Hey, what state are you in? Is it a commercial project? Are you going to mill/grind for you and others? Is it going to be consumed? <br>The answer determines how you want to spend your time and money(as well as design improvements). Bringing everything back to original even w/ Meadow upgrades may not land you in a position to produce food grade products. If it's for just for fun and restoration then you end up with the same design problems the originals have. <br>
Restoring Meadows 1001 a 'sweet sixteen' recently. Major improvements (ability to keep it clean) put in. Whew! Just inspected last week for the 3rd time. Took samples. Had to witness the entire process. Now have to reg with the FDA. It's all good tho. Public Safety and all. <br>
Insurance is another subject.....not part of this forum I guess. But, I am having fun. 4h Grade County Heritage Days for the next two weeks!<br>Ron<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Nov 5, 2008 at 8:08 AM, Pylant, Bud T. <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:bud.pylant@centerpointenergy.com" target="_blank">bud.pylant@centerpointenergy.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<p>I recently purchase a Meadow 24" mill that needs
repair. It has been estimated to cost around $3000 to repair by meadows………does
anyone think it is worth repairing for this amount?</p>
