These look like nice machines. Id like to get a mill one of these days and make videos about it.

[@tennesseebuck1604]

As with most purchases of this size I did a tremendous amount of research before placing the order for my MP-32. I watched videos, read data sheets and made phone calls. Some of the things about other mills just made no since to me! Bolt together frames and rails are going to move with use. This will necessitate continual adjustment and frustration. I could not understand why a large number of mills had the operator walking in the sawdust while cutting. Blade lube systems that just poured water or other lube on the blade seemed wasteful and messy. I could go on and on!
I picked my MP-32 Mill up in March and so far I am very impressed. My mill is exactly like the one Robert demonstrates in this video. I highly recommend the additional squaring arm and clamp as well as the toe board and Jack.
I towed my mill to North Carolina and then to my property in Tennesse. Just as Robert said. It tows Great!
Great Video Robert!!

So, a hair over 20k? Seems a wise move over getting an orange one.

[@rogerdenney3663]

p.s. How long of a wait to receive your mill after ordering?

I ordered my mill in January 2023 and picked it up in March 2024. Robert initially quoted me a 75 week wait. The mill was ready in 61 weeks. I was quoted similar or longer lead times by other mill companies at that time. I was told by all the Mill companies that the long lead times were supplier related. I think this has improved.

There is an Orange dealer about 30 miles from my home. I drove almost 1200 miles round trip to pickup my mill.

Love mine. Has needed very little to no maintenance and produces some very nice lumber. Nice job Robert.

I’ve owned one of these since 2019. The only issues I’ve had are. 1: I’ve had to replace the lower arm of the winch system with a 1/4 inch square tubing ( I bent the 3/16” while rotating a heavy oak log) 2: the wiper does not wipe when I do a big 28” or larger log with the guide pulled all the way out. And 32? I can only cut a 30”!! If it’s straight! All that said’ I absolutely love my MP32. Great saw for the money!!

I have a 2007 model MP32 and have fit a 33 1/2" log between the uprights, but max out at 29 1/2" max cut width.

[@captncully5217]

Just measured my max cut to be sure. 27” in is max cut, can get 30” between the rails

You have to adjust the felt wiper down with the 1/4 bolt when you adjust the roller arm 👍
