I found two 14 year old boys to help me on friday and saturday. They were OK until noon but after that their attention span was worse then a 6 month old puppy..lol At the end of the day I seen it took the both of them to carry a 0ne inch board..lol I almost wet myself laughing.

I'm hoping to find a good help soon, Im thinking my little mill adventure is taking off in  good way. After many years of doing many different things  think I finally found my calling :new_year:

I have a 14 year old grandson that "helps" me. He usually does not get here until early evening. TV is on until 10:30-11 at night. Next night it's not.  ;D  He's in bed way before 10.

Lyle,
  Happy to hear your operation is going well. You have put a lot of effort and money into it. Try one 14 year old at a time rather than two.

It was -20 this morning but I managed to finish a couple of orders. The 1 inch boards are gonna be used for ice fishing shacks

     POSTON, I bet he's talking about -20C, not F.  That's hardly cold enough to cause a shiver.  (Spoken by somebody who lives in Florida now...) ::)
