Can't view it for some reason

Thanks for letting me know. Something about it being a Facebook embedded video, I guess. I found it again on Youtube which should be a bit more reliable!

Wicked, wish they had a Vermont division.

It would be great if more enterprising people like these two saw the opportunity and honed the craft. No reason why others couldn't do the same thing.

We are working on a very similar goal/idea.

Awesome to see some one doing it, to boot in that style and capacity!

We just closed on a property to carry this out. Industrial park, 3 acres 8,000 square foot building. 4,000 square feet of galvanized drive in coolers (5 total) one will be the kiln, another a resaw/wood working area and of course the largest a climate controlled gallery. Been stock piling logs for the last few years. We've meet so any people in the last few years who are helping make it happen. We have an amazing welder who is moving in the next few days. Hoping to do tree work for fun in the future. It is fun, but the money aspect pulls from the love aspect right now.

Be careful what you dream for...might just come true.
