Quick Reference Guide
- Know what your going to use your lumber for. This helps you decide the practicality of your project. How long to cut your logs, the stacking and storing your lumber.
- Transporting your logs to the sawmill. A trailer is a good option.
- My fee’s: $.50 pbf hardwood, $.40 pbf softwood. $25 blade charge if I hit a nail.
There’s a number of reasons I don’t move the sawmill, mostly related to productivity.
