Great design!

[@jeffreyrathbone268]

Great job and thanks for the great video

[@RedRockRancher]

Thank you, and thanks for watching.

[@oklahomacrabber]

Nice! Thanks

[@bendelliskave5132]

Have you tried cutting both directions ? The mill design is perfect.

[@RedRockRancher]

No Sir, we have not.

[@georgewages8539]

I will copy this if you dont mind ? what did you use for the adjusting rods. Allthread?

[@RedRockRancher]

Hi George
Yes, it’s allthread. I believe its 3/4” or 1” the saw bar holders are welded to a connecting nut threaded onto the allthread.
Feel free to message me if you have any other questions.
Cheers

Also wondering if a electric motor could be used as mine will be stationary

[@RedRockRancher]

Yes, it sure would. We are an off grid Ranch so it only made sense to use a chainsaw

[@joshsoorlin579]

Can I contact you about how you attached the lead screws at the bottom/top? Email? Thanks!!

[@vinimarshall7301]

I wouldve build the deck higher at the start so your cutting down hill🤣

[@dundycbr23]

Why chain saw and not a belt saw

[@RedRockRancher]

Chainsaw seemed like a better choice for an off grid property.
Thx for the input, thou.

Is this for sale? What is your asking price? Where is it located?

[@RedRockRancher]

Hi Tom,
We’re located in Vancouver BC

[@joshsoorlin579]

Finally someone makes a new vid on these style mills

[@hillbilly918]

How much wood should it cut before you would have to replace the motor

[@RedRockRancher]

Well with proper fuel mixture & maintenance the chainsaw motor should last a while. We mix the fuel/oil ratio about 40:1. Sure smokes a little more but that extra oil helps keep the saw motor well lubed. We’ve been running that saw motor nearly 15 years. Still great compression & power.

@@RedRockRancher wow thats good to hear I'm planning on buying a stihl ms881. I'm hoping it'll cut enough planks I can rip down on a tablsaw to build a house

[@RedRockRancher]

I think on one of our other chainsaw mill videos, it shows how we edge the planks once there cut.
No need for a tablesaw. Just stand up a bunch and rip them down with the mill. It’s way easier cutting then when your slabbing, so goes fast.
