Do you think I should put a bid in Jonathan ?:sneaky2:

 

Be my guest! :001_tt2:

 

It's not a huge amount for a hydraulic sawmill, but it's a lot of money if you've not got the work to justify it (like with any piece of kit I suppose).

Is 12,000 cheap for one of those. I dont know alot about them as you know big J it looks like its been outside for 15 years.

 

They are £32k new plus options. 45hp diesel is a hefty motor for an LT40 and it's a super hydraulic, so quicker hydraulics. I'd say that £12k is about the right price, though you might get it for less than that. I'd certainly rather spend £12k on that than £8k on a new manual mill!

I did not realise they were 32k :scared1: put that like that I see why. How much quicker do you think it would be than our little lt15 especially if no accuracy is needed.

I reckon you'd get at least three times the production rate. The hydraulics are what speeds it up. You don't want to push the band too quickly as very inaccurate cuts will knock out alignment, knock the set off the band or break the bands.
