hello everyone tonight

well we have the mill running but for now we will stop the blade and talk a bit about the moving framework that supports the log

this framework is approx. 25 feet long and can accommodate logs 20 feet long and a maximum of 36" in diameter.

on the end of this frame that will be called the tail end is attached a permanent bunk--it never moves out of its position--it measures about 24" wide 10" thick and 48" long

In the centre of this block is placed a slot about 1.5" wide the full depth of the bunk and will penetrate the bunk about 7"

sorry have to go
