New lumber mill

The owner was in and talked to a few of us. He just wanted us to know he was there and open for business. I’m not sure about a website but give a call. I believe he was interested in becoming a member at some point.

Mike,
The walnut I had with me last night was cut by Carl and his two sons Tim and Carl Waltz Jr. Carl and Carl were there last night and signed up for membership. I have not seen all the wood yet, but those two pieces looked darn nice. If they are any example of what the rest of the stock looks like, I’ll be very happy. He said he cut about 300 BF. I’ll keep you posted.

Cut!

He just cuts the logs for you. He is willing (unlike most mills) to take your locally harvested, residential trees and mill them to your specs. You have to dry it. My neighbor hooked me up with a tree service friend happy to give away logs – so long as you can transport them. He had three walnut logs he gave to me so I contacted Karl and he cut them up. My neighbor transported them from the yard in Bohemia to the “mill” in St James. It’s now up to me to get the planks back home. That will happen soon.
