Some pictures of us doing the floor, We used milled 2x6 rough boards we cut with our mill for the floor and it was our intention to use that for the floor, but the boards shrunk and left big gaps, so we put 2 inch styrofoam sheets down first and then put 5/8 tongue and groove plywood for the...

For my log feed I used a simple roller design, pipe inside of pipe with paddles welded on and chain driven. as this moves at a very slow speed and I put grease zerks on I think they will last a long time. I considered using pillow bearings but they were costly and a lot more work, maybe the...
