The History and Evolution of Sawmills: From Hand-Cutting to Advanced Technology

A sawmill, also known as a sawbill, is a place where logs are cut into lumber using a sawmill. The term "sawbill" is derived from the fact that the original method of cutting logs involved a bill or a blade attached to a handle, which was used to make the cuts.

In modern times, sawmills use more advanced technology and machinery to cut and process logs, but the name "sawbill" has stuck as a colloquialism for a sawmill. Sawmills are an important part of the forest products industry, as they provide the raw material for many wood products, such as lumber, plywood, and paper.
