Hi Guys,
I have a Gearmatic 8A that I have been working on. I got a bunch of new parts to put it back to factory specs and found out that someone cut the U-cup shoulder out of the bearing screw cap.
If anyone has a parts winch or knows where I can look for parts I would be grateful.
Thanks

I recently watched a video by " Sawing with Sandy". In the past he first had a manual Woodland Mills HM`130 and he used it for several years, then maybe 2 yrs ago he bought a Woodland Mills HM 130 Max, very similar to his original but able to cut bigger logs (but only slightly bigger). Now in the last month or so He bought a Clark Sawmill.Read More

I'm looking at adding a new Woodmizer EG200 edger to the lineup to aid in efficiency and production levels.

I'd welcome other suggestions for comparable edgers though. Read More

I delivered some parts to a garage and saw a brand new Wallerstein 3pt winch on back of a 55 hp tractor.
never been used at all.
He said he is looking forward to wearing the paint off it.
I think he said it was a 4000 model?
I am ready to get going!!!!
