Just wondering if anyone has ever added an electric feed to an smg champion? seems like an obvious modification to me. I just put an electric feed on a 21 hp chainsaw mill but found a bandsaw mill reasonably priced so I am selling the chainsaw mill 1/4" kerf means 1" of magic tree dust for every four cuts..... mind blown! If I was a sawdust factory I'd be getting somewhere! alas I am moving on to a band mill, but the thought of giving up my power feed is slightly depressing. ill add photos and a video to this post in a bit. Thanks.

Ironwood,Welcome to the forum.I don't have experience adding a power feed but it has been done quite often.One forum member recently added a WM LT15 power feed to his non-WM mill.Forum member Kellogg added power feed to his Cook's manual mill.A forum search,adding power feed for instance, should lead you in the right direction.

Power Feed, Woodmizer. Added to my mill.
