i got the 40 mill. the thing that gets me is the feed on the sawmill. it really pulls the blade into the log. the winch log turner works good.

That's great, congrats!

Any pictures?

I got my EZ a few months ago and I love it. Good luck!

diesel pap

its like it has a power feed. you have to be careful when starting off. like a magnet pulling :D

Just a heads up, I tarped my mill before a storm a few weeks ago and move the carriage to the end and set the brake. The wind came from the opposite direction and due to the tarp resistance, the carriage went to the other end and jumped off the track. Nothing was hurt, but its a bad feeling to see a 24hp, twin cylinder engine in the slab pile. Got my brother to set it back on the tracks and all is good.

Congrats on the new mill.  They are good sawmill's.

Just curious, will your tie buyer take 7?  Around here they want a bundle of 25.
