from chainsaw to bandsaw

[agrimog]

the biggest majority of my cutting is done on site( in the woods), so the sawdust is scattered around to degrade back to compost, some of it gets burned in my stove during the winter...a 5 gallon drum burns for about 12 hrs, and is hot enough to cook on, a bonus in my little shelter,  any boards slabs etc are generally cut for specifc jobs and buyers so theres never that much lying around, but as the current base of ops is 10 acres, plenty of space if I need it

well that's that then. spoke to globalrecycling, the distributers for Frontier and they don't do the trailer version so woodland mills for me

[agrimog]

Have you looked at the logosol band saws?
Bit more pricey but you get a quality machine.

Very heavy is that bit

was  a bit taken aback when i turned the page of the manual and it said to use a forklift to lift it on to the trailer!

taken the wheels off and set the frame on a pallet to get it as low as possible . will ask my neighbour tomorrow morning to help me lift it on. the Egyptians didn't have forklifts ffs

Not really that odd or surprising Id say? Same with my Logosol and I'll assume its the same as every other mill in this category? 

 

Of course you dont really need a Forklift, just find a few Slaves like the Egyptians had and you'll be fine......
