Hi i am new to milling myself what i can say is if you want to have a go a chainsaw mill the least expensive route to take but it all depends what you want to do and haw much money you have to spend £1500 should see you set up with an alaskan (Rob Dyer on hear is your man for that ) and a chainsaw you could ask around to see if anybody would let you have a day with them milling to see hoe you got on with it i am in dorset if you want to come down just P M me if we all help each other we will all get on better Cheers Mark
-
I am based in dorset if you want to take a trip down and have a day milling with me before you commit to buying anything that would be cool just P M me and we will sort out the details might be best to wait for some better weather but hey no worries come down and have a go cheers Mark

Hi i got myself an 880 with a 4ft bar and ripping chain i find the extra power a bounus and then if you do get well hooked and start doing some big stuff you will not be looking to up grade all depends on what you intend and your budget you may also want to look at the vid on the alaskan page (winch on an alaskan) i am also very new to milling and everybody rates a winch looks easy but have not had time to try it myself good luck and happy milling Mark
