Double ended Granberg based milling kit. Use with x2 chainsaw powerheads OR with one large powerhead and supplied helper handle. Each of these kits comes with a super heavy duty GB double ended bar and adapters to use with different chainsaws. If you are considering a double ended kit also click here to check out our super heavy duty double ended Panther mills which are made from a 45mm profile. You get x1 chain with this but really you need at least one back up chain so scroll down to see options and prices. Included in package is a breaker and mender kit to shorten/lengthen chains as different saws can mean slightly different drive link counts.
