Sawmills and Milling / Re: Horizontal slab shaver.
Last post by Andries - Today at 04:33:57 PMOn YouTube, there was a well done series called "Linda's Sawmill Cinema"
Linda would be catching lumber from the mill, feeding the resaw and a son would stack lumber or feed edgings into a "next dimension" machine.
All you could see on the video was the slabs or edgings going on a conveyor to a hole in the wall, never to be seen again. I always assumed there was a hungry hammer mill outside the mill shed.
Dave, is it reasonable to say that you want the slabs and edgings to be turned into sawdust or mulch without any additional horsepower or expense? You're one of the most practical and down-to-earth guys on this Forum.
Just having a wishful moment?

Last post by WV Sawmiller - Today at 04:02:26 PM Sounds like a real nice piece of machinery. Glad you figured out the problem and the fix. Maybe @OlJarhead is not too far from you and can come look at your set up one of these days.

FOOD! FOOD! FOOD! / Re: What's for dinner?
Last post by SwampDonkey - Today at 03:27:43 PMFry up some cabbage and onion and have with a big fat sausage.
We eat kraut once in awhile here, we don't make it, it's made 200 miles from here near Moncton, NB I believe. Source of vitamin K2 is fermented veg.

Last post by SwampDonkey - Today at 03:15:09 PMGood luck with your plants. Don't over water them.
I planted a bunch of tomato seed on the weekend, 50 cells. I'll not plant all them, I pot over the strongest looking ones of each variety. I'll have more space this year, to space them out more. I'm guessing 36 plants will go in. More plum variety for sauce, last year they bore heavy. So don't the big beef variety I use, trouble with beef they take a long time to ripen unless we get lots of heat along with the water.

Last post by SawyerTed - Today at 03:10:42 PMOf course renting a machine for those infrequent or one-off kind of jobs is an option. That way it's possible to get bigger more powerful and heavier machines to do the job without paying for excess capacity long term.

That one was 42 years ago. @Southside, towing, lots of towing - a sawmill or a 18' car hauler, or a boat or a camper or a utility trailer. And lots of hauling lately.

Last post by fluidpowerpro - Today at 02:49:22 PMLooking back at the pictures of the hydraulic unit, it sure looks like it is one manufactured by Monarch.
