hats off for ingenuity but dunno how long the tyres will last? surely they'll get chewed to hell? [ame]

Yep, ingenious, I suppose you could use an old ride on mower as a donor, and if you have access to a welder etc, el cheapo mill

i think you'd be surprised at how well those tyres will last, he seems to have put a coating underneath the blade so i don't think it's on the rubber as such and the teeth are lined up with the tread so that they aren't cutting rubber. well designed or coincidence???

Check out my second home after arbtalk of couse, the American site forestry forum and its sawmilling section. Loads of home made mills using tyre band wheels, golf carts, ride on mowers old trucks, anytjing you can think of .- almost always does the job and plenty of support and help, so not as daft an idea as ya might have thought.

Good night y'all !!
