Im half way tempted to get one soon but would love to hear from some one that has one.

If you are using sawdust, you will need to buy a dryer. The sawdust has a very high moisture content and will not dry adequately in a pile.

If you are not using sawdust, you will need a hammer mill. before going to the dryer.

Hay would not need a dryer but you will need a hammer mill.

The pellet machine will go through dies quickly, you need to make sure that you will be able to replace them and get other parts.

After you make the pellets, you will need to cool and dry them before storing them.

Depending on your souce material, you will need to experiment to see if you need a binder.
