    Default mill sizes

    my forrester will cut around the 950 in width but i also have a lucas slabber that will do 1500 wide aswell on the forrester i run the TCT blades so you get very minimal blade score on the timber and as for the lucas i run the 2 on 3 off skip tooth chain so you dont get alot of blade score from that either
