That one must be a little different than our bandsaws, or the operator didnt know that our teeth are set in 3's one right one left and one straight.

Bibbyman,
Good to see you here. Is Mary still sawing anything?

Our log lot is mostly grassed over and sawdust pile is composting. I fired up the mill earlier this week to see if there was any usable spalted wood in what was a standing dead hard maple. It's the first time we've used it since last fall.

Mary has been too busy with her new Gehl skidsteer.

Nice video Bibby!

Good to see you still look in on us once in a while!

You go Mary!

Maybe she gets a new title like pro brush removal artist Mary?

Nice videos and it is real good to hear from youall.

We still talk about "Bibbying" a log. Drop in more often to see we're doing it right.

Glad to hear from you.

Well, of course you do!

Only one?

Really cool machine but I'm wondering why he didn't preserve the metal - paint or wax it?

My unit came with a filer.

Heya Bibbster!! Long time!!!

That is a nice looking Gehl skidsteer she has. I could use that on my claiming back the Old Pasture project.

Ooooo! Now that is cool. Who makes that? Would you want to sell it? Thank you.

I just watched that video on YT last night and wondered if anyone still used one. I watched another one of him rebuilding a handsaw tooth setter. Amazing stuff, I love the complicated mechanisms on these old machines.

I hope you'll post more often, I miss your wit and wisdom.
