Title: I don't need advice on which mill to buy....
Post by: Delawhere Jack on December 21, 2013, 05:31:22 PM
I don't need to ask which brand of bands is better than the other.
I don't need to ask how much I should charge for milling.
I don't need help figuring out why we sometimes get a wavy cut.
I don't need to be reminded that even the best sawyers hit a clamp once in a while.
I don't need to figure out how to build a sharpener and a setter.

I've learned all of those things on the FF.

I just wanted to take a moment and mention...... I REALLY LOVE MILLING!  :)

And someday I MAY actually make a living at it.......... ::)

Well said, but I might have to ask a few of those questions from time to time.

I still have lots of ?   But right now I am missing milling boards as the mill is shut down for the winter.   Hopefully I will snowshoe back to tomorrow to visit it.

Glad you having fun :snowball:

Merry Christmas and a  :new_year:

There are still lots of folks like me who are still trying to figure out what questions to ask.  Thanks to you & all who offer encouragement, information, & wisdom based on your experience.
