The demonstration for the evening was done by John Bathrick |
John brought his portable saw mill to Mike's farm for the demo |

John's rig is pretty good sized and is complete with hydraulic lift and rotate |
It'll handle pretty good sized logs with very little manhandling required |
While there is still some heavy lifting, one man can operate it easily |
Some of the members look on as John shows the capabilities of the equipment |

Some of Mike's cherry cut previously and stickered for air drying |
After a great demo, John answers the questions that couldn't be heard over the engine |
