Frequently Asked Questions ABOUT OUR SAWMILLING SERVICES

1. What Does a Saw Mill Do?
A sawmill processes logs into usable lumber by cutting them into boards, beams, slabs, and other wood products. Modern sawmills use band saws, circular saws, and portable milling machines to produce high-quality lumber for construction, furniture making, and woodworking. Sawmills can process hardwood and softwood species, offering various cuts such as dimensional lumber, live edge slabs, and custom beams. Some sawmills, like Mill Pro Lumber, offer portable saw milling, bringing the mill directly to the customer’s location for on-site processing..


2. Is it worth milling your own lumber?
Milling your own lumber can be highly beneficial, depending on your needs. Here are some advantages:

  • Cost Savings – Milling your own wood can be cheaper than purchasing pre-cut lumber, especially for specialty cuts.
  • Customization – You can control the size, shape, and finish of your lumber, ensuring it fits your exact project requirements.
  • Sustainability – Repurposing fallen or storm-damaged trees reduces waste and supports environmentally friendly practices.
  • Unique Wood Selection – Access to high-quality hardwoods or rare grain patterns that may not be available at standard lumber yards.
    While milling your own lumber can save money, it requires proper equipment, drying time, and expertise to ensure stable, usable wood.


3. What Are the Saw Milling Techniques?
There are several saw milling techniques, each offering different benefits depending on the wood species and the desired final product:

  • Plain Sawing (Flat Sawing) – The most common method, cutting logs into boards with parallel, straight cuts, maximizing yield but producing more movement in the wood.
  • Quarter Sawing – Logs are cut into quarters before being milled into boards, resulting in consistent grain patterns, reduced warping, and increased stability.
  • Live Sawing (Through and Through) – The log is cut straight from one side to the other, producing wide slabs with natural grain variations, often used for live edge slabs.
  • Rift Sawing – Boards are cut at a 30-60° angle to the grain, creating tight, straight grain patterns, ideal for furniture and flooring.
  • Slabbing – A technique used to produce thick, wide live edge slabs for tables, countertops, and mantles, preserving the natural shape of the tree.
