No, not really. I used to go to church camp in Ridgecrest. Sometimes when we go to the Grove Park Inn, we will drive back through Old Fort.
I wouldn't mind coming up sometime and watch you "swing" lumber. I've never seen one in person.

Poston,take him up on it. I went to a sawmill show,put on by Small Woodlots of Maine. It was raining and only about 20 showed up. It was about a 2 hour "class" really. They had a band saw,circular,and a swing mill. I spent more time talking to the swinger than the others. Never saw one before and never saw one cut. I was amazed by the way the blade flipped over and cut.

Hud-son has many models of mills, the number one reason is to sell the one needed to fit your needs. And I know that many just look at the price first. It is  a serious decision trying to compare Hobby Mills to production models, also stationary ones to mobile ones. I am sure that all manufacturers are doing their best to give their customers good dependable equipment. Hud-son has other models to compare "Apples to Apples" and "Oranges to Oranges"
