Danny's New Toy

[Red Clay Hound]

Here are a couple of shots of Danny with his new (gently used) mill.  After a little excitement, we got the mill loaded on the trailer yesterday evening with no major damage! smiley_anxious  This morning, I fed him grits and sent him on his way. smiley_clapping

Congratulations Danny!  8)

An LT15 AND grits, what a deal!!!

[Raider Bill]

Thought he had a LT15?

[Weekend_Sawyer]

Well he does now!

[Red Clay Hound]

Thought he had a LT15?

He did.  This one has a 25 hp. engine vs. 15 with the old mill.  This one also has an extra bed section and is 6 years newer.

[Raider Bill]

Ah... I figured he was going bigger with hydraulics..  ;D

[Magicman]

And the saga continues.   8)   Congrats to both of you.   

[Red Clay Hound]

Ah... I figured he was going bigger with hydraulics..  ;D

I think Mr. Hamsley likes to keep things simple.  Except of course when he is describing the differences between the wood properties of Pignut Hickory vs. Mockernut Hickory. ;D ;D

Congrtas Danny!  8)

Nuthin' like an upgade

[metalspinner]

Can you bolt both mill beds togetehr in length?

I'm still wondering how your gonna run both mills at the same time. :-\

[DanG]

He can bolt the tracks together end to end, then put both mills on it in tandem.  Just set the back one an inch lower than the front one, and away he goes.  He can now cut twice as much lumber as Jake! 8) 8) 8)



Good thing he ate them grits!

[tcsmpsi]

In the excitement over the grits, he didn't forget the trailer, did he?    ;D

Well, the shed ain't big enough, now.  But, I've no doubt there is figuring going on in that calculatin' brain.   :D

Personally, I think it is swell!  Congratulations, Danny!  (gettin' kinda wild lookin' with 'retirement' and all)   :D

Now you're talkin' DanG!  That's some sophisticated thinkin' you're doin' there.  I can't wait to see that setup! :D :D

[Jemclimber]

Congratulations!!!!  I'm not sure what the clamps look like, hopefully the older swing up style.  I love my 15 with the exceptions of the clamps that should be upgraded soon.

Don't get too excited to see 2 lt 15's together or an addition on the shed since the wdh's older lt15 is up for sale.

[Radar67]

Now he just needs to figure out how to run them both at once to double his production.... ;)

[Sixacresand]

[scsmith42]

Danny is not only very ingenious but also energetic. I'm sure he can make that work! ;D

[Texas Ranger]

he is keeping strangely silent, not like  him.  There is a plot afoot.

[Holmes]

Good move Dan, double the pleasure double the fun...  8)

[Dodgy Loner]

Very nice Danny, you're lucky I live on a 1/2 acre lot or that sawmill may have been headed to Mississippi :D

I understand the process of loading the mill caused a bit more excitement than anticipated - glad to see it's still in one piece.
