A huge thanks to WDH

I would like to than WDH, Danny Hamsley, for giving me the opportunity to visit him last week and pick his brain on sawing, drying and anything else related to lumber. Danny is a very intelligent , knowledgeable and humble man who took the time to educate me and show me his operation.
The most impressive part of my visit was the hospitality and kindness that Danny and his wife showed, to someone that he had only spoken with via pm on the forestry forum. This is a true testament Danny's character and the kind of people that are on this forum.
Thanks again Danny and Jeff for a place to learn and meet fellow Sawyer's.

I'm finally glad you changed Danny. You treated me like a GOAT when I was down there! :D :D :D
Love ya Brother.

Ditto on the Kudos to Danny. He has even been known to send fresh peanuts to strangers stranded further north where they were unavailable and even grits are hard to come by. We need more people in this world like Danny.

Actually this visit sounds like scleigh was scammed. Danny pays da Goat $300 to entertain folks so that he can saw Very Valuable Walnut without being interrupted. Danny continues to rake in da big bucks, da Goat continues to rake in his $300, and no one is the wiser. smiley_dizzy

Not only does he know lumber, but he is a pretty fair bass player as well, and I understand he is working on becoming a lumber market man....

Danny knows his stuff . He is also part of The Georgia Gang

Danny is truly "salt of the earth." And POSTON, he treated you like a goat? Well, if the shoe fits... ;D
Okay; your turn.

Goat Shoes? I know horses frequently were shod but I don't recall ever hearing of a goat with shoes...

Danny is a veritable cornucopia of knowledge!

customsawyer · October 25, 2016, 05:57:15 AM

I think I've met him before but don't recall him being that nice to me. If I remember correctly I was called a certain name that I won't mention here

I was a pleasure having you down. When I come to see you, you better hide all that pretty walnut ;D. The kiln is aching for some walnut
