I run a small portable bandmill service for southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois. I have competitive rates, and as long as you dont mind getting your hands dirty I would love for you to join in on the action. It is a great learning experience and great feeling, knowing that you took your next project from tree to heirloom. I work hard to get the most out of your logs and will go into great detail, if desired, in explaining the milling process from first-cut to finish-drying with tips and techniques. I also go over different types of sawing for figure and/or stability. I love to uncover the true hidden beauty of wood; the stuff you cannot find at the big box stores.

Manual Bandmill, no hydraulics. 36″ max log diameter, 30″ max cut width. 12ft max log length unless specified. With bed extension can cut 20ft.
