TimberCreek

Hello everyone, we appreciate being added to this group.
We (Scott and Kay) are starting a new portable sawmill business in NorthCentralEast Tennessee (Long skinny State makes it harder to describe). We have been lurking on here for months, talking to a lot of people, planning and researching. We looked at woodmizer, cook, timber king and everything else we could find and finally settled on TK for a few major reasons warranty being high on the list.
We look forward to asking a lot of questions and getting a lot of feedback.
We are ordering our mill in a day or two and will be going to KC to pick it up in about 6 to 8 weeks.

as far as other things we have done.
Built several of our own barns and houses, worn out several chainsaws and almost worn out a Carlton ox stump grinder clearing many acres of land.

we have a ton to learn still and look forward to thoughts and suggestions.

thank you
TK 2000 debarker, dragbacks, full hydro.
Portable or at home.

TimberCreek,

Congratulations on your new business and the purchase of a new TK Sawmill. If you don't already know you will learn a lot from this forum and you likely will not find a better place to come for real answers on questions about the sawmilling business. As a happy TK owner myself I was wondering what mill you selected?
