Grey PVC pipe is sunlight resistant, that white PVC won’t last long in desert areas!
@amosunknown Yes, the Alaskan saw mill is an attachment that fits on any chain saw. It can be set at various demensions to cut 2×4’s, 2×6’s etc. It ismore intense work than a regular saw mill, but it gets the job done.
