TnLogger: The LT10 is a great little mill other than needing a little more horse power. I guess the most challaging part was putting it together. I got the LT10 with one bed extension and mounted it on 4x6 treated rails. I think it's a great mill to start of with for small home projects I think I learned a lot while pushing that saw head down the track. I cut about 8000bf of pine 1x12's and various other 2x's befor I decided to upgrade. My son bought the LT10 from me but now has it up for sale so he can buy a big planner.

Thecfarm: I bought the TK1600 with the hyd loader and manual turner ( all the options they ofered). The manual chain turner works great but you realy need acouple of hands with peavys to turn a larger log. With a little southern engineering I added a hyd cyl and a hyd motor to the turner so now all I do is pull a leaver to turn the log.
All in all I think it's a great little mill and has cut everything I've put on it.
