Look what happened to my Logosol M7 mill on video
« on: August 25, 2007, 08:34:11 pm »
Today I have decided to mill this wood so I have placed the big log on this Logosol M7 mill. The minutes I have placed the log on the bed, it destroyed everything as you can see in this video unbelievable to what happened. I am thinking know to copy this same mill and build it from 2 inch tube with 3 mm thickness I am very sure it will do.

That is terrible to see Alsayyed. What did you find out was the problem with your smoking chain? Keep us posted on your repairs. Joe

I hate to see that.  I know you must feel terrible.  Keep your head up and keep us posted as to what you ultimately do to begin sawing again.

Man, that's a shame. But in all honesty it might have saved your life. The very first thing I saw was you had the boards the mill sits on running the wrong way. The whole thing , had it not collapsed, could have rolled over on top of you.

Alsayyed, Maybe it isn't as bad as it looked at first.  It looked to me like you might be able to straighten up the legs and and reattach them, maybe add some bracing, and save the mill.
