A little over a year ago my hunting group decided to quit making drives. We used to sit morning and evening and make drives the rest of the day. So some dead trees in yard got cut and turned into boards.
Then I had to get wood around the house. So I grabbed my trusty LUMBER WAGON.
This is the first one that got built just in time to try last season.
My land owner had wood for me to pick up this winter and spring
This is what it looked like toward the end of May
A couple milling pictures
Half way threw we found out some logs needed to be split to fit on mill.
Had a couple logs that were too short to make any wood we needed. so we made them into benches
Some bark inclusion that loks pretty neat
We are finaly done slabbing the logs
The yield
I am thinking it will be about 12 stands worth. Now I need to make riser brackets for the legs. I also need to make a clamping system to clamp slabs so I can make boards with my mill.
