Hi Kype:

I didn't know we had any 1600 mills in Scotland. Any idea of the path it took before arriving in your hands? Where exactly are you?

Please feel free to call or email us if you have questions, need parts etc.

Best Regards,

Will Johnson, President

Hiya Kype: Welcome

My folks are coming your way this September as it was my great , great grandfather's homeland. Not sure which part of Scotland because there are so many conflicting accounts. He's burried here in Hampstead, outside of Saint John, NB.

Spend a little time in the Holy Loch and Dunoon area back in the mid seventies.  Will always remember the many shades of green.  Some of the prettiest green I have ever seen in all my travels.  Also remember the weather out on the Firth of Clyde; it snowed, sleeted, rained and was sunny all in about 2 minutes.  :o :D :o :D :o :D

Hello KYPE, and welcome! Nice to see one more member from the "right" side of AO ;D

I´m also a rebuilder, don´t know for shure what brand of sawmill I have. Think I could live with a TK 1600. 8) One day perhaps I go to Norway and buy one. 
Also wish I could go to the "other" side and meet all nice people there. Perhaps the pig roast 2019..................... :D
