My folks are drying out some doug-fir lumber that they sawed up on their small-scale mill (all from trees sustainably thinned out from a crowded forest).

@adam Wow. Very tidy milling job. So they do this for a living?

@eugeneparnell Nope, it's just something they set up for making their own lumber. It started out with a rig made from a chainsaw and then grew from there to a full on mill.
