"It’s hard to find something that is so easy to run that requires so few people. I think it’s an exceptional mill. It’s definitely a lot less labor-intensive than my old mill. In the time that you would typically be bringing back the headrig for another pass, with this sawmill you are already setting up for your next cut on the way back."

"Amazing simplicity in operation. Having never run a mill of any kind, in a matter of minutes I was cutting boards with no fear of damage to the mill. Whether you’re a long time sawyer or a first time user the Davco deserves serious consideration for your present and future logging endeavors. I know I will."
