Frequently Asked Questions

  • We turn woods-grown logs from our property and customer-supplied logs, into usable lumber using a portable band sawmill.
    Common uses include:

    • Barns & sheds

    • Farm structures

    • Trailers & decking

    • Furniture & woodworking projects.

  • Logs We Accept

    ✔ Woods-grown logs preferred
    ✔ Straight logs produce the best lumber
    ✔ Typical lengths: 10–16 feet
     ✔ Larger logs may be suitable for wide boards or slabs

    ❌ Yard trees may contain metal and are accepted only by approval
     ❌ Logs with excessive rot, sweep, or damage may be refused

    Tip: Better logs = better yield = lower cost per usable board.

  • We are a small, local, disabled veteran owned sawmill business that works directly with customers instead of offering a one-size-fits-all lumber experience. Our focus is on practical, usable lumber for real projects — including sheds, hunting blinds, trailer decking, farm use, fencing, blocking, posts, and custom builds.

    Because we mill the lumber ourselves, we can offer rough-cut sizes, custom cuts, and project-based lumber packages that may not be available from standard retail suppliers. We also keep our pricing and cut lists as straightforward as possible so customers know what they are getting and can plan their project with confidence.

  • You can reach us anytime via our contact page or email. We aim to respond quickly—usually within one business day.

  • Pricing is agreed upon before milling begins.

    Custom Milling Rates

    • $0.75 per board foot sawn
      OR

    • $100 per hour (1-hour minimum)

    The pricing method depends on log quality, job size, and complexity.

    Additional Services

    • Log pickup or delivery (if available): $75–$125

    • Stacking & stickering by operator: $0.05 per board foot

    • Trimming to final length: $0.05–$0.10 per board foot

  • Collaborative, honest, and straightforward. We're here to guide the process, bring ideas to the table, and keep things moving.

  • Logs may contain hidden metal.

    If metal damages a blade:

    • Customer is responsible for blade replacement cost

    • $25 downtime fee may apply

    Using woods-grown logs greatly reduces this risk.
