Hey guys and gals,

Just wanted to introduce myself. Im brand new here, Im work in the lumber industry in a sales postion with a Sawmill and Secondary Manufacturer in western Canada (Im lucky I still have my computer and they haven't cut that yet). Anyway, with all this extra time on my hands I figured I would sign on here and see what you can teach me.

Anyway, wanted to introduce myself.

Welcome to the Forum Shadyremanner.

Lots of knowledge here, but we recognize that education works both ways. :D

Draw a cup of coffee, pull up a chair and make yourself comfortable.

Do you have any Pictures, or good stories? ;D

ErikC · March 23, 2009, 01:06:54 PM

Welcome. Let us know more about what you're up to in the lumber department.

Well Im in sales so not a whole lot. Our company sells about 150 000 000 FBM annually or SPF products. We try avoid producing dimension lumber because of the mega mills selling for huge losses, it's not fun for use to try lose as much money as the big boys.

Any other questions? I would be happy to share my tainted and limited knowledge.

There's Chris (meadows miller) he's a very knowledgeable guy once you get past the smileys. ;) :D He runs quite a big operation by himself!

I myself have a little LT10 and am probably complete opposites from your operation, except I don't cut dimensional either. :D

Welcome to the forum, there's lots to be learned here.
