Hi everybody, It's ALL fixin to burn. I have several stacks of red oak, cedar & pine lumber. Putting it all in a pile and adding gas this evening. I have had the final insult. I was offered $0.30BF for 500BF of very nice QS red oak and $0.40BF for 300BF of very nice cedar. I told the guy it would go up in flames before that happend. People seem to think that because I'm not Georgia Pacific, I give lumber away. I have a great paying job running a crane, I just thought I'd try something new, I did and it don't work. That being said I'll go to work Monday with a whole new out look on my job as a crane operator. I am going to be selling the sawmill, forklift and all support equipment, in the near future. I just don't think the market allows for a small timer like me & my little operation, here in Waxhaw NC. I really did think I could make a living with this mill, but I just can't seem to find any paying customers, they all want it for free (Whats up with that???). This has got to be the most insulting venture I have ever had any dealings with in all my 46 years on this planet. I recon I should have given this whole thing more thought. Oh well You'll have that from time to time. Glad my real job pays well enough for me to try these new toys. But the sawmill is NOW CLOSED.
