I'm looking for a bigger Mill what's the best to get? I'm looking to be able to saw up to 16 or 18 foot long not shorter than 16. Also I want hydraulic controls. All hydraulic pretty much. Any advice or tips?

What is your budget and sawing expectation?  Need setworks?  Hobby or production sawing? Need to be portable?  Do you want electric or diesel / gas?

Location will make a difference in shipping if you are looking at a new mill.  If you would fill out your info as to at least the state, province or country you are from you will get a better feel as to whats avialiable to you.  Banjo
