Do you have trees to grow? Logs to saw? A forest to manage? Chainsaws to fix? A sawmill to purchase or maintain? Timber related business to run? Lumber to dry? Trees or plants to identify? A cabin to build? Are you hungry and like FOOD?

Or would you just like to pull up a stump and visit with a friend?
If any of these and a multitude of other topics apply, then The Forestry Forum is the place for you.

Appreciate if you could humor an old man. Drawing a blank. For a sawmill like a big circle saw, there is a name for the hinged /articulated arm that bridges over the saw head from the cab to the set works. Carries the electric and/or hydraulic lines. One end is stationary. The other end traverses back and forth with the carriage. Read More
