Pics of the sawmill please - and some more pics! 1000 tonne a day is incredible! 

 

I will check what I can and can't photograph and post what I can. The site is 51 acres, about 200,000 cubic metres per annum finished timber. The mad thing is that they only take pine and spruce, 3 to 4.9m long and 12-18cm diameter, top end. There is so much supply here that they can be that specific. 

 

My line deals with destickering and resawing. I've been averaging 550-580 cubic metres a week through my machine. I spend my days keeping quite busy and listening to an awful lot of podcasts and Radio 4. Almost everything largely automated, but timber being timber, stuff goes wrong and timber gets jammed, twisted, breaks etc and human intervention is required.
