Well, I got the sawmill together and up and running. For a total of 4 hours. Then sold it.
I found a larger mill that was already set up on a factory Woodlands trailer with 4 hours on it. Ready to go. So I upgraded the other weekend.
And just like that, I upgraded to a mill that can cut 30” diameter and up to 17’ long logs, on a trailer and ready to go. Also set up with ramps and an electric winch for logs that are too big for the tractor. Should work out well.
Already put 8 hours on it milling beams and posts for the tractor a land mill shed as well as some disposable 2x8s for my wife’s raised bed flower gardens.
I cut a lot of poplar to clear some space for the house and driveway, so I’m making use of that wood that otherwise wouldn’t be used for much. Lots of pines waiting…
