Homemade Bandsaw Mill
 ✖  |
Here's a photo of my homemade bandsaw mill. It has removable fenders, wheels and lights and a cable lift jack that fits either end for easier setup. It has eight adjustable jack stands for stability and six adjustable bunks along with log holders and dogs positioned at 8, 12, and 16 ft. All the machined parts were made by George Solomon and Sons Machine Shop in Dryden, Ontario. The mill is powered by a 16 hp electric start Onan engine and has an electric clutch (from a hydraulic pump) that engages the band wheels. Other than that it's a simple push-pull outfit, with a cable lift for the head. (Garnet Trist, Oxdrift, Ontario)
