I had to say goodbye

Saying goodbye is almost never easy. But sometimes it is in the best interest for everyone involved.

 

Recently, my girl has been constantly complaining about how I'm treating her. She said that I've just been working her too hard. So, I let her run off with another man and she seems to be happy now.


 

I had the lovesick blues, and I knew I had to get past it somehow. After dating around, I found a new gal and decided to bring her home. I hope she likes to work.

If I don't pick myself up by my own bootstraps, nobody else will.

Yes sir it is a CAT engine. I'll probably go ahead and do the preventative gasket maintenance on it sometime soon. I set it up after work today and sawed one slab off a pine log right at dark. I've got to learn how to use the Accuset 2 in a hurry because there is sawing to be done.

You'll love it.  Nice machine.  Accuset 2 rules. 8)

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.

Heads up..... bigger mill = bigger production = more wood = more girlfriends toys.   ;D ;D

I've got around fifty-sixty 18"-32" syp logs on the ground that need to be sawn into 4/4 this weekend.
I'm ready to make some sawdust. This thing will chew through a pine log like nothing I've ever seen. This machine is just the first component of the goals/plans I have committed to. Chasing my American Dream, learning and having a blast along the way.

And this thing has a gazillion electrical components on it and all I know is that I can make it saw through a log like there's no tomorrow. I'll figure it out

Deese accuset is real simple.  Bibbyman has a 20min vidja online explaning how to use it.  I might make a shorter one kinda like a readers digest version for the impatient people like myself lol

If you want to call me sometime I can walk you through it.  PM me for number if you want.  Congrats on new mill. 8)

Since there aren't many SuperHydraulic sawmills for sale, I'm guessing that your new sawmill was for sale, then not for sale, and then obviously for sale again.  If so, it has 2650 hours on it??

Congratulations, Deese.  I bet you wished you could have kept the blue one, too.

Yes sir, it is a great well built machine. I sold it to a man less than 10 miles down the road. He seems to be happy with it, so it worked out for everyone.
