I'm really impressed with how much you accomplish in such a short time. Here is a picture of a mill that belonged to my wife's great uncle. Somewhere around 1910. The mills at that time were all steam powered and they were moved around to different woodlots as the logs were depleted. They always built a concrete foundation when they set up the mill.
