In the recording, you can hear the planks knocking against a wooden stopper that determines their length. In the background, the saw and suction system create a deep, continuous hum. Like other saws, the pendulum saw emits a screeching, high-pitched sound when cutting through the wood. The saw’s movement is clearly audible from start to finish.
Since 1949, the name Lessmann has been synonymous with traditional box-making craftsmanship, based in Nördlingen, Bavaria. The workshop is now in its third generation of family ownership under Werner Lessmann.
They manufacture wooden boxes for all types of beverages and gift packaging. The company is dedicated to producing beer and wine boxes, as well as custom-made products and designs from sustainable wood.

The company’s main customers are beer, wine, and coffee distributors who require special packaging.
