Well I am just about finished with my build of a Linn Lumber model 1900, I used thier plans but improvised on tensioner ( porta power and cylinder), Acme rods are 1 in 4 with std bushings, guides are Cooks with greasable bolts. Chinese-Honda 420cc motor. And v groove rollers.
Quite a few parts and holes are not listed on the prints but you can pick up where they should be by the video. More images in gallery.



Sorry to the Moderator that I screwed up the pictures the first time ;D

Maybe you could put rubber wheels and a hitch on it and not be tied to a track :D Truly mobile sawing!

Beautiful mill!  I am just starting to build a 190-A.  Kind of wish I went with a 1900 in some ways, but if I ever need a bigger one I'll just build another  :D
