I have used this mill for the last 6 months. I bought it new and milled about 40 large Oak Slabs. With two saws I was able to cut up to 54 inches wide. Most slabs I cut are 3 inches thick, which makes them hundreds of pounds. Unfortunately I had the bar break across the drilled oil holes and have been unable to get a replacement. Mill will soon be back in service with a competitor’s blade. Expensive repair. Also note that chains need reshaping about every 5 cuts ( 50 inches by 3 inches by 11 feet. Love the portability, but expect real physical workout.

I am certainly no professional sawyer, nor do I have a lot of experience milling lumber, however this mill really makes easy work of milling large stock. It has milled both Maple and Black Walnut so far, and has not disappointed. It took a little time to setup, but the instructions were easy to follow. I would highly recommend 2 people to haul it around, as a large power-head mounted to it makes it a little cumbersome to carry. The winch system is an absolute must with this beast. The auxiliary oiler is also a great add on, however be prepared to pucker when you start drilling holes in a $500 bar. Measure 3 times, and drill once! The quality of materials and workmanship of the product is top shelf. In the past I have used a competitors mill, and the Granberg has it beat hands down. Buy once, cry once.
