WOO HOO. was planning on waitin another week for my connection to get ahold an Amish gentleman to my south, but decided to go for a drive in the snow and knock on some doors.  I owe thecol bigtime. I am sure The colonel, a ff member, wouldnt mind my name dropping here.  Thanks again man for the tip.  Got ourselves a norwood mark 4 with 20' track, axle and wheels (flat), tow boards and rollers and 10 xtra blades. really good shape, maybe 2 truckloads of logs put thru it, he said.  i will bring home in a couple weeks on a flatbed.  I know, I know...pics are downloading from phone to email on another screen as I type this.  I swear I will figure out the picture thing tonight.

Oh, we are so excited!! ;D
I'm here to stay :D

Take steps to save steps.

If it won't roll, its not a log; it's still a tree.  Sawmills cut logs, not trees.

Sawing is fun for the first couple million boards.

Be smarter than the sawdust

Good for you m wood. Looks like you have a good place to keep it out of the weather. I got me a Norwood last month, but the weather has been so cold and sloppy I haven't got to use it very much. I wish I had a place like you have to to get outta the weather. Happy milling!

own mistakes. Congrats on the new to you mill, you will have lots of fun making sawdust.

There are some design elements of that mill that I would prefer to my LT40.  I've just never seen one in FL. 

Congrats on the mill. 

Make much sawdust!
