Bribery? I don't go toward Branson for obvious reasons, LOL. Now if you were traveling through the area I might be able to pull something out of the oven if I know in time.

Branson....yuck!
I live an hour east of there and haven't been there in close to two years.... never for fun...

I'm a bit over an hour west. Haven't been there in years ever since I don't have to take the wife and kids to steal your dollar city.

I've got a Norwood HD36. Works great for what I do with it. I really like Ripper 37 bands. I also send my dull bands back to them to be sharpened. Works out to be about half the cost of a new band. It's not worth the time or investment in a grinder to sharpen them to me. I send them a box of 20 bands and 2-3 weeks later they are back.

I've been studying on how to make a 20' beam on a 17' mill. I think I got it.

It is doable.

Once upon a time we made a bunch of 24' beams on our 21' mill.

Just go as far as you can and then carefully cut the slab off with a chainsaw, turn it 90° and repeat. After it's squared up, slide it down and finish up the cuts with the mill.

You may have a bit of a bobble at the point where you cut it but not too much if'n you're careful.

Glenda and I made salsa this morning. Might as well set up the mill now.
