Thread: Small softwood logs milling

I decided (my buddy Jeff talked me out of it) the job was not going to yield the quality material the owner was looking for. He would have received sapwood fence posts and large grain lumber. So the job has been canceled.

thanks Allan, I may have misunderstood him.

Steve is that Jeff from FF? if so, he would definitely know what he is talking about - nothing worse than busting ya hump to try and give the customer the best you can and just no be able to give them what they want 'cause of something you can't change like the quality of the logs.

As for the misunderstanding, it's all good, but he may have been thinking it'd work the way you stated, but for the record it would have been better doing it the way you suggested

The FF Jeff is a friend too, but he is too far away from me; the other Jeff lives across town and we can get together and help each other. I automated his setworks control on his B20 which eliminated the cord reel which always hampered his work, and he gave me some steel plate and large hinges and I made a sawdust scoop (1 yard size) for my forklift, as examples.

You are right to about providing the right service, better for everyone.
