I would love to build a saw mill sometime.  If I do that I'll be using this trailer a lot.

I had two buddies that saw logs on their home built mills.
Wish you could tap their brains but one past and the other
is 80 and hates computers. I still have many of the oak, cedar and maple log
timbers they sawed for me.  I sawed the redwood in California and trucked it back to VA
The spalted maple tree fell on my X's mom's house so I slabbed some up.
Did both with a chain saw.  )W( )W( )-w(

Good use of redneck ingenuity there Clint!
Now if I could just find some Osage like that in my neck of the woods.  I've lived in poplar bluff mo for a year now and have yet to see one Osage tree.  Lots of hackberry though.

Eric Krewson:
I have done a lot of chainsaw slabbing trying to get flintlock stock material, even thought of buying a chainsaw mill but that would necessitate my buying a much larger saw than my stihl 029.

All the logs I slabbed had hidden flaws that canceled out the prospect of getting good stock material. I got a few marginal ones.

Stoner:
Don't know how I missed this thread. GREAT JOB !!! John
