@@Mr4banging Got it.

started out with the Fronter OS 27 one of the reasons I got the HD 38 is for the hydraulics.

so far everything is going well.

Best of luck!

the trailer kit is and add on

Cool, thanks

no sorry, east coast Maryland

James, email Dave Boyt. He may be able to help you. He’s easy to find on UA-cam.

same here

I watched your videos wish I had it before I started this project. I had the mill up and running 2 weeks ago but have not had time to edit the video yet. Thanks for the comment.

@@ljmilling9157 Hope you'll post more videos of the mill in action. It took me much longer to make the video that it should have-- about six months. Lots of little things like getting my hand in the way, bad (or no) audio.... then, when I thought it was ready to go, Norwood told me that they had changed some of the parts, and I had to tear it down to where the spacer cones go on the winch, and rebuild it from there! Of course being a grandpa, other tasks around the place, and milling for the occasional customer stretched the project out a bit. I'm going to try to get on the Norwood Connect forum on a more regular basis. Hope you'll contribute your experiences advice there, as well.

I have had and OS27 for 2 years before I decided to upgrade. There is a tube that attaches to the oil drain valve that will make it so the oil clears the saw head.

Glad I could help

Got on the waiting list end of September with $500 deposit. Paid in full 1st or 2nd week of October. Arrived 10/28 with a few parts back ordered the last of which got here on 11/17.

You made me check the manual but there is not a brake on the HD 38 it is all held by the motor. My Fronter OS27 has the break so I know what you are talking about. I looked thru the parts that I still need to install, and don't see any brake parts. I wonder if you need to remove the brake from the HD36 when you add the power lift?

I emailed Trevor over at Norwood here is his response There is not a separate brake in the motor it is held in place just with the magnets & another reason its so important the battery be properly charged.

this was done before I received the jack stands. They were the last parts that I received from Norwood.

Just the leveling I had to do for assembling the bed on some 6x6

thanks

Thanks, a lot of me trying to do it like the manual said too got left on the editing room floor.

@@ljmilling9157 I was gonna make videos of the assembly of my mill but I couldn’t follow the manual as I thought I would. I had some issues with my log bunks not being as they should be. Norwood has assured me the issue won’t be an issue hehehe. So I’m thinking UA-cam may not be a thing for me. I have too much to do before the snow flys. I won’t be able to find the logs if I don’t get busy making sawdust. I can’t wait to see what ya build or do with the lumber you make. I gotta say having the sawmill and the ability to harvest my own logs is very freeing I can build what I need from my own resources. Maybe make a buck or 2 on the side.

I have a fronter OS27 that I have had for about 2 years. So, I have the advantage of having built a Norwood mill before. But the jobs that have been coming my way I needed a larger mill. As for the manual you need to read it front to back then back to front many times. The answer is there but it may be 20 steps later. There have been times I have had to redo a step because I did what I thought it said but not what it actually said LOL.

@@ljmilling9157 oh my I’ve been down that road already. It seems I’m able to assemble the mill backwards just for practice. In the end I’ll have it sorted out. I really wanted the hd 38 with the dealer throat but figure the 36 will do for now. I have access large overly heavy logs so thinking a Lucas 10/30 may be my next purchase just have to see how business goes.

That is awesome! more vids to come.

As I was assembling the bed a drift pin was my best friend. I also tightened some of the bolts to get the rails and splice plates pulled tight then backed them off just a bit so that I could fine tune the rails. All of my rails butt tight but there are a few small gapes between the splice plates. As for your problem I would start at the center and work outward, pull a bolt and use a drift pin or a pry bar www.harborfreight.com/hand-tools/hammers-pry-bars/pry-bar-set-3-pc-68339.html to pull the rails together. Tighten one bolt each side of the joint before rechecking level then move on to next joint rinse and repeat. I left most of that out of the video just me bent over trying to pull things in to alignment. Your right about the bed being heavy, specs say that it is 755lb. I had to use my tractor to lift it to get the blocks under it.

@@ljmilling9157 I’m using a drift pen as well and I’ve also used a couple of ratchet straps one on each side and tighten the snot out of it so I pulled everything together.
