[QUOTE="redprospector, post: 615640, member: 5448"] Yeah, the fir definately cuts faster than pine. We have Douglas, and White Fir and either cut faster. I couldn't say for sure, since my mill is belt drive off a VW engine, but your drive motor may have some wear. I assume it is a gear motor, and with age they can get quite a bit of bypass. Your mill is pretty cool, and you did a lot of thinking on it. Wish I'd used something like you did for band wheels, would have saved a lot of money. Andy [/QUOTE]
