That would be a great place to tour, and see it in action. Sharpening the blade every two hours must get old.

Thanks Don very 8)
I bought an old tractor all dusty and worn,
knew nothing about her just the year she was born
I washed her and greased her and painted her red
Now she lives happily right here in my shed.

What an operation!!!

The Headrig blade has to be removed and shapened every two hours and the carborundum grinder must be dressed before sharpening each blade.... Wow :!: :!: :!:

Hey Don great tour. I remember a mill close to home when I was a kid that had a small pond for storing the logs. When I lived in the Adirondack mountains there was a large mill that kept water sprinkling on the logs 24 hours a day. They told me it was to keep insects from infesting the logs.
