This my first post and a short introduction.  I've been an owner/sawyer since January, 2002.  I certainly am not an expert at anything, but I do have a little experience.  I own a '98 WM SH which now has over 5K hours on the second engine.  I only "travel" with the mill and generally cut only 2-3 days a week.

I've been "lurking" on here for many years, so thanks to you for the tips that I've learned from you... :D

I'll work on my DanG profile as I get the "hang" of this forum.  (They all seem to be a little different.)

Welcome to the Forestry Forum!

Looking forward to hearing more about what you do with your  mill.

Oh yeah, I was supposed to mention that we like pictures and it ain't really that hard to do on here...

I knew I would be "bumped" about pictures.   ;D   Picture posting is different on different forums.  I'll figure this one out and post some.  Thanks for the welcome.....

Yup, they are mine.  I guess I should have said that I try not to work but 2-3 days a week.  I usually don't work Saturdays, but to meet customer's needs (like this) one, I'm going to have to do it.  Some of my jobs, like yesterday, are only 1/2 day.  I'm now off for 2 days until Friday.  I do not turn down any jobs.  If it is 300 BF, I cut it.  After they see the product, next time, it will be larger.  75% of my customers are repeat.  My largest single cut was 32,716 BF.

I've not had a "slowdown" of work during this "downturn"..... good   ;D  and bad   :(

And, thanks for the welcome, Bibbyman.....and Mary.
