I think you will get a chainsaw mill for £200+ per day & a band saw at around £300+. I think my local one charges £380 per day within the local area & then plus traveling on top of that. His mill is one of the bigger ones & can do about 6m long & nearly 1m dia logs. If you then add in plenty of helping hands & a lifter of some sort you can get through a lot in a day.
A band mill will produce more per hour, to a better quality & with less wastage. A chain mill can break down logs that are too large to move or fit on a band mill. IE cut it up in a garden so it will come out down an alley.
