Looks don't matter. Functionality does!! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
I'm soon to have a bunch of cherry, maple and walnut logs to make lumber from. I've marked a dozen trees and cut three already. I don't have $3000 - $5000 for a "name brand". I'm looking for an "Egon"-type of sawmill that will save me some $$$. I only need the rough cut, I can finish cut them later.

It'll take about a week and a half till some pictures are available. Don't have a Digital camera so have exposed film put on disk when it's developed.

Man, this is a great project. I will follow with great intrest. Hmmm. That slab built porch may be possible now. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I found the "Woodbug" quite interesting, and though I'm not gonna buy one, I'd like to know how the guide for the nose of the chain saw bar works.

That could be Gmason making some change making some portable sawmills! /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
He could call them "The Hornet's Nest" based on earlier posts by him! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
