  • The front of the old mill where the processed wood would have come out
  • The front of the mill where the logs would be brought into the mill
  • The front of the mill where the logs would be brought into the mill
  • The back of the mill with some old boards leaning up against it. The small addition on the left coming out from the building didn't seem to have a door either from inside or outside of the mill
  • Barrels filled with concrete were used as supports for the building
  • An old water pipe leading to the mill
  • This log was mostly squared up before the mill stopped being used
  • Another log ready for processing. Old pieces of railroad track were used to bring the logs into the mill on
  • Looking out from the mill where the logs would have come in
  • A large circular blade was used to saw the logs
  • The cutting blade and where the log would be held while being cut
  • The teeth on the saw
  • A closer look at the saw teeth
  • Part of the drive system for the saw. It would seem that the old belts were removed or rotted away
  • A little closer look at the drive system
  • Inside the mill. Newer 4x4 posts have been added as supports since the mill has been used
  • The sled that the log would be held onto while moving back and forth so the saw could cut through it
  • The sled was moved back and forth by a steel cable on some pulleys. The leaves are covering up most of this setup now
  • A closer look at the part of the sled that would hold the log
  • More gears and settings on the sled
