Title: Log Milling in Western Wisconsin
Post by: Ramen Head on August 13, 2019, 10:14:22 PM
I had severe damage from mid July tornados and had numerous very old red old oak trees uprooted.  I retained the large red oak trunk sections in 10' to 12' lengths.  Anyone have recommendations for a nearby quality sawmill in the Milltown/Luck, WI area who could mill these trees?  I have a large pole barn, next to the stack of tree trunks, where I could passively store and dry the stacked and stickered boards.  Obviously the "logs" will require large machinery to handle.  Recommendations appreciated!

Welcome to the Forum! A quick check of the Wood-Mizer website under "Find a Local Sawyer", lists sawyers throughout Wisconsin, Spooner might be closest to you. Though some further away may be willing to travel for a full day of sawing.
