Yup, I noticed the time of your post this morning.

I chuckled  ;) figuring that you had the "New Toyitis".  That is a very contageous viral infection  smiley_sick  and you must take immediate steps to quarantine yourself preferably with the sawmill and with others displaying similiar symptons.......smiley_thumbsup

  Magicman,

  We can't get the dern thing outta the shop..  It's heated and we'd rather run out cut a few logs off and run back and saw'M! I didn't even know what time it was when I posted that note..  I did know I was leave'n twin cheek marks in the snow by the time I got in last night!  ;D

  I'm in good comapny too..  My brother and my sister's kid (he's 36) were in there the same as I was. I think we're on to something, I had a young man drive here from K.C. today and we let him mill his own boards. I just charged him $10. for the wood and $50.00 for the pleasure of cutting his own!!!  :D

Neat twist on sawmilling- rent-a-mill: you supply the wood and the mill, they make lumber, and you make a whole lot more than if you just cut it yourself. 

Of course, there is that little matter of liability and lawsuits... "it's all fun and games till someone loses an eye."  Guess which movie that's from, not that Christmas is almost on us.

"More married" is a nice way of putting it- I like that; comes with the territory of being married, and I definitely like that.  Ups and downs and all, with four kids and six grandkids- life is good after 42 years of it, and we're just getting started!

Merry Christmas, all, and to all a good night! (never too proud to steal a good line)

About $180.  Go to the Forum Extras button at the top of the page and go to the Tool Box.  There is a board foot calculator there.

Thanks, some trees I had logged were over 1000 a pop and they were around 20 inch diamater. The logger said they were of excellent quality with very little sapwood.  Most of them resprouted so I put guards up to keep the deer from browsing them and hope to harvest some walnuts to plant elsewhere on the farm for my son to harvest in the future.
