About Wane+Flitch
Wane+Flitch is an urban sawmill and woodshop at 701 E 72nd St in Tacoma, Pierce County. It mills salvaged logs into live edge slabs and dimensional lumber, dries them in a vacuum kiln, and surfaces rough slabs flat. It has operated since January 2015. The business describes its wood as "salvaged and never poached." The milling is done on site, and milling is billed at $150 an hour with a four-hour minimum. Stacking with drying stickers costs extra, and so do debris strikes, because nails and bullets in a log can damage the saw. Kiln drying runs on a queue that can take 4 to 8 weeks before a load starts. It acquires salvaged logs from homeowners, tree services and land clearings across Western Washington. Each tree is approved first on quality, demand and size. After approval, the seller must arrange transport to the shop for a scheduled drop-off. The business does not haul logs or cut trees, though it can refer you to tree companies it has worked with before. Wane+Flitch suits a Pierce County landowner with a salvaged or cleared hardwood log, such as walnut, oak or maple, who wants slabs rather than firewood and can get the log to Tacoma on a set date.
