[Frank Windsor]

I live in Missouri. I don't need one yet but am trying to get an idea of where to get one. I will probably need one in about a month.

what about a sawmill near you there .

[Frank Windsor]

I'm really embarrassed to say that I didn't even think of that. That is why I like this group even when you don't even think of the obvious someone is there to remind you. Thanks David.

does anybody know of a good place for log furniture plans?

[Ken Darga]

A sawmill in Corvallis, OR, that can cut some good size slabs.

They'd make for some big table tops.

[Ken Darga]

The slabs can be cut into narrower beams & boards.

Cross cutting to length
