if you go to harbor freights website it says unavailable when you type in saw mill

Linn lumber mill, interesting. Catch moles for the dad of the fellow that builds them. Never seen one work but they look very well built.

What are your setups to get the logs up onto the mill? I use the forks on the tractor. Use a cant hook to roll them over to change sides when sawing. I just keep the tractor next to it to throw slabs and/or good boards onto. Its a workout for one old man, and if he ain't old when he starts he will be at the end of the day. I've not ran mine since I had the covid last year, but intend to when we get some cool weather.

If I were only 20 years younger!!! I was over 70 when I bought mine. Timberking 1220. No hydraulics; plain ol' grunt labor. I don't set no speed records, but, make decent lumber.

I used to run a Lucas circle saw mill. Cut logs up to 70” with it. I could cut between 1300-1500 bf a day by myself. Best I did in a day with two of my sons helping was 8500 bf.
