About Live Edge Pricing and Arizona Native Wood Types
Live Edge Pricing and Arizona Native Wood Types is a sawmill and workshop in the Santa Rita Mountains of Southern Arizona. It works with native Arizona woods: mesquite, olive, alligator juniper, walnut and African sumac. The owner, Gary Bailey, who goes by Beetle, is a retired Air Force pilot who flew the RF-4C and F-4E. For a landowner, the main work is milling your own logs. The mill runs basic sawmill services on logs you bring, along with sawmill setup, slabbing and chainsaw work. It can handle logs up to 1,200 pounds, 11 feet long and 30 inches across, with a cut up to 22 inches. The first hour of handling and milling is $100, including the first saw blade, and each extra hour is $75. Chainsaw work is $35 an hour with a $10 minimum. Veterans, friends and family get discounts. The mill also sells logs and slabs. Its walnut comes from trees taken off the Anza Trail, and all proceeds from logs and slabs go to a 501C charity that helps keep the trail open. On its pages, the advice is "Often it's best to purchase/harvest an entire Log," since you get several slabs to choose from, and some slabs can be used as payment. This one suits a landowner in Southern Arizona who has a felled mesquite, olive, juniper, walnut or sumac log and wants it sawn into slabs. From mesquitebeetlemill.com, read 10 November 2026.
