Home-Built Sawmill Handles Biggest, Toughest Logs
 ✖  |
My home-built sawmillwill handle the biggest, toughest logs. It's powered by a 50 hp. Cummins Onan engine, which runs the bandsaw blades and debarker. An 11 hp. Honda engine runs all hydraulics on the log carriage itself. The saw's operated by 32 switches.Our best 2-day run with the sawmill was 12,128 board feet in 17.2 hours. It was all big spruce butt logs about 16 ft. long and the customer wanted all the 2 by 12's they could get out of them. This sawmill has tremendous power and cuts precision lumber. It's a money-maker. (James K. Mitchell, 7896 U.S. 11, Potsdam, N.Y. ph 315 265-7647)
