Paul Bunyan Saw Mill
About Paul Bunyan Saw Mill
Paul Bunyan Saw Mill is a mobile sawmill based in Nevada County, California, and it works across the surrounding area. The mill is mounted on a trailer and brought to your land, so the logs don't have to be hauled anywhere. In their words, "We bring the mill to you." A job starts with a site visit, which costs $40. The crew checks that the trailer and equipment can reach your property, looks over your logs, and talks through any site preparation before milling begins. The mill then cuts your logs to the size you want, whether that's beams, slabs, or boards, up to 34 inches wide and 21 feet long. On average they process 7 to 10 logs a day. The lumber is stacked so it cures properly and dries straight. Work is billed at $175 an hour with a 4-hour minimum booking. Jobs more than 30 minutes outside Nevada City carry a travel fee at the hourly rate, round trip. Logs must be free of nails, screws, fencing, or other metal, since a damaged blade costs $45 to replace. Sawdust, bark, and mill ends are not cleaned up. The work draws on years of hands-on woodworking know-how, and the business focuses on salvaging wood that has already come down on your land. Its own description puts it this way: "instead of firewood." It suits a landowner in Nevada County with logs already lying on the property who wants usable lumber from them and would rather not haul heavy logs to a mill.
