Al,  I trust I'll get to see your rig over at Mike's Farm someday?

I don't know much about hammer mills as we never raised much livestock,
just a few hogs for annual slaughter for the family needs.  I've always 
thought
I'd like to have a small mill of some sort.

Hey Bigdog, I found an electronic copy of the manual online.  Really
