I'll bring my cs mill and try to get there early to make some cants.


I would really like to see a chainsaw mill in action. So yes please bring this:D Ohh and I hope to be there as well.

Is there an address of this local? It here it is not far from Dike a little birdy told me so. I don't want to to read through all this thread to find it:bang:

I guess I am going to have to get my oiling problem on the SP125 figured out quickly as that is really the only thing I have to bring as at the last GTG it was in a box:laugh:

It manaully oils just not auto and I have yet to take it apart:msp_mad:
 
cedar logs

If I bring some cedar logs can I get someone to cut them up into planks or manageable pieces via a mill or freehand? I'm looking to make some canoe paddles. I have a couple of logs 12-16in dia and hopefully they both are close to 7ft for use. For payback I could be someones saw b#$%h for the day :msp_ohmy: I have no saws at the moment :msp_thumbdn: Will there be a raffle? I have some items I could donate.

Sure we could slab them while I'm at it.
 
Planned on milling a Walnut over the weekend. I'm sure in between Shaun and I it could be done.

Well that sucks! You won't go home without a saw.....
 
Maybe we can have a mill-off. Warning, I'm running a ported 394xp on a 32" low-pro setup. It's quick for a CS mill. What are you running?

28" on a Craftsman 5.2. Don't get to confident :D
 
Are you sure?

Don't have the extra cash for more then one hobby. Canoes are my favorite with chainsaws second. A farmer to the NW of me has a cedar log that he said I could have. When I told him what I was going to make from the cedar he wanted to see the finished product. It might be a few years or 5 before I get them done. Thanks for the help everyone. Looks like I'm coming on the 8th.

Geez, what did he do to you?

Hey wait a minute Mitch........ain't nuttin' wrong with an XL-12. It's not like he's giving him a Homelite 150 or a mini-mac. Those are what you give as punnishment.:D

Post video of the Poulman 5.2 VS Husky 394XP mill-off afterwards.:cheers:
