It is not the years, its the mileage AND some of us have been driving in four wheel low lock our whole lives.  Those are some hard miles.

I had the same problem with not enuf trusses when I built my house, but since I sawed the lumber and nailed them together, I just sawed out a couple more, after I fetched the logs of course.

Hang in there Steve.

Why not put this 'howdy' with your "Shop update" thread (rather than start a new thread for us to wonder what was happening ;)  ) ??

I've been hanging in there Steve. The usual- machinery repairs, vehicle repairs, house repairs, getting ready for winter, etc., etc. :( Then finding time to work on the mill. I should be back on track shortly and hopefully will post up some more progress photos.  Can't wait to see all the new machines to fill that nice shop. ;)
