What happened to the forum?

It was gone for a few days. Was starting to get grumpy and twitchy. Things are getting better now. Thank you for bringing it back.

VA-Sawyer,

Do you by chance run a sawmill?

I have a couple mods I want to fabricate up for mine. Would love to add hydraulics if possible, but I also have an idea to make a log turner as I saw by myself and manipulating the logs is my biggest hurdle.

Any knowledge in that area?

Alan

I was hoping to hear from one of the mods by now. I figured it would be an interesting story.

Mods are probably in the dark with the rest of us

Yes, totally in the dark. I talked to the original band or cohorts and they didn't know what. It even worked for some. I then messaged Joey Collier with a screen shot of the browser screen I was seeing and now it works. Do maybe he did something. Back on track now.

Mick.

Did you try turning it off then back on ? !!!! site was unavailable here in UK for about 3days - I initially assumed it was a glitch with the VPN location as it does sometimes do it - I even tried it with my real IP address which kinda goes against the grain but it made no odds - very glad site is back up now whatever caused it.
