WoodMizer LT15 Wide sawmill slabbing a 36” dia Redwood log, recovered Tubbs Wildfire, Santa Rosa CA. Slabbing a 36" diameter Redwood log with our WoodMizer LT15 Wide head sawmill that has been salvaged from the 2017 Tubbs Wildfire in Santa Rosa CA. This was such a destructive fire, we are glad that we are able to do our part helping our customers here in California recover and give new life to some of the trees from the wildfire.
This log was about 8" too long for for the bed of the sawmill so we cut most of the way through on each slab and then used our skidsteer to lift each slab up and break the last 8" or so free. We did this because our customer did not want to shorten the log in this case and asked if we could mill it full length, so we did.
The slabs we milled turned out beautiful and will be used to build a very large live edge table and bench set. If we are able to get video of the finished items we will get them posted here to our KZfaq channel.
Whether you are running a sawmill on your homestead, farm, ranch or as a business, it is so rewarding to be able to recover and salvage urban logs and process them into usable things such as tables & chairs or any number of other custom wood furniture pieces!
Slabbing, cookie cuts, or dimensional lumber... Small scale custom sawmills can be so useful in so many ways!!! And we are happy to share our adventures in saw milling and custom woodworking here with you all. We made this video to show that there are lots of uses for a Wood-Mizer Sawmill other than just sawing lumber. We currently have a WoodMizer LT15 Wide sawmill, a WoodMizer LT40 Super Hydraulic, a Lucas 10/30 Swing mill with slabber and planer and also a Lucas DSM23 Dedicated Slabber.
