I'm pretty sure I would be able to get some use out of them around the sawmill. Especially with the board return in place. 
With the right fulcrum and enough leverage, you can move the world!

thanks , I like the ideal about the wooden frames , I think I might have to buy them , wants 400 for three of them , how does that sound on price ? 10 feet long .

I have paid between $7.50 and $10 / foot, but I was not in a hurry for them and passed on plenty more that were higher priced.

400 for 30' is a bit high 
They do look heavy duty I like the fixed rollers best they don't pop out if a board hits them wrong .
There easy too take out and oil them up.
If you do look at them make sure the springs aren't jammed up and there easy to remove. So you can maintenance them.

The rollers are to light for heavy cants or ties. I had roll cases similar to that. The BBC rolls eventually got dented so bad they hardly worked.

I got 24 feet of roller table with 2 inch rollers every 3 inches for $50 bucks.
This is the first table I built with the rollers spaced every 24 inches. I am planning to build a couple of short tables but haven't got there yet as the need for them in not real pressing.
