Man, if God will let me live without seeing another one of those, it will be a blessing. On January 1, 1974 I was in The North Sea with the wind in excess of 120 m.p.h.. the seas were running 60-80 feet. There was a rig that had broken loose and was drifting toward us. I said Lord if you will let me live long enough to get my property paid off, I promise you I'll never come back here. The drifting rig changed direction some four miles from us and went by us. To me there are kinf of like looking at a horse shoe. When you've seen one, they all look about the same.

We did the acme screw lft system on the sawmill yesterday. It seemd to be nice. Works off a hydraulic motor. Two toe boards to go then hopefully we'll be finished.

Can you bring your blade sharpener when you bring the mill?

Home-built portable 48" circle mill rescued from the fence row, much to my wife's disapproval.

DanG · « **Reply #110 on:** February 23, 2006, 11:24:21 am »

Welcome jrob! You may never get your wife's approval, but you sure got ours!

I'd like to see some pics.

Welcome to the forum jrob. As far as I can tell, everything seems normal.

jrob · « **Reply #112 on:** February 23, 2006, 05:51:54 pm »

This is currently the only picture that I have. The photo shows helper #3 "helping" as I replace some bolts underneath. Mill spent 40 years in a fence row prior to me dragging it home. Could definitely use paint but it is more fun to make sawdust.

Larry · « **Reply #113 on:** February 23, 2006, 06:50:38 pm »

Welcome jrob...see ya already got the picture thing down pat and that is a good picture.

Even though I’m cross the line a little joined up with KFPA (Kansas Forest Products Association) last month.

Good to have you on board jrob. It's especially good to see another circle saw guy

Welcome jrob, as Corley said, it is great to have more circle guys onboard, seeing how we are way down in numbers from the rubber band guys

I am probably close to you, so if you need any help, just yell.
