Arkansawyer, someday I will make it up there.  Just can't get away this weekend.  Hope everyone has fun.
I built my own band mill with the help of Forestry Forum.

It was a great time.  8)  Bibbyman got some photos and RMay was there and a guy named Tom (not the white haired one).  IT was a pretty day and a good crowd.   Pro Sawyer Mary did not win the bench.  A guy who is going to buy a mill won the gift certificate from WM.

Dawn breaking over Arky's sawmill operations.  Not that we were that early.  But the hill is quite a bit higher than the road.

 



People showed up early.  It was still a little nippy but turned out a nice spring day.  RMay off to himself to the far right. 

Wood-Mizer brought an LT50, LT35, LT15GO, an LT15 left in the crate.  They also brought and demoed their EG 50 single blade edger.  Arky had Wanda to demo and the LT70.

 



Here is Arky giving a lecture on the sawmill business and prepairing to demo how to make a cedar 4x4 post.   





Another shot of the LT50 getting ready for demo.  Dave Mann giving the talk,  Will Baugh ready to saw and Greg Beare somewhere off camera ready to offbear.

I kind of quit taking pictures after the first hour.  More people came, some left a little early.  We got back on the road about 2:00 and home about 7:00.

Lots of good visiting was done.  Thanks Arky and WM for putting on the show. 8)

Dukndog them kids are more important then a sawmill show.  The sawmills will be around and the kids will soon be gone doing their thing.
  It was a good show and Mary and Bibbyman were a big help.  Gary (not Bibbyman) did a good job running the grill and everything seemed to go well.  We had people showing up plum till 3 pm.  The weather was great, the food was great, and it was a very very good day to spend with friends and Welcome new people into the sawmill experience.
