Milling

The mill is lightweight and portable.

Transported in a trailer, its component parts can be carried or
wheeled by one operator and assembled close to, or actually around, the felled tree.

This means that vehicular access is not required either to move the fallen tree or to bring in the mill.

The mill normally operates with a circular sawblade to produce square section boards, planks or beams up to 9½ins x 9½ins.

If wider sections are required or waney edged boards or perhaps curved sectioned timber, a ‘slabbing’ attachment is fitted.  This allows timber of widths up to an amazing 1.5 metres to be cut.

In either set up tree trunks of up to 6 metres in length can be converted.
