looking for portable sawmill in Wendell area

I am looking for some one to come saw up some logs. I am working with the museum of history and we need to do some shots of logs being cut into boards. The trees that they want to use are just outside of Wendell. I don't know how big the logs are. I just know that we have access to a backhoe to move them around.

Who would Y'all suggest?

Thanks,

Jerome Bias

Re: looking for portable sawmill in Wendell area

Jerome, I moved your post to the Where Can I Find, Buy or Sell forum. It's not really a custom project that your looking for, mainly a service, and this is a better place for that. I would also recommend Jack in Rolesville as he probably the closest to the logs.

Re: looking for portable sawmill in Wendell area

Jerome: I just heard a great talk by a local sawyer at the last TWA meeting. His hame is Jeff and he is on this site (jeff@ncwoodworker.net). I think his last name is Mills (?). Look through the members under "Jeff" *( I think its the 18th page of listings!).

Re: looking for portable sawmill in Wendell area

It has improved considerably. Actually, it was my hip. I was skipping stones on a beach in Alaska, and the hip popped out of its socket, then back in. Very painful. I am still feeling twinges on it if I bend my leg a funny way.
