The LT40 Super Hydraulic under the shed
Our mill

Sawn on our Wood-Mizer LT40

Every slab starts as a local East Texas log, many of them storm-downed, sawn on our Wood-Mizer LT40 Super Hydraulic in Frankston. We air-dry on site, then joint, plane and rip to order in our wood shop. Slabs are jointer/planer flattened, never CNC.
