The Portable Band Sawmill and Selective Logging in Second-Growth Loblolly Pine

Key Points

The portable band sawmill effectively converts small timber into lumber, minimizing waste.
Cost data highlights the efficiency of converting logs from various small diameter trees with adaptable technology.
The sawmill supports selective logging as part of a broader sustained-yield management plan to preserve forest ecosystems.
Implementing this tool may enhance timber profitability while promoting responsible forestry practices.

Abstract

Abstract The portable band sawmill may solve the problem of converting small timber into lumber at small cost and with low waste. The author gives here the essential cost data from a study of sawing, with such a mill, logs from trees of various small diameters and briefly discusses its adaptability to a sustained-yield management plan.
