Me too, Lynn!

But I've never sawn Red Pine with this much dead stuff between the bark and the wood!

Going to saw today, start out with no lube and see what happens!

Thanks again to all that provided input!

Well, we finished that sawjob today!

No lube, took a little bit of time 1/4 log, then the rollers worked fine.

Really had me pulling my hair out, and wanting to make all kinds of adjustments, but didn't!

Note to all:  If you know your mill is all aligned (by the book) and you start having issues, don't start making adjustments!

As I found out other things can affect the cut and performance, it could be a dull blade, feed speed, or as in my case it just seemed to be the lube mixed with the bug & rot dirt between the bark and the wood!

Thanks again for inputs!
