Title: Lumber Delivery/Video
Post by: 123maxbars on March 10, 2016, 09:42:07 AM
My best customer was needing some poplar to finish a barn project. He is turning one of his barns into a wedding chapel.
I ran out of poplar but luckily I have a friend with a small operation like mine that had plenty. I took the camera along with
me to show my days work.  Thought you guys on here would like to see it. That is his 22 year old daughter running the Mizer!

I enjoyed the video and thanks for taking the time to share your day with us.   :)

Not trying to be critical, but I saw some lumber that would have never left my sawmill.  Maybe it was "thrown in" for good measure which I commonly do.

It was, once I meet my board footage number I throw in any small pieces/left overs. People usually really appreciate the extra material.
