Last August I purchased a mill from Norwood. Best thing since sliced bread!!!!! Started cutting lumber in September for my cottage. Built a 24x32 cottage with 17-foot high cathedral ceiling. The mill paid for itself by now.
Rick Montreuil, Ontario
The LumberMate 2000 is the best sawmill I have ever used.
Michael Bailey,
Those (Goldline Premium) blades are the best blades Ive ever used. I am really impressed!!!! They are sharp right out of the box and they stay sharp longer than any other blade Ive used (and Ive tried just about all the other brand names).
Allan Porter
The SkidMate works absolutely great and is more maneuverable than expected.
Ross Allen and Phillip Grant, Nova Scotia
The LumberMate has made me nothing but money quality, quality lumber.
John Brush, Montana
The LumberMate 2000 is one of the simplest, easy to maintain pieces of equipment or tool that I have ever seen. You would be wasting your time, and probably more money, to even consider any other mill in this price range. Really, for the money, it is as near perfect a machine as I could imagine. I have nothing to gain by saying this it is just my honest opinion.
Jerry Moore, Kentucky
I got 1 blade with my LumberMate from Norwood and its the best blade Ive ever had. I bought a bunch from Wood-Mizer, they are good blades too but they dull faster and I cant always count on them to cut smooth. I started with 15 Mizer blades and one Norwood. I use them all and then sharpen them and now I have 6 Mizer blades left and still have the 1 Norwood blade. The next box of blades Im buying is definitely from Norwood!
Jason Reay, Ontario
I LOVE MY MILL!
Pat Killian, New York
I used the LumberMate to cut all the timbers and sheathing for a timberframe. It worked like a charm. Good product!
