Today's milling

[Rough Hewn]

So long story but not been on here much lately. Family issues etc but mostly good now.
Not been doing loads of Milling either but have converted a van into a camper using wood ive milled.
Anyway getting back into Milling lately professionally and as a hobby and also getting back into arbtalk.
So leafs off talk of panther miles on here lately. Ate they better than the granberg alaskans. Advantages, disadvantages?
Think I'll stick with the lucas for big slabs though rather than swinging a massive bar around like above.

Yes.
Horizon panther mills are that much better.
Everything has been upgraded,
Modernised, and redesigned.
It's genius, literally.
If you have used a granberg or chillaskan
and then use a panther mill you'll understand.
I couldn't go back now.

I only have a 24" granberg. Anything bigger gets the lucas on it. I do have a an old 40"? stihl alasksn mill but the tree would have to be really bad access for me to get that out.

Can't lift it on my own.
Strictly a two person job now.

Were you tempted to get a double ended bar if its a 2 person job anyways?

It's the expense of another 880.
One power head with the hyperskip chain is fine.
Really impressed by it.
Keeps the chain speed high.

You don't need two identical powerheads - I used to run a 660 & 440 in tandem successfully
