That sounds like a very interesting and fun
project John. Our antique engine club here picked up a old shingle mill 
that has a horizontal saw and a different carrage, all that was left of 
it was the irons and just some rotten wood. after a rewooding and new 
bolts it looked and worked like brand new at the show, belted up to an 
F20 it made shingles for three days. Ed
