How To Support And Maintain Your Portable Sawmill

As a new sawyer, you may not know this, but there are several things that you can do to increase your portable sawmill production.  In fact, learning to support and maintain your portable sawmill properly is key, if you want to make a profit as a sawyer.  Luckily, it's not that difficult to do, once you know how.

First of all, every good sawmill needs a good blade.  One of the best types of blades is the Cook's Super Sharp blade because it is thin, heavy duty and built to last.  Even so, though, you also will need to replace your saw blades on a regular basis, especially if you are using your portable sawmill non-stop all day long 5 to 7 days per week.  Even the best blades don't last forever.

Nevertheless, you can improve upon the life of your portable sawmill blades by keeping them flat, sharp and set properly.  So, the first thing you should do is invest in tools that will help you flatten, sharpen and set your saw blades.  Luckily, you can find a complete assortment of those tools at the Cook's Saw website.

Next, you need to make sure that your band saw is aligned properly.  You can great blades, such as the Cook's Super Sharp blades, and a great portable sawmill, but it won't do you any good unless that sawmill is set up correctly.  That means making sure that the band secures the saw head properly.  Would you like to learn some easy ways to do that?  If so, click here to visit Cook's and find out.
