Which Rhino model Should I choose?

The choice between the Rhino 500b Classic, the R750 and R950 will depend on the log sizes and volumes you are cutting. The Rhino 500b Classic will be perfect if you are cutting soft or medium timbers such as pine and eucalyptus, but if you often cut harder woods or logs above 500mm in diameter, then it would be a good idea to get the extra strength, durability and size capacity that comes with the R750 or R950 Sawmills. For those wanting more automation the R950 is perfect as the sawing height adjustment is operated by control panel with electric rise and fall.

Rhino 500b Classic

• Heavy duty build • Perfect for soft and medium timber • Unbeatable value for money

The 500b is perfect for first time sawmillers wanting to enter the market. With unbeatable value for money and a build that is far heavier than any other starter mill; with thick bed steel, reinforced double guide track, four chains on the head lifting system, and with four posts supporting the saw head for greater stability and less vibrations.

The toughest starter mill on the market, compare the machine’s weight, robust components and customer reviews to see for yourself.

Bought two of the Rhino 500 band sawmills. Very strong beds and parts are affordable and easy to get. Made local why would you buy anything else.
