I've been lusting after a sawmill for a while and finally decided it was time. After much research and reading a ton of reviews I went with the Woodland Mills HM126. This video shows the sawmill assembly, first cuts, and the start of one of our big homesteading projects I had in mind when I bought the mill. So far I've got a little over 20 hours on the mill. I've sawn mostly ponderosa pine and western red cedar. I was a little skeptical of the height adjustment mechanism at first but it works just as well as the more expensive mills I've used in the past. This is on of the less expensive home lumber mills on the market but it's built very well and does everything I need it to.
