    I guess it wasn’t meant to be. I refused to get into a bidding war today. So he sold the mill to someone else. Oh well wasn’t sure what i was going to do with it anyway.:(

    Hoard logs for milling instead of burning??? If you screw it up it can always be burned. Thats what buzz-saw says when he mills.

    I would have been questioning his motives when he started making excuses, I’ll be honest I’m thinking he did YOU a favor by selling it to someone else, wait and see.

    I was wondering the same thing. Fella should have been more than happy to demonstrate it.

    Then he might have fallen in love with it all over again, or that is what happened when he was getting it ready for show.

    Never worry about a deal not completed. Better than finding it a real lemon. Just wasn't to be. The fun is in the hunt anyway!

    Me to thats why i would not commit to buying it until I saw it in action actually cutting a log. I saw it run and go down the rails but it was empty. The guy that bought it never saw it run either.
