Sorry Milo..I guess I should have been more specific! Tenfingers is right, they are guys that specialize in moving and installing large, heavy pieces of equipment. The piece they installed for us was a huge CNC router, with two tool turrets, and a bed capable of handling a 10 foot sheet of plywood. I never collected on any of those oak beams..although I wanted to..I had dreams of building a post and beam shop out of them!

Durnik reminded me..A younger cousin of mine who is in the landscaping and tree removal business was telling me at Christmas he just struck a deal with a friend who owns a portable saw mill. He will garage the mill and provide a generator for it in turn he can use it for free. He was telling me he makes firewood out of tons of Hickory, Maple, Oak, Walnut, Cherry..I almost cried! He wants me to come by and talk to him about milling the good trees into lumber instead of firewood and selling it..I am just thinking how sweet it would be to have access to a mill and enough space to dry lumber. He said he even knows a guy with a kiln..

Listen Doughan…I am done with the political arguments..this is a wood working site and that’s all I care to discuss on here anymore.
