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.

If you can weld and have access to a workshop, why not have a go at building a splitter to suit your needs. There's plenty of info on the web regards building a splitter, there pretty basic by design. I made this one. It runs off a mini digger or tractor hydraulics, cost small money to make.[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AZyvVyHnXQ]YouTube - log splitter[/ame]
