Nice looking job. Do you have something to stop the sawdust from building up under the wheels, or isn't it a problem? I had use of a sawmill for a while, and it did that. Not enough to stop it from rolling, but enough to feel as I pushed. I was going to build some kind of scraper or sweep, but the guy that lent it to me took it back.

the wheels that carry the load have a narrow flange that cuts thru the sawdust not perfect but works well. am allways looking for ways to improve and simplify my bandsaw mill.
one thing the mill has that the pictures doesnt show is my bevel sideing atchment . just a short lever pull changes the blade angle
i live and build by by the K I S S prinsiple.
