Sorry guys, I guess I should have done a search. Kinda curious that the other post came from Central IL too. I guess us flat landers are impressed with bikes in trees. ;)

Made me think, "What if Rip Van Winkle" fell asleep leaning against a tree?"   OUCH! :o

A couple of years ago a rifle turned up in pine board at the mill were I work. It got beat up pretty bad as it passed through the 12" double arbor.(not to mention some major damage to some saws & guides). The guy running the Divider spotted it, and kept it for a souvenier. I'll try to get some pictures to post here. it was in a 20" ponderosa pine log in near the heart wood, so it had been there for quite a while.
