  • Awesome video! I will need to purchase one of these. Thanks for the clear and informative video. Cheers

    This video needs more love. I really appreciated this review. I share his excitement using the Granberg products. I just sold my Timbertuff TMW-56 because I was not pleased with the QC. I like his plywood template. Using a 2x6 can work but it is more subject to warping. For a remote location like this the 555 seems to be a good investment. For me I have resorted to a 7 1/4 Circular saw (Worm Drive saw being even better) and a Chalk line. A/C is not always available. I think a pair of saw chaps would have made me a little less nervous but thank you!

    You can get a 16" bar to fit your 680. I use a 800p in my granberg mills but was also planning on getting a 680 to run in the edging mill. Thanks for the plywood tip to use as a guide track. If I would have thought of that first I wouldn't have spent $38 bucks on a 2"x6"x12' redwood board lol.

    Great video !! Will b purchasing and edging mill to put on my echo 680 Great saw super happy with it !!

    I like your plywood idea instead of using 2x lumber. Looks like a good setup!
  • Great video. Just purchased the edging mill but have yet to use it. Also glad to see your an echo fan aswell. Great saws. I will be using my 620pw with the mill.
  • Man that is a pretty nice setup for edging logs. Husqvarna 560 would work great for that. I believe it's 56 cc's or 53

    I found a Grunberg mini mill in a scrap pile at a garage sale. I'm trying to find missing parts for it. I have an Alaskan mill with a Sthil 881. This edging mill will be great. Good video BTW. Thank you.

    The circular is much more effective and safer in this case. I prefer the chainsaw track mill on a swivel which makes cutting easier. It's great for trimming off the sides of a large log and decreasing its width for the 36" Alaskan mill.

    Nice my boss..👍 Keep safe to your freehand mill 🙂

    Good demonstration! A couple of points: 1) the guide board - did you have a deal on <1/2" ply so that you got that and built it up (with a bunch of screws and hopefully wood glue) instead of just using 3/4" ply already glued together for you? It's common to make a non-marring circular-saw track out of 1/8-1/4 board glued to 1/2-3/8" ply... 2) Throwing the dust upward is a fault of orientation - flip the handle around on that guide, drill new mounting holes if you need to, but make it so that it remains relatively balanced but is being pushed through with the top of the chain running in front, sending the chips DOWN instead of up. 3) Cutting depth is going to be hampered by bar rigidity due to the difficulty in keeping a straight cut. You should really have the guide mounted as close as possible to the motor both for balance as well as rigidity. Flipping the guide handle around will help with this by allowing better clearance vs the safety. 4) For safety, PLEASE use the SHORTEST possible bar on such a set-up - you are just begging to rub that sucker into your knees 😳

    I use a Hadan lumber maker I got for $20 for edging. I'd like to find one those gasoline powered circular saws that homelite used to make for more precise edging when there's no electricity.
  • I do the same edging with a circular saw and a straightedge clamped in place.
