  • Excuse my rambling at the beginning.
    Here we convert the Stihl MS660 into milling shape and assemble the Portamill. I didnt explain very well, but I compare the Oregon Powercut bar to the Stihl light ES bar, both being 24', but I chose the Oregon Powercut for milling because its solid and would have way less flex. If you made it past my very muddled execution of proper chain tension then you witnessed some of my finest video work so far. ENJOY! please like and subscribe

    Thanks for the video. I bought a pm14 used and it didn't come with a manual. I have one question, what size bar can you use with it? thanks for any help

      sorry for the late reply. its not a super detailed video, but should give people the broad strokes. I'm running a 24", the guard doest fit with that length bar and is more than needed, I would suggest a 20" max. thanks for watching. cheers!

      They say 20', but you can go bigger which is why I bought it. Beyond 20' the guard will not fit and they said it can void the warranty but it's decent construction and the bar length won't add much weight. If you do rip logs beyond 22' or so, the dogs will not work. You basically need to lay the track next to the log but a large log should say in place and once it's smaller you can move it to the dogs - quarter sawing is a great option here. All being said, assembly sucks. Instructions are awful. Parts not labeled. The guide is almost useless and very inconsistent - picture orientation and parts don't match well. I was also missing parts but Norwood sent them. I feel like this product was better at one time. For example, in the assembly book I have, the wheels appear to be metal. Mine are plastic. It's expensive for what it is as it's basically an Alaskan sawmill on a track but it's far less work and the cuts are much better due to the stability. Much easier adjustment too.

    How hard is it to take the saw on and off the mill?

    • @whereswadlow44
      @whereswadlow44  Před rokem

      its a bit of a pita. but not impossible. you don't want to be taking it off and putting it back on several times a day.

      If you're using this for remote work it's best to setup and do a lot at once. If you expect to need a free chainsaw it's best to bring another with a standard vs. ripping chain. Once you get going, it moves fast. Good upgrade over the Alaskan mill which has it's place, but the track is a game changer - my back thanks me and the cuts and much more uniform and faster.

    Greetings from Bulgaria! Can you answer if the lamp is bought or you made it yourself? It looks factory! Where was it purchased from and price? If so, any details? Out of all the others this is my favorite!!! Awesome!

      im not sure what you mean. if you are refering to my work lamp, its just a adjustable work lamp for a desk, i took the shroud off and used one of those LED pedal lights that work in a regular bulb socket. its pretty bright. thanks for watching

      I got mine on sale, $1,000.00 US plus shipping and taxes.
      That's considerably less than the band saw mills.

    You need a lesson on chain adjustments

    • @whereswadlow44
      @whereswadlow44  Před 10 měsíci +1

      Where's your videos mate? You run a loose chain? It's a brand new chain for 1 and it did stretch right away (just like they always do), then tightened again it was good for all the milling I did. If you run it loose you're more likely to throw the chain. Godspeed

    I've had this product for a month. I think it will cut well, but it's not assembled. Numerous quality control problems - missing parts, damaged parts, etc. On my 3rd shipment. Customer service is great but the price of the item is not reflected in the quality. Not made in USA or CAD. The pictures in the manual look better (e.g., metal wheels in the manual, but plastic in the box). I suspect they may have cut costs too much in the manufacturing process.
