Electric mill cord controll?

[jim blodgett]

Recently set up our new Linn Lumber electric bandsaw mill and I'd like to get the cord up off the slab.  Anyone know of a ready made overhead cord support system?

What have you seen?  How did you deal with this issue?

thanks.

Here is a link to a previous discussion: Festoon Ideas

The most common I have seen is to string a cable alongside of the mill and hang the cable from a few small pulleys. It's cheap, quick and works well. I have also seen tracks with little trolleys in them, but they cost more.
