June, 2006
Hi
We have an exciting couple of months ahead of us
here at Petersons. We have just released the new EZ Dogs, and our mystery tool will be fully revealed later this month.
We are giving ‘Cutting Comments’ a
new look next month, giving the website a new look the month after, and fingers crossed, releasing our online store the month after
that.
Peterson Points and the Photo Gallery are both
getting updated, and we have a few other surprises in store, all in an effort to serve you better.
Phew! I guess we had better get
started.
If you have any suggestions, feedback, comments, or stories, we
always love hearing from you so send em’
through.
Happy Milling
From the team at Petersons.

PRODUCT RELEASE
EZ Dogs
The latest creation from Jake Peterson will be proudly
released at the NZ National Fieldays this month. EZ Dogs are a huge improvement on the ol’ Log Dogs as they are smaller, stronger, more
versatile, and cheaper to freight!
Find out more.
COMPETITION WINNERS
Thanks for the great response to our May competition, trying
to guess the latest release from Peterson’s.
Congratulations go to Ken Ormsby in New Zealand for getting the
closest guess. We also decided to give a runner up prize to Marcel in Ohio, and a special mention to Don from Illinois, for some very
creative answers.
Most got the general gist of what was happening in the picture,
but you were thinking on too small a scale. Think much bigger! A lot of you got the release date correct – NZ Fieldays in a couple of weeks.
If the patent lawyer gets his act into gear we will hopefully be able to give you a sneak preview before then, but otherwise it will be released at
the show starting on the 14th of June.
Ken and Marcel, you should receive a package from us soon. Congratulations.
PHOTO OF THE MONTH
"She's a beauty"
Mark and Tammy Allen just recently sent in this fantastic photo of a HUGE
tulip poplar log that they have just acquired. I think it will take a few days of solid milling before they get through this one!
See the photo.
BRING A BUDDY
The countdown is on for the Fieldays competition
Fieldays are less than two weeks away and it's going to be a huge show for Peterson's. You'll see the new EZ Dogs in action, as well as
our range of portable sawmills - all available for testing by you. Don't miss out on your chance to also win the latest from Peterson's -
a woodworking tool worth $3,900. Grab your mates, get your tickets, and come to see us at G109-G111. The more buddies you bring, the more chances you
have in the draw to win! If you would like to know more about the competition or show, email Darnielle.
SECONDHAND MILL AVAILABLE
Richard West is selling his WPF mill so if you are in the secondhand market, this is a great
opportunity for you.
8" 20hp WPF large frame with Hi/Lo tracks and spares. It's 8 years old now, but still in good condition.
Give Richard a call for more information - 06 765 5722.
GAME OF THE MONTH
We’ve got a fun game for you this month to keep you
entertained.
The challenge – don’t touch the black outline,
or the moving blue boxes. The office record at Peterson’s so far is 33.607 seconds, so if you beat it, let us know!
