    Phones are picky with pictures. For them to upload properly you need to have the phone in horizontal mode with the home button to the right when taking the picture. Most smart phones are oriented this way. That is how the human eye sees so they set pictures up that way.

    guys, have any of you seen this one yet? wondering if they are worth looking into. I like the fact that they are a bandmill.......smaller kerf and probably a bit faster cutting?

    The narrow kerf makes much less waste. A pile of chips and noodles isn't worth much. The yield from a bandsaw operation has to be better than a chainsaw.
