    The biggest Thibg we have found is with any blade you need to let them rest, once they have gone blunt we take them off then leave them at least 24 hrs before setting and then grinding. Honestly we haven't had a blade snap in ages and the life we get out of our blades is starting to annoy our blade supplier lol

    The work will come you need to just get your name out there, word of mouth soon spreads stock 8x8. 6x6 are always useful in various lengths. You can never have the right stock but as long as you have trunks to pick and choose from, it won't be hard to full full future orders.

    The trees I've milled have been ok, we get a lot of farmers bringing slabs from timber that was blown down on there land which em they were told to mill rather than just log and that apart from being hard doesn't seem that bad.

    From experience the best burrs are on the out side so trim one side then once the burrs start reducing, turn it again and take off more, then again once they start reducing turn again. We usually take burrs off at 1.25" but it all depends how nice they are. And like j says stack well and store well

    The other (grey) sawmill is the new woodmizer wm1000 we bought it to break down very large logs, the throat cut is 1.7m compared with .7 of the woodmizer lt40

    There are a lot of mills out there I am biased to woodmizer a as we use them also my dad got his first one in the 90's so a lot of experience with good results, I'd talk to reps and try to have a go with the different mills available, also u need good back up with any mill so see who can offer this.
