    lol, look what I bought :-)

    This was one of the first cuts that came off of the log. Looks kind of like a fish, or maybe a duck, or maybe a dear head??? I think there's even a young squirrel's head in there. Anyhow, when it's dry and has been sanded, stained and finished it should look pretty nice hanging on the wall...

    lol, look what I bought :-)

    Yep, I did too until I got a sawmill. Who knew what was waiting inside all those logs! I think there's a few really nice tables in that log, probably several thousand dollars worth, and that's a whole lot better than firewood! :wink:

    Saved this old tree from the woodpile. You just never know what you're gonna find once you open them up! Would have been a crime to burn this up.

    Kubota RTV x1100c LED Light Bar

    Rusty, I had a 50" lightbar on my Jeep. Worked fine but lacked the ability to put light anywhere except straight in front of me. I grew tired of that in a hurry. On my 1100 I put on this light (several years ago) and it's still working just fine. Directional and much more useful than a...

    I Passed on the Powermatic planer and opted for a Woodmaster 718. It's not only a planer but has the ability to make molding as well. Has a 5 hp motor to run the planer/molding knives and another 1hp motor that powers two rollers that feed the material through the planer. New they are about...

    lol, look what I bought :-)

    I previously bought a WEN for $250.00. It's OK for small jobs but the knives don't hold up well and I just couldn't see myself dealing with it on a larger project. So yes, the commercial equipment is more expensive but it's better suited for the job. Sucks that equipment is soooo expensive...

    lol, look what I bought :-)

    Hi Lee! I was on the fence for awhile myself but one day I jumped down and said the heck with it! I have plans for a solar kiln that I will build as soon as I get some of the other "gotta-builds" out of the way. Gotta build a shed for the sawmill, gotta build storage racks for my wood, gotta...

    lol, look what I bought :-)

    Oh yeah, forgot to put up a video of the sawmill in action. It's all manual which requires a lot of input from the operator. But when I get rich and famous, I'll buy one with hydraulics. :-) http://youtu.be/LM04TeLXIp4

    lol, look what I bought :-)

    I've got a fixer-upper that I'm going to start working on. Actually, it was a reasonably nice rental up until recently when the animals that were living there disguised as "tenants" left. So as long as I am being forced to spend the time and money to repair the place I thought it might be a...

    Fire wood in?

    Ha, yeah it looks like a bunch but the dragon has a healthy appetite when it starts getting cold. Hungry little rascal. But wood is free around here. Well, except for the time it takes to harvest it, cut it, haul it, stack it, etc. (The term "free" is subjective, lol.) I don't mind...

    4 Annual Crossfire Lunch at Deer Springs

    Every year we host the annual Crossfire Lunch at Deer Springs. This started 5 years ago when Franc (a member of FF) came out to visit and brought some of his Crossfire Car Club buddies. Every year it has grown and this year we were expecting 45 cars and about 60 people. We got close with about...

    Fire wood in?

    Everyone got their firewood in? I've got to finish stacking what I have but I think we're ready. Was a mild winter last year, sure wouldn't mind seeing a replay! Note: Just looked at my picture and realized that for most people this wood looks to be a little large. We have an outdoor wood...
