My New Band Mill Pics.
« on: December 26, 2008, 12:11:00 PM »
Hey guys, I finally learned how to resize and upload these images. See what you think . Man this new saw really moves. I dont think I will ever go back to manual. But then  as momma used to say, "Never say never"  :-\

Very Nice!  I like the fact your controls are stationary.  Lot less walking than I do with my WM.

Thanks Kirk. Yeah that's what I liked about it too. I finally sawed my first few logs on it yesterday. Black Walnut. That was great just standing there and watching the saw do all the work. Sure saved my back and legs.

Yep, Dan, look at all the shoe and boot leather you will be saving.  Nice looking mill, set up. 

Yes, all levers in one place, makes for a much easier operation and less physical effort.  Congrats on the new toy. ;)
