It's spalded which makes it a bit less boring to look at 👍
-
Yes it's a big one, so I appreciate getting it done safely. I don't think there's a mobile outfit near me, so I'll need to come up with a plan myself 👍
-
It's a tree in my garden, so I've plenty of time to work at it.👍
-
What's the best way to go about sorting this tree out, my biggest saw is 572xp with 24" bar, but the tree is 6ft+ at it's widest, I think the biggest bar it takes is 36"? I'd like to have some of it milled up for furniture etc, I've an Alaskan mill but think I'll struggle to be honest, all advice greatly received.
-
Got the Chinesium mill and cut my first board with stock bar, I'll probably only get 16"-17" from it though. The finish wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be, lots more practice and messing about to do, but there's hope 🤣 Thanks for the help folks 👍
-
Many thanks for the advice 👍👍👍👍
-
I think it's 5.8hp? Maybe a 36" bar to mill 25" or so ?
-
I've a Chilaskan ordered up. You reckon my 572 would pull a 42" lo pro ? I've a decent straight oak needing to come down about 32" thick also, but don't think I'll tackle it until i get setup proper and confident in what I'm doing 😁😁
-
I'll get a few pic, there between 20"-32" thick and 10-15ft lengths.

Thanks, i need to check but i think some of the beech is wider than 24" and I'd have to buy a new guide and chain etc, so got to cost it out like you say. I have a metal fab shop at home, so might look into making my own mill 🙄
-
Sorry, didn't realise I'd put it in the wrong section lol
-
I've a 572xp with a decent length bar on it
-
I've some beech I'd like to plank up but have never used a saw mill, are the portable one's advertised for use with a chainsaw any good? Cheers Robert

It's a bolt on rack, i mostly use it when camping but it's also handy for carrying my saw between fields on the farm.
