Yes the norwood is the LM2000 with a 20 hp honda. I am really impressed with how quite the engine is. It seems the few logs I have managed to find have been to big for the mill. so I am getting better at quartering with the chain saw. I ordered 15 blades from menominee last week but as of today they are not here. all this waiting is about to kill me too. I so want to try the mill with a sharp blade. I am thinking that stickers are going to be a constant need. I hope i might find a few logs just to cut into stickers and dry but I am going to need quit a few as soon as those blades arrive as I have a few logs to cut and i can not wait.

gharlan I have several dozen blades for you I'll sell you cheaper than you can get anywhere else just to help a fellow Texan out. A few bucks each plus shipping. $3 how's that. Have a few new ones too same price. Just wanna get 'em out of here.
Call Norwood and ask them what problems they were having with those 20HP Honda's and if there is a revision or something you need to do. I can't remember what is was now but, when i bought mine several years ago like 3, the salesman told me when i was inquiring about what engine I wanted "If it was me I would get the 23HP Briggs, we are having some problems with the Hondas" So I would call and find out if there is any prevention you can do and what the deal was. Don't let 'em pretend nothing was wrong they were having widespread problems with the Honda 20HP.

thurlow, I knew what ya meant . . . but we all just good 'ol Southern boys in the end. :)

The oil is all in Texas, but the dipsticks are in D.C.

well I would love the blades Kevjay. let me now a total and an address and i will send you a check. and thanks about the honda. I think this mill is about three years old too, although I bet it does not have 2 hours on it. It still has all the new tags hanging on it. I tried to clean the air filter but could not blow any dust off. I really wanted something bigger but i felt at 50 cents on the dollar i could not go wrong. the same guy also has a nyle kiln that has never been uncrated. he is hoping I will return for it. but I am unsure of more toys right now.

  When I get away from home, people accuse me of being a Texan, don't know why?Don't really have the same accent up here in Kansas.  You probably have about as many trees down there, I can find plenty to saw if I work at it.  Have fun.  Keep posting.  Jim
