[@denisjl100]

yeah me too. i worked for an outfit called beaver lumber in canada. when they hired me it was to stack 2x4', 6, 8, 10 and 12. they came in varying lengths and had to be sorted into their own bins. they were piled in a shed and the bigger boards had to go to the second tier. we also had to pile plywood and trim wood. eddie's stuff is probably heavier and more awkward but i have a small idea of how hard he has to work.

Hello Mark and Eddie. Another enjoyable video this week. Sorry to keep pestering you with enquiries, but I am really interested in how your mill is running! This weeks question is about lubricating the machinery. The log carriage, log turner, loader and conveyor are in constant use when milling, so how often do you have to grease the wheels, track, pivot points and cables in order to maintain their smooth running? How long does it take to complete that maintenance? I agree that it would be good if you had two way communication with Eddie! Best wishes to both of you and your families! Take care and Stay safe! Stan.

There are relatively cheap ($35 per unit) communicators you can get that are license free. Business band might take a registration or (I forget the other band name, maybe PCS? It is for personal area communications.) But put them on the lowest power and nobody will ever hear you. Tiny antennas so it won't snag. Put it in your pocket. What would be nice is bluetooth on it for cordless earphones. So for less than $100, you can probably get set up.
