Actually no, but they have a strong wifi signal and when I gas up across the street my tablet will pick up the signal and update all of the emails I missed while away from home.  I don't really miss them since my phone also downloads them over 4G LTE if no wifi is available.

With all the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales I saw several Android tablets of various sizes for less than $30.

Perhaps not the wisest thing to do, connecting to that Mcdonalds, or any other unsecured wifi connection in this day and age.

A quick google search

I find one of these, Construction Master 5, to be very handy when sawing.  Particularly when working on a manual mill without any type of set works.  Allows me to calculate cant size including the kerf.

They are on sale at:  https://www.calculated.com/31/prd283/Construction-Master-5-Clearance.html.  Notice the free shipping to CONUS.

I just found this forum and wanted to say thanks for all the help folks are giving. I am the author of the Sawmill Calculator App. I have gotten a few documentation comments. Would a YouTube video giving a walk through be helpful? Are there other things I could do to help?

Well Starbucks always has a good signal, you can caffeine up and magic can even stare up to the sky using the free app god gave us (yes eyes) and see what's a coming.  Smart or flip or corded not necessary

Welcome to the Forestry Forum, granterickson.  I have the Sawmill Calculator Pro on my I5.  Thank You Sir.   

I also have "Bartlett Tree Experts: Green Log Weight Chart" and "Anthony Forest Products: Span Calculator".  These three Apps are handy to me because I often do not have cell/internet service.

I have had occasions to need a green lumber weight calculator when I did not have cell service.  That would be a welcomed addition to the Sawmill Calculator.

This topic is dancing all around the forum rules.

That last comment may have Trumped them all

The deal is we have sponsors that support the forum. If they want to do market research, it is done via a paid for sponsor board  but not on an open forum.  It's one thing for a member to say hey!  I found this handy app, it might be of use to you, but this topic has went way beyond that.
