We make rustic oak furniture so we willbe drying beams from 2inches thick up to 8 inches thick splits and crack dont really bother us but maybe we should consider a smaller boiler

Im not that bothered about the rhi ive heard there is toomuch criteria you have to meet im going to burning all waste wood and pallets on it. How is you kiln running? What are drying times on your timber please

Hi there I've had a load of lengths of wood in my workshop for 2 years now and I'm not going to use them and I was just wondering how they are worth I picked them up from an old guy who milled wood and he was getting rid of a load of his gear and in his workshop was all these lengths he gave me saying they were special wood he had kept. He says there is teak ,rosewood, mulberry and spalted Holme oak beams I will try and get pictures on when I get into work tomorrow so just wondering are they actually worth selling

I would go for petrol version it runs on very little we have put a plastic petrol container full of petrol in and it's lasted us a 8hour shift on it

How much?

I got the petrol version. The woodlands mill is worth every penny I've made my money back on it over and over I just think if i was going to go into milling as a trade I would fork and get better piece of kit. But for what I need it for it's doing just fine and we get a lot of wood come our way and instead of chopping it for firewood we get to make it more useful especially for all the wood turners that come in for wood

I think the lucas mill would suite us better as we clear alot of sites for people where we could set the lucas up and beam alot of timber up and take out of hard to reach areas whereas with the woodlands you have to pull all logs out also the thing i find with the woodlands which is probably the same with all bandsaw mills is the wave you get on the blades cut when they are get blunt can be annoying.but i am a complete newbie to milling and ive found the woodlands very easy touse and i use it alot for slicing up oak beams to make furniture out of it. Ive also made alot of money cutting up pine and larch for live edge cladding which is easy ans the wave on the cut isnt a problem when doing those. But for the money it is awesome and it always starts every time even in cold damp weather Your always welcome to come and play with it if you want to pop down to help you make up your mind
