Do we have any Whiskey drinkers watching?? In Texas, we have a whiskey brand that uses scrap leather and materials from boot makers and such to customize their whiskey tops. You get everything from snake skin, leather, ostrich, to fun little holiday ones… people have started keep their caps and starting a collection and some good friends of mine asked if I could make them a Texas shaped display

When I add arms to the back, I’ll also have to extend the material on the backside so it won’t want to tip over once it’s loaded down. And a slight design change to consider if you do that is instead of attaching the arms at a 90, to angle the arms up slightly so round material won’t roll away. This is where I’m looking to build a carport for the tractor, my old 72 Chevy, and this material rack. Don’t forget I have plans for this material rack for sale here.

The blade guards weren’t on, the gear box motor wasn’t mounted, and we were pulling the carriage with a rigging set up so we could be a safe distance from it. See, before Cody quickly installed a toggle switch to control the up and down of the saw head beam but was still having to turn on and off the mill inside the control box. I didn’t get footage of the lubrication system or winch installation apparently, but I’ll cut to some I got after we painted the mill The operator started by making a trench from the power pole to the mill, then stopped when he and backed up his saw to the bluff and made another trench in front of the mill towards his first trench.

The saw head beam is 5” wide, but of course this mounting plate is much wider so we first had to make two base plates on the saw head beam for the mounting plates to go. Then Matt joined Johnny and I on the saw head beam while JD finished up all the welding. JD started welding on additional parts that were already made while Johnny and I attached the third guide rail under the saw head beam. In fact, after getting the rail on and tighten down, Johnny and I moved inside to start fabricating the blade guides while Matt started assembling the acme rods which controls the rising and lowering of the saw head beam.
