debunk - Nice going!! That is one sweet miniature sawmill you built.

Concerning the larger logs - I immediately thought of the Alaska Mill http://www.granberg.com/alaskan_mill.html But later thought that living in Georgia, There has to be a small sawmill somewhere nearby, that could handle a request from you.

If the mill is fixed, you'd only have the problem of moving the logs to it, and carrying back lumber.

Maybe you could find a mill that will come to you.

I took a look at the pictures before I commented. the end of the log on the bandsaw looked painted but the other 2 pictures of end grain looked natural.

decided I would rather comment and have you already know it, than keep silent and risk your good work being diminished.

And remember, there are plenty of people out here that had no idea the ends should be painted so when people comment, they are helping others (like me) who didn't know. Thanks iclark.

Never ever "keep silent". Tips are always welcome, and you can bet they will help someone!!!

I resemble that remark! I didn't know that either, so I learned as well!

I've had a few professors and cow-orkers who might disagree.

thanks, guys, for the kind words.
