I have the Little Blue from Pascal Metals.  Got it last fall.  1st mill for me and I had zero experience with bandsaw mills before getting this one.  I've sawn a couple thousand bdft with it.  Red pine, spruce and cedar.  Works well, very easy to push.  Really like the scale.  

I'm sure I will get better with time but I can saw about 100-130 bdft/hr working alone.  Some of the red pine was 16' 8" long with about 16-18" tops.  Cuts flat and square.  Can't wait for things to dry up so I can get back at it!!!

I really like the mill and it is simple to use.

Big red looks like a lot of mill for the price

I looked at their website and I really like their sawmills.  The Big Red looks good but I liked the Green monster better, all depends on what size trees you have.  The prices also looked competitive so I like your pick.
