

With the mill set up there it takes a ten point turn...  I blocked off the garage entrance so I can't get the other ATV out.  

I have a dozer comming in later this week to clear about 2 acres at the bottom of the hill.....  half for the wifes horses and a barn and the other half for me, the mill, a kiln and whatever else I can make fit.

Go for 3 acres if you can and make the split 1 for the wife and horses, 1 for you and the toys, and 1 more for elbow room and future toys.  Don't say anything to your sweetie about the future toys.  :D

Well I'm gonna do 2 1/2 ( don't tell the wife ) acres, but thats all the space there is down there.

We are looking for a bigger place..... so maybe in a year or two I can have all the space I need.

I made that trip a little while back for the same reason.  I went to Tenn. with Deadheader when he acquired Woodbeard's Peterson.  I'm experienced.  :D 

I don't know how you went but I could have showed you some good eatin' places. ;D

Your really gonna be crowded when you park that bulldozer in your driveway too. :D

There was sawdust on Sunday afternoon..... Mary took most of it down to the mailbox area where she was planting some plants to pretty it up some... the rest got blown off with the leaf blower.

Tom I found some good places along the way.  We stopped at the Pilot truck stop for coffee, gas and Mcd's ;D ;D  One the way home we stopped at Pilotruck stop ( different one ) for more coffee and a sweet roll ;D ;D   When I say we... my oldest son went with me... I needed someone to snore in the passenger seat..... needed the trip to be as normal as possible ;)

I grew up with toys like that and would like to get some more but if you can't eat it and it has a hole at both ends I don't need it to bad unless gas prices keep getting crazy then your toy's might be a great investment.
