mill

Hello everyone, I’m new here on this site and also new to the chainsaw milling industry. English is not my first lenguaje so if something isn’t written good it’s because of that. Ok so let me begin: Introduction: My name is Leonardo, I’m 23 years old and I live in Central America. 2 years ago...

Hello everyone, I'm new to the site and using my old chainsaw to mill lumber. I recently hooked an Alaskan style mill to my old 78 husky 61 rancher to mill some old gluelam beams for a table top. While I was able to do what I wanted I am wondering if I can get a cleaner cut with a different...

Hi All, I promised in another thread a while ago that I'd report back on a CSM re-build project I was undertaking....It's taken a lot longer than I'd hoped (day-job, kids, bushfires, pandemics etc), but I finished it a few weeks ago and so below are a few pics of the build. I had been...

I have a husqvarna 365, bought new this year. I have been milling slabs with it using an oregon 28" bar, trying various brand ripping chains. I have some great timber that is too big for the 28" setup (max cut width ~23"). Will my 365 be able to run a 32" bar and chain (max cut ~26-27") with...

Just picked up a CS-800p with a 2o" and 36" bar along with a few chains for $225. Ive got a 36" granberg mill that I've been using my cs-590 with a 27" bar on, but it tends to struggle. I'm still relatively new to this so I thought I'd ask the experts... First... Are there specific bars that...

Hey fellas, There are a lot of great threads on this site discussing unique and homemade CSM guide rails. Unfortunately, lots of those pictures don't exist anymore in the threads. As I've discovered, I think it was because the site got hacked. Anyhow, would some of you with homemade guide...

So I had two giant white oak trees taken down on my property, bases 40-48" diameter. Company wanted too much to haul it off, so I decided to mill it. Built a saw and a mill and went to town. One of the trees was rather dead, and had some really amazing spalting in the sap wood. After drying for...

I'm thinking of water jetting an artistic pattern into my chainsaw bar and am wondering if it can be done. I would choose a pattern that would minimize the loss of structural integrity, but I am also wondering if the metal in the center of a bar is solid, laminated or riveted together? Anyone...

Hi, new member but not new to the site! I've read about a couple ads with an 880 that were bogus and hope mine doesn't fall through the cracks! Selling my 880 with 41" bar and 2 chains. Purchased brand new and not run as much as I'd hoped, (still has all the paint on the bar...) and runs...

I broke down to AS peer pressure! Yes I blame all of you! :laugh: Just placed an order for a Huztl MS660 and a bunch of misc stuff including a 36" Holzfforma chainsaw mill on sale for $57.41 + s for the next 20 hrs or day+20 hrs. It states "1 DAY 20:04:32" as of now. Can't wait for it to...

thought i would share my project, i have a woods that infested with buckthorn so rather than cut it an let it rot i figured i would dry some straight pieces and find a use for it later . i also cut and milled some oak with a Alaskan mill around the same time.. after a year drying time in the...

I found a guy a couple hours away from me with a panther 2 mill. 48 " never used. Was selling with bar and chain. For 365. But got him to separate it out as bar won't fit my saw. He wants 165 for the mill? Looked online they are about 189 new plus shipping. I think I'd have more in the. Gas at...

So I wanted to get a woodmizer but fear I'll be over extending myself so have been looking to make boards for my own uses rather than high production Why would I pay for a logosol vs the cheaper granburg. Am I missing something? Never looked at mills like this too much but wondering why...

Well, so much for the 20 questions game... Hi everybody, my name is Rob. I've read over too many pages and somehow not enough and only recently joined AS. My firewood saw is a MS290 but not quite powerful enough for milling, a skill I've been wanting to try for years. Now that I'm grown up and...
