Hit 50,000 board feet milled last week - never thought I'd get there

Started with a beat up Alaskan mill in my backyard 3 years ago, and now I'm renting a Lucas mill to keep up with demand. Has anyone else been surprised by how fast the volume adds up once you get a routine going?

Ever notice how mastering anything just makes the numbers snowball like that?

@the_kevin I guess if you call it "mastering" something then sure, numbers can go up. But most people I know who are really good at stuff just do it without thinking about it. They're not sitting there watching a snowball get bigger. They're just trying to get through the day without messing up too bad. The numbers part is usually someone else keeping score while you're still figuring out where you put your keys.
