The Great Oak Table: Jerry Andrada’s milling account, assembled sections, an unverified age claim, and the records needed to assess a similar project.
Our sawmilling case studies describe particular timber projects, from farm builds to large trees and storm-damaged material. Explore the jobs below to see the intended use, processing choices and reported outcome.
These sawmilling case studies provide field experience. They do not establish typical savings, recovery rates or national trends. For example, a reported timber quotation is different from a verified saving after all processing costs.
Use the accounts alongside our tree-to-timber guides when planning your own project. Then explore contract milling or discuss your logs and intended products with us.
