Cost of Onsite Milling
My mate has a pile of very large Macrocarpa cypress he is keen on getting milled. Located near Batlow NSW. How much per day would be a ball park figure for having the stuff milled on site with something like a Lucas Mill? There are about 10 to 12 very large trees involved...they were around the 100 foot mark.
I know that is one of those...how long is a piece of string questions but he is keen not to get done over.
Any help advice, suggestions welcomed.

I will be milling at Tumut in May if that's of any help. What are the log lengths we are working with and what breast height diameters (roughly)?
A bit of an idea on what sizes are required or if they are to be slabbed only would vary the price quite a bit. Can you tell me a bit about the site ie access,
flat, cleared etc.
