About MakerForge

I run a sawmill and a wood shop in Frankston, Texas.

The sawmill

I saw logs on a Wood-Mizer LT40 Super Hydraulic. I cut slabs and lumber from local logs, and I do custom sawing: bring me your logs and I'll saw them to the thickness and width you need.

The wood shop

In the shop I joint, plane and rip lumber to order, so you can get boards ready to use instead of rough-sawn. I also build custom woodwork to order: benches, tabletops and mantels.

Pickup

Pickup is local, at the sawmill in Frankston or a meetup in Tyler. Text or email me with what you need and I'll get back to you with a quote.
