The Great Peterson Sawmill Demo Day is an opportunity for you to attend a live demonstration run by Peterson Sawmill owners and representatives in various locations in the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand!

It doesn't matter what location you're in, the event will be held on August 1st between 10am and 2pm in your time zone.

Each demonstration will be conducted by a Peterson Portable Sawmill owner on their property or milling site between 10am and 2pm. Visitors will be treated to a live demonstration where they will see how a Peterson swingblade sawmill is operated, learn how to get the best out of each log and discover owner's tips, tricks, site set up recommendations and more.

Peterson Portable Sawmills are the original designer of the portable swingblade sawmill and have been manufacturing and distributing worldwide for over 25 years. Although the company have a well-known reputation for quality products and service, the swingblade technology is still somewhat 'new' to sawmillers who are more familiar with band saw type portable mills.

A Peterson swingblade sawmill uses a single thin kerf circular blade which pivots 90 degrees from horizontal to vertical position. Each cut intersects at a precise point resulting in perfectly dimensional boards as the operator makes their way through the log. The blade can be sharpened on the mill and is long lasting with some customers claiming their blades have lasted over a decade.

"A Peterson mill can be operated even if you are new to sawmilling," Peterson's mill expert, Jamie Otter says. "You don't have to worry about hook and set angles, blade tension or speed, gullet depth, turning the log or how clean the log is. Our range is designed with ease-of-use in mind while retaining the quality Petersons are known for. That's why we organise The Great Peterson Sawmill Demo Day and other demos every year, because these efficient machines have to be seen to be believed."

Each demo location will feature at least one mill model in operation; from the company's latest offering the Junior Peterson, to the ultra-portable All Terrain Sawmill, the flagship Winch Production Frame or the ultimate in high production the Automated Swingblade Mill.
