The NorthForest NF-230A is a portable sawmill for woodlot owners who want boards from their own logs. Because pushing a head by hand all day wears you out, this portable sawmill uses a powered sawhead and an H020 digital setpoint. Sale price $8,995.
First, lock the log. Then set thickness on the H020 and let the head travel. Therefore you get repeatable boards instead of guessing the next cut. In addition, auto lube keeps the blade wet while you work.
Why this portable sawmill
The NF-230A is the powered mill in the NorthForest lineup. However, it is not a commercial mill line. Instead, it is built for a yard or a woodlot. As a result, you get auto height, powered forward and reverse, and quick-lock clamps without hiring a second person.
