Me and the Dog got cabin fever, had to build a fire for an excuse to spend some time outside. Been having sub-zero lows for a while. Takes forever to warm up the shop, 38deg this morning. Merde!

Fire?
All I see is smoke:)

I've always heard that where there is smoke there is fire.

This is  The Hog Thickness Sander
Only 1 lam at a time but does a really good job

I looked at that one, but the byrnes was cheaper with motor

I like yours
does the motor bog down any?

Not lams but you get the idea. Take the H&L part off and put the paper right on the drum with spray adhesive and strap tape both ends. When you do this have to re adjust the pressure rollers. But the accuracy is much better. And has a bearing on each side so no give there. Only about a gazillion feet of wood thru this one.

Max, I have not bogged it down yet!  Not fed it anything over 3 inches wide. Takes a little practice since the bed is short. I saw a bench jointer converted to a lam grinder that was awesome.  Gives you the big flat table.

Supermax drum sander is next on my list

I have a Grizzly Baby drum sander also but I use my hog the most.

I think you will find that the one you have will do a lot

The only issue is max thickness. It will only do 1 5/16.  I really need one that could do 1 3/4".

I made a jig for my oscillating sander right now to do the thicker stuff.

Little bit of spalted buckeye.

Split some black locust billets yesterday

Will get pics tomorrow of carbon limbs for my personal bow.

Marcia and I are celebrating 44 years of marital bliss today. Hard to believe it's been 44 years and we've lived the lives we've wanted to and not what other expected us to live. It's been a fun ride so far and I expect many more years to come. 

Congratulations to you and your wife Pat
I can relate to the alternative lifestyle, good on you guy's for living your own lives

Another personal note, my Dad's B-day is today, he's 99!! (and still drives)

Congratulations to Pat and Marcia.
Flem, congratulations to your Dad, tell him happy Birthday from all of us.
My wife and I celebrated the big "50" back in November.

 Pat and Marcia congrats, that's is great. Wife and I are working on 29 years and loving our camp in the mountains.

Flem congrats to your Dad.....

Wish I still had my Dad around...

Congratulations to you and your spouse, Pat. 

Wow,  90 and still driving.  You come from tough stock, Flem.
