Title: Upstate NY
Post by: fluidpowerpro on January 29, 2023, 05:36:18 PM
I received an inquiry today from someone looking for 6 x 6 x 16' pine beams. Turns out they are located in upstate NY so I can't help them. If anyone here is interested, I will share your info with them.

I asked him what county but also went ahead and gave him your company name so maybe he will call you.

Well NY is a big state, and 90% of it is 'upstate'. Did you get a town, city, or something for a reference. I was thinking of a referral to one of our many members in the state. Experience in statistical probabilities tells me hw will likely be 3-4 hours from me. :D
 Put another way, I live upstate, but my cousin (also has a mill) is a bit over 4 hours north of me. ;D

No I didn't but I figured no harm if he contacts you and after you talk you determine he's too far away. Sorry if I shouldn't have done that.

Oh no, not anymore. On the east side it starts above lake George.
