I've been asked many times to sell lumber to people but I always come back to these things. On today's episode I'll go over the reasons I don't sell lumber from my sawmill for profit. It ultimately comes down to a numbers game for me as well as a time commitment. Don't get me wrong, making money with a sawmill is something I'd like to do and something I think is worthwhile. However, based on the research I've done, the numbers have to be just right in order to make consistent profit in a sawmill-rich climate like I have around my area. As you'll see in today's video, I'm comparing the board-foot price of various lumber sources including big-box stores and large sawmills and comparing them with the costs of purchasing saw logs and making lumber yourself. Although these numbers are rough, they give you an idea where the real money can be made with a sawmill, at least in my opinion. Glad all you folks are here and hope all is well out there. Happy sawing!
