Timely post. Just starting to look into a portable sawmill. Initially, I need a couple of thousand board feet of 1x6 RS for my first paddock and got local prices at .60/bd ft. Then I'll need a lot more after that, plus posts. I've got about 40 acres of wood to pick the stock out of. On Monday, I mentioned the idea of me cutting my own to the missus and I didn't even finish the sentence before I heard "NO". Everytime I tried to finish, I'd hear "NO". All "NO" means to me is that she won't give immediate, unconditional approval and let me blindly do what I want. I'll have to do a capital investment analysis to PROVE that it will be worth it. (Of course, I discount my labor rate by a percentage that is associated with the joy of learning a new skill, having a new toy, etc.) Thanks for the info. Harbor Freight quality may be ok for what I plan to do.
