Wood-Mizer will be here!
What equipment will WM be demonstrating?
Will you have an edger there?
I think we will have a LT15G and a LT50HDD47- WR or a LT40HDG28. Not made up our mind yet. Wife Lisa has the last call. :)
The Edger will be at Ag Progress days.
This show is small we will be the only equipment there. It is the home of the Founder of the US Forestry Service. Pretty Neat place.
