Todays milling called for an abundance of rain!  The rain guage says we had plenty, and I'm not a mud-miller.

Tomorrow is another day, and the ground will much more solid.  And I can get the mill in-n-out without making ruts in this fellas yard.  Still have a couple few oaks to slab at 6/4 thickness and I believe there was still three pine logs to make 2bys out of(I might be wrong on that count though).

Spoke to the customer this morning, and he is very pleased with the milling so far!  Really like it when that happens....
When I was out there, I snapped a few photo's earlier in the day, but got a little caught up in the process and forgot to do the during photo stuff(sorry).  The mill still has some growing pains, just things I'm not use to doing....but I am catching on quickly.  And the timber is coming off quicker.



A few logs waiting their turn.




These are 'real' 2x4's!  None of that Home Depot stuff for this customer.




The two oak logs I cut into 6/4 thickness slabs were awesome!



Scott (old and sore, that's how I roll) B

Looks like a lot of fun err work

Sweet set up. Dad was thinking of buying a portable set up a guy he knows down the road. It was orange too.

Wood milling/ wood working would be cool.

Maybe a metal machining board, lots of good machinist here, be cool to see some tricks of the trade, techniques

" Just another way to use my chainsaw"  that's cool!
I'm so busy bidding jobs and dealing with billing, etc that I rarely get to enjoy running saw anymore, so I've been setting up some Saturday jobs so I can get into the mix and bond with my workers. Still recovering from Saturday!! Lol
