Looking into portable sawmills? Cool choice! They’re great for milling your own lumber from logs right where you cut them, saving a lot on transportation and buying lumber.
Here’s a quick overview of portable sawmills:
What Are Portable Sawmills?

You bring the mill to the logs instead of hauling logs to a stationary mill.
Typically smaller and more affordable than industrial sawmills.
