Damn Sands- that is sweet! Hey if your gonna sell on of the other machines- let us know! I have a person here that wants one real bad (ok it is me!) I'm thinking You should probably break in the new wheels before the move- Like one last grind in the old place! Hope the back holds out for ya! Congrates

I can't tell if thats some Gneiss Schist, or that Schist is Gneiss. All I know is don't take it for Granite

Hey Sands!

Congratulations ... I know I am way behind ... heck you are probably making some spectacular cabs with that machine by now, as you have always cut some beauties!

I thought you might want to swap machines?

Mine has cut close to 10,000 cabs and I have broke it in really well ... if you want I will trade you even-steven and then I can break your in too.

How does that sound?

Yea ... I thought so!

Enjoy,

John
