Hey zopi I didn't know that higher octane would run cooler good info thanks!! I think I will use a little higher just to be safe. rayvil01 Awesome I would love to be out this weekend but I gotta wait to order the rest of my stuff Dec. is a killer we have presents to buy for 3 birthdays and then Christmas I gotta get rid of a guitar to fund this hobby but I can't wait till it all comes together!! Have a beer for me too!! I'm sure it goes down better after some milling maybe just not before HA! My wife is trying to be understanding about all this she has a pretty good concept of what I want to do but I think most people just think why wouldn't you just go put that money towards wood at the lumberyard or seems like alot of work for a few peices of wood but what they don't consider is some of the wood you can mill yourself is not even available to buy at the lumberyard and the amount you can mill would cost a small fortune to buy, then theirs also the sentimental aspect of being able to say this tree was from the woods or yard and now its a table that may be able to be passed down for years to come in your family or to freinds, to me thats priceless in a world of oh just throw it away and new one only costs X amount of dollars not enough heirlooms around anymore I am hoping to change that in our family of course I am still trying to convince my with into a timberframe dinner table and bedset?!!? Well see!! Can't wait for the pics!! Happy New Year!
