i recently found an old sawmill in the woods, that belonged to my great grandfather. I found on one of the pieces "Corley 01. does anyone have good pictures of a complete corely 01 model sawmill, so that I can try to set this one up?
Welcome to the forum! I don't know anything about Corley sawmills, but I bet Corley5 might be along to help you out. ;)

Welcome ga.player! I don't have a clue to your question, but I was wondering, what part of GA are you from (where do you stay at?? ;D)
I presently live in Columbus, the sawmill is in Douglas. I realize that some pictures would be helpful, it will be a couple of weeks before I'm able to return to Douglas to take the pictures.

Welcome to the Forum, Ga.Player! That's sure an interesting find. I know diddlysquat about those old mills, but I'll sure be interested in following your progress. Is that an all steel mill, or did it have a lot of wooden parts? What sort of shape does it appear to be in?
You might want to contact member/sponsor Mike_P and order some RustReaper. I'll bet you're gonna need it! :D It seems kinda pricey at first, but a little goes a long way, so it is cheaper in the long run. :)
Hey there GaPlayer. I'm located down in Bainbridge. Welcome to the forum!
I'll look up my Corley sales lit and scan a pic for you. Might be a couple days though I'm in the middle of haying :) :)
welcome to the list from macon, ga
Hey and thanks for your responses, This is great. I'm glad to hear of others in my near area that are operating mills. I'd be more than grateful if I could see some that are setup and running. I am willing to help for a day to learn.

You don't have to spell to tote and stack boards ;D.
