Double doors on entry side. Need to trim and install the hinges. The heat beat me out today. Have a great Independence Day weekend!

My old knees told me the roof is on!

New Woodmizer tool in the sawmill shed. Trim , battens and inside shelving and it will be finished. Then I'll strat the addition to cover the mill.

Thanks. I'd like to tackle some timber frame like yours someday when I have the time.
Also I had some slightly wavy pine with the 7 carbide. The blade still seemed sharp. I have about 50 hrs on the mill so I am going to check the drive belt tension.

Changed the oil and filter, tightened the belts and moved her to her new home today. Has 56 hours on it.

The fenders in their new home.

And a place for the blades.

Looks great. Did you dry the lumber first or put it up green?

Thanks. It was stacked and stickered for a few months. There is some shrinkage after it's up in the hot sun. I'll wait a few weeks to put on the battens.

Looks really nice!

If the blades are sharpened ones could you add a strip of wood to top of brackets to protect tips of teeth? What will you finish it with or will you leave it natural?

Look forward to your shed build.

Thanks. I like a ceder colored stain or Australian timber oil. The blades tips are o.k. on there.
