Hi folks

Had to replace the 172 gasser in my TJ200 this past fall. I dont want to talk about why!

Got a nice donor from a ford tractor and swapped it in without issue. Now the clutch is giving me grief. Wont disengage even with proper adjustment.

I need to produce thinly cut pine and incense cedar. It will be used in a laser engraver and cutter that is limited to 1/4" or thinner thickness. Typical logs are 9' long and 18" diameter.

Cutting-- any suggestions on sawmill operation for thin stock? Blade type, sawing speed, cut method, etc? 6-8" width is plenty.Read More
