Steam Powered Saw Mill at Antiques Powerland. - Great Oregon Steamup 2018

Back to Antiques Powerland to watch their 100 year old steam powered sawmill turn logs into lumber. The Pacific Northwest Logging Museum is part of the collection at Powerland Heritage Park

The crew runs the saw mill during the Great Oregon Steamup cutting large logs into lumber while also creating enough scrap wood to not only run the sawmill, but the entire show! All the tractors and steam engines help themselves to leftover wood.

There is still one steam powered sawmill in nearby Monroe, Oregon.Hull-Oakes Lumber Company, which is a Douglas-fir cutting mill.

The family-owned operation, founded in 1937 by Ralph Hull, specializes in cutting big timbers up to 85 feet long. There are parts of the mill that still run on steam, making it one of the last commercial steam-powered sawmills in the United States.

Hum... sounds like a future show....
