Amish using trucks? I thought they were all about using old fashioned non-motorized stuff...
Mill_Heat said:Found a new supplier for wood. This Amish mill down the road from me makes 6"x8" and 8"x8" beams. So the scraps they have are
Pieces that range from 8" to 18" long. The best part is its Oak and only $5 a truck load.
+1 seems to be some confusion about that, I knew people leaving the logs set for years before they were going to have it milled, talked to a guy who had a saw mill and he said no way you cut it green and then dry it.nrford said:News for you that is aspen not oak, that's why it is $5. Mills do not season wood before sawing. It is green ,the fresher the better. Most woods are fine in storage over the cold months, once summer hits, wood spoils very fast, esp. the Maples,aspens,beech, and hickory. The warm weather starts decay which stains the wood seriously degrading it.
