Ah! the sweet smell of success! To add to the previous invites to visit when next in NS, bring the saw.
Good job Greg.

Feed stock for the cabinet shop for sure. Have a huge source of old logs at the bottom of a lake here. My aunts dad had a sawmill there for decades, and another mill there since before the turn of the century. Now I get to spend the summer diving and sawing. But first I have some Hemlock I want to cut to timber frame a blacksmith / foundry.
The cabinet shop is whats been slowing down progress on the mill. Here's part of a set of cabinets I'm building for someone from Elm. Should be installing these Saturday.
