Hey Rick,   I lived in Bennington for a while years ago.   Worked at Benmont Paper  making Christmas wraping paper all year long.    I live in Virginia now.   Congrats on the new mill.   You will be happier than a "Edited by Admin" billy goat!    Pete.

Welcome aboard Arlo ! A great place to hang out here.

BTW, Don't  be caught smiling too much when you first get to milling on the new mill..... sawdust is liable to fall out!  ;)  Nice mill that 1400...

Welcome to the Forum! Good luck with the new mill. I forsee a few flat rock foundation timber frame structures going up in your area soon after you get your 1400.  ;)
