Yikes!  Glad I don't get everything I wish for. 

[Chuck White]

Oh, my eyes.   

I would have to pack my lunch before I could saw all of those.   

And your sleeping bag!    ;)

[Dave_]

My first guess would be Doug County.  But might be a yard up your way.  Maybe Weyerhaeuser Cottage Grove?

[thecfarm]

Like that loader too. Or is it a unloader?  ;D

That be the old Sun Studs yard in Roseburg
Big as the 988 loader is it can be what ever it wants to be ;D ;D
Belive the mill goes thru 50+ loads a day

[Okrafarmer]

And to think, they said all the whacks were gone from Roseburg 25 years ago! 

[Dave_]

You fooled me with that camera angle :D
My dad ran their log pond back in the day.  He said he would come home almost everyday smelling like skunky logs after falling in.  In the summer, it was common place to "slip off" the logs and take a cool dunk.  Sun Studs was one of the first mills in the nation to computerize their operation.  They have always been a very fast stud mill.

Here you go not real good pic but

[customsawyer]

Are the logs in the stack cut to length or tree length?

[mad murdock]

random length, 22-40 ft plus 12-14" trim.  depends on the mill spec, some mills out here go down to 12' +trim.  Nice whack of logs CC! that load come off the home place? or are you hauling for someone else? I was through there yesterday afternoon, we have a crew starting a fertilizer job for plum creek betweem camas valley and coquille.

[5quarter]

Wow!

A whack like that might keep Jake busy for two, maybe three days... ;)

[Meadows Miller]

Gday

I was about to say Roseburg I always remember a good log yard or mill I drove rite past it last year come over the top of the hill and thought this is the beep   ;) :D ;D ;D 8) 8)

You see abit of sapwood on some of those second,third rotation trees our plantation stock here had a 1 to 2" band at 60 to 80 years old  ;). whats wood like that running a ton  ???

It would not take him long at all need another couple of LT70s though  ;) dont worry about Jake  ;) :D I am still thinkin/dreaming of a mill on the West Coast we use alot of Douglas Fir in Australia  and its a very viable option ;)

When theirs that many its a "wonk" of logs. Frank C.

[customsawyer]

I have never cut spruce or fir so there would be a learning curve of a couple of days so it might take me a week. :D :D :D :D :D
Plus another 6 months or 2 years. ;D

[Okrafarmer]

Ah, you're good enough to run two or three LT-70's at once.

[Meadows Miller]

Never say never now put those logs through a debarker with a scanner and pocket sorter then run one one dia and length sort at a time two or three mills with everything tied into one console he could do it  ;) :D ;D 8)

[Okrafarmer]

With the accuset he hardly has to think about it once he's got the log on there the way he wants it! Yes, I maintain, he could run 3 at once.
;D
