I have been shopping for a mill for about a month and can't decide.... I started out wanting a MDs, but have seen a wood-mizer work and have also looked into a swing blade......They all have there plus and minuses. I like the Mobile demension because of simplicity and speed....its also not to much to set up and there is no loading issues as it works at ground level. I like the band mill because of reduced waste and the un-hook it and go, but don't like the price and the log diameter restrictions, or the fact of having to think about getting the logs up onto it..... The swing mills are pricy, but very portable and I think the mobile demension is basically the same thing with fewer passes to cut one board. My basic needs are to beable to cut cants for beams and timber framing....3/4x 9.25" boards for bee boxes and whatever custom milling comes my way.
