    However, at 300/400 bags an hour you could make $1000/hr so it could be paid for by the end of the week. All you need is an unlimited supply of sawdust. :whistle:

    I think they're claiming the bagging system can do 300 bags per hour. That little pellet mill would never make that much.

    Lucky to make $100 or less an hour after all costs are subtracted.

    My father and I looked into getting a PTO powered pellet mill just to make the 12 tons of pellets he burns per year, and we could not get the numbers to work. Granted that was a smaller scale then what is advertised, but after getting the wood chipper, hammer mill and pellet maker; it just was just too much with fuel and time. Even at $230 a ton buying it was pretty cheap.
