Most Sawmill Owners Cut Posts The Wrong Way

*Sawmill Business | Cutting 6x6 Posts on a Portable Sawmill | Making Money Sawmilling* Sawmill business tips: cutting 6x6 posts can be more profitable than milling lumber. In this sawmilling video, I show how I cut 6x6 posts on my portable sawmill and explain why posts often make more money with less time, fuel, and handling. Today I got a last-minute order for four 6x6 posts—and had just ONE HOUR to get them cut before the customer arrived. In this video, I break down: ✅ Why posts can actually be MORE profitable than lumber ✅ How posts can sell for less per board foot but still generate more profit ✅ Why they're faster to cut with less fuel, less handling, and less wear on the sawmill ✅ The common mistake I see people make when cutting 6x6 posts ✅ Why I prefer smaller logs and straight box-heart (inter-pith) cuts to reduce warping and checking Sometimes the simplest cuts are the most profitable. I also share an update on what's coming next with the sawmill. The backstops are getting rebuilt stronger than ever, and there are more upgrades on the way.
