Mobile milling

[slackbladder]

Might sound a daft question but how much timber would you expect a mobile sawmill to cut in a day, i'm trying to work out wether it's worth me getting one in for a day

Have been looking at the kit wondering whether is worth buying a set up so interested in your thread. Guess it depends how much timber you need and what you have needs cutting.

I suppose also, are the logs on easy ground with plenty of space to mill & stack? Or are they in the midst of an isolated wood with poor access?

how longs a bit of string !, as Big J says there are so many variables with a mobile set up you dont know how much timber till the end of the shift

[Chunkymunky]

What kind of rate can you expect cost wise?

Ahh ok. Not bad really. As long as you can get the work in. Reckon a hiab landy with a mobile milling trailer would be a good set up.

I dont think he says that 1 log is worth £1200, clearly you don't see the rest of the timber. if not I'm going to have to have a serious look at my log pile!!
