Diversifying Your Portable Sawmill Business

Owning a portable sawmill business can be tricky, especially in today's tough economic times.  Can you really get by on cutting just pallet stock?  Of course not!  That's why diversifying your portable sawmill business is so important, but exactly how do you do that?

Well, nobody understands diversifying the portable sawmill industry better than Alvin King.  He owns a portable sawmill business and he knows that business changes with the economic times, and even with the time of year.  That's why he has diversified his own portable sawmill business in many different ways since he started out.

Alvin began his business by using a manual mill to cut pallet stock.  Well, he still cuts pallet stock, but he uses a hydraulic mill from Cook's Saw to do it.  Not only that, but he also cuts cants, resells certain lumber without cutting it, does custom cuts and does his own in-house blade flattening, setting and sharpening.

There are several great things about having a diverse portable sawmill business, as Alvin knows.  One of those things is that you can keep up with the changing times.  Another is that you'll never be bored.  There's always something new and interesting to do at Alvin's mill.

What Alvin likes the most since he diversified his portable sawmill business, though, is that he has top-notch equipment, which is all provided by the folks at Cook's Saw.  So, do you want to be a diverse sawyer like Alvin?  If so, visit www.cookssaw.com for some great equipment and tips.
