    We've had a pleasant spring.... most days about 8-10* cooler than average.
    Plenty of sun.

    A little low on rain though. [img]/forums/images/icons/frown.gif[/img]

    We have just had another session with lots more rain. And better yet - more is forecast.

    Heck, many trees still don't have their leaves.

    The lastes version of " Egons Sawmill Mill " will soon be ready for testing. Perhaps tommorrow or late today.

    Egon, We too are experiencing rain. This morning if it continues till lunch at the current rate we could get as much as a quarter inch but more likely the "storm" total will be closer to a tenth of an inch.

    Turns out that we did not experience 100% crop failure of the hulled bermuda grass seed so this little spritz will help.

    Bring your prototype down here and test it on some eastern red cedar logs (AKA juniper... Juniperus virginiana)

    This is the stuff that the cedar bird houses and feeders are made of and the cedar chests and closet liners (and my sun room trim.)

    Egon, we have been getting the same weather systems as you. I think we had 14 straight days of rain, including three nor'easters in three days.
