I have a Turner mill with a 42 foot track. Bought it in 1977 and redid all the woodwork. Used a Massey Harris 101 SR with a 6 cylinder 226 Continental engine for years. Plenty of power. Later picked up a Case LAE power unit with 403 cubic inches and ran it for years. Again, plenty of power. It sits unused under the shed now and as much as would like to, my shoulders tell me I am done with that kind of work. I always preferred a flat belt system so if something got hung up, the belt would slip off. Used homemade sorghum syrup for belt dressing. A trick I figured out later on was to put an auger flighting under the blade angleing out to a gear motor to remove sawdust. One bearing mounted under the blade. The auger pulled the dust out and made it's own trough in the dust as it went. Would never go back to a dust chain again. Richard in NW SC
