I was sawing the customer's logs to his specifications and I am sure that most of this lumber will be sold.

Different sawyers have different markets that they cater to. Mine is almost exclusively portable sawing customer's logs at their location. In addition to local sawing, so far this year I have been to Drant, Lumberton, Greenville, Natchez and am now looking at a job in Gautier.

As with everything else, you gotta go to where the work is. Home Knothole Sawmill Brookhaven, Ms

 

Knothole >> Give me call when you come to Gautier, I buy your lunch. 228-219-6302 Steve

 

Will do Steve. I should know something next week. Of course the kicker on distant jobs is the necessary travel expense. Remove that "200 miles = $200", and a local sawyer is cheaper. Time will tell. Lynn

 

Good morning Mississippi

 

I'm up for it.

Haven't ever participated in a real time multiple participant chat. I know some sub organizations on FTE do it, but I don't know how to set it up or actually do so myself. If someone has the steps post it up & we'll do some practice runs.

Morning Dennis, thanx for stopping by.

 

Wish you'd been around a couple of months ago. My Wife's Mom had an OLD chinaberry tree cut out of her yard up in Lake Village AR & it was laying out next to her curb in huge chunks. The coloring & patterns in the grain were beautiful & made me wish I could have had it cut up for tabletops & other projects. ( I would have dragged it home & wherever it needed to be cut up gladly)

My late aunt & uncle had some cedar cut up into 12 X 1s a few years back here, south of Brandon. Nice stuff, unfortunately its going to hell in a leaky old chicken house.

 

Chinaberry is an imported species and is actually in the Mahogany family. It produces some very beautiful lumber.

I am starting to relax a bit with the new F250. It's longer wheelbase is taking some getting used to.

 

Good morning May and Mississippi ! Great start to the month for FTE
Have a great day, Thank You David

 

Happy Hump day Mississippi ! Everyone have a great day
