About Drumlin Woodworks

Drumlin Woodworks is a sawmill and custom woodworking shop in Deerfield, Wisconsin, run by Rich and his partner Kelli on her family farm. They mill logs into lumber and slabs, dry it in a vacuum kiln, and turn it into custom furniture, all under one roof a short drive from Madison's east side. The sawmill itself is a portable TimberKing 2000 that handles logs up to 36 inches across and 20 feet long. For anything bigger, they bring out an Alaskan chainsaw mill that can take logs up to 70 inches, though it runs slower. You can haul your logs to their shop in Deerfield, or if you've got enough logs and the room, they'll bring the mill to you. They also offer planing, flattening, and straight-line ripping on slabs and lumber. Species they've worked with include walnut, oak, maple, cherry, Siberian elm, and silver maple. They are plain about one limit: "we do not offer tree cutting or removal services," so this is for logs already down, not standing timber. Rich has been building with wood for "more than 30 years," and the shop grew out of a simple idea to mill and dry locally sourced logs for craftsmen and custom projects. They started in 2023 when Rich and Kelli bought her family farm and turned an old shed into the workshop. They serve Dane County. This fits a landowner in Dane County who already has logs on the ground, whether from a storm, a clearing job, or a few trees taken down, and wants them sawn, dried, and maybe turned into a finished piece rather than sold as standing timber.
