How big ? Is it a job for a chainsawmill or for a portable bandmill ?

[Theocus]

a band saw will not touch it unless its huge!!! Its a job for a chainsaw mill.

Peterson mill would be your best bet for doing this... can do up to 5ft log, 6m long and is super fast and accurate.

 

 

If no one takes you up let me know. I'd bring my mill up but it would cost a fair old bit.... i.e. £400-00 a day + vat and then mileage on top of that.

Have you any pics, size of log and info on beams required ?

[Theocus]

What i will do is pass on numbers etc to the client and go from there. The oak is a fair size, im guessing at least 4-5 feet in diameter and it is still in the field eith limbs attached but has been down for a long time.

I will contact the client and go from there.
