Selling Timber in Oakland County, MI

Armstrong Millworks, Inc. is a mill in Highland, Michigan that works wood, not timber sales out of the woods. They take in rough sawn stock and turn it into milled and shaped wood products, working with "all domestic hardwoods, as well as around 20 exotic woods." What they do is finishing and shaping work: jointing, planing, sanding, resawing, surface jointing, and routing, dados, and rabets. They also make their own moldings in-house, with over 1600 molding patterns available, and will have knives made to match an existing molding if you need something they don't stock. They keep a stock of cuts and shorts left over from custom jobs for sale as well. Species on hand have included 4/4 Bolivian Rosewood, 4/4 Honduras Rosewood, Bocote, 4/4 and 8/4 Sapele, and turning stock like Goncalo Alves, Black Palm, Red Palm, and Bloodwood. They serve Oakland County. They accept cash or check only, no cards. The family has run this mill since 1948, and it's now in its fourth generation. This fits a landowner who already has lumber or slabs milled and wants it planed, sanded, resawn, or shaped into custom moldings, rather than someone looking to sell standing timber or have trees logged.

Michigan Rustic Woodlands is a sawmill, lumber yard, and woodshop in Davisburg, Michigan. They started the business in 2021 and describe themselves as a family-owned and operated outfit, with their own team milling everything in-house. If you've got logs sitting on your property, this is who you'd call to turn them into something usable. They say "we can mill your logs into whatever Lumber or Live Edge wood products you desire," and they also offer kiln drying so the wood is ready to work with, not just cut. Pickup and delivery of logs or lumber is available for an added fee, based on volume and location, and they bring a log trailer with a crane to move heavier logs onto the mill. Before milling, they "powerwash each log before it goes on our mill" to keep dirt and grit from dulling the blade. Species they handle include walnut, soft and hard maple, curly maple, white oak, red oak, hickory, cedar, elm, cherry, and poplar. They're licensed and insured, and they serve Oakland County and the surrounding area. Alongside milling, they also do woodworking and some land clearing or site work. This fits a landowner who already has logs down, or trees coming down, and wants them milled into lumber or slabs rather than sold standing. It's less suited to someone looking to sell timber off the stump, more for someone who wants their own wood turned into boards, mantels, or furniture.
