Hi I will take some photos next week when I am next at my storage ,and I know I got it a few yrs ago but its always been in a lean to and had a cover over it when not in use I always looked after it and yeah it has less than 20hrs on the clock and ripper 37's are around £400 so I think £3500 

Mark i offered a good proper offer for that mill and others have confirmed its the correct value. I have great respect for you and we have spoken on the phone before. 

 

I am really not on the lookout for a mill but i have took on a young lad and my Tom (autism) gets on with luke great so it would be a project for them

 

OFFER IS 3K

Just for info for others, I took 5 logs to Mark for him to mill for us last year so an hour or so of that time was that, and the mill still looked in extremely good condition despite being a few years old, although he had to pull start it each time as he'd dropped a spanner across the battery terminals when checking the thing still ran as he'd not used it for ages.

 

A couple of months later he asked if we'd be interested in buying it and we agreed a price of £3500, knowing we were paying a premium for a mill with little use. However he then withdrew from the sale as he couldn't face selling it. We ended up investing a bit more and bought a brand new HM130MAX and decided in the end that we were glad we did, not just to have a new mill but also that it would have taken a lot of effort to dismantle, move and rebuild it in the woods.

Hi everyone ,so thinking about selling my mill even though I dont want to ,my health isnt the best fractured my spine before christmas so lifting big slabs is out ,lost our yard and everything is in storage ,I love sawmilling but at almost 60yrs old setting up another yard ,I would need lifting kit like a forklift ,yards are so expensive around us so yeah as much as I dont want to sell it I think its prob the best idea if I can sell most of the Mahagony and Utile I have it would give me enough cash to buy a nice classic Bus or Truck to convert and do some travelling , so Whats it worth its next to brand new hasnt got 20hrs on the clock and I have 6/8 ripper 37's they do have some surface rust but are still brand new looking on line a new HM130 Max static is £4,198 so what do you guys think less than 20hrs on the clock and bands got to be £3750 ,as always looking forward to seeing what you think.
