HM126
I’ve had the pleasure of purchasing a woodland mill this summer, with a bit of time my 16 year old son and I were able to put it all together with ease, it was a bit challenging at first to keep the blades on the band wheel but quickly realized that I had put too much soap in the tank and had too much flow on to the blade. After correcting this I was able to mill enough wood to build a 20x 40 ft storage barn. The mill worked like a charm. The only thing I would suggest is getting a small jack to level the logs.

I purchased my HM126 in the summer of 2018 to begin milling wood for my barn, and eventually my retirement home in the foothills of Denver. I'm extremely satisfied with my HM126. It's not often that you buy something and have it completely meet and exceed your expectations. I added the rail extension kit onto my original purchase and was very glad I did, as I need all of it for most of my trees. I didn't however add the 10 pack of sawblades and wished I had, not realizing that one blade gets me about a full day of sawing on my Douglas Fir before it's just too dull to continue. I've learned by trial and error, and I'm sure this is true of all bandsaw mills, that the blades must be sharp to produce a nice even level cut. With a sharp blade the cuts are great. One of the welds broke on one of my log dogs, but not for any fault of Woodland Mills, rather it was my fault for dropping a log on it. A quick weld got it going again. I'm finding that the head moves smoothly and evenly down the track. It's plenty heavy to stay stable. Same with the rail system. It's heavy gauge and with the cross beams locking it togehter it forms a solid and rigid base that withstands a lot of punishment. My goal in the spring is to mill out some nice big timbers to put under the rails and bolt the levelers to them. Right now everything is sitting on cinder blocks which is ok, but I've had some wandering of the whole rail system due to bumps by the tractor and vibration, although, so far it doesn't seem to have affected the cuts. I love this saw! Not only does is it producing beautiful timbers and boards, it's saving me a ton of money!

It is a nice little saw mill. It is accurate and efficient. It allows us to make specialty items for our log home products.

I like it and have recommended woodland mills to a few others that are considering buying a portable mill.

When I purchased the HM126 I had zero experience with a woodmill. I did a ton of research and it seemed that the Woodlands Mill was going to be user friendly. Ordering was super easy and the ladies asssited me in getting everything squared away. My mill arrived and I’m not gonna lie I was a little weary about all the pieces (I ordered the extra bed section). However everything went together pretty easily. I figured there was going to be a big learning curve to start milling. Everything seem to go pretty well and after a few logs I got it down and was moving through them quickly. I do wish I had an extra lock for the middle of my deck. Otherwise everything is pretty good. Actually I would update/upgrade the magnetic rulers. The magnets are good. The face rips easily. Probably my only compliant.

So simple to use. The wood that I have cut is so beautiful.

This mill was easy to put together and very easy to use. I have cut alot of wood in the 6 months I've had it. It paid for itself in the first 2 months
