What I did with my Woodmizer Lt 40

[pedro.mahon]

Hi guys, pushing on with house build despite pretty horrible UK weather. The Woodmizer has recently sawn up the joinery for the windows and is currently air drying. Some of its 4" thick and the kiln is only designed for upto 3". Would appreciate any advice on drying. Air drying plus kiln best way fwd?
The mill has worked pretty much faultlessly, 800 hrs on the mill now. All floor joists, douglas fir, are installed, (6"x2") .  Anyways, hope you like the blog update. Cheers from England.

WOW
Great build and a huge sense of achievement, I'd bet.
Thanks for the link. I'll look all through it when I have more time.

wow Pedro, you HAVE come a long on the dwelling.  I was wondering about your progress just a while ago.  As heavy as those tiles are, your structure is certainly gonna support it! :laugh:

Crickey, you right about the weight on the roof, over 35 tons of tiles and batten!  The chimney was mass filled with concrete blocks and weighs at least 40 tons . The structural eng reassured me to not worry!

That is one huge project.  And it looks good.  Good luck and keep us posted on your progress.
