mill pictures

sjfarkas · June 05, 2011, 10:03:02 PM

I looked at iron inventory and after a few pages saw no pictures. Then I just saw the post for who has bandmills. Can we just have a post of mill pictures? Maybe one for band mills, one for circle and one for csm? I don't have a mill so I can't post pics, but I love looking at them. I hope you all agree with me on this one.

Nice mill Bill and I see Paul has managed to flaunt his huge buildings again to those of us with building envy.

And, here it is at its first set up, in about the same spot it is in today, cutting the timber taken to make room/materials for the millshed, house additions, etc.

Hi everybody. Here is a picture I took last week of my Norwood Lumbermate 2000. Those are red oak logs ready to be milled.

This is a picture I took last November of the Lumbermate 2000 loaded with an ash log. My mill is now 10 years old and still running great.

Sprucegum · June 10, 2011, 06:19:21 PM

WildDog · June 15, 2011, 07:12:37 AM

After seeing the great sheds you guys have I think its about time the Lucas got treated with a little respect and I moved her under cover.

WDH · June 15, 2011, 09:52:23 AM

Nice green tractor.

smwwoody · July 07, 2011, 10:54:53 PM

Looks good. I have a soft spot for those old bell saws and the old fricks. I learnsd on an old frick and then started sawing on the Bell saw every weekend. but that was 29 years ago.

Woody
