West Virginia State Farm Museum 
Sawmill

 


The farm museum's operating sawmill is basically a Frick model No. 00 Saw Mill.  
It was recently rebuilt to enhance the loading of logs and offloading of cut lumber.  It also has a custom built sawdust drag to remove sawdust from under the saw blade.
Here we see some volunteers operating the sawmill at one of the festivals.

 

 

 

Here we see the sawmill being driven by a 1924 Frick Center-Crank Portable steam engine.

The sawmill can also be operated from a diesel power unit or belted to an appropriate size tractor.
