Evening Folks. New to the forum "After trolling for a month or so" and proud new owner of a WM LT10... Still learning the ropes and have already solved a few of the beginner problems by cruising through the forum. Currently working with a lot of Hemlock as we are clearing for our next pasture for the horses... Sorry not yarding horses... Arabians as the missus and I do cross country endurance riding... 30,50,100 mile rides. Also looking at doing hardwood slabs as a friend has a good supply of Maple (I call it rock maple) in the 18-24 inch class. Our only problem would be transport as we are 4 hours driving apart. Mainly looking at this as a hobby as I should be retiring from the Navy in another year or so and I'm building up my toy supply while I can. You'll have to forgive the beginner questions for awhile as I tend to ask first before I break stuff... :D

I'm lucky to have the WM dealer 30 min away. Big help in making the decision. It was uncanny. When they put my name into the computer to make me up a quote for the mill my name was already in their computer from 22 years ago. Guess I've been wishing for awhile...

Welcome to the Forum. Nice part of the world Nova Scotia...30 yrs ago had one of the best vacations there ever: near Pictou, at MacKenzies' Cabins right on the water. Just beautiful. All the best, Rob.
