[@HorstSchafstädt]

Tolle Sache !!! Schön das es noch Leute gibt die alte Maschinen noch bedienen können und sie zu schätzen wissen !!! Ich kann es auch noch,aber ich bin ja auch schon ein alter Mann 🥲🥲🥲👍👍👍!!!!

[@redbudfarm]

That planer can definitely make some chips, very impressive machinery!

[@kennethoblenesjr8493]

The shingle mill could be a real nail trimmer if you’re not careful. 👍🎅🏻

[@dwhallon21]

What , we don't need computers and servos and steppers to do this??? I love these old machines and the engineering behind them

[@survivingmaineona20acrefar77]

Me too I can't say it any better than you did

[@greenkeeper448]

It's somewhat fascinating how the shingle mill cants the block of cedar back and forth. Quite the mechanism. I take it there is a inch or so block left at the end? Probably the the shingle mill owner has plenty of kindling.

[@survivingmaineona20acrefar77]

The block that is left is about a inch and a half usually and like you said fire starters.

That is one very odd setup for a shingle machine. I never seen shingles trimmed like this before . I have seen a few 2-person shingle machines used for training new Sawyers.

Situational awareness is paramount else you could forfeit body parts. 😮

[@alexthedude]

Totally OSHA-approved.

[@carlgomm9699]

May I ask the age of the planer ??

[@survivingmaineona20acrefar77]

I am not sure maybe 1890

[@spudpud-T67]

He looks to be in his 40's.

[@boboneil6479]

No OSHA?

[@bill3641]

We were burdened with O.S.H.A. in 1970 . After which we no longer required common sense.............
