Our resaw✨

This machine takes large boards and cants and maximizes lumber yield by producing boards of specific thickness. After the head saw breaks down the log, the resaw will further process the lumber to the sizes that customers need!

Grading lumber 🪵

On the left is a video of our grading process back in 2020, but with a completely new mill came a new way of grading! On the right is how we grade our lumber now.

Which way would you want to grade?

Not every part of the log becomes lumber, and our chipper helps us utilize the scrap pieces to minimize waste.

Here’s what it does:

- Takes slabs, edges, bark, and scrap wood from the milling process
- Uses large spinning knives or blades to cut the wood into uniform chips
- Sends the chips to be used for things like:
* paper production
* mulch
* biomass fuel
* particleboard and wood products
