Thanks folks for the nice compliments!:)

Robin...Its HO scale...I think:D Kinda always had a little doubt about WS's accuracy:D but it will fit in ok:)
 
You did a really nice job, Vic ;)

Those little sawmills were (and still are) quite common here in the Ozarks. In fact, there's one in daily operation just a few miles from my place here at the Lake. They haul oak and hickory sawlogs in by truck and cut planks from them.

Hi Casey, Yep they're pretty common around here too. But I haven't seen a steam driven one in a long long time. Gas or diesel driven. In fact there's one for sale in the local paper today! Seems like rough cut pine lumber is all "the rage" around here right now and they cut a lot of red oak for furniture manufacturers.
