Probably a real dumb question here, but in the pictures of your mill it looks like the log stops are on the same side as the loader arms and it looks like the blade is sawing "away" from the log stops? That is backwards from the way I would have pictured it.

One of the best features of a Timber Harvester.... you saw into fresh cut would instead of bark..

Dewey,
That is the best part about the Timber Harvester, always cutting into clean wood instead of having to run the mud saw/ debarker all the time.

My WM does not have a debarker.After my opening cut I most always turn the log into the back stops,270°,so I'm cutting in to clean wood.I feel it makes a big difference in blade life and reduces the time spent cleaning logs.I still pay attention to the exit side of the log for dirt and rocks.I don't like to see sparks when I'm sawing.

With TH you are able to turn it once and you able to get into a clean piece of wood, that saves me so much more time then having to do that a bunch of times.

Timber Harvesters demise certainly wasn't due to an inferior machine.  I still maintain that it was perhaps the best out there. Internal problems are what sunk the company.

They went out of business the year I started looking for a mill.I was disappointed.The man behind the business had built a firewood processor that was as fully featured as the sawmills.I agree with Brad,the mills were top shelf.
