Our Sawmill

In 1997 we acquired a Mighty Mite saw mill from cental Florida. This sawmill was made in the pacific northwest and made to "drop" into forested areas and cut trees up to a 6 foot diameter. It runs on a Volkswagon engine that does not need to be altered to fit the shaft of the mill. What makes this mill different from others is that with a 30 inch vertical blade and two 13inch blades mounted horizontally, it can cut two boards at the same time. The largest board we can cut is 12 inches by 4 inches with a normal cut but by turning the log, larger cants can be made. When the blade returns to the operator, it brings the cut boards with it, drastically reducing the amount of pulling and lifting needed. It is truly a one man sawmill

Most of the wood used in the rebuilding of the farm cabin was sawed from trees on our property using this Mill
