    This is a custom chainsaw milling set-up using MkIV Granberg mill parts complete with a 74" GB Bar and Six Chains. As a package it is more than capable of milling logs up to 160cm in diameter. The mill itself utilises single piece bars instead of the jointed bars in the Granberg kits so as to give greater stiffness. The mill is also fitted with a winch which really reduces the stress on the operator. It is fitted with quick release upright clamps which really helps when making depth adjustments, particularly if you are operating the mill solo. It is in great overall condition, there is a bit of rust on the handle bolts but it is fully functional and ready to work. The bar is a GB 74" .404 bar with nose sprocket and is in good used condition. It is compatible with the large Stihl saws (MS880 etc) and Husqvarnas with an adapter (not included). There is a small drill hole where I was planning to add an auxillary oiler. There are six chains (196 link): One New Oregon 27R Hyperskip. One New Panther Hyperskip. Four Oregon Hyperskip chains with varying amounts of cutting tooth remaining, see the photos to get a better idea. The ones with just a little left are useful if you think you might come across metal rather than potentially waste a new chain. There are also a couple of bags of spare links and rivets. Overall this a great package with most of what you need to get going on milling some hefty logs. Delivery price is for mainland UK. Let me know if you want a quote for more remote locations. Sorry it is fairly pricey but long, heavy packages are a bit costly to pack and send. Collection is available from Llandeilo, Carmarthenshire. If you need a good beefy saw to go with this package have a look at my other listings for a well maintained and reasonably priced MS880 that is ideal for this setup. Thanks for looking.

  3. Obviously I haven't handled the Makita, but from what I can see, the specs are virtually identical to the MSA 300. That might make it attractive to folk like my son, who is on the 40v Makita platform for power tools.

    By all means. Forays should always be accommodated. A mate of mine made a Squirrel terrine once. That was pretty good. I caught and skinned them, but didn't have the patience for the somewhat tedious butchery, so he did that bit. I've an idea we needed 7 animals for it, as there's not much meat on them obviously, other than the back legs. I'd love it to be on sale in more butchers and even supermarkets. Even just as Squirrel Nuggets if the manual butchery is too big an ask.
  11. Morning, been wet through the night but dry and cold now. A few domestic. Jobs to get out the way today then packing up and heading north for the night to a BnB to save such a long drive in the morning, working in Bettyhill.

    Hmm.. the twists and turns in threads on this site never cease to entertain me.. Sime, is it feasible we might accommodate a brief foray on ' best Squirrel recipes ' here ? I understand there's a Butchers up in Darwin, that sells Squirrel pies. Never had the chance to try one, personally tho.

    We were given this by the previous owner of our new section of woodland. He'd bought it new but seems to have lost the bar, chain, strap and instructions but these will be easy to replace. Guessing if you're buying that you know something about these units, it's obviously the bare unit with no battery or charger included. It's literally never been used, as proved by the clean and empty oil tank. I can provide some proof to show the provenance and that it's not pinched. The box has seen better days but the unit itself is in perfect new condition. These are well over £500 new, but I realise you've got to source the bar/chain/strap and there's no warranty etc. How does £300 sound? Although it was a very generous gift there's no point in us keeping it, it's more of a gardening tool rather than forestry, we've already got 'proper' chainsaws and don't want to invest in the AR or AP battery system for a tool we'd hardly ever use (and all my power tools are Makita!) but this will be perfect for someone who's already running kit on those systems and wants to prune apple trees for Mrs Muggins. Collection from near Salisbury in Wiltshire, or we can presumably arrange some form of overly expensive shipping. Message on here to start with. Thanks

    I've also got these listed on ebay so feel free to buy them there. Basically almost new pair of Meindl Airstream GTX chainsaw boots we were given by the previous owner of our new section of woodland, but not the right size for me or my brother! He apparently wore them twice, there's some very light scuffing on the heels and toes (which looks worse in the photos than it actually is) and a tiny amount of mud on the soles. Apart from that and the fact that there's no box, you wouldn't know they weren't brand new. These are around £300 new, I'm happy to take £200 including UK mainland shipping. Or you can collect from near Salisbury in Wiltshire. Message on here to start with. Thanks
