stuff the 10-30 we need a 30-100 with air con cab and auto tailor.

I agree, aircond cab 2 ft above the 8 ft blade with full joystick control. Actually worked on a metal cutting lathe where you are sitting above the tooling in the 1 inch cut where you control it all with a joystick in the cab. took a 7 tonne forklift to drag out the tailstock after which several 1 foot by 1 inch spikes were fired into the floor to secure the tailstock turning an 8 meter round drum was being machined. Was F*&^ing cool, several hundred HP turning the piece between head and tail stock.

Dont worry about the 10 x 2's what about the flitch fire

Cheers

Would be remilling the flitches into 6 by 2's.

Would have to be something you could drive in, sit down, and carry out what you cut.

Thats a lot of boards!!!

Thanks for the Living Big Tree site BobL, quite a few years since I left Denmark, just east of the big Tingles, good to see them again.
