An eco-friendly way to reuse wood A portable sawmill is an easy way to use wood scraps from your property that would otherwise decay and turn those pieces into usable wood. In addition, loggers tend to leave everything they can't sell directly to commercial milling operations. My first experience with a sawmill was in the early 1980s, when I attended an old circular saw mill that operated on a flat belt that was driven by a tractor. A portable sawmill can be a useful tool, even if you don't have a wood fountain on your property.
For a wood source, as well as for a profitable business, a portable sawmill can be a key piece of equipment on your farm. From that experience, I felt “sawdust in my veins”, and when portable sawmills with band saws appeared, I seriously considered myself the possibility of buying one.
