using old telephone logs to build a home?

besides blades dulling... any other complaints with it?

Hummm...
The blade cooling tank is a joke -- LHN took his off and uses Pam oil spray ( I use Olive oil spritzer )

the track is 4, 6 foot pieces that you bolt together -- so it needs to be welded or just replaced with a 20-30 ft section of 1/4" angle Iron.

The frame wobbles and really needs some support, but I haven't done it yet (I have made all my cuts wth the "stock version")

for the $$$ -- I think it was well worth it.
out of the box and up and working in about 6 hours.
My 20% off coupon paid for the shipping and taxes, so I was happy.

Please do get some pics up if you can JrDavis. I've been searching the net for mills. Seen some good ideas. May have to find a welder when we get closer to being able to stay on our new land.

Here is my Harbor Freight sawmill. I have installed it on a small harbor freight trailer and put jacks in the corners to stabilize it all. Work great for me. I had some trouble with the blade plunging when I started, but have now learned how to adjust that out. I cut all of my boards for the board & batten for the gable ends.
