Steve also likes the way sizes can be set up. “You don’t have to walk down the other end of the mill to raise it up,” he said. And setting the horizontal size is simple too.
“Also, the tracks can be set up so you can roll the logs into place easily. It also allows the sawdust to clear out the sides.
“Everything is operator friendly, which means I can do 12-hour days and not feel too exhausted.”
On a good day, with a tailor out, Steve can cut 3.5 to 4 cubic metres (1400-1600 bft) of 4″ x 1″ timber.
He has also been impressed by the after sales service from Peterson’s. “If you ever have a concern, they’re only a phone call away and they’ll do every-thing they can to help you,” he said.
