Robin started the Milland Furniture Workshop in the early eighties but dissatisfied with the quality of the wood he was being supplied, he bought a mobile bandsaw mill, the Trekkasaw, to mill his own. The hurricane of 1987 changed his life, with so many fallen trees, sawmilling took over. This in turn led to his involvement with the Government Overseas Develpment Administration and the British Army in supplying and commissioning sawmills to communities in Africa and Southern America.

Robin took over the Trekkasaw company in 1991 and in 1995 developed a one man operated, automated, hydraulically driven, mobile sawmill, the Autotrek.

Coming back from the overseas work Robin focused on building up the business of contract sawmilling and timber production and sales in the south of England working with organisations such as National Trust, English Heritage and the Forestry Commission as well as local landowners.
