[QUOTE="BlueRider, post: 895092, member: 13871"] I have give this topic a lot of thought, particulaqrly when I mill on a hot day with no wind to blow the exhaust out of my face. I think the best way might be to use a glof cart motor and mount the inverter directly on the mill There are some really high torque dc motors around and by usinf a golf cart motor you could use the gas pedal/rehostat to control the chain speed as well as starting and stoping. There is also a very interesting section on mike acres site about vintage industrial electric chainsaws. I have never seen one in the wild but wouldn't mind taking a closer look at one to see if it would work for a mill set up.
