    A lot of great pics definitive dave . I don't know what the hole is for in that bar if it where a longer bar I'd say a handle.

    Sorry. Only the band saw.

    I was walking around taking stills when everyone went down to the old mill so I was a few minutes behind. When I got there I took a few stills of that. The belt broke before I got any video.

    I can load 500MB a week at Vimeo. I have 130MB left to use this week. I have 4 clips of the mill running the poplar and walnut that come to 350MB so I'll load those Sunday and post them.

    Here is a random video that I had room for. The first minute or so is just panning around the area.

    I bet, nothing else like the sound of those old 2 stroke diesels BWAAAAAAAAAH!!!...some scary crap though if you've ever had one try to "run away" on you. Fortunately the only 1 or 2 that have ever tried it on me had the emergency intake blocking door thingy (don't wanna get too technical on y'alls :rofl: :lol:)

    It does make some noise. I have rebuilt numerous Detroits and have fixed a lot of blown up ones just by resetting the emergency flap that had been used to shut them off by mistake. I check that the flap on this ones works periodically.

    And he had some "tooth" issues with the blade, so cwn877 was "taking it slow"!!!

    That old Mill is amazing! Kudos to the whole family for putting up the demonstration!!

    I just realized I haven't seen any pics of Jon1270s saws, he had a really nice echo twin and a MS200 rear handle and some other fun stuff and towards the end he ran Joe's 075 in the big log like a pro.
    He had another saw laying there that I wanted to look up and read about but my feeble brain is overloaded and I cant remember what it was :(
