Next step up from a chainsaw mill

[Old Lands]

Somebody called ecologjiggle? Somewhere in Somerset? I sent him an email or two last year. I think it also takes a slabber so it might be what you need?

I see they do freight from nz, looks like all in it may come to around £6500 maybe. The videos look quite good but obviously being powered by a chainsaw it's not as powerful as a lucas mill for example. But it must be lighter, I already have the chainsaw, it will still be a lot quicker and easier than chainsaw milling, with far less wastage. Looking like a good option!

Peterson mills are imported by "Loglogic", peverstone,Devon,speak to graham or Marcus.

logosol is a norwood, they import them into the UK, there is plenty of small to medium bandmills on the market at the moment, but as you get to larger and longer, the price goes up, I ws standing open mouthed today looking at a double slabber mill ...built with 2, yes 2, stenner 48 band mill heads.................

Yeah I was considering a Norwood origionally but it has limited size capacity and I have nowhere to store it. The turbosaw warrior can tackle larger logs and packs away smaller.

But it would be reassuring if any could give a good review!

Have a look at a treka saw they dismantle like a peterson and I have been told are good mills

if you dont mind a wide kerf you cant go wrong with a Lucasmill.

if you want a narrow kerf how about a LT15 wide Woodmizer suposed to be able to cut 36"" wide slabs
