Processing your logs into boards can dramatically increase their value ... if they come out, and stay, straight.

How you dry and stack your boards plays a big role in making straight lumber (and we have a whole episode dedicated to drying and stacking your lumber - https://youtu.be/6XXE1BcfEpA ).

But how you cut your boards also plays a big part. Trevor shares in his video his tip about using toe boards to level out the log before milling so that you cut parallel to the pith (center) of the the log.

This is just one episode from Norwood's "SAWMILL TECH TIPS" series. Join Trevor, Norwood Pro-Staff, as he shows you many tips and tricks that will help you get the most out of your portable sawmill.
