Been using my OC-4 to plow snow. <!-- s:? --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_confused.gif" alt=":?" title="Confused" /><!-- s:? -->  Had our share of it this year. cant complain too much. We didn't get hit as hard as some. Key switch started acting up on the thing. Last time I used it I had to use a propane torch to thaw it out enough to start it and then heat it with a torch to thaw it out enough to shut the crawler off. Replaced it yesterday. Thermostat isn't working right either. Got one of those on order from Zimmerman's. -25 two days ago. Supposed to be 50 and raining tomorrow. Mid-30's today. Sheesh!

What type of sawmill do you use and how big? Most guys use the Woodmizer 40 inch band mills around here. Some do an accurate job and some don't. Mostly depends on how diligent they are about keeping a sharp blade on the mill and not trying to set a world recod for feet per hour.
