Well, I have the 36" Granberg mill, and I found a log I couldn't get it around, so I figured that a 56"er was in order. I'll be running a 60" bar, but once I get the 56" rails, do any of you think I need to get an extra cast aluminum support to use in the middle, or would I be ok with just the two on the ends. Yea, the 60 bar and 3120 are heavy, but would I be better off with an additional support in the middle to connect the rails and round rod to make it less flexible? Have any of you added one with a measure of improvement, or not and wished you did? I'm already planning on adding an extra short section of rail between the long rails so that I'm sure I will have support at the beginning and end of the cut even if the 2x12 across the top of the log doesn't line up with the one middle rail at both ends.
As always, thanks in advance to the collective wisdom of AS.
Oh, and if any of you in SE Wisconsin have any monster logs to slab... lets chat.
