Foam at the Sawmill

The foam used in our carbon fiber component molds comes in very large pieces, so Red enlisted the help of an Amish neighbor, Joshua, and his sawmill to cut the foam down to size.

After the work was done, Red inquired about buying the mill. Joshua mentioned swapping it for Red's 090 Stihl saws. No deal. Joshua is quite cool.
