Comments:

This mill was on craigslist at a collection of old construction and farm machinery. It was originally used in The Sarver lumber sawing facility in Alaska Mi., near Grand Rapids, Mi. When I received this mill it had sat outside in the weather for many years. Almost every moving part was rusted and stuck. After a few months of work I was able to put it back to work. It does a very nice job of cutting.
