David & Anne Carter are expanding -- and in order to build the addition to their lodge, they bought a sawmill. All the lumber for the construction has been logged off their own land, and the crew has been milling it into 12" x 12" timbers for the new timberframe construction.
The above YouTube video is the first log being milled on the portable sawmill, a 25' long tree for the carrying beam.
Check out the huge Basswood tree post in the center! We'll add more photos as the addition progresses, so be sure to check back!
