It looks like you got a much larger sawmill with a GMC power unit, you should be able to do some real sawing. Is this going to be just a hobby or do you plan on making some money sawing?

I would kill for this mill but it is not mine  >:( >:( >:( It belongs to Dwane(feller who built mine) It is an American mill looks beefer than Belsaw but I can cut better lumber than he can. Reason is Bellsaws have arbor and carrage on same frame this makes them easier to keep alinged. I can slice a 1/4" piece off an 16 ft cant every time not saying I have not done some shimming and tweaking to things ::) ::) ::)
