[Syrupmakers] excelsior mill

[bill gunter]

Richard, 
   
  I have a #4 Golden New Model Mull Mill.  The large roller is slick.  The 2 small rollers have good grooves.  The mill will not take more than 2 large stalks of cane at a time,  If you try to put more than that in the mill at one time, it will start to slip, causing the mill to shake and the cane will not go through the mill as it should.  That can and will cause the cast gears to break.
   
  I have a horz. power mill that I plan to go through and replace bearings as needed that has like new grooves.  I really like the Golden Mull Mill and will leave it installed for a back up after I start to use the power mill this fall.
   
  My advice would be to have the roller re-grooved as I intend to do with my Mull Mill, and not take a chance of breaking something that is next to imposable to replace.  
   
  Just my .02 cents worth.
