Well @Old Greenhorn  I see this in addition to your equipment.  " I mill for fun and my mental health. "
1 out of 2 isn't bad, at least you are having fun.    :D :D :D
I think you could put all your equipment on that table and it would stand up!!!  Best regards!!!

Hey! I just said 'mental health", I didn't say "Good Mental health". AT any rate, my mental health is much better now than it has been in the past. Leaving the fire service and EMS helped. The mill helps too.

"I think you could put all your equipment on that table and it would stand up!!!"

 I could never put all my equipment on that table, but yes, it should hold up.

I work with wood, There is a rumor I might be a woodworker.

Most flat sawn oak will shrink 1/16" per inch of thickness, and 1/8" per inch of width.
These shrinkage measurements were what I was wondering about. smiley_clapping  Thank you so much. usflag

We sell a lot of deck boards , all green . What is very important , especially in hot , sunny weather , is to put some type of protective coating on the top of the deck . Fresh cut 2" oak , directly in the sun , will have severe checking , resulting in a lot of penetration for rain, and excellent places for future fungus growth.
I may need to come see you about a trailer that needs some boards!

Jax. is my "home town", well as much of one as a Navy brat can have. You're welcome to come down anytime , we do cut all decking to order. It seems every trailer is different.
Thirty plus years in the sawmill/millwork business. A sore back and arthritic fingers to prove it!
