About Custom Sawmilling in Whitmore Lake, MI

Custom Sawmilling in Whitmore Lake, MI is a sawmill at 6559 Nollar Rd in Whitmore Lake, Michigan, in Washtenaw County. John Haling has been sawing Michigan hardwood there since 1998. The shop takes logs you bring in, or reclaimed urban logs it sources for you, and turns them into slabs, boards and beams. It saws walnut, maple, oak, cherry, elm, ash and other local hardwoods. The shop mills logs up to 60 inches in diameter on four sawmills. Most slabs are rough sawn at 2½ to 3 inches and finished at 1⅞ to 2½ inches. The same shop vacuum kiln dries the wood, then planes, sands and joints it, and it can build custom tables and countertops. The shop says it works with "never outsourcing a single step," so the whole job stays under one roof. Work is by appointment only, so call first and John will tell you what to bring and when. The shop is open 8 AM to 5 PM, Monday through Saturday. It works only from reclaimed or customer-supplied logs, with no commercial harvesting. This suits a landowner in or near Whitmore Lake who has a yard tree, a storm-felled hardwood or a street tree removal and wants it kept as usable lumber or a finished slab instead of being chipped or burned.
