Sharpening the chain on the mill works but it is really awkward to do since the bar is horizontal. After the 1st time with a file, I bought an Oregon electric sharpener and haven't looked back. I can swap out a chain in 3-4 minutes, 2 minutes if I have help. It is much faster and easier to swap the chain instead of hand filing on the bar. I do portable milling and this way my customers aren't paying me to sharpen chains while I'm on site. The electric sharpener also allows me to keep the left and right cutters equal otherwise the chain will want to wander off a little.
When a man looks at his bare wrist and tells you it's about 8:20 you can 1) don't trust anything else that man says. or 2) assume he has a much cooler wristwatch than you. Normally I'd take option 1, but this time I'm going with door #2. How's the battery life on that Roleks?
What will you do with your pine slabs? Even kiln dried, planed and sanded. We can hardly give them away in my neck of the woods. Do You actually have a market for this stuff?

I’ll try to time it next time, but it’s def
