I took possession of my LT 35 yesterday.  I was told 22-23 weeks back in November when I ordered it.  It took 20 weeks for it to arrive.  Cut up my first 5 logs today.  Haven't a clue as to what I'm doing yet, but I had a great time doing it.

What are other bandmill builders quoting for time?  

I checked on line with a circle mill builder, they indicate 2 weeks to turn a mill

I hope some of you are sitting down, because I also ordered a Bandmill. I placed an order on March 15th, and was told that the normal lead time is 26 weeks. I was able to move that up a little due to the fact that they had already placed an order for 3 different models to replace inventory. I don't want to get my hopes up, but I'm expecting to pick it up 1st/ 2nd week of August. That's just shy of 21 weeks. I will reserve discussing the Manufacturer, due them not being a Sponsor here, and the fact that I lost my confidence in the integrity of the Dealer I'm engaged with.

I figure this is a decent place to make my first post.  I ordered a LX25 on 3/3 and currently my completion date is 7/7.  I was told 18 weeks on the LX55 but if the 7/7 date holds it will be closer to 13 or 14 weeks.
