Joanie

I'm Joanie, I love to run my 1991 Wood Mizer lt40hd. I have a debarker on it, 24 hp Onan. Right now I'm sawing popular and pine, for wall paneling and trim, in a log home we are building. I'm in college also getting my degree in architecture drafting, 1 more semester to go!! I have been lurking for a while, the advice on here has been so helpful.

Hey Joanie, welcome aboard. Study hard and maybe you can lend us some advise to us about throwing boards together.
Since I retired I really like work: It fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours.

Bought it used about 5 years ago. The guy I contract work for saw em down, then I stage with my bob cat 873.
Thanks every one for the warm welcome. I've had people call me wanting their log sawn , and ask to speak to the owner of the mill, when I say thats me, they kind of freek out. Daddy all ways taught us girls to be self suffeshent.
