Thank you Busy Beaver and Fishpharmer......
Now that I have the pic. loading thing down I will take more photos to post in a day or two.
Hey Riverswamp nice pics, Thanks & play safe...
Dave
Excellent setup...would like to see a pic of your log deck. Ditto on the scenery. When we were visiting my sister a few years ago in Mableton GA, the first thing I noticed was that they cut only enough trees out of the woods to put in roads and houses and that was it.
Chet
Nice setup River but where is your snow?
Gday

5quarter.... I am just getting this pic thing figured out...Log deck is 2 steel beams....will try to get pics tonight.
r.man.....NO snow here !!! (don't know if I could stand it!!
Meadows miller....Thanks for the compliment....There really is some pretty country here to see (if ya don't mind traveling on dirt roads)
Gday
River I dont mind dirt roads myself i can usually sit on about 45 to 60 mph on most of the ones down here whether that be in a ute or a truck if theres heavy corrigations and pot holes if they have not been graded in a while you have to back off a little you do have to watch yourself though if there might be someone coming the other doing the same thing moreso when your driving trucks Mate :o ;) :D :D :D ;D ;D 8)

Looking pretty good for a red neck sawmill. :D
Riverswamp sawyer,
I thought so! I was going to do the same thing but it didn't work out. I was on a house demo and was getting 2 15' I beams that I had planned to use for the log deck, but the excavator managed to twist one up pretty good so I just had the one...what a shame! I went with my second choice instead...3 17' power line poles. I'm going to be putting up some cover over the mill this spring not unlike what you have. What are the dimensions? Size of rafters? Purlins? Thanks.
Chet
lookin good mate.
cris - dont have to worrie about the people coming the other way when your in a truck, thats there problem.
Carl I should have said when your both in trucks some tracks just aint wide enough Mate ;) :D :D :D
RiverSwamp,
Looking very fine! Holler if you get over my way.
Don't offer that unless you mean it Danny. I did and he showed up before I was ready. :D
Nothin like gettin started at the crack of dawn.........eh Jake?? ;D 8)
Well if you can get the wife to not run over water lines the day before with the tractor then you can get the mill running sooner.
I hate it when that happens :).
That is a very neat and well thought out operation. 8)
