Hello,

Does anyone have a *rough* estimate on how much rough-sawn wood one has
to put through these two pieces of machinery to get to the point where
you just break even on your machinery purchase, compared to purchasing
surfaced lumber at higher costs?

Zero.

Even if you buy s4s, you'll still need to flatten some of it,
straighten others, and change the thickness of still others.
