Experience
I have 28 years in the timber industry. I started out setting chokers behind a cat and worked my way up to running equipment, such as delimber and yarder. I purchased my first Wood-Mizer mill in 2015 and have recently upgraded to a more advanced mill with the intention of growing this into a full time business.
