Sorry just to add when milling the outer edges into inch boards i never move the blade up or down. Just rip through move the cut board and rip again and just keep repeating process until finished. Great waney edge boards so maximise profits (firewood) ton bags for all the loose stuff £40 a bag which pays for the next load of uncut logs or helps towards cost ??

Example of what i have tried to explain how i will mill most of my logs. Just a quick sketch as had a couple of pms. I cut the centre to a finished size beam and all the outer into inch boards which gives around 80% of the log for £££

Second how efficient are they speed wide. I have a 36 bar here which i use with my own made aslakan type setup but its brutal on the back

What i do with mine is to cut the biggest square beam out of each piece possible as can then be milled into 4x2 6x2 8x2 ect ect or custom cut beams to order.You have the same mill as me and how i mill to maximise the log is to say example. Yon have a 20x20 beam on the mill i wind up the blade a full inch above to a full 21 1/8 and place all the outer edge cuts one by one on top of the 20 inch beam and run each peace in 1 inch slabs so you will end up with 14x1 down to 4x1 boards when square cut. All the waste goes for firewood and sawdust for bedding ect. That is my own self taught milling method. Interesting to see how you guys do it. Happy new year all by the way ?

I am no expert in this area but surly there is some sort of law that if utilities are running or required over someones land then that would be on the side of the utility company so if the contractor has a letter stating he has the correct conditions to carry out works on their behalf then no come back to them ??

Take down is a take down. Photos show its in a tight place so needs to be done in the proper way with the safety side in mind.
