No, I knew they sold that one, but I thought they were going to make one up in Canada.  I just peeked at the website and it has a thing that says Call today about our new D&L 180 degree singblade mill. I don't know whats up.

Yes, Lindsay does have sumthin special up his sleeve :P It is a 180 swinger with a track system rather than end frames like the Ecosaw. Electric raise and lower from the operators station and a dogging deck ;) Gonna be sweet! It is in the "almost ready for release " stage as far as I know It would probably be ready now for sale, but Lindsay had the small matter of an order for 16 Ecosaws to South America get in the way , along with several Twin saws to his home area and the states :D If he dont come up for air on this post, ... I think he is up to his eyeballs in business blessings ;) Try givin them a call for more info.

Yep, he's a busy boy all right.  All of the above, plus he's involved in opening that new factory in Alabama with CGI.  They'll have that new planer/moulder on the market real soon, if not already. 8) 8) 8)

Who is CGI?   

If the new stuff equals their current lineup, it should be great...

Click on the D&L logo to the left.  Everything I know about it is on there, except about the new Alabama plant.  Lindsay posted about that on another thread.

Sorry i have been away from the forum. Head has been down and tail up for the past month. Workin 7 days a week 12-14 hours a day to keep up.
We have our D&L Swing blade mill just about finished. It will be this week that we maybe able to send some pics of the mill to the forum.
I have been working on this when i get the time and we are close now. The Mill will be really versatile and portable.
We are starting the plant in Alabama but  my partner Ty Wilkinson not CGI. We sell the CGI in canada.
The CGI is a 4 head planer moulder . We have a number of new models finishing this week that we will be able to send some info on.  Thanks for the post on that Dang
I will be leaving for the show in oregon ( Eugene Oregon Logging Conference feb 23,24 25 ) > We won't have the new D&L Swing there but we will have the Ecosaw , CGI planer moulder, and a T.S 30DTH there as well.
Look  forward to a great show and i hope any & all from the forum  can come by and introduce them selves to us.
