About sawyerjoez
SawyerJoez is a sawmill business in Chapman, Kansas, run as a "3-generation father & son company" that mills hardwood logs. It serves Dickinson County, with sawmill locations in Kansas and Missouri, and the owners note they are "Veteran owned and operated." The work here is custom milling rather than standing timber purchase: cutting black walnut, hickory, sycamore, oak, ash, and hackberry logs into lumber, slabs, and mantles to order, plus kiln drying and slab flattening. You can bring your own logs to either mill, or they will come to a location of your choice. On-site cutting is billed at $125 an hour with a 6 hour minimum, and if the mill hits metal while cutting, a $40 surcharge is added for each occurrence. Logs brought to the Chapman location run $85 an hour with a 1 hour minimum, while the Missouri mill in Mexico charges $70 an hour with a 2 hour minimum. Cutting speed depends on how clean the logs are, running roughly 250 board feet an hour on the larger portable mill. This fits a landowner who already has logs down, or standing trees they plan to fell themselves, and wants someone to turn those logs into usable lumber, slabs, or custom pieces rather than someone to buy and harvest standing timber.
