Have you always wanted to mill your lumber but never had the opportunity to operate a sawmill? Now’s your chance with the affordable, compact, and easy-to-use Wood-Mizer LX30 hobby sawmill. Whether you are new to sawmilling or looking for a versatile tool for occasional use, the LX30 is perfect for hobbyists. Learning sawing has never been so affordable – just load the log, position it on the bed, and start cutting! 

 

A Universal Sawmill for Every Hobbyist

The Wood-Mizer LX30 is designed to meet the diverse needs of DIY enthusiasts, whether you’re sawmilling on a farm, cleaning up fallen trees from the orchard, or testing out your skills in the workshop. It’s perfect for beginners or anyone who cuts wood occasionally, with no need for advanced skills. The LX30’s compact size and simple mechanical construction make it ideal for experimenting with woodcutting projects, allowing you to focus on creativity without worrying about making mistakes. Just start the engine and get cutting!

Compact, Yet Capable

Despite its compact size, the LX30 handles large logs well. It can accommodate logs up to 56 cm in diameter and 3.3 m in length, making it perfect for various cutting projects. The sawhead, built of durable bent angle steel, moves smoothly along the standard 3-section bed on four stable rollers. The LX30 can be extended for longer logs with additional bed sections, giving you even more flexibility. 

 

Simple Log Loading and Clamping

The LX30 is easy to assemble. The bed is mounted onto timber runners that keep the sawmill stationary during operation. It is positioned low to the ground for easy log loading. The bed features two thick steel rails and five cross-sections. Once the log is loaded on the bed, position it against two adjustable side supports and secure it with the central clamp. Now you’re ready to start sawing!

Effortless Sawmilling at Your Fingertips

Choose the 9.5 HP gas engine or the 3 kW electric motor to power your LX30. These reliable engines ensure smooth and consistent blade movement through the wood.  Operating the LX30 is intuitive and straightforward – start the engine, lower the sawhead with the crank, check the position with the built-in scale, open the lubrication valve, and push the bar to begin cutting. After making your cut, raise the sawhead and return to the starting position – congratulations, you’ve just milled your first slab!

 

Maximize Your Timber Yield

For the best cutting performance, we recommend using genuine Wood-Mizer blades. The LX30 is compatible with the thin, 32 mm wide, and 3200 mm long blades, which allow you to yield more valuable timber from every log and minimize sawdust production. Keep your blades in top shape with Wood-Mizer’s sharpening tools for longer-lasting, precise cuts.
