Lumber Prices are way up this year Nick.
Might be time to open a Northern Sawmill. :)
I bought a sawmill attachment for my chainsaw this winter. I've got two big walnuts and 4 or 5 oaks at my grandpa's that I want to try cutting down and milling. Thinking of making some real thick boards to save for future baseplates... 8)

A Doll Twin driving twin Doll Sawmills... perfect!
Thanks Charlie.

Thank you for all of the nice feedback!
This was a fun project.
Nick:
Lumber prices are very low right now. So, no Northern expansion in the near future.
Charlie, we'll be up here waiting for you ;)

Do you have a Sawmill in your World of Wonders? 🤠
I think I recall you doing some treasure hunting at an old Sawmill Sight.

Very cool, Charlie!

Thanks for the enjoyable video, Charlie. These sawmill have so much going on- it was a treat to seen that engine running so well. Bravo, old chap.
-
Great show Charlie !
May it be a properous venture ;D
-
A great video Charlie! A real treat.
-
Charlie, I finally gave my sawmill a run tonight, are you interested in opening another location up north?
-
Nice setup and beautiful engine.
Instead of 60 mmbf of lumber, perhaps it 6 mmbi i.e. board inches. :)
-
This is a two line Sawmill consisting of a Saw Timber (Large Log) Line and a Chip & Saw (Small Log) Line. The mill will produce 60 mmbf of dimensional lumber on a 40 hour shift.
;D :D ;D

Charlie great video and loved the slow motion.

Great video Charlie 8) I know this was about the sawmills, but I LOVE that engine!! I have never powered mine with an engine, in fact I just got the log return working right recently, but I may have to now after seeing your video ;) It's still sitting on the photo bench with the baby doll ;) just waiting for a run...

That's a great display setup - having two saws in action really makes it work well.
-
Wow! That is NICE! Great video!
