About First Cut Custom Sawn Lumber: Home

First Cut Custom Sawn Lumber: Home is a portable sawmill service in Highland, Illinois, run by Bert Elliott as the sawyer. The work covers Southwestern Illinois and Southeastern Missouri. The mill comes to your location, so the logs are sawn on your own ground. Bert brings the mill best suited to each job. Two Wood-Mizer mills are listed. The LT40HD Wide takes logs up to 36 inches across and 21 feet long and cuts up to 34 inches wide. The LT30 takes logs up to 32 inches across and 16 feet long and cuts up to 28 inches wide. Sawing is by appointment only, set to each customer's needs. The sawing goes back to 1985, when Bert's father bought a portable LT30 manual Wood-Mizer. Bert helped him for years, built his own skills as a sawyer, and came to understand how different species cut. The lumber comes back "cut to your exact specifications." This suits a landowner in Southwestern Illinois or Southeastern Missouri who has logs lying on their own property and wants them sawn into lumber right there, to their own dimensions, by a sawyer raised on this work.
