Mobile Sawmill

[liamjordan]

thanks for the comments guys!

 

it cost us £4000, which we thought was great, we know it has done hardly any work because the main work it did with its previous owner was cutting up trees that my granddad fell, enough for a house, then its done some other little bits but not much.

 

It came with the main mill, and all the custom bits:

- bed extentions so you cant cut a 20ft log

- ramps and hand winch to roll logs up

- axle and tow bar components, that lock onto the main mill section turning it into a trailer

I'd say it was a steal at £4k, will soon pay for its self.

 

Nice to see some great pics with the story. Keep it up young `un:thumbup1:

Really impressed!

 

Its something I would love to do as I have the facilities for storage and drying.

 

Would you mind me asking, how did you decide there was a market for your produce? Do you have an outlet to sell anything you produce? Is there a demand for a mobile service?

 

Quite pertinent business questions, you dont have to answer if you dont want to. I am just curious.

my granddad has always done timber, we have static bandsaw in our yard, but its old and we decided that we should have some new kit, the static one will still be used, just not as often as it used to be, there is a lot of demand for sawing round by us, a lot of old black and white houses that get restored and barn conversions, we have got 2 jobs since we bought this cutting oak for barn conversions, which will be done in the not to distant future
