Hey Mike,
Who are you calling "Old War Horses"? Many of us were so pretty, we were used in Parades.... :D smiley_horserider
Thanks for your service.

found pics in your gallery. timberking has a scale and digital height/thickness as well. I am looking for a laser to project down at the leading edge of the blade. So I can tell when I am behind the log and can drop the head. If anyone has thoughts. Thanks BB

Hey doc send me a PM with your phone #. Ill call you.

OK Gents....

I purchased a sawmill. Would have loved an LT40 Super, but for a song, I got a 2011 LT35HD25G... Just got home with it. Going to start a new thread to attract counsel on where I go from here.

Odd, I came home and can't find my 35 anywhere.....fresh tracks leaving the mill house in a hurry from the looks of it. :D

Congratulations. That mill will take you a long way.
