    Smile buying equipment from US

    anyone have experience selling equipment to Canadians, or does anyone have experience buying from US - wondering about customs etc
    I have sap running in my veins, and have not made syrup for 30 years (uncle had 2500 taps). Once an addict always an addict. finally bought a property, and I am starting up this spring.
    I'm looking for a starter evaporator. may build a block arch, and buy pans???

    70 - 100 taps
    thanks

    There are many Canadain places to buy from. I have no idea where Varna is but it can't be far from at least one or two places.
    maybe 50 taps for 2011
    Finally ready to boil when I get enough sap
    I just might be crazy.( make that I know I am)
    Trees all tapped except the ones with 5 feet of snow.

    Another good dealer who stocks most of the Leader line is Dick Obrian
    aka Uncle Richards. He's just east of Hanover. He get's all the stuff brought up to him in Leader's own truck on regular intervals and it saves a lot on the shipping.
