[starmac]

Are you doing the happy dance yet.

[dbroswoods]

Had mine since August they are a great machine. Congrats!!!

[highleadtimber16]

Wow I forgot how shiny mine used to be! Congratulations  8) I will suggest that you may want to buy the stainless steel sleeves that go over the backstops, to prevent rust marks on your cants. Have fun!

[Crossroads]

Congratulations! I picked mine up in October and have about 50 hours on it now. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. What ch engine did you get? I ended up with the 26hp.

[thecfarm]

WHY!!!!  If it comes up missing check a place in NH.   :D

[Farm29]

Holy smokes that looks nice I thought my used 96 lt40 looked good when I got her good work congrats

[samandothers]

Nice!

From Joe and Tyler in Albemarle? Got saw dust on it yet? The mill not the Harley!

[Ga Mtn Man]

Man that's nice!  Money well spent on those FAOs. 

[Lawg Dawg]

Nice!

Yep picked it up yesterday!  Smooth transition

[Bogue Chitto]

Happy sawing, and good luck with the mill.  Its a good one.

[Southside]

Congratulations - that sure is a good looking machine.  How long before you decide to shorten the backstops on this one?  :D

[tawilson]

Congrats. Got the.same mill in June and love it.
Correction, mine is a 35 hp. Doubt I would notice the difference.

[E-Tex]

I would like to see that.  Yours looks like a jet.

Such a beautiful sight at 6am, and by the way, I don't walk out the door of my house before daylight unless I got my PIECE! You never know who or what is hiding in the bushes  :D

[Resonator]

Don't want anyone to take a "highly valuable Black Walnut tree"?     

[Peter Drouin]

Nice setup you have .  8)

[wesdor]

Great looking rig and shed!  Congrats on a great purchase.

[Crossroads]

I'm guessing your going to like that extra HP. I had my choice of the 26 gas or the ?35 hp diesel. I was already nervous about the cash I was was spending on the new machine and I didn't know anything about the diesel being offered, so I went with the gas. I really like your shed too, I might build something similar this summer.

If it makes you nervous,  it must be areally awesome purchase...what I have come to realize.  I don't know much about the diesels, but just looking at them at the sales center, I'd say they are heavy duty!

[Crossroads]

Lol, yeah, so far business has picked up and calmed my nerves. Your right though, I have no regrets...

Nice looking mill. Them wides give me the envy. I could use that extra 6 inches every day it seems. That motor you chose is a good one. We used the same motor on my sons Peterson WPF10 after the 24 horse honda took the dirt nap. That mill cut several million feet over the years and wore out the mill. Its still running strong.

[Darrel]

Congratulations on the new mill.  Running that mill will be your favorite activity. I know that my favorite outdoor activity is sawing logs on my LT40.  Which reminds me. I have to go set some teeth and sharpen some blades so I can get back outdoors.

There - you spelled it wrong!

Got my poor man laser setup. ..awesome to be able to"see" like that. ..what a difference 

[Southside]

Holy Star Wars Batman.  What sort of a set up are you using there?  That looks awesome. 

[Kbeitz]

Lets see the projector....

[Lawg Dawg]

Lets see the projector....

I do it tomorrow

I don't even know,  laser beam is all I can remember  :D

[Lawg Dawg]

Kinda generic off brand laser I found online,  think it came from Canada.  But it sure works sweet!

[Dave Shepard]

Too bad the WM laser isn't green. It would come in handy on the long logs..

(My apologies to Norman Blake and Tony Rice.)                 

[Crossroads]

Dang! You just spent some money for me with that laser. I've thought there might be some value in having one, but to see it..... hopefully you can share some details on what you used

[Lawg Dawg]

WOW!  Is that a song?





This is the area between the shed and the Barn....this is where I need more roof :new_year:

[Resonator]

Yes it is "Green Light On The Southern" written by Norman Blake (Bluegrass Music).
(Its supposed to be "railroad line" not "yellow pine").     

[John S]

I am also interested in your laser, I hope you can find where you purchased it and let us know.

[Lawg Dawg]

The Beast is ready for its Feeding :D

40 years old with a brand new mill....roof already....nice roof....logs already...nice and strait......willingly up before the sun....... the world is your oyster right now....

[Lawg Dawg]

There's that laser setup



 

[Magicman]

Need a few more pictures of the mounting, etc.

[Lawg Dawg]

Are you doing the happy dance yet.

5 days now 8)

[Lawg Dawg]

I love being able to tail my own lumber while the saw is a sawin', but may need that dragback soon.   8) 8)  anyone ever built there own dragback for a 40?



 

[WLC]

While mine is just an LT28, I can see the value of that laser.  Mind sharing some more pics and how its mounted etc.  Could save some time and lumber over the course of a day sawing.

[PA_Walnut]

Laser looks awesome! I checked into it, but they said that even the green is questionable unless you're indoors (under roof) since may not see it in sunlight.

Question about shed: why did you do wood decking instead of on a slab? Curious how you made it for supporting all the weight/use.

[Lawg Dawg]

 Better shot of that "LASER BEAM" :D ;D 8)



 

[tmbrcruiser]

Congrats!!!!   That is a great laser. Also what is the power source to run the laser? Please post the name or web site.

A real blade saver  8)



 

[Southside]

Do you even have to run the saw with that laser or does that thing just burn through the wood?   :D :D

[Magicman]

That is awesome! 

If I sawed under a shed instead of outside all of the time I would have one of those, but I would still love to see how bright that 20 mW unit is.  I would not feel comfortable spending $150 on a maybe.   ;D

[Sixacresand]

Do the lasers make an alarm go off, prevent forward movement, etc?

[Lawg Dawg]

:D yep, it just burns it right offa thar

It works good under my shed early in the morning and late in the evening. ..when your eyes aren't working so great.  But you can still see it midday when you trying to figure out what number you left off on.  I'm thinking about some drop cloths for a little more shade. It wouldn't be good out in the open, unless it was very cloudy :-\

[Magicman]

OK thanks.  The only cloudy day that I ever have is "yesterday".   Same day that the fish were biting.   :

[dustintheblood]

Just hit order for one....

I have a 50mW red on my mill right now(with too narrrow a fan angle). Im under a roof  and the sun shines in from the opposite side. Can see it always. Im going to get a 50mw green and put a spring loaded switch on it so the only time it lights is when I need it. It got me once in the right eye. Didnt feel good at all.

[Lawg Dawg]

I think I need a board return 16" wide

Is your laser 12v? The one I bought is plugs into 110v and runs off of 5v 1A. For some reason I thought it had a 12v adapter when I ordered it oops. So, I bought a 400 watt inverter as well as a momentary switch, so I don't forget and leave it on. Hopefully I'll get a break in the weather tomorrow and hook it up.

Yep, it runs off 110, but I'm stationary and have electric service where it's parked.  I just ran a drop cord down the dust collection hose.

Okay thank you!
