Corded electric chainsaw for milling

[Con]

Are there any corded electric chainsaws capable of milling up to 20" planks. Would ripping chains and bars be an issue sourcing?

Reason I'm asking. I occasionally take a stem from a job back to the yard and would like to reduce noise levels milling it.

Not a chance unless you go to 3 phase.

No. For a 20 inch plank, you need approx a 28 inch bar (to accommodate the mill and allow for corners and absolute minimum 70cc chainsaw, ideally more. There is no electric corded equivalent.

I thought Logosol produced a 3 phase saw at least for a while?

They do a corded saw but it's designed to run on their F2 mills - it's not a standalone saw in its own right.

Ah yes, would do the job though at the yard. Never going to run off a 13A plug though as that's the power of a 261.

I have 3 phase, but not logosol mill, just alaskan. Not going to try rigging something up, for the amount I mill. Neighbours will just have to put up with the 660 running full tilt occasionally.  I'm sure they hate me anyway!

Hasn't @aspenarb got a big yard chainsaw? Or is it hydraulic?

I would not fancy a 70cc saw milling with a 28"bar. 92cc struggles as it is sometimes on harder wood.

i agree, 120 cc is even better! But what matters for the OP is simply that the required horse power is way beyond electric.
