I just bought a little sawmill.
Advertisements [?]
It was built about 15 years ago based on a woodmizer. It can saw 30" dia logs x 18' long into lumber. This most recent winter there was a huge amount of windfall. The guys with the little portable mills stay quite busy.

I brought it home today and milled my first log (a really gnarly sitka spruce about 9' long). Worked great.

Anyone else have any experience with these?

(FWIW: I picked my username 14 years ago primarily based on my affinity for Monty Python and Michael Palin. I don't think it influenced my choice of hobbies.)
