Selling Timber in Vilas County, WI

Lars Woodcraft & Sawmill is a woodworking shop and sawmill at 7293 Birchwood Drive in St. Germain, Wisconsin. Geoff "Lars" Larson runs it. He is a third-generation woodcraftsman with more than forty years of turning Wisconsin timber into furniture, live edge slabs, and one-of-a-kind pieces. The shop serves Minocqua, Eagle River, and St. Germain, and its listed county is Vilas. The sawmill cuts custom live edge or dimensional lumber at its shed in St. Germain, up to 16 feet long and 24 inches in diameter. You can bring your own logs, or the shop will haul them from your land to its shed. Portable sawmilling is also available at your location, with a quote on request. Slab finishing includes planing up to 20 inches wide and sanding up to 44 inches wide. The species it works with are Wisconsin timber, and the shop calls its work "real Wisconsin wood." The shop also builds ready-made pieces, custom commissions such as live edge mantles and full buildouts for a home or cabin, all made to your exact dimensions. It suits a landowner who has logs down on their own land and wants them sawn into slabs or lumber close to home, or who wants the finished furniture or cabin work made from that wood.

Pukall Lumber Co. is a sawmill and building supply business in Arbor Vitae, Wisconsin, with other locations in Manitowish Waters and Minocqua. Fred Pukall brought a portable sawmill to the Lakeland area in 1937, and the mill has been running since. They saw mostly red and white pine logs into dimension lumber, and also turn out tongue-and-groove paneling, wood sidings, moldings, and log siding. Their logs come mainly from northern Wisconsin's private, state, and federal forests, from woodlands marked for selective harvesting and timber stand improvement. They describe their operation as "one of the largest pine lumber mills in the state," producing around 12 million board feet of lumber a year. On the building supply side, they offer next day delivery on most items, custom specialty manufacturing at the sawmill, blade sharpening, power tool repair, estimating and take-offs, and re-keying of locks and key cutting at the Minocqua store. They serve Vilas County. This isn't a timber buying outfit and there's no tract size or sale process spelled out on their pages. What they are is a long-running mill that takes logs in and turns out pine lumber and specialty wood products for builders and homeowners. A landowner whose main interest is milled pine lumber, siding, or custom wood products, rather than someone looking for a timber sale handled start to finish, is who this fits.
