Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at MorgansSawmill@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

How much do you charge for custom milling services?

For onsite milling there is a $50 setup fee and the cost for milling is $100 per hour, with a two hour minimum.

There is no setup charge or hourly minimum if the logs are brought to me at my location in Rockford Michigan to be milled, I have equipment to unload and load your trailer at my site if needed.

What forms of payment does Morgan’s Custom Sawmill accept?

Cash, Check, Zelle or Venmo. Payment is due in-full the day of milling. Sorry I do not accept credit cards or debt cards.

What’s included with onsite milling service?

TimberKing 2000 computerized fully hydraulic sawmill, cant hooks, and fuel. My rate assumes you or someone you have hired will be present for the duration to stack lumber. I do not stop the mill to move/stack lumber. I can provide labor for an additional fee.

How long will it take to mill my logs?

Usually 2-5 logs/hour depending on: size, position of logs, cuts desired, and cleanliness of the logs. All branches should be trimmed flush prior to my arrival. Dirty logs dull blades quickly which results in slower cutting and more down time while changing blades. Dirt can be removed with a wire brush or power washer prior to my arrival.

Do you bill for drive time?

Yes, but only to locations more than 30 minutes from my location in Rockford MI.

What happens if the blade hits a foreign object?

Nails, screws, and stones can break a blade and you will be billed at $30 per blade. Excessively dirty logs may also incur blade charges

Do you provide heavy equipment onsite to move my logs ?

No. I can however, roll them with a cant hook. A tractor (if you have one) with forks or grapple greatly speeds up the log loading/lumber moving process. If there is a large quantity of logs, or you plan to make beams/thick slabs, renting a machine like a mini skid steer can make milling go much faster.

How big of a log can the mill cut?

Mill capacity is 32”diameter x 19ft long. It is a fully hydraulic, computerized sawmill so turning logs, leveling logs, and clamping logs, is all performed by the machine.

Will your mill fit on my site?

Contact me to request a copy of my Sawmill Area Requirements document or download the document below. This provides a detailed picture of the space and site conditions required for on-site milling.

How should I stack my lumber for drying?

The big box stores sell 1x2 furring strips in bundles that make great “stickers” for drying lumber. Any narrow strips ripped on a table saw will work as well. Stickers should be placed every couple feet between layers of lumber to allow air to flow through. Lumber should be stacked off the ground a few inches to allow airflow as well. 4x4’s or concrete blocks make a good base for stacking.

Do you offer kiln drying services?

No I do not but I work closely with Arbor Custom Kilns located in Greenville MI 616-401-2992
