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.
THEN we will be on the road touring through the US to hopefully meet a lot of you, and give you a go on our mills if you haven’t already had
the chance.
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!

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.
