    Great seeing you up and running with your sawmill! Looks like a great machine! Hope we can get a chance to talk splitting and sawing this year in Ohio. Have a great weekend!

    Love it! Could become a new branch of the business! Love the left over slab wood for my wood stove. Stacks in the stove really nicely.

      Hi Dick, I think you will find a good market for whatever you can mill. I have often thought some of the wood I have made into firewood should have been sawn and made into nice lumber. Now you have choices! Keep moving 👍👍👍

    Hello Mr. OGF & Son, Great Job on the log, finished cuts look real good, it takes a little time cutting to be able to cut as fast as Chuck Rodger's did, but you will get there, the real fun starts when you have a log with 6 inches of taper, or crooked and tapered, cutting the live board edges of a log cut through and through, it is all fun if you do not take it too serious when you are in learning mode, Best of Luck.

    Great day at the mill, Dick. What better way than to spend sons and dad day producing lumber. Sure beats my experience with my father-in-law's old diesel circular mill where I was did all the off bearing of slabs. But the was 52 years ago. Take care.

    Definitely a lot of fun making lumber outa logs . Eventually you will just look at a log and know ware to make ya cuts . Watch out for ya log stops trust me eventually you will forget and run the blade into one of ‘em .

    Dick that LX50 seems pretty sweet. It’s funny the next step for many woodhounds is hobby milling. Though I have the Granberg & Logosol chainsaw mills I’d love to get a small bandsaw mill.
    Its great having your son help out. Stay safe 👍TCT

      I looked at a lot of entry level mills Tony. The just come out with a LX50 Start that's $2995. It has a 9.5hp motor instead of the 14hp like mine, and I think the track is shorter. The LX50 Super was right at $4k. I think I'll have fun with it.

    The only advice I can give you is make sure you sticker stack your lumber right away. If you don’t it will warp beyond use unless you’re making fence boards.
