A wish to be more proactive with our produce from work and to be able to offer our sawmilling services to others we had, for some time, been considering the purchase of a mobile saw mill.

After having a spoken to David and Stephen on the wood-mizer stand at the Arb fair the other day the decision was made to purchase a LT40, this done and with a mill in our ownership we asked David, Used Sawmilling Machinery being our local rep, to supply us with an operator training day to include the checking over and setting up of the mill. Pictures show some of our 1st cuts:001_smile: my thanks to David for checking over and setting up of the mill and for his gentle teaching. Learn something new every day, thoroughly enjoyable I look forward to discovering what the next cut reveals

That looks a super mill, a lot more modern than mine. Have you sawn the back stop arms yet? They say you are not a proper Sawyer until you have ruined at least one blade on them.

I am sure you won't regret purchasing a Woodmizer.
